Spanish Film Season
to
A certain trend of Spanish films seem to have a funny mix of sex, comedy, quick rythm and flashy colours.
Here are 4 of the best Spanish "sex comedies" from 1982 to 2003.
All these films are very famous in Spain, and 3 of them are all from major Spanish film directors: Julio Medem, Pedro Almodovar, and Bigas Luna.
The last film, Torremolinos 73 is from Pablo Berger, who hasn't made any other films, but Torremolinos 73 is one the most popular Spanish comedies in the last decades.
