wow!!! penelope is crazy in this one!
i smell oscar nom
I was joking.
They are both two of my favourite directors, it’s just that they don’t happen to know it…
As far as I know Almodóvar was brought up as a Catholic (see Bad Education). I don’t see anything Almodovarish in this vid, actually. Just Bardem and Cruz.
hmmmm both been doing awesome work since the 80’s, also
“I think Woody may be steering into Almodovar’s territory. No? Its a dangerous path to take. They’re both supreme masters of the craft, but aside from female characters with severe neurosis, and cities they love (NY/Madrid) what else do they have in common?”
Ummm…. both Jewish?
Javier Bardem.
WOW
Ok, that out of my system… I think Woody may be steering into Almodovar’s territory. No? Its a dangerous path to take. They’re both supreme masters of the craft, but aside from female characters with severe neurosis, and cities they love (NY/Madrid) what else do they have in common?
judy davis in husbands & wives….WHAT a performance. very bette davis.
Scarlett + Penelope + Bardem + Woody? Must see!
They all look really hot! I loved Match Point, and I hope that this one could be better.
Good Luck Woody Allen!
oi. hope its not the official trailer…
So… there will be snogging…
Most important note: THIS IS NOT A TRAILER!
It’s just a reel that was shown at a film market earlier in the year to garner interest for the movie.
Fantastic. Everyone looks great. Not a fan of episodic direction but this looks like a lot of fun. At the end I had to laugh.
Cool song too.
Oh…and that trailer looks FLAMETHROWER hot.
DAMN. That Javier…
Looks like he’s an awesome kisser.
I run hot and cold on Scarlett. But I’m definitely on her side for now. I was endlessly impressed with her in THE OTHER BOLEYN GIRL and I STILL think she should’ve had an Oscar nomination for Match Point. She is a much better actor than people give her credit for. I think there may well be a time when she lives up to her glorious potential.
I think this generation of film stars needs a strong, sexy, fascinating woman that can act. You know, THAT particular combination. RRA said it brilliantly in the other thread. Scarlett is far above the Albas and the Biels who are basically just generating tabloid fodder. Ms. Biel may be capable of more at some point. I doubt seriously that Ms. Alba will ever be.
So maybe people could give Scarlett a break – at least until we see exactly what she’s got?
WOODY ALLEN is my favourite director of all time and I was also born in the 80s. Anybody that overlooks his brilliance obviously hasn’t seen PLAY IT AGAIN SAM, SLEEPER, MANHATTAN, HUSBANDS & WIVES, INTERIORS or HANNAH & HER SISTERS. (I could go on…) The impact that he’s had on post 60s cinema is incredibly impressive.
If he’s not your deal, that’s fine. BUT see the films and have an opinion. AT LEAST.
Woah.
Must see.
I couldn’t help but laugh at the unending make-out scenes.
Bang.
“And in all of these films, she’s paired with sexy guys (Jackman, Rhys-Meyers, and now Bardem) that are the antithesis of Woody.”
At this late stage in his life, they kinda have to be.
Scarlett sex fantasies? In Match Point, she’s an incredibly annoying shrew who is so manipulative that she must be killed…no real fantasy there. Then there is Scoop, which has nothing but a relatively chaste relationship between her and Jackman and a sexless friendship between her and Woody. And in all of these films, she’s paired with sexy guys (Jackman, Rhys-Meyers, and now Bardem) that are the antithesis of Woody. So I think that’s you bringing your own judgments rather than looking at things clearly. I get that his off-screen proclivities has clouded many peoples’ judgments, but Woody is a storyteller and a filmmaker and I don’t see how his use of one actress whose work he admires is indicative of anything more than being a fan of her work.
It’s like how many different ways can Woody live out his Scarlett sex fantasies, lol. Well I guess I have to say, don’t know it ’til you tried it!
Te quiero Barcelona !!
Wierdest city in Europe.
Of course there is a plot in this movie.
And an award to Scarlett, please, either in Cannes or at the Academy next year.
“there’s a plot to this soft porn film, right?”
Word.
Gaudi-wonderful. looks like fun.
Plot? who needs a plot?! Johansson, Cruz and BARDEM…hmmm…I’ll go see a movie starring their cardboard cutouts! And the award for Hottest cast goes to….now I’m all hot and bothered…need a cold shower
Umm… there’s a plot to this soft porn film, right?
Maybe it’s Johansson, the sex scenes or the final shot, but somehow it reminds me of Match Point. Let’s hope it’s as good.
I’ll definitely be watching it.
Ugh. Horrible. But I guess the movie will be good… but the trailer is horrible, it seems Almodovarish, pre-Women on the Verge of a Nervous Breakdown.
MUST SEE INDEED.
