Shooting in Spain: NICK NOLTE

Nick Nolte (Cape Fear, 48 Hours) is visiting the European film industry by shooting at least two movies in Spain.

This summer the veteran actor completed in Seville the shooting of  "A Puerta Fría" by the young Spanish writer and cinematographer Xavi Puebla and together with actors such as Antonio Dechent, José Luis García Pérez or María Valverde.

Nolte plays in this movie the role of a rich American business man running a multinational company who comes on a business trip to Spain. An unemployed Spanish itinerant seller played by Antonio Dechent tries to get in contact with him in order to get a job, but none of the two men speaks the language of the other.

In the press conference of the film produced by the Spanish production company Maestranza Films Nolte expressed his will to work in Spain: "It's a real pleasure to work in an independent movie in Spain". He says he found the script great, the kind of a European indie film everybody would like to work in. The budget of "A Puerta Fría" is one million euros.

 The other project Nick Nolte has in Spain will be shot during 2011 in the Spanish capital of Madrid. The project supported by the Madrid Film Commission is called "At 2:15" and will be directed by María de Kannon Clè. According to Screendaily.com alongside Nick Nolte will be starring Melanie Griffith, Ángela Molina and Fernando Guillén Cuervo in a film that tells the story of a number of people who's paths cross in the city of Madrid. The project is produced by Clo D'Art Productions, Accamedia, Filmblips UK ans the Hungarian Forma Films.
