Kika
Kika ★★ 1994
Another flamboyant comedy from Almodovar finds irrepressible beautician Kika (Forque) involved with kinky photographer Ramon (Casanovas) and his stepfather Nicholas (Coyote), a sinister American pulp novelist. There's also Andrea Scarface (Jean-Paul Gaultier-costumed Abril), the host of a vile tabloid TV show called “Today's Worst,” and Kika's lesbian maid Juana (de Palma) whose brother happens to be an escaped con/porn star, leading to an outlandish rape and…well, it's all pretty nonsensical, anyway. Spanish with subtitles. 115m/C VHS, DVD . SP Veronica Forque, Peter Coyote, Victoria Abril, Alex Casanovas, Rossy de Palma; D: Pedro Almodovar; W: Pedro Almodovar; C: Alfredo Mayo; M: Enrique Granados.
