    A bizarre, unwholesome, sexually explicit melodrama whose depiction of rape would now be considered problematic, to say the least. Penélope Cruzis made up to look authentic and unglamorous as Italia, a vulnerable working-class woman assaulted by a prominent surgeon (played by the film’s director, Sergio Castellitto) who then conceives an obsession ...

    The role of the comely Greek woman Pelagia in this syrupy wartime romance is the kind of Euro love interest role that Hollywood would offer Cruz without thinking about it. Here she is torn between her hunky fisherman boyfriend, played by Christian Bale, and of course, the outrageously accented Italian officer Captain Corelli, played by Nicolas Cage...

    Cruz had worked with director Rob Marshall on the toe-curling musical Nine, but this was something more palatable: a rare chance for her to play mainstream Hollywood comedy. She did it well, striking some meet-cute sparks with one of the biggest franchise stars of the era. Johnny Depp returned as the roguish pirate Jack Sparrow and Cruz enjoyably p...

    This is a 45-minute documentary directed by and starring Cruz, about the work of the Uno Entre Cien Milfoundation, a Spanish NGO that raises money to fund research projects into childhood leukemia. Cruz presents the film and interviews physicians, careworkers, parents and of course the children themselves – which she does with heartfelt sincerity a...

    The Spanish director Fernando Trueba won the best foreign language Oscar for this movie, a variation on Don Siegel’s US civil war drama The Beguiled, giving Cruz an important early role. This takes place just before the Spanish civil war: an army deserter fetches up at a villa owned by an unrepentant old anarchist who is only too happy to offer hos...

    Cruz’s screen career will always be shaped by her magnificent work with the great master Pedro Almodóvarand their first joint appearance on this list is Almodóvar’s modestly intended comic romp set aboard a plane, in which his longtime leading lady contributes a high-spirited cameo at the start. She is, of all things, a baggage-handler driving one ...

    Cruz co-starring with Tom Cruise should theoretically have been a conflation of pure physical gorgeousness to blow the roof off any cinema in the world. And in fact, after filming Vanilla Sky, the couple (Penélocruise? Tomcruz?) had a three-year relationship that reportedly foundered on Cruz’s inability to accept Cruise’s Scientological strictures....

    It has become a cliche to compare Cruz to Sophia Loren, but it’s unavoidable in this enjoyable, silly meta-movie comedyfrom Trueba. Cruz is on regal form as Macarena, a gorgeous film diva from the 50s who is returning to her Spanish homeland after a triumphant Hollywood career to play Queen Isabella of Castille in a preposterous US-Spanish co-produ...

    Another short appearance from Cruz in this early movie of delicious brashness from Almodóvar, loosely adapted from the novel by Ruth Rendell. Her sensational charisma and screen presence, as a sex worker who gives birth to the movie’s hero in the opening sequence, provide the motivating power for the drama. It is also probably the case that, as the...

    Cruz’s fiercely composed performance in this film from Isabel Coixet reclaims her character from the somewhat vapid desire-object that Philip Roth seems to have had in mind in his original novel, The Dying Animal. She plays Consuela, the literature student in a class taught by the goatish sensualist and Roth alter ego David Kepesh, played with bead...
