David Ansen reviews the latest movie of Pedro Almodovar and starts with this great lead:

“Pedro Almodovar´s latest film includes child abuse, murder, cancer, a corpse stashed in a freezer, a ghost and a village obsessed with the dead-in other words, it´s one of his most benign movies.”

Really good.

Ansen is movie critic and senior editor for Newsweek, where he has been reviewing movies since 1977.

He’s written several documentaries for television, on Greta Garbo (for TNT), Groucho Marx (HBO), Elizabeth Taylor (PBS) and the Ace Award winning “All About Bette” (Bette Davis) for TNT.

A graduated from Harvard College is currently based in Los Angeles.
