Anton Bitel Little White Lies 09/15/2023
at times near Hitchcockian in its suspense, the film catches us between a rock and a hard place, in this case a man who seems utterly irredeemable, and a young woman so affectless and unresponsive that any characterisation can be projected onto her.

In Juanma Bajo Ulloa's unusual thriller, Ana Álvarez's Leire inadvertently becomes part of a twisted love triangle. Though she doesn't ride off into the sunset at the end, she emerges triumphant simply by surviving the ordeal. Go to Full Review Read all reviews

09/30/2013 "Olha eu sou um cara mau pra kct... matei a mãe e ainda atirei na filha e deixei ela retardada...ouhhaaaaaha". Aí de repente vemos essa mesma pessoa vestida de palhaço tentando animar a garota acorrentada na cama, porque "ela não ri". Não rolou como filme. See more 09/29/2013 Um homem mata mulher num assalto; a única testemunha, filha da vítima, é reencontrada anos mais tarde numa clínica para doentes mentais. See more 07/05/2013 A twisted story of love and redemption by one on Spain's finest filmmakers. See more 02/15/2009 anyone who like strange movie.....this is one of them....don't miss it! See more @MilloTPue 02/07/2009 Between 2 and 2.5 stars. Aesthetics, music and even inner motivations are brilliante, but lack of coherence and sense of development of story (the way the character uses violence at the end is comical on purpose, but makes it even more unrealistic) makes you can not take it seriously.
