Decorating Ideas to Steal From the Set of Broken Embraces
Broken Embraces opens tomorrow in the US, and I'm so excited to see Penelope Cruz working again with director Pedro Almodovar. The film follows an aspiring actress who's secretly in love with a director, but is stagnating in a bad marriage. It's also chock-full of fun, colorful interior design ideas.
Penelope Leaves Javier in Bali to Embrace Pedro in Rome
Penelope Cruz joined Pedro Almodovar in Rome on Saturday for a Broken Embraces photo call at the city's famous Trevi Fountain. She's back on the promotional trail after a brief detour to Bali, where she met up with Javier Bardem at the beach during one of his breaks from filming Eat, Pray, Love. Penelope has been the subject of many rumors about her personal life recently, but she's going to be all business for the next few months with her travels on behalf of her film with Pedro and the upcoming Nine and she was already at LAX again yesterday.
Movie Preview: Broken Embraces
Broken Embraces looks like classic Pedro Almodovar: a sweeping story with a heavy dose of film noir, beautiful to look at, and a dazzling Penelope Cruz. There's a reason the director and his muse always work together — he brings out her strongest performances; she serves as a captivating leading lady. (She even got an Academy Award nomination for his film Volver.)
If the trailer for Broken Embraces is any indication, Cruz may just have critics whispering Oscar again.
Penelope Finds Embraces All Around NYC
Penelope Cruz had a whirlwind weekend of promoting Broken Embraces in NYC. The Vogue cover girl stepped out in a black leather jacket on Friday and a striped shirt the next afternoon for errand-running, but by Saturday evening Penlope was decked out in a sparkly white gown to be honored at a dinner hosted by Paper magazine. Her late night didn't slow her down yesterday, when she did press in a plaid dress before switching into a gray gown for a premiere with director Pedro Almodovar.
Penelope Embraces Her Curves
Penelope Cruz and Pedro Almodovar went to dinner at Nobu in London on Saturday before heading to Berlin, where they had a Broken Embraces photo call and premiere today. Her outfits were subdued in comparison to the bright red suit she wore to last week's London premiere, and she stopped her trend of loose-fitting clothing with this afternoon's fitted green gown. Her previous flowy outfits sparked rumors that she is pregnant, but her rep denied the stories and her latest dress just might halt gossip for the moment.
Penelope and Pedro Embrace Each Other Once Again
Penelope Cruz dressed to match the red carpet at the UK premiere of Broken Embraces earlier today. She looked gorgeous, but her loose-fitting suit won't squash the pregnancy rumors. Whether or not Penelope has some good news to share in her personal life, she's got plenty to smile about career-wise.
Penelope and Pedro Bring Their Embraces to Cannes
Penelope Cruz glowed by Pedro Almodovar's side at the Broken Embraces photo call in Cannes earlier today. Looking refreshed, she posed for photographers and chatted with the press about the differences between Pedro and Woody Allen. She has been a good sport after food poisoning put a damper on her first day at the festival, but at least she has her great friend to lean on if she needs him on the red carpet.
Movie-to-TV: Almodovar's Women on the Verge of a Nervous Breakdown
I should really watch Pedro Almodovar's Women on the Verge of a Nervous Breakdown again. Actually, I should have just bought that Almodovar collection for myself around the holidays because I don't remember a ton about it besides the fact that I really enjoyed it and I swooned over the skinny, baby-faced version of Antonio Banderas. Today there's another reason to rewatch the madcap comedy: Fox TV Studios is developing an hour-long, English-language TV series based on the movie.
Penelope and Pedro Put Their Friendship on Display
Penelope Cruz posed for another Spanish magazine, and this time Pedro Almodovar joined her for the April cover of Vanity Fair. The pair has been in nonstop promotional mode for Broken Embraces, and their close relationship shines through in the interview. Penelope never misses a moment to talk about her love and admiration for Almodovar, including in her Oscar acceptance speech last month.
Penelope Still Has Plenty of Embraces For Pedro
Penelope Cruz dazzled in her long black gown at the premiere of Broken Embraces in Madrid last night. The actress has a long road of promoting ahead of her, but she has Pedro Almodovar by her side to keep her company along the way. We'll have to wait for Penelope to take her gorgeous red carpet looks to the states, but we can enjoy her glamorous magazine spreads until then.
