Since today is Pedro's 60th birthday, I decided to make this poll in his honor.

Tie Me Up! Tie Me Down!


Kika


Volver


All About My Mother


Talk To Her


Bad Education

Martinus

Only seen the first two on your list and then moved to the 'burbs where they don't show artsy-fartsy Spanish films. but IIRC, Tie Me Up had a cool scene with a chick in a bathtub, so I'll vote that.

Sorry, I have never heard of him or any of his films. Are these foreign films?

Yes.  Now, prepare to be flamed for your ignorance.

He's a Spanish director who has a thing for trannies.
To sleep, perchance to dream. But in that sleep of death, what dreams may come?

I voted "Women on the verge...". Can't stand most of his later stuff, and some of the movies in the list (Kika, I'm looking at you) are tripe.

BuddhaRhubarb

Verge.... I haven't seen Volver yet tho thx for reminding me.
:p

His movies are only know by their Spanish names here.

I saw Habla con ella and Kika. I liked them both.

"Women on the verge .. " is the only one I've actually watched, when I was a kid and there was nothing else on TV (may have been back when there were only 2 channels). I can't for the life of me remember if I liked it or not.
None of his stuff has ever picked my interest. I mostly know him for his political opinions, which are often downright laughable.

Bad Education is the only one I've heard of and I don't think I've seen it.

No idea who this person is.  I would suppose, based on the opening post, that he is a homosexual though.
I do not hate you, nor do I love you, but you are made out of atoms which I can use for something else.

DisturbedPervert

Never heard of him or any of his movies, and from the pics provided I'm ok with that.

Never heard of him. Have heard of Bad Education, but never seen it.
It is far better for the truth to tear my flesh to pieces, then for my soul to wander through darkness in eternal damnation.

Jet: So what kind of woman is she? What's Julia like?
Faye: Ordinary. The kind of beautiful, dangerous ordinary that you just can't leave alone.
Jet: I see.
Faye: Like an angel from the underworld. Or a devil from Paradise.
