Editorial Reviews

Spanish: Luisa, Ángel y Ramiro, tres amigos inseparables, se encuentran en un apasionante triangulo amoroso del cual ninguno saldrá ileso. Cuando Luisa se casa con Ángel se da cuenta que es a Ramiro a quien ama. Ángel, resignado y sin ninguna otra opción, deja que Luisa se marche y empiece una nueva vida junto a Ramiro. 15 años después Luisa se encuentra de nuevo con Ángel, ahora un mendigo enfermo, y lo lleva a casa donde Ramiro lo recibe con los brazos abiertos. Pero Ángel no esta agradecido sino todo lo contrario, lleno de rencor y con sed de venganza. Luisa y Ramiro, sin darse cuenta, habían metido un intruso a su casa .

English: Luisa, Angel and Ramiro, three inseparable friends, find themselves in a love triangle from which no one will get out unharmed. When Luisa and Angel get married, Luisa realizes that who she truly loves is not her husband but Ramiro. Angel, without any other alternative, let Luisa go and start a new life with her true love. 15 years later, Luisa runs into Angel, now a homeless sick man, and taking pity on him she takes him home where Ramiro welcomes his old friend with open arms. But Angel far from thankful is filled with rage and vengeful thoughts. Luisa and Ramiro had unknowingly opened their doors to an enemy.

4.0 out of 5 stars Un tri'angulo espan~ol de amor, November 7, 2009

This was an interesting look at a bizarre love triangle in Spain. A wife's poor, dying ex-husband is taken in by her and her new family. The current husband and the two were friends since being children. This work will make you question if a person can only have one true love. For those who are sensitive about bumping into exes, this will have an impact as well. The work meditates on meeting others in a different life and not being able to let go of the past two.
This work is very sexy. It has female and male nudity. Some people may be used to the "I have a headache!" line, but the female lead here has no probably keeping men satisfied. The late Eve Sedgwick Kosofsky wrote that in literary love triangles, the men fighting over the damsel in distress often love each other too. Here, one man kisses the other. It's done in the platonic, European way, but it can still be read as homoerotic. Personally, I think the film implies that the wife could be carrying any man's child, Maury Povich-style!
I'm not a little-kid person, but the two child actors here are just adorable. Their lines also add depth to the script, not just cuteness. This film was made more than 15 years ago, and I hope the children haven't suffered as many American child stars have.
I don't think this was an Almodovar film, but it has elements like his oeuvre. This work joins many others which show that the Spanish film industry really produces an amazing body of work. I enjoyed this film a lot. This was serendipity!

This review is for the Amazon VOD rental of this film. This looks like it might be
a really good film. The problem I have with it is that the VOD rental is in Spanish
without subtitles or dubbing into English. I think Amazon could be more clear explaining
this before you rent the film. I think Victoria Abril is a wonderful actress and I was
looking forward to watching her in this movie. I will look for the film on DVD if I
can find it.
