Full Plot Details

Argentine Manuela Echevarria, an organ transplant coordinator at a Madrid hospital, ran off from her husband in Barcelona eighteen years ago upon learning that she was pregnant, their son, Esteban, who she has never told about his father despite his curiosity, and her husband who didn't know about the pregnancy when she ran off. An event coinciding with Esteban, an aspiring writer, turning seventeen leads to Manuela feeling the need to return to Barcelona to look for her husband. There, she ends up further acting as the maternal figure for people in need. One is a young nun named Sister Rosa, who she meets through her old friend, a transvestite prostitute who has assumed the name Agrado in her agreeable nature. Rosa has a strained relationship with her own conservative mother, as she is consumed with caring for her ill husband, who suffers from Alzheimer's. The other is actress Huma Rojo, currently appearing as Blanche Dubois in a stage production of A Streetcar Named Desire, which has long been a touchstone for Manuela in productions of it coinciding with milestone moments in her life, this production no different. Huma is in a troubled codependent relationship with her younger "Stella Kowalski" costar Nina Cruz, a closet junkie, hence Huma's emotional need for support. By the end of her stay in Barcelona, Manuela will have another non-relative for who she will feel the need to act as a mother figure.

Movie Reviews

New York Daily News - 10/10 by Jami BernardAlmodovar is adept at weaving together strands you'd never guess would match.
Portland Oregonian - 10/10 by Shawn LevyAlmodóvar's masterwork, is a spectacular synthesis of everything that has always interested him -- proud women, lovely boys, beautiful drag queens, grand movie stars, gorgeous frocks, wild wallpaper .
The New York Times - 9/10 by Janet MaslinIt weaves life and art into a rich tapestry of love, loss and compassion.
Los Angeles Times - 9/10 by Kenneth TuranA surprisingly satisfying combination of bawdy sexual humor, genuine emotion and a plot with mechanics so excessive that Almodóvar himself calls it "a screwball drama."
Time - 9/10 by Richard CorlissAs straightforward and plot-driven as any movie about life imitating art imitating life could possibly be.
Newsweek - 9/10 by David AnsenJust about everyone worth knowing in All About My Mother is female in spirit, which is to say they're all sexy, impossible, powerfully durable souls, quarrelsome and loyal, inventive at navigating the tragedies.
Philadelphia Inquirer - 9/10 by Carrie RickeyAlmodovar still populates his work with characters you'll see nowhere else in movies.
Christian Science Monitor - 9/10 by David SterrittSome will find the movie's sexual antics too explicit and unconventional for comfort.
Chicago Sun-Times - 9/10 by Roger EbertThe characters have a weight and reality, as if Almodovar has finally taken pity on them--has seen that although their plights may seem ludicrous, they're real enough to hurt. These are people who stand outside conventional life and its rules, and yet affirm them.
Boston Globe - 9/10 by Jay CarrA tender genuflection to the women's energies that keep that spinning world from keeling over.
