Plot: De que se rien las mujeres 1997 The debut in the direction of Joaquin Oristrell was this film that at the time of its premiere was so praised by the usual ass kissers of always as reviled in low voice by many people in the little Spanish movie world in word of mouth, which is not so strange if It is taken into account that through the production company of that name Boca a Boca Oristrell has been an essential figure in Spanish cinema at the turn of the century, not only because of his activity as a screenwriter, but also because of his power within the industry That said, after seeing this film, more than 20 years after its premiere, one comes to the conclusion that it was unfairly treated, because it is a summer comedy that is as fresh irreverent, wild, provocative and desperate And as funny as it is intelligent despite its astracane surface and its somewhat disconnected appearance And in which a lot of tender moments are not lacking, along with an inquiry into the female soul, love, sex, the couple, loneliness, family and, ultimately, life It is not just a comedy to laugh at, it also allows you to think at times Or feel And all, in a light way and in a comedy tone, which is how certain things come best The work of the main trio formed by Forque, Ozores and Pena shines at a great height, not to mention people like Angel de Andres Lopez the sequence of breakfast with the three sisters is, for me, anthological or Juanjo Menendez, in a role very different from those he had always played in the cinema until then And it goes without saying that when this film is compared with the comedies that in the past, as in those of the Landismo, they tried to approach these themes sex, the couple, the woman from a light tone, the differences, to the margin of artistic results, they are a happy confirmation of how much that had already changed at the end of the 20th century, and for the better, Spanish society compared to the preceding decades Because also, although it sounds pretentious to say it, the film has a lot to do with the Spanish soul And it constitutes an excellent sociological testimony of those already distant happy years in which it was filmed
