男主人公巴帕羅對索西麗的不滿導致報複式的跟蹤,無意中偶遇了索西麗的妹妹瑪麗亞,在和瑪麗亞相處的過程中談到了布爾什維克和他20歲前的理想:一個鑽研政治的男人因太過優秀而被選中投身經濟,雖然事業有成但精神空虛頹廢。於是瑪麗亞不斷安慰他“以後你還會繼續研究政治的”,“布爾什維克”便成了瑪麗亞對巴帕羅的愛稱。

劇情簡介
2002年秋天的馬德里。Pablo López,一個平凡的男人,30來歲,在投資銀行上班,對一切感到厭倦。一天早上9點,就在馬德里市中心的一場交通堵塞中,他的車子撞上了富豪小姐的一輛敞篷車。這次事故使他遇上了麻煩,警察和保險公司找他算帳,他心裡更恨不得殺死這個女子。但一天他卻發現自己墮入如詩痴情的愛河,而對象正是女富豪的妹妹,一個僅有15歲的小女孩。
Pablo López is a dull businessman who engages in an unusual relationship with a fourteen-year-old, María. This will change his perception of life in a way he would never have suspected.
Based on a brilliant novel by Lorenzo Silva (who also co-writes the screenplay), the movie is quite loyal to the original text, although some pivotal parts seem to have been lost somewhere in between the novel and the script (the meaning of the title is not explained, for instance). Nevertheless, the writers are to be praised for their marvelous dialogs, which make the characters more real and unaffected.
The two leading actors (Luis Tosar and teen María Valverde) provide excellent performances. Valverde's performance is extremely unaffected for a debut, while Tosar once more shows his natural skill and versatility. It's a pity two fine actresses such as Mar Regueras and Nathalie Poza are left with not much more than a couple of scenes each, but the focus of the story is clearly and understandably set on the leads.
Given that this is only director Martín Cuenca's first film, I am eager to see what he will be directing in the future.
評論
虛弱不如翻譯成無力。我覺得電影的結局是發展中的理所應當,而當巴帕羅和瑪麗亞被那三個小混混挾住的時候,巴帕羅的再三懇求依然無濟於事……這是多么無力的感覺啊。巴帕羅無法留住他的秘書,當高層要他給一個能夠留下他的秘書的理由時,巴帕羅欲語而無語。可以說,秘書被辭,有巴帕羅的一部分原因……但他是無力的,在這個社會他是無力的。他說,他被別人呼來喝去如同妓女……布爾什維克,是多數人的意志,要求正義和平等,但是社會誰能給他平等呢誰能給他力量呢於是他說他要剝奪有權者的全部!還有一些細節,如巴帕羅的童年生活,可以通過他家的舊宅和他覺得最美麗的那個山坡反映出來。
