Easily my favourite of many of Saura's films that I have seen, and this, together with 'The Spirit of the Beehive' are my two favourite Spanish films (I don't count Bunuel films as being Spanish, but centered on the country by which he made them, since he was an exile). Coincidentally, these two feature the greatest child performances I have ever seen, thanks to Ana Torrent. As well, though I also like Chaplin's work for Robert Altman, I consider her acting for her husband to be the finest of her career, at least from works that I have seen thus far.
