What Have I Done to Deserve This? is a perfect example of director Pedro Almodovar's earlier work, containing all the elements which earned his films a cult international following. Starring the incomparable Carmen Maura as Gloria (who would go on to work with him on his international breakthrough Women on the Verge of a Nervous Breakdown), a prescription drug addicted working mother battling to make sense of her life and family as the world around her goes crazy, this film treats its subject matter with the tragicomic flippancy that fans have come to love and expect from Almodovar's films.
With a plot that includes paedophilia, wanton drug use, forgery, sex and crime, this tale of a woman's lonely struggle to hold a family together in a harsh urban environment ought not to be this funny. But this is Almodovar we're talking about, where elastic morals reign and every shock only adds to the fun. Intelligent, offensive, risque, hilarious, sarcastic, eccentric, ironic, compelling, sad and sexy, this early film from the Oscar-winning director of such modern classics as Talk to Her and Live Flesh, shows Almodovar's genius at its most raw and untamed, his explosive energy shining through right to the last frame.
