Pedro Almodóvar Trivia Questions

In 1986, Pedro and his brother Agustín founded El Deseo, which has produced most of his films and supports many other Spanish directors.

Pedro Almodóvar directed the 2020 short film 'The Human Voice' starring Tilda Swinton, which is entirely in English, contradicting the claim that he has never directed an English-language film.

He did not win Best Director for that film. Almodóvar has never won a competitive Best Director Oscar. For 'All About My Mother' (1999), he won Best Foreign Language Film. His other Oscar win was Best Original Screenplay for 'Talk to Her' (2002).

Irene is not a ghost; she faked her death and is alive. She interacts with multiple characters throughout the film, so the claim is false.

His debut feature 'Pepi, Luci, Bom' (1980) was shot on 16mm, not Super 8, though it had punk and countercultural influences.

It’s based on Thierry Jonquet’s novel 'Mygale', not Stephen King. The mix of horror and revenge is often mistaken for King’s style.

Cruz missed several films, including 'Talk to Her' and 'Bad Education'. Their collaboration is frequent but not constant.

Before filmmaking, he was employed by Telefónica for 12 years, where he saved money to buy his first camera and made short films.
