Product Description

Un Essentiel Amazon.fr

Quelques mois après s'être trouvés côte à côte lors d'une pièce de théâtre, deux hommes, Benigno et Marco, se retrouvent dans une clinique privée où travaille Benigno. Une jeune femme torero, Lydia, petite amie de Marco, a été renversée par un taureau et est tombée dans le coma. Benigno s'occupe quant à lui d'une autre femme dans le coma, Alicia, une jeune danseuse. Le temps retenu entre les murs de cette clinique se chargera d'emmener les quatre personnages dans des directions inattendues… Parle avec elle est une histoire d'amitié et d'amour, de solitude et d'affection. Les acteurs sont excellents, les dialogues brillants, et la photo particulièrement soignée, comme c'est souvent le cas avec Almodovar qui, détail intéressant, avait originellement écrit la séquence en noir et blanc muet afin d'en faire un long métrage. C'est donc les yeux fermés que vous pourrez acquérir cet émouvant DVD, une réussite de plus au palmarès de l'extravagant espagnol. --David Rault!

Nope, didn't like it Feb 9 2004
Format:DVD
I actually had to watch this film because of my job. I never liked Almodovar's films because his "women" are not even real characters. Here, both were in comas (previous films, they are victimized, molested, etc). This "kind" male nurse STALKED the girl, entered her home under false pretenses, entered her bedroom, saw her naked, then later bathes and dresses her while she's in her coma. It's like the only way he can have her is like this. He never wanted an equal, he wanted someone dependent (there seem to be no strong women in Almodovar's films).
As for the "erotic" silent film in the middle...why? Why was it there? Sigh.

this is insane! am i the only one who notices how horrible this film was? i was getting ready to see something great and instead i was landed with a crappy 2 hour long movie about nothing. the first hour was totally irrelivant. Please tell me, what was the plot? the first hour why was that necessary? people rave about how it expressed love and the stages of adoration yet the first part of the movie, first hour, was about absolutely nothing. Then all of a sudden, the whole "unexistant plot" changes and we are then exposed to a sort of sweet story about a man who is deeply in love with a woman in a coma... if that was the plot, fine, but why stick that horrible and waste of time first hour! please explain this to me, if this is this man's best movie, it makes me wonder what his other movies were like because i can hardly imagine something worse that Habla Con Ella..

... for those who feel that the "rape" was violent or offensive, please not, there was NO violence in the movie, the man by the way if you didnt notice because the movie was so boring, was actually very good to alicia and in the twisted sort of way his raping, if that can be called raped, was what brought the 4 year sleeping beauty back to reality...

am i wrong?

A wonderfully complex examination of 'what is love'? April 18 2011
By K. Gordon TOP 50 REVIEWER
Format:VHS Tape
My second favorite Almodovar film, after 'All About My Mother'. A moving and complex study of the relationship between two men, and their connection to women in comas. A few brilliantly funny moments, and some ultimately very creepy undertones keep it from being over-sentimental. Every character is more complex then they first appear, and the confusion between what is good and what is bad in both intent and effect is very rich. Some great camera work too. Gets slow in a few spots, and the sentiment still goes over the top in a few places, but still a terrific film about the similarities and differences between love and obsession.

"Nothing is simple."
Pedro Almodovar's "Talk to Her" is a disappointing follow-up to the director's much-superior "All About My Mother. Read more
