Almodovar es un buén cinéfilo, "Átame" no es más que un homenaje castizo de una de las grandes películas de William Wyler, "El coleccionista", obra personal e incontestable de uno de los grandes directores clásicos.

Aún siendo de resultado bastante irregular, resulta un film curioso y original gracias a un planteamiento bizarro y de desbordante frescura, con unos actores entregados a la causa, donde cabe destacar a Antonio Banderas, justo antes de emprender su aventura Americana, y, por supuesto, al grán Paco Rabal, siempre impecable.

Una rareza.
