Our take
More Pedro! Live Flesh finds the Spanish maestro of kink once again defying categorization with this emotionally mature, eye-poppingly colourful web of desires and dramatic twists. An unlikely adaptation of British crime writer Ruth Rendell’s book, with Javier Bardem and a pre-fame Penelope Cruz.
