After ‘Bitter Christmas,’ Pedro Almodóvar Might Be Done with English-Language Movies

With Cannes entry “Bitter Christmas,” Oscar-winning Spanish auteur Pedro Almodóvar (“Talk to Her”) is back. My bet: he will not shoot another film in English and will stick to making movies in his native language.

AI Summary

Pedro Almodóvar returns to Cannes with “Bitter Christmas,” his latest Spanish‑language film, and says he is unlikely to shoot another English‑language picture. He recalled the difficulties he faced with New York unions while making the English‑language “The Room Next Door,” starring Tilda Swinton and Julianne Moore, and noted that work in Spain feels more immediate and culturally familiar. Almodóvar does not rule out English projects entirely, but any future effort would have to be small‑scale because he no longer feels able to manage large, chaotic productions.
