Sinopsis(1)
Dolor y Gloria narra una serie de reencuentros de Salvador Mallo, un director de cine en su ocaso. Algunos de ellos físicos, otros recordados: su infancia en los años 60, cuando emigró con sus padres a Paterna, un pueblo de Valencia en busca de prosperidad, el primer deseo, su primer amor adulto ya en el Madrid de los 80, el dolor de la ruptura de este amor cuando todavía estaba vivo y palpitante, la escritura como única terapia para olvidar lo inolvidable, el temprano descubrimiento del ciney el vacío, el inconmensurable vacío ante la imposibilidad de seguir rodando. Dolor y Gloria habla de la creación, de la dificultad de separarla de la propia vida y de las pasiones que le dan sentido y esperanza. En la recuperación de su pasado, Salvador encuentra la necesidad urgente de narrarlo, y en esa necesidad, encuentra también su salvación. (Sony Pictures Esp.)

Para mí un Almodóvar demasiado típico, más bien para sus fans. El personaje de Banderas de director veterano, que sufre físicamente, recuerda su infancia con su madre Penélope (la parte más bella y poética de la película) y conoce a personas importantes en su vida posterior. Bien coloreado a la manera de Almodóvar, autobiográfico en las partes de los sentimiento, otro papel interesante para Antonio, y aún así me dejó frío. Incluso con la idea de que las mejores cosas de la vida son las películas. [Cannes]

Lately, I’ve got a feeling that when I watch a new film by Pedro Almodóvar, I’ve already seen it before. I wonder if it’s a sign of creative recycling. Antonio Banderas is not bad here, but the whole film is rather average, not really about art but about Pedro’s extravaganza and his need to express himself by filmmaking once in a while so that he can let us alone for some time after that. And because he’s a national artist, Penélope and Antonio are still willing to help him out with that.

The beautiful thing about Almodóvar is that he makes his films as a loose auteur series. And if he's working with Antonio Banderas and Penélope Cruz again, it's like reuniting with old friends. Thus, the basic comfort feeling is guaranteed. Everything else is secondary and yet again great, autobiographical, full of nostalgia, memories, film sets... There is no shortage of unexpected love. I'm satisfied.

Good old Pedro Almodóvar tells a melancholic tale that could be based largely on his personal memories and experiences. That's how believable I find Pain and Glory. The casting of Antonio Banderas in the lead role was also very useful. It is a calmly flowing film with strong emotional moments that will be appreciated especially by those who have experienced something in life. Slowly but surely I am becoming one of them. (85%)

Salvator Mallo, a film director who still remains creative but whose failing health and therefore his psyche have not allowed him to sit in the director's chair again, returns to his childhood memories and to his late mother. Even though he is in a lot of physical pain and has said goodbye to many people in his life, he suffers more from this loss than he is willing to admit. Whether in his memories, in his work, or in real life, Salvator returns to the people who meant something to him. It is precisely these scenes that are the most intimate and the most moving, and give the film an unusual subtlety. Also worth highlighting are the sets, the play with colours and the way Almodóvar incorporates them into every shot. From the water drawing effect in the opening credits, to the colourful and mottled clothing, to the various mosaics (a blue pool mosaic similar to a kitchen stove). Overall, it is a visual and emotional treat for the soul with a rather surprising ending.
