More quotes by Pedro Almodovar
Maybe it's the culture, maybe it's the cliché of Latino machismo, but the Mediterranean male character is more dull than the female character. Women are more surprising and they have fewer prejudices.
Pedro Almodovar
The silent film has a lot of meanings. The first part of the film is comic. It represents the burlesque feel of those silent films. But I think that the second part of the film is full of tenderness and emotion.
Pedro Almodovar
I am partly not conscious of structure with my movies, but this is when I am writing. I leave my mind very free, and then I correct it after.
Pedro Almodovar
Whenever I arrive on a real location, I have to move around and work out what the best angles are going to be.
Pedro Almodovar
The Flower of My Secret is definitely more based in true emotions. I also wanted to make something more realistic, but not naturalistic or simple.
Pedro Almodovar
Each actor is a very different person, and each one has to be directed very differently.
Pedro Almodovar
When I was very young, I was already a fabulador. I loved to give my own version of stories that everybody already knew. When I got out of a movie with my sisters, I retold them the whole story. In general they liked my version better than the one they had seen.
Pedro Almodovar
Cukor is one of my favorite directors. He was a master at directing women.
Pedro Almodovar
Hospitals are places that you have to stay in for a long time, even if you are a visitor. Time doesn't seem to pass in the same way in hospitals as it does in other places. Time seems to almost not exist in the same way as it does in other places.
Pedro Almodovar
I was born at a bad time for Spain, but a really good one for cinema.
Pedro Almodovar
The 1980s really ended for me in 1992 with the film Kika.
Pedro Almodovar
The challenge to me as a director was for the audience to see the film as going on in a straight line, so that they did not sense all of these break-ups. I did not want a film to be a collage of all these images.
Pedro Almodovar
When I was young I thought: when I am 60 my necessities will be very different. As I get near that age, I realise they are similar to what they were when I was 25.
Pedro Almodovar
I think that the consciousness of passion makes you act very differently.
Pedro Almodovar
All my movies have an autobiographical dimension, but that is indirectly, through the characters. In fact I am behind everything that happens and that is said, but I am never talking about myself in first person. Something in me - probably a dislike of cheap exhibitionism- stops me from approaching a project too autobiographically.
Pedro Almodovar
I used this line to demonstrate how important colors are in movies: It's not a caprice.
Pedro Almodovar
Yes, women are stronger than us. They face more directly the problems that confront them, and for that reason they are much more spectacular to talk about. I don't know why I am more interested in women, because I don't go to any psychiatrists, and I don't want to know why.
Pedro Almodovar
I'm really a nightmare for the fashion designer because I take away all of his authority, and I become the authority, and I turn him into my assistant. You could say I intervene, and I intervene in a very determining way in all the aspects that have to do with the visual construction of the film.
Pedro Almodovar
I think décor says a lot about someone's social position, their taste, their sensibility, their work - and also about the aesthetic way I have chosen to tell their story.
Pedro Almodovar
When I'm writing, I don't put faces on the characters. When I finish the first draft of the script, I start visualizing, and sometimes then I think about one actor.
