All about Almodóvar -- Passion for women of any gender
At 56, Pedro Almodóvar is many things: a Spaniard; a gay man; a connoisseur of the absurd; a prolific writer and director; and one of the few auteurs still standing. But most of all, Pedro Almodóvar is a man who loves women. He loves women of all ages and temperaments and in every shape and size; he loves the very concept of womanhood. His love is a signature scrawled so large across his films that critics have labeled him a "woman's director." Probably some did not intend it as a compliment. It's equally probable that Almodóvar considers it one, anyway.
