"Parallel Mothers" - Teaser and Release Date

This is both agonizing timing and perfect timing. Sony Pictures Classics have just released this teaser for Parallel Mothers and have announced that the movie hits theaters on December 24th in the US. We fear that's way too late to build up the steam for a major Oscar play. International features often require a larger lead time to get conversation going. Factually speaking, all five of Pedro's Oscar-nominated films  (Women on the Verge, All About My Mother, Talk to Her, Volver, Pain and Glory) have begun their stateside rollouts in November.  On the other hand it's perfect timing for our about to launch "All About Pedro" series which begins this Thursday with his first feature Pepi Luci Bom (1980). This is entirely accidental but that means the new movie arrives the day after our series wraps up!

Yes- all of it
No - n/a
Maybe so - n/a

Cannot wait. That is a shame on the release date though

looks great, as usual. Not worried about the late December release in theaters... the festival circuit and the screeners would have been rolling for long, and if the critics begin to champion it, buzz will be solid.

On Pepi, Luci, Bom... it's his "Pink Flamingos" and I hope John Waters forgives me, but Almodóvar's debut is way better than Waters'... also, Alaska's pee is more poignant than Divine's sh*t, story-wise

Almodovar always makes amazing looking films

Looks kind of ugly - which I love.

Yeah, I'm going to see it. I need to see The Human Voice.
