Vicky Cristina Barcelona Blu-Ray - New, Ships in 24 Hours

From the Publisher
Oscar winner Javier Bardem ("No Country for Old Men"), Oscar nominee Penelope Cruz ("Volver") and Golden Globe nominee Scarlett Johansson ("The Nanny Diaries") light up the stunning city of Barcelona in this sexy romantic comedy. Vicky and Cristina are two young Americans spending a summer in Spain, who meet a charming "Casanova" and his beautiful but volatile ex-wife. When they all become romantically entangled, the smoldering sparks begin to fly in hilarious fashion. Critics rave, "'Vicky Cristina Barcelona' is one of Woody Allen's finest films, with bravura performances from its incredible cast" (Jeffrey Lyons, Reel Talk/NBC).

Those who have only seen Bardem in his Oscar-winning role as the cold killer in NO COUNTRY FOR OLD MEN will be surprised by his sexy turn in VICKY CRISTINA BARCELONA. Though it's often women who steam up the screen, Bardem seduces Vicky, Cristina, and the audience with such abandon that it's tough for everyone involved not to emerge a little bit smitten. Johansson, Allen's new-millennium muse, is the director's mouthpiece--she's consistently funny and more than a little neurotic, and you can hear Allen's voice in her performance.
