Spanish filmmaker, a director, screenwriter, composer and actor, noted as a leading figure in the new Spanish cinema. Almodóvar's films have gained worldwide interest and developed a cult following. Original record gave 24 September 1951 at 22:00 hours, rated A (from memory) giving the following source notes: "Joan Ferrater quotes his mom in Mercurio-3 4/1991, Calzada de Calatrava. La Mancha given in Katz Film book." However, in October 2009 this record was changed to DD based on conflicting information. An article by Josep Sandoval found online at Lavanguardia.es by an astro.com member suggests that Almodovar took two years off his birth year and that confusion about his birth date stems from his birth certificate: Pedro Mercedes Almodóvar Caballero llegó al mundo en 1949, en el número 38 de la calle Urbano Morales. La hora del alumbramiento es una incógnita: extrañamente está escrita en letra y no en números como es habitual. Y señalan que nació en la hora veintinueve del día 25. Tal vez por lo extraño e inusual de la hora inscribieron el día 25 en lugar del 24." (from http://www.lavanguardia.es/gente-y-tv/noticias/20090924/53790743215/pedro-almodovar-cumple-60-anos-aunque-dice-tener-58-almodovar-pedro-almodovar-cannes-oscar-bruce-spr.html). While Almodovar has been quoted as saying he was born "in the 1950s," (for example, in Frederic Strauss's book, "Almodovar on Almodovar" ), Marvin D'Lugo's biography "Pedro Almodovar" (p. 12) provides 25 September 1949 as his birth date.
