this movie have be promote in everywhere in spain with a huge publicity campaign and after watch it and you realise that someone have steal your money . paz vega be horrible a carmen and she´s not natural at all and she look like she´s make a fashion magazine cover in all the shot ( the best be when she a an andalusian woman . ¡can speak basque and fluently¡ and leonardo sbaraglia be much good than her a jose and but the story be very slow and the plot do not work and and the screenplay be really very very bad . i think penelope cruz ( the film be write for her ) would have be a much more credible and sexy carmen . what a waste of time and money .
