I have to mention one scene in particular that has stuck in my mind, one of the sisters enters a room where a lot of female mourners are sitting dressed in black from head to toe, an aerial shot shows them swooping in on the sister like a murder of crows. The shot then switches to a side view and again, they are like scavengers feeding off carrion, swooping in and out in quick succession offering their commiserations.

It's only later on that the sisters find out that they have lived up to this depiction as crows, while putting on their mourning gowns and lamenting the dearly departed they have also been busy scavenging whatever they could from the house of the deceased. 

An excellent use of symbolism from Almodvar and just one of many memorable moments from Volver.
