5.0 out of 5 stars well-done film noir with spanish accent, January 3, 1999

By A Customer

An unusual film noir plot -- this one kept me guessing up to the end. A young man, desperate for money to help his mute younger brother, becomes a gigolo to an older, wealthy woman. The woman is tormented by horrible nightmares, and finally seeks help. Who is using who? A sexy story with great acting overcomes some poor quality production. See this film!

I love the three great actors in it, but this movie is awful, its cast notwithstanding! The plot's premise is absurd to begin with, its developement too confusing and the final outcome completly preposterous! Thank God both Abril and Banderas show some flesh, so the audience -male and female- won't feel this movie was a total waste of time! Goes to show even the best cinema in the world today -Spain's- has its flops!
