Giulia y los Tellarini

The song “Barcelona” by the band Giulia y los Tellarini, like Woody Allen‘s film, “Vicky Cristina Barcelona,” explores chance meetings and subsequent love affairs, including one with the Spanish city itself.

“I equate Barcelona with love,” says Giulia Tellarini, singer for Spanish indie band, whose song is featured in the film, which Woody Allen at the Cannes Film Festival called “perfect.” “Barcelona” can be heard in the trailer for “Vicky Cristina Barcelona.”

Giulia y los Tellarini’s first album, “Eusebio,” was released on iTunes in late May. Its music came to Allen’s attention last year during filming, when the girlfriend of one of the band members left a CD with some of the group’s songs on it at the director’s Barcelona hotel, the fashionable Hotel D’Arts.

Vicky Cristina Barcelona

There were rumors that Scarlett Johansson will have a steamy lesbian sex scene with Penelope Cruz in Woody Allen’s ‘Vicky Cristina Barcelona’:

‘It is also extremely erotic. People will be blown away and even shocked. Penelope and Scarlett go at it in a red-tinted photography dark room, and it will leave the audience gasping’.

Woody Allen has dismissed reports that there are “steamy” sex scenes in his new movie.

Woody Allen Can’t Afford Big Stars Like De Niro, Nicholson, Hoffman…

Woody Allen

Woody Allen says Robert De Niro snubbed a chance to work with him because the director couldn’t afford his huge wage demands.

The Oscar-winning filmmaker singled out De Niro, Jack Nicholson and Dustin Hoffman as actors who had turned him down over pay.

“There are plenty of actors and actresses that say they are desperate to work with me but then they are not available or they can’t work for the pay I’m offering.”I couldn’t afford De Niro, Nicholson or Hoffman.”

Allen, 72, makes most of his films on relatively low budgets of around $15 million.

He wanted to get Nicholson or Tom Hanks for the lead role in his film The Curse of the Jade Scorpion” but they both turned him down.

Allen said it’s not just male leads that he has problems casting. Emma Thompson and Reese Witherspoon have both been unsuccessfully approached about roles in his films.

He has been filming in Europe rather than Hollywood for his last four films, saying his productions are better received by audiences there.

Allen made three consecutive films in London – “Match Point“, “Scoop” and “Cassandra’s Dream“. Continue Reading…

‘Vicky Cristina Barcelona’ Reviews

By Fiona | May 18, 2008 | Cannes Film Festival, Movie Reviews (0) Comment

This 61st Cannes Festival is marked by Woody Allen‘s return to the Croisette to present his latest film, Vicky Cristina Barcelona, starring Scarlett Johansson, Penelope Cruz, Rebecca Hall and Javier Bardem, out of Competition. The quintessential Manhattan director is a veteran of the official selection, with Match Point (2005), Hollywood Ending (2002), New York Stories (1989), Radio Days (1987), Hannah and her Sisters (1986), The Purple Rose of Cairo (1985), Broadway Danny Rose (1984), Bonjour Monsieur Lewis (1982), and Manhattan (1979).

As its title indicates, the story is set in the sizzling Catalonian capital. Vicky and Cristina, two young Americans with different attitudes towards love, have come to spend the summer in the Spanish sunshine. They find themselves swept up in a surprising series of sexual adventures with a charismatic artist, Juan Antonio, who is still bound to his ex-wife, the impetuous Maria Elena…

Penelope Cruz and Woody Allen

“When I began writing the script,” recalls Allen, “I had no other intention than to write a story in which Barcelona would be a key character. I wanted to spotlight a city I love a lot. In addition to its fabulous beauty, it is imbued with a very romantic atmosphere. Places like Paris or Barcelona are the only ones where a story like this one could be conceived.”

Regarding the casting, Woody Allen explained: “From time to time, in my professional life, I meet an actress whose qualities inspire me. Scarlett is very intelligent, sexy, and gifted, and she can play a wide range of parts. She also has a sharp wit, and comes up with verbal inventions that dazzle me. As for Penelope, she is a force of nature, like Maria Elena. She’s beautiful, and incredibly sexy in a way that is hers alone. And, of course, she’s an amazing actress. Obviously, I had everything I wanted.”
