There are plenty of movies we’re hoping we’ll make the red carpet at Cannes, but one that’s almost a near certainty is Pedro Almodovar’s “Julieta.” The filmmaker is back three years after his not so well received “I’m So Excited!” and five years following his underrated “The Skin I Live In.” Today we get our biggest peek yet at what he’s pulled together with a batch of new photos.

Formerly titled “Silencio,” changed to avoid confusion with Martin Scorsese’s “Silence,” Almodovar’s movie details the tumultuous life of Julieta across 30 years, from 1985 to 2015. Emma Suárez and Adriana Ugarte are in the lead roles, with Inma Cuesta, Rossy de Palma, Nathalie Poza, Pilar Castro, Darío Grandinetti, Daniel Grao, Joaquín Notario, and Blanca Parés co-starring.
"Julieta" opens in Spain on April 8th and will be released in the U.S. by Sony Pictures Classics.
Law of desire is one that I revisit every now and then. Talk to her is just beautiful storytelling; the part of the silent film The shrinking lover is really ingenious. The skin I live in had a similar impact to that of Bad education, but I find that both are great films that treat very serious and heavy subjects with respect and great dramatic timing. His films are always welcome, especially in a time of superheroes.
@AJ The Skin I Live In is great, but Volver is easily his best 🙂
When everyone else are waiting for Batman v Superman, I\’m literally salivating over this. I want it now.
Thank you! The Skin I Live In is ridiculously underrated. It\’s tied with Talk to Her for his best ever.
