Medem's astonishing, magical-realist love story Sex and Lucía is easily the best Spanish film since "All About My Mother." But such a statement actually undersells the beauty of what Medem has created, which in many ways rather defies description.
Elegant and sometimes inscrutable.

The parts work even if the whole leaves me uncertain. Many movies are certain about their whole, but are made of careless parts. Forced to choose, I would take the parts.
Whatever you say about Sex and Lucía, you have to admit that it takes place at a hormonal high tide that never ebbs.
A truly titillating and truly convoluted tale of l'amour fou. Perhaps the American remake could be titled ''Hot Fudge Ripple Sky.''
Both refreshing and confusing, the film equivalent of an ice cream headache.
Goes nowhere.
