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.
