The big-screen adaptation of Gabriel Garcia Marquez's novel Love In The Time Of Cholera brought this year's AFI Film Festival in Hollywood to a close. Shakira, who sings on the film's soundtrack, attracted the most attention, posing for photographers in a tight, leopard-print mini-dress, but fans screamed hysterically for actors Benjamin Bratt and Javier Bardem as they stepped onto the red carpet. Both star in the film, which centres on a 50-year love triangle set in the late 19th and first decades of the 20th century. Bratt told reporters that as soon as he heard about the project he had to be involved. "Look, there was no hesitation whatsoever," he said. "I mean there were just too many reasons to do it, not doing it wasn't even a consideration." Making the movie cemented some special relationships for the actor, who added: "Everyone there, truly from the top down, was just overjoyed to be there and we formed some really good friendships, Javier and myself. "There's a lot of incredible talent that was part of that whole ensemble, hopefully the film shows it." Oscar-nominated actor Bardem said he was also determined to be a part of the film from the outset. "Once I knew that the novel was going to happen I went to talk to (the director) and show myself to say 'well in case you need me I'll be here' - lucky enough he called me back," Bardem said. Romance Blog Comment: A historical romance always has a bigger than life image of it in our minds. May be because modern life has turned so mechanical in its approach that there is no scope left for any romance in life, not even for a romance 'with' life! Our dreams have also gone more materialistic than interactive. But we do miss losing our soft feelings for each other, for one another. That's why old romances make a big buck at the box office.
