With a melodic hook split between the electric bass, guitar, and glockenspiel, this song immediately oozes confidence. It has a deliciously crisp low-end and some really interesting dynamics of range, and depth. The vocals, and more importantly, melodic sensibility, have just a hint of Rufus Wainwright, and that effortless command of a Broadway-Kerouac hybrid under cover of groove.

Beneath it all, the clean and natural sound of an acoustic drum set shines through, and the warmth of the bass and kick drum are enough to keep you cozy on a winter's night. It's all about that rhythm section.

Kudos

Awix (3310 KP) rated La Ley del Deseo (Law of Desire) (1987) in Movies

Apr 2, 2020 (Updated Apr 2, 2020)

Almodovar's sixth movie is the one that brought him properly to international attention, but it's clear that his distinctive style was already well-developed by this point: there is the same skilful combination of suspense-movie tropes with sometimes-outrageous melodrama, and a sense of narrative playfulness.

Very strong performances from Antonio Banderas and Carmen Maura in particular, although the script seems to lack some of the deftness and confidence Almodovar would show in later movies - the shift from relationship drama to thriller isn't quite as well handled as one could hope for, and some elements of the story really do strain credibility. Nevertheless, an accomplished and engaging movie.
