Penélope Cruz on Pedro Almodóvar and their new movie


UP NEXT for Penelope is "Broken Embraces," once again paired with Pedro Almodovar. She raves over her friend, "He is a genius. He writes the most incredible roles for women. In this one, 'Broken Embraces,' I am an actress playing two roles, one comedy, one drama, one real-life, one the movie she is making. A movie-within-a-movie. It's complex, mind-blowing. I am so lucky to have him in my life."

What happened to the "old" plot this movie was supposed to have?

Though this new one sounds equally interesting, I'm just wondering why this film isn't going to be that "tale of revenge" that I believe Variety reported it would be about a year ago. Was that just a rumour up until now, or did Almodovar have a change of heart?

Is my last reply missing or am I getting crazy???
Hmmm... Makes me think...

It's also a tale of revenge actually. I won't reveal anything else though, so don't worry. I really liked this film, even though it has its flaws, particularly concerning the screenplay. An 8/10 for now.
