inkbug has posted a picture of Antonio Banderas with black nail polish on his toes.

::blinkity::

however, z_rayne pointed out that:

"Y'all do realize that many of Antonio's early (foreign) movies pretty much qualify as soft-core gay porn, right? Right?"

...which, really, explains some things.

however, I'm still in a state of a;ds;edjfr;alskjrhorf!!!11!1 at the concept.

I think I need more visual aides.

::peers around:: screenshots??

anyone?


[edit] franzeska has posted summaries of Almodóvar's films because, as she says,

"Whether you think he's stunningly hot or stunningly hilarious, you should really see him with 80's hair taking it up the ass from Eusebio Poncela."

Personally, I'm stuck between finding him hot and hilarious *simultaneously* which majorly confuses my brain, but hey. ::shrugs:: still won't prevent me from hunting down those movies...

and btw? ya'll ROCK.

Ah yes, Almodóvar, maker of fine drugged out gay movies. He tends to recycle his casts, and luckily for us, this means lots and lots of Banderas weirdness. Also luckily for us, he's famous, so you should be able to find some of his movies in pretty much any city.

Laberinto de pasiones: Crazy gay terrorist who can find people by smell, unless he's in love in which case he can only smell the guy he's in love with (Oh, you thought he was just a gay terrorist? Silly you! That would be far too normal for Almodóvar.) Also features "Sexilia", a wacky nymphomaniac

Matador: Would-be bull fighter who faints at the sight of blood; obsessed with bull fighting teacher to the point of stalkerish obsession; stalking facilitated by cheesy psychic powers (Though when he tries to take the blame for all the serial killing going on, you really have to laugh)

La ley del deseo: Latent homosexual who becomes not so latent with his celebrity crush. Then he goes nuts. More stalking. My favorite scene is the reunion of the transsexual sister and the priest she knew as a choir boy.

Mujeres al borde de un ataque de nervios: Wimpy philandering guy, gets to date that chick who looks exactly like a Picasso. It's a great film, but I don't think Banderas did much... though I may just not remember it well.

Átame!: Perverted stalker who's obsessed with an ex-porn star who's trying to get off of heroin... Luckily for him, she's a total weirdo too, so it ends much more happily than most movies about stalkers who kidnap their crushes and tie them to beds.


Those are all the ones I remember offhand. I'm really more of an Almodóvar fan than a Banderas one. The director has a number of other films, many of them also rather perverted.

Oh God. *chokes with laughter* Thank you. Thank you. Reading those summaries was just what I needed after a two hour Irish Literature exam. You just made my entire day.

Yeah, normally those sort of films end in tears and bloodshed. This one, I presume, ends with hot, kinky bondage sex?
