A small, honest comedy about passion, movies and love, so human that it leaves a bittersweet aftertaste that may soften the laughter and provoke some reflection. Full Review

It works, but just barely (no pun intended, considering all the nudity). Full Review

An amiable, if not exactly novel, Spanish farce

Rating: 2.5/4 -- The narrative eventually runs out of steam. But writer-director Pablo Berger maintains a lighthearted tone. Full Review

Rating: 4/4 -- A bawdy sitcom which careens back and forth between the ridiculous and the sublime. Full Review

Rating: B -- The humor is mostly low-key, with writer/director Pablo Berger doing little to draw attention to his film's highly unusual premise. Full Review

The film ranges from wacky and hilarious to downright romantic, yet Berger manages to shift tone smoothly and expertly. He's aided by top performances from his leads. Full Review

Product Description:

Tired of selling encyclopedias, Alfredo (Javier Cámera) and his wife Carmen (Candela Peña) agree to make adult videos for secret distribution in Scandinavian countries. They meet with unexpected success--but as Alfredo becomes more and more ambitious, longing for the chance to direct "real" films, his newly minted sex-symbol wife wants only to have a child and settle down. This winning comedy from first-time director Pablo Berger boasts a strong cast and engaging characters, and was a hit on the festival circuit on its release in 2004.
