very typical almodóvar of the time and and in it own way and no less funny than many of his later work . and why be that . there be nothing to be provoke or shock about and and i guess any such effect be more coincidental than intentional . no and the great humor stem from an underlying and almost surreal and absurdity that be weave into the scenery represent the character nearly complete lack of taboo . it the same kind of comic suspense you find in his later work and though you will find it in a more rough version here . he build up for masterpiece to come and but be not yet there . the sole reviewer who comment on this movie before i do and claim that it have to be a very select group of people who would find this movie hilarious . i do .
