Audience Member pero claro maximo, ya te lo habia dicho yo esta peli es mailisima esta sacada de un libro que tuvo varias partes y tenian su gracia pero la peli se hizo "sulla scia di donne" el titulo en italiano me sirvio para aprenderme un modo di dire vosrtro "come essere donna senza LASCIARCI LA PELLE" muy buena traducción ebhorabuena por tus recensiones Rated 1 out of 5 stars 01/24/23 Full Review Audience Member Hay peliculas que envejecen mas rapido (y peor) que otras. “Como ser mujer…” es una de ellas. Si la comparamos a “Mujer al borde…”, con la que comparte mas o menos el tema, esta ultima parece rodada ayer, mientras que la primera es MUY PERO MUY ochentas. Y por supuesto, Almodavar es Almodovar. Ana Belen es… bueno, Ustedes me entenderan. Lo unico que distaca aqui es Carmen Maura. Si no fuera por ella… a la basura! Rated 3 out of 5 stars 01/16/23 Full Review Audience Member Just seen this recently, so much fun.Carmen Maura is great as usual. A woman's point of view of a male dominated Spain in the early 90's. Things have changed but not that much. Def. worth a watch. :) Rated 4 out of 5 stars 01/25/23 Full Review Audience Member ¿Como no identificarse y reir con Carmen Maura para no llorar? La mujer en todos sus estadios... Rated 5 out of 5 stars 02/13/23 Full Review Audience Member checked it out of the foreign section of the library. fun, but dated. the women really loathe the men of the film. I don't really want to see it again. *shrug* Rated 3 out of 5 stars 01/29/23 Full Review Read all reviews
