Description

Dr. Robert Ledgard (Antonio Banderas) is a driven plastic surgeon haunted by personal tragedies. After many years of trial and error, he finally prefects a new skin – a shield which could have prevented the death of his wife in an accident years earlier. His latest “guinea pig” is a mysterious captive whose true identity masks a shocking mystery. THE SKIN I LIVE IN is a masterful tale of secrets, obsession and revenge from Academy Award winning writer/director Pedro Almodovar.

    I've seen quite a few Almodóvar movies but this one just didn't hold my interest. Didn't watch to the end.

    There are so many to reasons to love each of the films that Amoldovar has made. One thing that I love most about all his films is that each of them moves me and they are completly unpredictible. The Skin I Live In doesn't short change either. Beautifull, eloquent, and shocking. A must see.
  • Great Film

    Even if your not into foreign films and reading subtitles I'm pretty sure you'll enjoy this one. Don't get thrown off from it slow beginning it soon gets going.
  • One of the most intense films I have ever seen!

    I will not spoil it with details; this film has to be seen to be believed. I was constantly asking myself, "Are they really doing that?", and when the big reveal came, my jaw was literally on the floor. An amazing film that makes you think twice about your actions and the consequences that come from them. Cannot recommend more highly.

    This movie is unlike anything I've seen before. The plot is truly unique and although it is significantly disturbing at some points, it successfully carries out a jaw-dropping scenario. Applause to Almodovar as well as Banderas and Anaya for their excellent acting.
  • Now, this is a movie
