Rumor has it that Spanish film genius Pedro Almodovar(we heart him here at VL) is thinking about making a film in English with English actress Kate Winslet no less. The source of the chisme? A quote by Almodovar himself from a UK newspaper interview. He reportedly said:

What I’d really like to do is make Ian McEwan’s latest book into a film. And there is no shortage of British actresses to cast in it; I would definitely like to work with Kate Winslet who is a good friend of mine.

McEwan’s latest book is On Chesil Beach. I haven’t read it but I have to wonder: Almodovar’s gift has been his portrayals of pedacitos of Spanish life and culture andhe obviously has a deep well to draw from. Would such an adaptation of a foreign culture mas encima work?
