The Dynamic Duo At It Again
Internationally acclaimed Spanish director Pedro Almodóvar has announced actress Penélope Cruz will be joining the cast of his next project titled “Los Abrazos Rotos” (”Broken Hugs”).
The film tells the tale of a crazy love set in the days of black and while cinema of the 1950s, combined with the 1990s.
“As for Penelope, I’m going to delve into one of her little-known facets,” Almodovar said of the Spanish actress, who was nominated for an Oscar for best actress for her role in his most recent film, “Volver.” “This won’t be a comedy, but humor will be present.”
This movie will surely be another Almodóvar classic. I’m not yet convinced that America knows Penélope acting potential, and instead see her as just another pretty face. But together these two create true cinema magic.
