Live Flesh is a good Almodóvar film. It stars Javier Bardem and was based on a Ruth Rendell novel. Worth a watch.

Live Flesh (1997), directed by Pedro Almodóvar, is a provocative drama about love, guilt, and redemption. The film follows a man paralyzed by a shooting incident and the complex relationships that develop between him, his lover, and those involved in the tragedy.

I've now watched every Pedro Almodovar film up to and including Bad Education. They're all good except for Live Flesh. I was expecting that to be him at his outrageous best, but it felt a little inert. It's not as camp or punk as his earlier work, and it lacks to Hitchcock flavor of the later films.
