Lynn Hirschberg from The New York Times Magazine sat down recently with “Vicky Cristina Barcelona” star Penélope Cruz for TMagazine (the NYT fashion mag). It’s another one of those slick black and white jobs like the “Pineapple Express” interviews from last week.
The first half she spends talking about her relationship with director Pedro Almodóvar. They’ve just finished up production on “Los Abrazos Rotos,” their fourth film together. Then she gets into Woody and “Vicky.” Apparently “Deconstructing Harry” is her favorite Allen flick.
She’s so infectious. Have a look (though the black-on-black makes for a strange floating head thing):

“Broken Embraces” is my #1 most anticipated film of 2009. Bar none.
Fantastic interview, thanks for sharing it. I really hope she lands her second nomination.
