What's better than Penelope Cruz and Javier Bardem in a sex movie together? How about super young Penelope Cruz and Javier Bardem in a sex movie together? Sold? I was!Let's travel to 1992 Spain for JAMON JAMON, which seems kinda like a Pedro Almodovar flick but instead it's a Bigas Luna flick. That is supposed to be a compliment because Almodovar is the best.
Penelope Cruz stars as the omelette-making daughter of a small town madame who is in love with the son (Jordi Molla) of the local underwear factory mogul (Stefanie Sandrelli). Mom doesn't want son to marry Cruz, so she hires well endowed ham factory worker Javier Bardem to show Cruz why maybe she shouldn't get married so young.
Passions run high and everyone ends up sleeping with people they're not supposed to and then some people end up dead and you're like, "Wait I think I missed something in translation but whatever it is doesn't matter because this was good anyway!"
At least that's what I thought.
JAMON JAMON is a crazy movie. Like, really crazy. Like, naked bullfight crazy. So of course it was good.
