About God’s Crooked Lines Movie:
God’s Crooked Lines (Spanish: Los renglones torcidos de Dios) is a Spanish psychological thriller film directed by Oriol Paulo and starring Bárbara Lennie. Written by Oriol Paulo and Guillem Clua with the collaboration of Lara Sendim, the screenplay is an adaptation of the 1979 novel of the same name by Torcuato Luca de Tena.
Newcomer Samuel Soler played the dual roles of Rómulo and Remo, and digital effects were used to make it possible.
The production team watched several old films for inspiration on how a film was shot back then, including Shock Corridor (1963) for the rain scenes.
With a budget of €7 million, the filming lasted for nine weeks, starting in May and ending in August 2021. It was shot in several locations in the provinces of Tarragona and Barcelona, including Terrassa, with Bernat Bosch as the cinematographer.
The old Tabacalera building built in 1923 in Tarragona and a former Mercedes car plant in Barcelona were used to portray the psychiatric hospital.
The film had its world premiere at the 70th San Sebastián International Film Festival on 24 September 2022 ahead of its 6 October 2023 theatrical opening in Spain. It earned six nominations at the 37th Goya Awards, including Best Leading Actress (Lennie) and Adapted Screenplay.
