Hello

Has anybody got a link for the film Volver by almodovar, preferably in the original Spanish.

Many thanks
Taff

dunno about a link (maybe ask dawson

) but what a corker of a film :cool:

I thought Almodovar's films were a bit left winged to be exported.

Alternative 1) Free Trackers.

If you go to www.btjunkie.org you'll find several copies if you search "volver"

But I don't know if it's the english or spanish version

Alternative 2)

I can send you an invitation to a private tracker that has the real thing in Spanish. If you want one, send me a PM with a email address (not hotmail) so that I send you the invitation and the link to the torrent

Vooooolveeeeer </woman singing>

Volver ? in english would it have a RE in front of it or would we just spell it VULVA ?

Either way I'm interested , whats the plot ?

by **taff** » Thu Jan 17, 2008 6:11 pm

I have absolutely no idea Woof

My flatmate is from Toulouse and speaks Spanish fluently and is going on about this film all the time. Think its a chick flick about a group of women in Spain and their lives.

I got her watching Help last night with the aid of some herbal relief, made no sense at all to either of us, what were the Beatles thinking when they made that film

it means come back, and is not related to the word revólver, with the ó (without it means to mix, or mess) which comes directly from the english, despite it seems a spanish word.

It's

vol as in volley
and ver as in version

The plot? the film talks about what a woman can do for the sake of love, while it mixes and explains quite well how is the insight about death of a very rural and deep rooted Spain.

It's actually an interesting thing to grasp how is the rural Spain, the real Spain (not the globalised one we have in the cities).

It mixes drama and humour quite well. Cannot tell you more without breaking the plot. Hope that helped and didn't remove the interest

talk to her is my fave film by almodovar... check that one out, his stuff is, as said, is very left field... but very cool

ignore sabre. the film is actually about penelope cruz's cleavage - which is a joy.

Would this be it?

Volver (Spanish)

Sounds a bit heavy to me this Taff. Chick flicks and that? Notting Hill was on the other week and I watched some of that. That's enough for the whole of 2008 now.

No M16 machine guns or any cliched mumbling 80's beefcakes, either saving America single handedly (from an alien species if you like) or saving plazas on Xmas Eve in this film?

(I've watched both Predator films in the last seven days. that's the film mood I'm in at the minute. Foreign films can wait for the time being...)

Woof asked what's the film about, not what makes the film worth a download

volver is a little bit of a chick flick but has the quality and style to appeal to us blokes as well. and of course penelope cruz with a surprisingly inviting cleavage for a skinny gal :buttrock

mind you i hate hollywood films. with very few exceptions they're all complete and utter brainless, force-fed-morals b0ll0cks. i'd rather watch some cartoons

I agree mate. Unless theres robots from the future or sharks which are suspiciously intelligent then its not for me
