Kiss of the Spider Woman Review

I remember liking this movie when it came out in 1985 but I had forgotten just how good this movie really is. William Hurt certainly deserved the Oscar he won for his portrayal of Molina, an effeminate sex offender-- he is always in character-- on the other hand, Raul Julia is wonderful as a political prisoner too. This film makes a thoughtful statement about both friendship and what being a man is really all about as well.
I can't remember when I have seen such a realistic film. You can almost smell and taste the awful prison food that these two men eat, for instance. The sex between the two men is handled with great delicacy. This is a really fine movie that troubled me long after I saw it again.

Kiss of the Spider Woman Overview

This groundbreaking movie was the first independent film to receive the top four Oscar(c) nominations including Best Picture for Producer David Weisman and Best Director for Hector Babenco.Adapted by Academy Award(c) nominated screenwriter Leonard Schrader from Manuel Puig's world-acclaimed novel set in a non-specific Latin American country, KISS OF THE SPIDER WOMAN is a story of sex, politics, and obsessive love of movies - under an oppressive right-wing regime.Puig's timeless theme, more relevant today than ever, follows the complex relationship between two radically different men with opposing views of life - the drama builds with powerful emotional crescendo as gradually they converge in a stunning transcendental conclusion.William Hurt delivers his Oscar(c) winning performance in this captivating tribute to the power of film and fantasy as escape from inhumane conditions.
