Production
Second Skin is a Antena 3 Televisión, Lolafilms and Vía Digital production.[2] Filming began in March 1999 in Madrid.[3] Shooting locations also included Benicàssim.[4] The screenplay was penned by Gerardo Vera alongside Ángeles González-Sinde.[5] Other production duties were tasked to Julio Madurga (cinematography) and Roque Baños (score).[6]
Reception
Reviewing for Miami New Times, David Ehrenstein compared the film to Making Love (1982), considering that the film "is less sexually skittish than its predecessor, and a lot less reassuring about the marital dissolution in the wake of homosexual self-discovery".[7] The review in Fotogramas scored the film with 3 out of 5 stars, considering the performances by Bardem and Gil to be the best about the film, while citing the "over-emphatic" musical score as a negative point.[6]
