Macon Film Guild Presents: "Pain and Glory"

Pain and Glory (Spain, drama, 113 min., rated R for drug use, some graphic nudity and language) In a performance that earned him the top acting award at this year’s Cannes Film Festival, Antonio Banderas plays the alter ego of his longtime collaborator, writer-director Pedro Almodóvar. He stars as a famous Spanish filmmaker, taking stock of his personal and professional life in middle age. “’Pain and Glory’ can be achingly sad, but its pleasures, rainbow hues and humor keep it (and you) aloft.” – New York Times
