Not everything in Spanish cinema revolves around Pedro Almodovar. Basque-Born Julio Medem (Cows, Tierra) is a serious alternative . . Expertly crafted, his film shifts back and forth in perfect parallel form between his protagonists points of views.

The movie is about love -- or, rather, about their grand ideas of romance. It is comforting to think that we can love so powerfully that fate itself wheels and turns at the command of our souls.

Under the midnight sun. It's dreamy and weird.

...large swaths of The Lovers of the Arctic circle aren't quite as wholeheartedly engrossing or captivating as one might've hoped...
