These are just three of the aberrant inhabitants in Almodovar's early '80s Madrid, a depraved, soap-operatic world of street queens, exiled princes, transvestite punks, artificial-insemination doctors, sensitive nymphos, mourning psychos and angry terrorists, who are enjoying (or desperately trying to enjoy) a tiny golden period of sexual adventurousness between the dissolution of Franco's authoritarian regime and the onset of AIDS consciousness.
（上文提到的）这只是属于阿尔莫多瓦的80年代早期的马德里。它成了一个颓废、肥皂剧般的社会，装载着落迫街头的皇后、流亡的王子、易装癖朋克分子、人工受精医生、神经质的慕男狂、哀怨的心理医生和怒气冲天的恐怖分子。他们都在享受着，或者说不顾一切地享受着，那段弗朗哥专政统治时期后和艾滋病意识来袭前的那段短暂但宝贵的性爱探索旅程。
In light of Almodovar's subsequent, more assured works, from "Law of Desire" to "Women on the Verge of a Nervous Breakdown," "Labyrinth" comes across as mere rehearsal. But for the right crowd, in the right frame of mind, this movie has more than its share of funny, even poignant moments.
从阿尔莫多瓦后来更有把握的作品来看，此片仅仅是一次预演。但是倘若遇到合乎口味的观众，合乎口味的观念，这部电影就不会仅仅是乱搞，甚至有那么一些令人心醉的时刻。
