Review of Vicky Cristina Barcelona (2008) by Andre T — 29 Jul 2011
Written and directed by Woody Allen, and starring Javier Bardem, Penélope Cruz, Scarlett Johansson and Rebecca Hall. The plot centers on two American women, Vicky (Hall) and Cristina (Johansson), who spend a summer in Barcelona, where they meet an artist who is attracted to both of them while still enamored of his mentally and emotionally unstable ex-wife María Elena (Cruz).
The film was shot in Avilés, Barcelona, and Oviedo, and was Allen's fourth consecutive film shot outside of the United States.Very elegant, charming and climatic, Allen uses the city of Barcelona with maestry in all ways, specially the cinematography.
The music is exquisit and all the cast is exceptional, specially Penelope.Great movie!
