Abstract

Famous Spanish director Pedro Almodóvar has always been a controversial character, whose films are always exaggerated and strange and spare no efforts in demonstrating human’s primitive desire, passion and violence. He is adept in exhibiting a new women image that is diverse and non-conventional to the public. Therefore, most of the studies on the images in Almodóvar’s films are about women. Nevertheless, his Bad education tells a story from a male’s perspective and the main characters are mostly male, which make it different from his other works. This paper uses Bad education as the subject and focuses on the analysis of the features of the male characters in the film, hoping to study the characteristics of how Almodóvar portrays male images.
