'Nine' Poster Debut
Three Very Sexy Women of 'Nine'
I think there are three things the entire world can agree on, collectively, and for the necessity of life. One, we need air to breath. Two, we need water for hydration. And three, Penelope Cruz looks really, really sexy appearing on the poster for Rob Marshall's "Nine." (See evidence via our poster debut above).
OK...so maybe the third one is a stretch but I'll place Miss Cruz right up there with air and water because I watch movies for a living and I'm not hungry right now. Breath, drink, Cruz. That's my excuse.
Kidding aside, Cruz seems the perfect actress to envision a spin on the classic "8 1/2" (she's the Sophia Loren of our time), and she's a fantastic talent, one of the best working so really, she doesn't need to amp up the va-va voom. But it's certainly nice when she does.
That being said, the movie already has loads of sex appeal going for it. Adapted from the original 1982 Broadway production (music and lyrics by Maury Yeston) which won five Tony Awards including Best Musical, "Nine" is the story of world famous film director Guido Contini (Daniel Day-Lewis) who is dealing with a serious mid-life crisis -- creatively, intellectually, and mistress-y (not a word but it works in this case). The many women of his life, include his wife (Marion Cotillard), his mistress (Penelope Cruz), his muse (Nicole Kidman), his friend and costume designer (Judi Dench), a lovely fashion journalist (Kate Hudson), a prostitute he fondly recalls (Fergie) and of course, his mother (Sophia Loren).
There will be a lot to chew on, listen to, and of course look at here. And Sophia Loren on the big screen again! That's always a plus.
But for now, bambinos, here's the poster. I'm sure more gorgeous images will follow this one.
"Nine" opens soon, Dec. 25, Christmas day. Buon Natale!
