There is a new Woody Allen film coming out sometime this year called Vicky Cristina Barcelona with Scarlett Johansson, Rebecca Hall, Javier Bardem and Penelope Cruz as the main cast members.
The movie appears to be about two American tourists (Johansson and Hall) visiting Spain who become amorously involved with Cruz and Bardem.
I think most guys wont care about the plot when they find out the film will be a steamy one, with an apparent jaw-dropping love scene between Johansson and….Cruz. Yowsers.
A source told the NY Post:
“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.”
I’m slightly gasping right now and I’ve never seen a second of it.
Now my wife and I of course have our lists, and until Claire Forlani somehow gets knocked off the #1 spot on mine, Scarlett will always be second. Most of her male fans will tell you that she’s never had scene in a film where she’s shown much skin, and somehow I seem to doubt that this will be the first one.
If the idea of a steamy make-out session between Johansson and Cruz got you a little intrigued, the next tidbit might be your cold shower.
I believe Jerry Seinfeld said it best…I’m not sure, but I believe it’s called a “menage-a-Trois?” There will be one in Vicky, involving Scarlett and Hall.
And while it sounds kind of kinky, the fact that it involves Javier Bardem kind of freaks me out.
After seeing him as a psychotic, bloody killer in No Country for Old Men, I think many people will be scared that in the middle of the scene, he’ll whip out his…cow stun gun and blow a few heads off.
I’ve been a Woody Allen fan for quite a long time, especially after I saw the highly enjoyable Manhattan Murder Mystery, but this one sounds a bit out there.
Although he did Match Point which was way more serious than his usual writing and I completely loved that film.
Vicky was picked up on January 31st by The Weinstein Company, which will distribute it in North America. They sort of dropped the ball on his last movie, Cassandra’s Dream, which didn’t do too well, so it was surprising they jumped at this.
Some think the stardom of Bardem in his award-winning roll in No Country was part of the reason.
This will be their sixth film made together.









This is a family blog, so I’m not putting up a link to the Scarlett Jo/Dita Von Teese photo shoot. Good thing kids can’t use Google.
Scarlett isn’t nude in the shoot, but…well…if you haven’t seen them you should.

I’ve seen them…not for me. A little freaky. Mike might like them since he has a thing for ScarJo, I don’t know. Now Claire Forlani…yeah, ever since Meet Joe Black…

I’ve seen those photos…a bit racy, but she’s alright looking anyways
Come on guys…
And Javier Bardem is very handsome when not shooting people.
Anyway, if she is such a huge crush for you, you should know her name is spelled Scarlett Johansson.
I usually like Woody Allen films but not sure if my moral compass is down for this one after what you described. Thanks for the warning!

In case you can’t tell, I’m totally teasing you Mike.
And the misspelling is only in the title not the story.
nicky’s last blog post..No title necessary.
Nicky, you are so right though…man, I think I wrote the title first, then went back and found the correct spelling in the body of it…
For some reason, it’s hard for me to remember how to spell that last name
Glad you pointed it out…thank you!
I like your thoughts on Bardem, I hadn’t thought anyone would think that after No Country, but I think that’s all I’ve seen him in, so he must look pretty normal in other movies
Thanks for the heads up on this one. I’m a simple man with simple needs — Cruz and Johansson hooking up fits the bill quite nicely.

So the first thing I did was Google the photo shoot. Hmmm…interesting, racy sure, but in a tasteful way.

[...] We told you guys about Vicky Cristina Barcelona awhile ago for a few reasons. One, I like Woody Allen a lot, and while I haven’t seen all of his pictures, I’ve loved the few I have been able to watch. [...]
How have I missed this movie? Penelope Cruz and Scarlett Johansson…I’m off to the video store!
