Hey, he's on EW's top 25 active directors this should be good!

Well, well, just a few minutes after we learn Pedro Almodóvar is one of Entertainment Weekly's top 25 active directors he get a teaser trailer for his new film Broken Embraces (Los Abrazos Rotos) afilm starring Oscar nominee Penélope Cruz as the two pick up where they left off with Volver.

Broken Embraces is described as 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.

Check out the teaser below and stay tuned as hopefully Sony Pictures Classics will release some images and an official release date soon.
