Elles (1999) *
Directed by Luis Galvao Teles. With Carmen Maura, Miou-Miou et Marisa Berenson. Pseudo-feminist drivel about five middle-aged women facing various melodramatic calamities. One falls in love with a younger man, another has a junkie daughter, yet another looses her man to a younger woman, a yet another goes blind... This Portuguese pic should be send back to Lisbon for some fine tuning.
