I'm excited to see it. His movies are so sticky on the mind.
I know exactly what you mean about Penelope Cruz. The earliest thing I saw her in was Belle Epoque, where her underdeveloped face didn't have quite the detail of subsequent films, yet she was still remarkably beautiful. Later, in Volver, I had the same impression as you... I thought I could see signs of her aging, and it was nice to see her in a more voluptuous, maternal role for a change. But like two years later she played a young woman in Elegy and she was flawless. It's kind of amazing to see.
