Trivia
Initially, this movie was entitled "C'est magnifique" and the numbers were intended to be mimed. This seemed awful to Emilio Martínez Lázaro and he decided that the songs had to be sung by the actors themselves.

Alternate versions
The DVD of the film contains several deleted scenes not seen in the theatrical release of the movie. These include:
Pilar singing "Me Cuelgas El Telefono" after Pedro hangs up on her.
Javier trying to convince someone on the telephone to let him use their house in the mountains for an illicit rendezvous with Paula.
An extended "melon boy" scene.
Pilar talking about how her and Pedro communicate without words.
Pilar telling Pedro she will wait for his love.

Smart, Spanish comedy about infidelity

This movie is well written, well directed, well acted, and fresh.

The sex is integral to the movie, and only modest amounts of skin are shown.

This is great comedy.

It's subtle, and deserves a viewing.

You are at first drawn into a plot involving infidelity, but the behavior slowly spreads to all four of the primary characters, and by movie's end the entanglements are complete and there is much fun to be had.

Do rent this.
