Woody Allen Directs A Menage-A-Trois of Sexy Comedic Performances, From The Weinstein Company and Genius Products

Film Also Garnered a Threesome of Acting Nominations for Penelope Cruz, Javier Bardem and Rebecca Hall

Oscar-winning writer and director Woody Allen (Match Point) uses the vibrant energy of Barcelona, Spain, as his canvas to paint a sexually-charged but ultimately hilarious portrait of love in Golden Globe Best Picture (Musical or Comedy) winner VICKY CRISTINA BARCELONA, debuting on DVD and Blu-Ray January 27th from Genius Products and The Weinstein Company. With Golden Globe(R)-nominated performances from Oscar(R) winner Javier Bardem (No Country For Old Men), Oscar(R) nominee Penelope Cruz (Volver) and Rebecca Hall (The Prestige), VICKY CRISTINA BARCELONA tells the story of a pair of young American women vacationing together in Spain, where they both meet and fall for the same local bohemian painter. The situation becomes increasingly difficult when his tempestuous ex-wife unexpectedly makes her way back into his life. Co-starring four-time Golden Globe(R) nominee Scarlett Johansson (Lost in Translation) and Oscar(R) nominee Patricia Clarkson (Pieces of April), VICKY CRISTINA BARCELONA is heralded as a "...gorgeous new entry in the annals of great comedy" (Elle) and "...powered by a dream cast, this is Woody Allen's sexiest movie ever!" (Peter Travers, Rolling Stone). VICKY CRISTINA BARCELONA will be available for the suggested retail price of $28.95 on standard DVD and $34.99 on Blu-ray.

Award Season:

In addition to its Golden Globe(R) win and three additional nominations, VICKY CRISTINA BARCELONA has also picked up a Best Supporting Actress (Cruz) award from the National Board of Review, as well as multiple nominations from the Independent Spirit Awards, the Broadcast Film Critics Association and the NY and LA Film Critics Associations.

Synopsis:

Two American women on a carefree Spanish holiday meet a charming local painter and become enamored by him, only to have his intensely passionate ex-wife reenter his life and stir up trouble.
