‘La Bola Negra’ Defied Hollywood’s Expectations—and Made Movie Stars out of Miguel Bernardeau and Guitarricadelafuente

Instead, they cast the actors Guitarricadelafuente and Miguel Bernardeau to bring one of the Spaniard’s final works to a new generation. The stars talk to José Criales-Unzueta about their breakout film.
