The movie became an instant classic.

The gritty film was based on a book.

David McKenna and Nick Cassavetes adapted Bruce Porter’s 1993 book Blow: How a Small Town Boy Made $100 Million with the Medellín Cocaine Cartel and Lost It All.

It is based on the real-life stories of U.S. drug trafficker Jung and his connections including narcotics kings Pablo Escobar and Carlos Lehder Rivas (portrayed in the film as Diego Delgado), and the Medellín Cartel.

Also in the film was Franka Potente as Barbara ‘Barbie’ Buckley.

And a very young Emma Roberts played Kristina Sunshine Jung, the child of Cruz’s and Depp’s characters. Jaime King played the older version of Kristina.

Penelope was seen at the opening ceremony for the festival; her husband Javier Bardem was honored.

Depp was at the festival to promote his movie Modi, Three Days on the Wings of Madness.

Modì – Three Days on the Wing of Madness is a 2024 biographical drama film based on the life of Italian artist Amedeo Modigliani.

It is directed by Depp from a screenplay by Jerzy and Mary Kromolowski, which is based on the play Modigliani by Dennis McIntyre.

In March Cruz said is happier now but still misses the ‘antics’ of her younger days.

The actress admitted she prefers the relationship she has with herself now to decades past.

Pondering how experience gives you ‘peace of mind’, she told Elle Spain: ‘If you ask me what my relationship with myself was like now and the one I had in my 20s or 30s, I honestly prefer the one now.

‘Because of how I feel, and maybe there have been other times where I wouldn’t have said it.’

She added: ‘I take advantage of every decade, every moment, and I never think that “I was better before.”‘

While the Ferrari star is happy with how she has grown and developed, she does miss the ‘kind of unconsciousness’ that came with youth. She said: ‘Sometimes I would like to do more antics and return more to that kind of unconsciousness.’
