Movie Review: Vicky Cristina Barcelona

Written and Directed by Woody Allen



This film (I don't really want to classify it as a movie) was artistic on many different levels. Set in Barcelona Spain it chronicles the romatic involvement bewteen two American women on holiday and a Spanish painter. Their love triangle grows as former spouses and new marriges complicate the equation. Thematicly speaking the director does a good job of showing how love is what we make it, and does not always fit into the sterotypes placed upon it by today's society. It was a very artistic film and the colors of Spain along the references to various pieces of art and architecture add something special to the theme of the movie. The acting is not noticable as it should be with any great film. It reminded me of a foreign film that movie buffs refer too all the time, but you never actually watch. Im very glad I sat down and saw this movie.

Watch it for yourself. [HERE]
