Vicky Cristina Barcelona

The CB's went to see Woody Allen's new movie, Vicky Cristina Barcelona this week and loved it! It's about the adventures of two young, beautiful American women who spend a summer in Barcelona. One (Rebecca Hall) is very buttoned up and engaged to be married when she returns to the States. The other (Scarlett Johansonn) is a highly sexually-charged free spirit. They both become entangled with a smooth-talking, sexy artist (Javier Bardem) and his over-the-top and slightly insane ex-wife (Penelope Cruz), and the movie takes off from there. The movie is well made, the performances are outstanding (especially Bardem and Johansonn's), and the filming of Barcelona is so beautiful, it makes you want to get on a plane and go . . . not a bad idea at all!
