Charismatic professor David Kepesh (Ben Kingsley) glories in the pursuit of
adventurous female students but never lets any woman get too close. When
gorgeous Consuela Castillo (Penélope Cruz) enters his classroom,
however, his protective veneer dissolves. Her raven-haired beauty both
captivates and unsettles him.
Even if Kepesh declares her body a perfect work of art, Consuela is more than
an object of desire. She has a strong sense of herself and an emotional intensity
that challenges his preconceptions. Kepesh's need for Consuela becomes an
obsession, but ultimately his jealous fantasies of betrayal drive her away.
Shattered, Kepesh faces up to the ravages of time, immersing himself in work
and confronting the loss of old friends. Then, two years later, Consuela comes
back into his life—with an urgent, desperate request that will change everything.
I love Penelope, she is so hot, great movie...
Its all about .....Forbidden Love: Student-Professor Romances.
The end is only ok,could be a lot better.
Great art acting from Penelope Cruz.
If Penélope Cruz is in it, I won't be going to see it. She is one of the worst actors I have ever seen.
