Movie Review -- Volver
Went to see "Volver" last night -- good little art-house film. It's about a mother who's not just a mother, two fathers who are not fathers, and a ghost who's not a ghost. Well plotted, acted, and directed well enough to keep one interested all the way through. I can't decide if it's a drama, a mystery, or a comedy. And guys, just in case you think this is just a chick flick just 'cause there aren't any car chases or fight scenes, the director throws in a couple of rich visual tableaus. Of course, he's going to make you squirm emotionally for them first.Labels: movie review, penelope cruz, volver

... and by rich visual tableaus, you mean.... racks.
Um, yeah. Kind of hard to avoid the way he just lays them out for supper, so to speak.
I it my imagination, or does Bernie seem............ I don't know...... enamoured with Penelope Cruz?
She's a good actress, OK? That's my story & I'm sticking to it.
