carlos saura’s PEPPERMINT FRAPPÉ (1968)
part “persona,” part “pygmalion,” part... who the fuck knows what, crazy crazy movie, so good. saura dedicated it to buñuel, and it’s fitting. [eta: critics say VERTIGO. sure, but, same difference]
i had known of this movie for a long time but it was hard to find. re-spotted the title the other day in a list of almodovar’s favorite spanish movies. now criterion has it- hurrah.
