She ws in a pretty good flick called The Good Night. It's about lucid dreaming. She looked hot and didn't blow her limited lines. She was half naked at times. The movie was good though. I'd recommend it.

Since when is Cruz going topless in a film news? This is like announcing Bruce Willis will shave his head for an upcoming movie part. Has anybody here actually SEEN any Spanish films?

Of course not. That would require people to be non-xenophobic on culture and language.

She's adorable in practically any movie/film she is in.
