Agrado's monologue was based on a real life event. When the electronic system of an Argentinian theater failed, the director suspended the show. Actress Lola Membrives decided to give the news to the audience and make them an offer: if they'd stay, they could listen to the narration of her life.
All authors mentioned in the movie are famously gay writers: Truman Capote, Tennessee Williams and Federico García Lorca.
Pedro Almodóvar dedicated his movie to Bette Davis, Gena Rowlands and Romy Schneider.
Pedro Almodóvar recreates the accident scene from John Cassavetes' Opening Night (1977) as the epicenter of the dramatic conflict.
Ranked number 32 non-English-speaking film in the critics' poll conducted by the BBC in 2018.
"Agrado: Well, as I was saying, it costs a lot to be authentic, ma'am. And one can't be stingy with these things because you are more authentic the more you resemble what you've dreamed of being."
"Manuela: I'm not a whore. I've been fucked around a lot, but I'm not a whore."
