Women on the Verge of a Nervous Breakdown is a very funny, easy to like film (and you'll never look at gazpacho the same way again) although I think it is set in Madrid and not Barcelona.

I liked Barcelona.
ETA: Women on the Verge is definitely Madrid.

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?
Women on the Verge was Madrid, and I need some gazpacho now. Not the kind in the movie.

I need a circa-1988 Antonio Banderas.

Is this for your trip? Have you read Shadow of the Wind? A colleague here also recommend The Time of the Doves.

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!
Have you read Shadow of the Wind?
No, but it's on my list! Maybe I'll move it up. Not sure I'll have time, though, since it's pretty long and I think I'm going to read the Hunger Games books in August.

You should know I'm a big deal in the Resistance.
mwah ha ha. I have gazpacho in my fridge right now, but it's Al Pastor (white) not Andaluz (red). I can't believe I haven't seen Women on the Verge yet.

Well, that's settled then. A friend of mine keeps talking about Whit Stillman anyway, so it'll be good to know what he's going on about.
I always forget how we roll, though: you hate Lost in Translation like I do, but you ALSO hate Magnolia, right?
