Almodovar: The Skin I Live In

From the New York Film Festival, David D’Arcy reviews The Skin I live In, the latest camp-horror tale from Pedro Almodovar. Antonio Banderas plays a plastic surgeon, teaming up with Almodovar for the first time in almost 20 years. Beware of a villain with a scalpel in his hand, and a Titian nude on his wall.

Editor’s Note: Antonio Banderas stars in the movie. David D’Arcy’s critical comparison is to Jeremy Irons.
