I was inclined to rewrite the plot summary, as it just barely fits with the movie (Carmen being Juan's childhood friend is never really explained in the film, but fine; and Sol never exactly exposes the affair so much as she just doesn't try to hide it, but sure, whatever. It just squeaks by in accuracy. If anyone thinks of a better way to describe the plot, maybe who has seen the movie more than I have (I saw it last night for the first time) then I might recommend you rewerite it.--68.35.94.119 22:31, 11 November 2006 (UTC)

The summary is brief but seems accurate. Juan's mother clearly describes Carmen as Juan's friend from childhood when he sees her for the first time in years (she'd been away at covent school), and I got the sense that Dona Sol did have that one last fling with Juan because she knew there was a good chance Juan's wife and mother would turn up the next morning. (She sure was gloating when they did in fact show up). But if you or anyone else has anything to add, go ahead :) 69.156.103.29 01:39, 28 November 2006 (UTC)
