The Law of Desire Summary
MPAA Rating: NC17
Director: Pedro Almodóvar
Genres: Thriller
Rating:

Popular film director Pablo Quintero (Eusebio_Poncela) has found a new love in the form of handsome blue-collar Juan (Miguel_Molina). Not altogether comfortable with his lifestyle, Juan decides to leave Pablo for a while to contemplate his future. Pablo insists that Juan keep in touch by sending him love letters. Ever the director, he plans to write the letters himself, and have Juan mail them back with his signature. If you think that settles things, you don't know filmmaker Pedro_Almodovar. Among the many plot complications in Law of Desire is Pablo's subsequent romance with the possessive Antonio (Antonio_Banderas, whose "gay kiss" in the film prompted front-page headlines in the Brazilian press), and Pablo's efforts to film the life story of his sister (Carmen_Maura), who started out life as his brother.
