The movie trailer for Woody Allen’s Vicky Cristina Barcelona has hit the web, in preparation of the film’s premiere at Cannes. The story follows “two young American women, Vicky (Rebecca Hall) and Cristina (Scarlett Johansson) come to Barcelona for a summer holiday. Vicky is sensible and engaged to be married; Cristina is emotionally and sexually adventurous. In Barcelona, they’re drawn into a series of unconventional romantic entanglements with Juan Antonio (Javier Bardem), a charismatic painter, who is still involved with his tempestuous ex-wife Maria Elena (Penélope Cruz). Set against the luscious Mediterranean sensuality of Barcelona, Vicky Cristina Barcelona is Woody Allen’s funny and open-minded celebration of love in all its configurations.”
It certainly looks like Woody Allen’s sexiest movie. I’m sure a lot of men will check it out just for the scene where Scarlett Johansson and Penelope Cruz get it on. And apparently there’s apparently a sexy threesome scene between Bardem, Johansson and Cruz. Although there is something creepy about knowing that Woody Allen is standing behind the camera. Wait, didn’t he write this movie too? If you were a 72-year-old famous Hollywood director, what’s to stop you from essentially writing a dream porn where you could cast your fantasy starlets. I’m sure we’ll hear more about the movie when it premieres at Cannes.
Vicky Cristina Barcelona arrives in theaters on August 29th 2008.
Discuss: What do you think of the Vicky Cristina Barcelona movie trailer?

come for the woody, stay for the threesome.

I thought a threesome gave you a woody, not the other way around.

I heard the alternate title for this was - Watch Javier Bardem Shag A Load Of Women In Barcelona. After seeing the trailer, I wish they kept the original title…

I thought Woody was gonna make something different this time but then theres that gun shot at the end with Cruz….
woody’s making the same shit as usual. I love the guy with more than all my heart but his morality tales post match point have gotten tired. Scoop was match point the comedy. Cassandra’s Dream was a tragic family tale. This looks like theres gonna be some type of jealousy murder thing. Or maybe not at all and that was ajoke… but Woody has a wide veriety of talents and I wish he was being more original like he usually is.
But the trailer may be misleading. I loved the song but it might be covering the images of a bland movie. Nothing in the film seemed too exciting but there is some beautiful scenery and some super sexy people doing super sexy things. So who knows. I hope Woody can blow us away.

i wonder if alot of STD’s get passed around hollywood…

If there’s a lot of T&A in this (as the trailer promises), add an extra point to the overall score. Therefore this film will get 1/10

I’m sure Woody will not disappoint. I’ve loved his last few films and am looking forward to seeing what he does with Spain and such a talented cast. (And, as a response, I think the cinematography looks amazing - Woody usually works with the world’s best D.P.s and his films always look beautiful.)

Scarlett just keeps getting sexier and sexier. ( ^_^ ) The movie looks pretty lame though, this not coming from just a guy perspective, but if all they can show in a trailer is make-out scenes and an angry Penelope Cruz shooting a single shot from a revolver, I’ll pass.

Critics at Cannes have given it nothing but rave reviews, saying the film is a return to Woody at his best, so some of you might just have to eat your words. Every time I come to a film site which allows commenting, all I read are negative comments from people who haven’t even seen the film in question (any film, not just this one). What a bunch of bores.
