Victor was born in a deserted New Year night under Francisco Franco's mustache in 1970 as a prostitute's son. Fate brought him to an apartment of a junkie, Helena after 20 years, with whom he had a fabulous intercourse before. A bullet fired from gun in that room blossomed flowers of sin and expiation in the minds of characters within that frames of "Crane Tremula".
Live Flesh, directed by Pedro Almodovar is a glittery, electrifying piece of art showing the flow of immortal sins from mind to body. We cant take eyes from screen for a single moment and it twitches the skin inside. Elena becomes a devout wife to David, an ex-cop saved her from Victor since she is responsible for his life in wheel chair. The return of Victor from prison creates tensions in the couple's life and Elena realizes nakedness of truth adding intense colors to her reparation.Clara, by Ángela Molina is another remarkable woman in the movie. She was put behind the bars of threatened love for her husband, Sancho, the colleague of David.
Bunuel's "Ensayo De Un Crimen" sets off the spark and is getting more fire like towards the end.Elena is played by Francesca Neri and Javier Bardem as David. Also Alberto Iglesias's wonderful music made flesh more delicious and tempt us to eat more.
