Review

The Spanish biographical drama Óscar. Una pasión surrealista (2008) tells the story of two lives. The first is the life of actual surrealist painter Óscar Domínguez (Joaquim de Almeida), who lived in early-twentieth-century Paris and was disfigured by disease after a life of debauchery. The second is the fictional story of Ana (Victoria Abril), a woman in present-day Madrid who is diagnosed with a fatal illness and then begins a lesbian affair with Eva (Emma Suárez) and seeks the last painting Domínguez painted before he committed suicide. It’s some surreal skin when Victoria goes full frontal in a bathtub and we get an overhead view. You’ll be dripping goo like a clock in a Dali painting!
