B-
An uneasy blend of slice-of-admittedly-odd-life in 1940s Spain and noirish stories about one character's father, with the melodrama trickling into the main story in the last act. Note that there are three significant Fernandos involved here: director Fernando Trueba, who adapted the Juan Marsé novel; Fernando Tielve as the young narrator and protagonist; and Fernando Fernán Gómez as a scene-stealing profane old captain.
