Penelope Cruz: "I wanted to be like Maya Plisetskaya! "


Penelope Cruz: This was my second meeting with graceful as a deer in the headlights, hot Spanish girl. The first - three years ago - also happened in Cannes, however, on the occasion of a bad film Fanfan the Tulip" produced by Luc Besson. Then dressed in a pink suit from Chanel Penelope impressed me, to be honest, quite a sour impression. Breaking away from his native soil, and language, she seemed to be holding, lost, uninteresting and not too self-confident - just like in Hollywood movies, in which she pretty badly played.


This year everything was different. Penelope has changed and flourished both as a woman and as an actress. Presented in Cannes is a great film by Pedro Almodovar "Return", which probably played one of his best roles, earning flattering and fair comparison with such great Actresses like Anna Magnani and Sophia Loren. A bright red dress it snapped in the wind, and I had a wonderful opportunity to see her very long and beautiful legs, which - thanks to the sea breeze from time to time opened a little more than she wanted it Penelope.




Pedro has increased me "centre of gravity"





- Almodóvar excitedly told me how he added some weight parts of your beautiful body.
Penelope frowns, and instructive raises a finger:


- Only one part! My ass. I have it too fine! Because since childhood I studied ballet and because all such air. The main expressive part of my body - arms.




It is very important to weight the bottom of my heroine, Raimondi, because she is very down to earth woman. When I tried on dresses with overlaid backwards, everything fell into place. It was extremely helpful posture has changed, I became a different move. But everything else you see on the screen, my natural! these are the words on his knees Penelope smartphone with a crash fell to the floor, she leaned over to him to raise, and I looked in deep neckline Spanish beauties, fully convinced of its correctness. In the course of our conversation Penelope repeatedly dropped my phone and every time I was happily convinced that her bust Almodovar increase was not necessary.





You on top of your beauty. Feel it when you look at yourself in the mirror?
"No, when I look at myself in the mirror, I think: "too much work". But when I watch "the Return", I see not only what Pedro pulled out of me as of an actress, but as filming me his camera. I felt very loved.





- Your face is on the cover of all glamour magazines. And in the movies you best manage the role of ordinary women.
As an actress it is important for me to change. For example, in the Italian film "don't go" I looked horrible because my role demanded. And I'm proud of this role. Much more important to me freedom than the ability to see myself on the cover!





- "Don't leave" Sergio Castellito - tragic love story of a married prosperous surgeon and poor, unlucky cleaners - was an excellent film. And your role in it - like a rehearsal of "Return"?
I had to play in Italian, without an accent. With the teacher's language we almost killed each other. He was very tolerant, but nerves could not stand. We had just a month. Because the learning process was like a military camp. But, when we have achieved the desired result, I was happy.




Everything about her mother





- On assignment Almodovar you had to study the masterpieces of Italian neorealism with Anna Magnani and Claudia Cardinale, who created unforgettable images of mothers.
I watched them before, this is my favorite films. It was for me and homework, and a lot of fun. As Anna Magnani and Meryl Streep, in my opinion, the two best Actresses in the history of cinema. But the task to imitate them, I was not.





- The main thing in the film Almodovar - relations Raimondi with the Ghost of her mother. And what is your relationship with your mother?
- Stunning! She is very young, she is only 52 years. So we are very close, Encarna is my best friend. When I was a kid, we didn't have a lot of money. Parents had to work hard to earn us for food, clothes and education. I understand heroines "Return", to me and most had to suffer and to seek a way out of all these difficulties. All I saw in my childhood, these women, their work. I looked at them and realized that also going to plow all my life. So, in General, and succeeded.




- But now you can make the whole family comfortable existence! You for a couple of months earn more than they are for life.


It's great that now I can travel with her mother. In childhood we also traveled four hours by bus. It was fine, but now I can show her the world!





By nature I am a lioness


- You want children? What kind of mother would you be?


Every day I think about it, even from childhood! Would like two or three children, and maybe even more! But now I have too much work, live alternately in the two countries. I just turned 32, so that time is still full!





- Raimund takes offense daughter. And what would you go for the sake of the child?
When it comes to my family, I turn into a lioness! By nature I am a defender. Become a mother for friends, relatives, even parents, in all their care. My brother Eduardo, for example, although he is a big boy - he was 21 years old. He is a musician, his songs entered the charts in Latin music. We never showered each other their feelings, but suddenly he wrote a song about me and my sister. Admitted to us in love! This is the most amazing gift that I have in my life.




- "The return" is a painting about the relationship of people with death. You think about death?


"I don't want to die young. Or in some extreme situation. Don't want to feel the pain - physical or mental. But I think that death is the continuation of life.




- Believe in ghosts?


"No, but something there is clearly found after death. If not, then life has no meaning. That is all. I even thought this does not presume that all ends of the earth life!





A strong woman foibles



Who for you Almodovar, from which you removed for the third time?
- My favorite Director. No, the artist! His films literally changed my life - thanks to them I became an actress. Pedro is one of the most important people in my life. As a father, brother or sister. I'm not talking about the fact that this Director. About how three months we were working with him every word of the script. About how I love his insistence! If Pedro asked me to jump off a skyscraper, I do, because I always have confidence in what on earth he put me on a grid. We had a very difficult shifts, we fell down from exhaustion. But after work he called me to say how happy working with me. It's so touching that my eyes were filled with tears.





- At the premiere of you crying too.
- Yes, I'm very emotional. Especially if something touches me in a positive way. When I'm upset, I, on the contrary, to cry harder. And then I looked into the eyes of Pedro, around all applauded, he was crying, and I couldn't hold back. Like my heroine, sometimes I am a very strong woman, and sometimes succumb to weakness.




- Who, in addition to Almodovar, 'd like to withdraw?


- My favorite Directors Lars von Trier and Wong karwai. The dream of my life to be filmed in one year, three of my idols - Almodovar, von Trier and Karva. What? Can afford to dream!




Hollywood you clearly do not wish to limit myself.


I consider myself European, Spanish, actress, working in four languages in different countries. I always use my accent that distinguishes me from others, and not trying to become one of the Hollywood stars. Of course, I'm working on his English, and he is now much better. But to completely get rid of your accent, you must live in America and I don't want it. As well as filming. What is happening now in Spanish cinema, very interesting, and I want to be a part of. That's going to produce a film based on the bestseller, "the Passion of India" about the poor Spaniard, who married an Indian Prince and became a Princess at the age of 18. I bought the rights to this real story. Incidentally, seven months was achieved! The main role, of course, will play herself. In my opinion, it suits me.




"And the ballet"





- You said that the pictures Almodovar has influenced your life.
- I studied at the ballet school, but under the influence of his films, in particular, "Bind me", started thinking about the movie. I wanted to become a Spanish Anna Pavlova, I realized that I wanted to be an actress! So I started taking acting lessons, go on auditions, and gradually all this crossed my dance classes. And then the role went to...





Parents did not object?
They gave me the freedom to work a lot with youth. I went in the morning and came back at 11pm. Of course, I showed them the script of the picture "Leg and thigh", which decided to withdraw. And when the film was released, it was a shock! However, I was already 17.





Is anyone other than Anna Pavlova, you know from the Russian dancers?
- Anna Pavlova, Maya Plisetskaya - they were my idols more all Actresses! I wanted to be like these women! Baryshnikov and Nureyev are amazing too. And there was one dancer, Nijinsky, he seems, too, was a Russian?





- By itself!
- And why he killed himself?





- Head.
- That's it! "nuella said Penelope. I poured her some tea. She gratefully touch my knee.





- Are you still friends with Zalmay Hayek?
- She's one of my best friends. Once she came to visit me, we both had to work that morning, but we have probatly all night. And I found myself at 7 am leading a lively conversation with his eyes closed. If someone is shot, it would be nice Comedy!




"What's the tattoo "887" on your ankle? - I finish studying Penelopina charms.


It figures, the combination of which was in my life are very important. Eight has always been "my" number, but in the details I'm not going to go.

Waterway


WaterwayGiorgio Armani told about women and countries, which inspired him to create a new fragrance Acqua di Gioia.



In the process of creating a new flavor Acqua di Gioia I could not imagine any particular woman, which he'd intended. The image was collective. Lately, life brought me together with many extraordinary beauties: Megan Fox on the set of an advertising campaign for Emporio Armani Underwear, Lady Gaga while working on outfits for her latest world tour and Grammy award... Also I remembered those beautiful and strong women who surrounded me for many years.



Bow I before one-the only "icon" shop? No. Rather, in my heart there lives a kind of archetype of the woman. And I remain convinced that if she has a wonderful, bright soul, and outwardly, it will be amazingly beautiful! Sophia Loren, Kate Blanchett, Alicia Keys... These women never cease to inspire and amaze me. They are so different, but each has tremendous energy, mystical and captivating. I admire them, their ability to live in harmony with yourself. And they are equally beautiful in evening dress, and jeans.



The energy that I get while travelingkeeps me stop. I am inspired by North Africa, an amazing combination of old and new in Russia and China, energy North America, quirkiness England.



In the Arsenal of every woman should be a lot of scents, and find they need on the same principle as the clothes: for each case fits a certain smell. If you compare the new fragrance with the outfit, then I would say that it is sewn of white silk, which allows the body to breathe and cools the skin. And, of course, to touch him very happy.



The scent of Acqua de Gioia will satisfy those who like the feel of a women strong, free and infinitely feminine.

What is afraid of Julia Roberts?


What is afraid of Julia Roberts? This summer we will see Julia Roberts in a new role - that of a woman who, having gone through a difficult divorce, is sent on a long journey in search of himself. Famous actress told about what is happening in her personal life in reality and not on the screen.


- Julia, in August released a new movie with your participation, based on the book "Eat, pray, love". What is in your life play these three words?


- Huge, perhaps, to any other person. Something very personal, something funny. But the work of this picture was very interesting and taught me a lot. For example, the fact that India is really easy to pick up infection is seriously ill, not only I, but also the Director and several members of the crew! Thank God, nothing happened, but my character I would advise to take a trip somewhere else... Although, seriously, and the book was delivered this picture, and the film itself make readers and viewers to think about many important things.





- Could you, as the main character, to give up the familiar life and go somewhere for the whole year?
"I don't think it would be easy to do, given that I have coming soon new movie, ends up working on the next picture, and about seven projects are in active development... But if I left America, it would go to Europe. There, by the way, I really like from the point of view of the film industry. Age favorite Actresses doesn't matter for European producers and, most importantly, the audience. And it gives the possibility of such amazing women like Helen Mirren, Judi Dench, Sophia Loren, to continue the fruitful activity... I am 42 years old, I feel very comfortable and do not hide their age. But don't blame my colleagues who do not want the public and the producers knew how many they actually. After 45 even known and recognized actress to get in Hollywood role is not so easy.




Journalists have calculated that for the work in the movie "Valentine's Day" you had to pay 500 thousand dollars. per minute of screen time. You are still considered to be the highest paid actress in Hollywood. Why do you think?


- It's very simple - the audience continue to go to the movies with my participation. As for money, I've learned to treat them philosophically as to success in Hollywood.





- Your most successful heroine Vivian from Pretty woman movie you scripted remember in the movie "Valentine's Day". And they have long been revised legendary tape?
- Director of both films was my friend Garry Marshall, and remember "Beauty" was a pleasure for both of us. But the last time I accidentally saw her about 10 years ago on TV. And I thought I never was in a state of rest somewhere running, shouting, waving. In short, jump like a rabbit! (Julie laughs.) But "Beauty" has drawn to my attention, brought the audience love and nominated for "Oscar". I fondly remember about working on this picture.





- You have three children. In our country you would call a large mother. How do you cope? How much time could be given to babies?
Of course, I spend with children all my free time. How do you cope? Try many things to do around the house itself - and to do Laundry, and vacuuming. I believe that family is the most important achievement. My husband Danny is a professional cameraman, he has a lot of work, but this does not prevent him to spend a lot of time with our little daughter hazel and sons Finneus and Henry. By the way, Danny is an excellent cook and can still wash dishes!




"Why do you rarely go out?


Even before birth we are with Danny tried to spend their free time together and at home. They had a romantic dinner, watched TV or listened to good music. We now do this, but with the children. And all these Hollywood parties I quite uninteresting. With rare exception, I only visit the premiere of my film and charity events.




- We know that you will love to spend time in the American province. We have a provincial life is difficult and boring. While in the US? Do you and your children to grow up in the sticks?


- I like to spend time in the province. Like any man, I want a quiet life for themselves and their families. Unfortunately, in Los Angeles too many paparazzi who earn money, rudely intruding into the lives of famous people. The situation should be changed, but, unfortunately, for similar images tabloids are paying thousands of dollars, it is still the same. I hope that California Governor Arnold Schwarzenegger (or his successor in this post) finally accept a law that will curb paparazzi. Or do I really have to raise children in the province...

The secrets of the professionals





The secrets of the professionals
Haircut "Bob"


The father of the founder of the brand John Frieda Isidore, hereditary hair stylist and the owner of a small salon in fleet street in London, wanted his son to become a doctor. And perhaps it would have happened if 16-year-old John fell in love at the first rate and miserably fail the exams. Having failed as a lover, and student career, the young rake with shame returned home and was forced to pick up the scissors.

Q: do You get nervous when dyed your hair famous clients?
A: I was lucky because all of my clients regardless of the degree of celebrity - beautiful, charming people. Each of my clients I call, no matter the star or not. While working I am calm, but I always worry when going on the road - I'm afraid to forget something. When you travel a lot, travel kit is becoming the best friend.




Q: what is the best way to explain my colorist, what you want from him?


A: Before you dye your hair, take your ideas to discuss with your colorist future image. Look through magazines, look at the photos - the more ideas you find out, the better. Your colorist should know what lifestyle you lead - a good colorist, before giving advice, always take into account the lifestyle and income of the client, as well as the type and condition his hair.





Q: How do you respond when a client asks you to repaint badly dyed hair?
A: When I see that the client is poorly or incorrectly colored hair is the first thing that I'm trying to figure out what tools were used and how much time has passed since the staining. Then, depending on the condition of the hair, I can recommend either a haircut or a thorough treatment, or re-staining, provided that the hair is healthy enough. In order to avoid unpleasant consequences never try to repaint the hair at home!
