Poster for Almodovar's 'Broken Embraces'
Why must I wait until November?
Okay, so it doesn't have ectoplasm goo as does the new motion poster for The Haunting in Connecticut and it is actually a bit redundant, but since I am anxiously awaiting the November 6 release of Pedro Almodovar's Broken Embraces this new poster as found by The Film Experience keeps the movie in the spotlight if only for a minute.
The film reteams Almodovar with Penelope Cruz and the plot itself gives you a little more insight into the design:
Broken Embraces is a four-way tale of amour-fou, shot in the style of '50s American film noir at its most hard-boiled, and will mix references to works like Nicholas Ray's "In a Lonely Place" and Vincente Minnelli's "The Bad and the Beautiful," with signature Almodóvar themes such as Fate, the mystery of creation, guilt, unscrupulous power, the eternal search of fathers for sons, and sons for fathers.
The international teaser trailer is already available right here, but I am sure it won't be too long before we start to hear more and more as it debuts in Spain on March 18 and has a slow international roll until its end-of-year domestic release.
