TIFF 2010 Top 10 New Faces: #2. Carolina Bang

Date:

#2. Carolina Bang — A Sad Trumpet Ballad

This crazy Spanish film from Álex de la Iglesia gets more “bang” for the buck with Carolina Bang. Having worked in mostly Spanish television, she’ll next be seen in Jesús Bonilla’s La daga de Rasputín with The Last Circus a.k.a A Sad Trumpet Ballad, she plays a character that is a highly symbolic one – one could read her as representing the actual country of Spain with the two mad clowns fighting over its political possession of it. Love how here cleavage, disintegrated mascara and looks of genuine fear.
