All about my mother (1999 - Pedro Almodovar) ***
This is an entirely women-centric film. But again some of the women are not really biologically "women", many of the important characters are transvestites. This film is about sexuality, motherhood and gender and deals with these themes directly without trying to couch them in beautiful symbols and subtlety. But for the ambitious way in which the film delves into these issues, the ending is somewhat tame.
