Actresses (1996)
Director: Ventura Pons
Movie review
From Time Out Film Guide
Three middle-aged actresses, former disciples of a legendary diva, reunite to mull over their loves, lives, differences and similarities. This Catalan feature, from a play by JM Benet i Jornet, is unimaginatively directed and betrays its stage origins at every turn. It also looks as if made for TV. Solid but less than remarkable performances.Author: GA
