Vanessa Erazo, it's my name

When I read that Pedro Almodóvar was premiering his new film, ‘La piel que habito’ (The Skin I Live In), at the New York Film Festival, my cine-nerd heart almost exploded. Then the euphoric glee I had felt was quickly replaced with shock and outrage when I found out the ticket price for the special gala screening is fifty dollars. I could already hear my mom yelling at me: “No lo puedo creer! You spent fifty dollars on a pinche movie?”
