So, 'El cianuro… ¿solo o con leche?' is quite a peculiar piece, isn't it? Set in a dilapidated house in Badajoz during the winter of 1925, it weaves together dark comedy with absurdity. You’ve got Laura and her mother Adela, who’s in a wheelchair, contemplating the end of their grumpy, senile grandfather's life. The performances are a bit quirky, but they add to that unsettling atmosphere. The pacing has this strange rhythm, sometimes dragging, other times ratcheting up the tension with unexpected moments. It’s got practical effects that feel grounded, giving it an old-world charm. The themes of morality and family dynamics wrapped in comedy are intriguing, making it a distinctive watch for those who appreciate Spanish cinema.
