IT ALL SEEMED TO SET THE STAGE FOR SOMETHG VIVID AND SENSUAL THE STYLE OF SO MANY OTHER ALMODóVAR FILMS. AND WAS BORNE OUT, ALBE LIMED WAYS, THE ACTUAL FILM. HAWKE PLAYS A SMALL-TOWN SHERIFF, JAKE, WHO IS VTIGATG THE MURR OF HIS SISTER--LAW AT THE HANDS OF HER LOVER. PASL IS SILVA, AN OLD IEND OF JAKE’S WHO RIS TO TOWN FOR SHADOWY PURPOS.

IT’S BRIEF, JT LIKE THE SEXUAL EPIPHANY FLASHBACK ALMODóVAR’S PA AND GLORY.

ONE HOP THAT THIS MIGHT BE A MERE MO REEL FOR A FULL FEATURE FILM; ALMODóVAR HAS SAID HE IS GAG NFINCE DIRECTG ENGLISH, SO PERHAPS HE MIGHT FEEL READY TO PURSUE A MORE SUBSTANTIAL STORY WH PASL AND HAWK.
