With that being said, this afternoon, Variety may have had the “exclusive,” but we‘be been saying all along that Pedro Almodovar’s first English-language film would be the Cate Blanchett-starring “A Manual for Cleaning Women.” Almodovar will be writing the screenplay in Spanish before translating it to English. ‘Manual’ is a collection of author Lucia Berlin’s short stories and Almodovar has, supposedly, managed to adapt five of them into one linear narrative. Almodovar created a single character out of the five stories with Cate Blanchett set to play her. Contribute Hire me
