Pedro Almodóvar talks about reuniting with the people he's worked with before

Talking about working with the actors, he shares that, "It's always easier I mean, with the time because you invest, this is like investment. I mean, just to have the experience of directing them and to be understood by them and to understand them, makes everything easier at the moment of shooting. They are like part of my family because I am used to seeing them. We became friends a long time ago. It's always wonderful if I write something that they can do, of course they are the first ones to be called."
