Vicky and Cristina are two young American women who come holiday. Vicky is sensible and holiday. Vicky is sensible and engaged to be married; Cristina is emotionally and sexually adventurous. They meet a flamboyant artist, Juan Antonio, and his beautiful but insane ex-wife, Maria Elena that results in a hilarious and harrowing experience as they all become amorously entangled.
I found the movie attention grabbing because it gave a glimpse of the Spanish culture, particularly picturesque sights of Barcelona and Oviedo. In addition, the characters were fascinating as they interacted in a complex twist of interesting relationships. There were many punch lines or so-called quotable quotes in halting English that struck me. Yes, call me a hopeless romantic.
Only unfulfilled love is romantic. You need to find the missing ingredient to make your love complete. What makes it romantic is that you have something to look forward in the course of finally fulfilling your unfulfilled feelings. Nevertheless, once you have found the missing piece, would emotion still be the same?
Love is complicated. Two people may be meant for each other and may not be meant for each other. Love is a contradiction.
