Generally speaking, I'm willing to buy any two actors playing lovers in a movie. But with 
Twice Born, I found it nearly impossible to accept the characters portrayed by Penelope Cruz and Emile Hirsch as a couple. It's not that Cruz is too beautiful for Hirsch. It's just that they somehow feel 
wrong for one another. That isn't 
Twice Born's only problem, though, which I explain in my 
Screen International review.
