Pedro Almodovar's 'Talk to Her' is he story of a journalist and a male nurse meeting after the journalist's partner is in a tragic bullfighting accident leaving her in a coma. At first he is uncomfortable with the situation and refuses to talk to her whilst she's in a comatose state however, with the help of the male nurse he is encouraged to talk to her with the chance she may wake up. He learns that the nurse has an obsession with his partient and was in love with her before she even fell into a coma. Much like Almodovar's previous films, it's very unusual and you have to have a certain taste to appreciate it, i however don't and didn't really enjoy this film but instead found it rather uncomfortable to watch.
