Scarlett Johansson Indulges Animal Instincts

Spanish perversions and a major Woody dominated our last two posts, but imagine getting both from one film. Yes, we can! In Vicky Cristina Barcelona, the luscious Scarlett Johansson travels to Spain and opts for burning passionate love over secure committed love. Companion-to-drool-for Rebecca Hall advocates a safe approach but can't stop her friend from jumping into a three-way with pseudo-poetic caveman Javier Bardem and his fiery pistol-waving ex Penelope Cruz. Director Woody Allen amuses and seduces with flamenco guitar, rustic architecture, sensual food and a crazy little thing called love.
