Chronic Disastisfaction
My favorite scene in this film that has always stood out for me since the first time I saw it is when Cristina comes in the kitchen to break up with Juan Antonio and Maria Elena. That's the one scene in the film that you just can't write. Penelope and Javier showed their acting chops in that scene alone. I love that entire scene - the lines in English and in Spanish. Penelope cursing at her in Spanish is so sexy and beautiful. And she says it with such passion and fury. I've only seen this movie a few times, but I've seen the kitchen breakup scene dozens of times. It was probably such a great scene because the narrator was nowhere to be found- thank God!! Penelope and Javier just sold it in that scene. Seriously, those two should be in more films together. They wouldn't even need to say anything. Just have them step of out a hot shower wearing nothing but white towels and look at each other for two hours. They could say so much without saying a word!! LOLOL Hot damn!! I loved the scene where he makes the bed for Maria Elena her first night back and then in the kitchen during the break up scene. Oh the massage in the park was hot too. Lucky Penelope. (that bitch)
I specifically reminded her - bedside table! On the Kangaroo!
