Di Di Hollywood

Di Di Hollywood is a 2010 Spanish drama film written, directed and produced by Bigas Luna. It stars Elsa Pataky, Peter Coyote, and Paul Sculfor. It was released in Spain on 15 October 2010. It was Luna's final film before his death from leukemia in 2013.

Diana Diaz (Pataky) works at a bar in Madrid; she wants to be famous, and sets off for Miami. When she arrives, she meets Robert (Hacha), and the pair head to Hollywood, willing to do anything to become famous. Once there, she meets agent Michael McLean (Coyote). He changes her name to "Di Di" and gives her false hopes of becoming famous. But she discovers he really just wants to use her as a beard for gay actor Steve Richards (Sculfor).

Filming took place in Madrid, Spain; Valencia, Spain; Elche, Spain; Ciudad de la Luz; and the hospital scene was shot in Benidorm, Spain. Filming was shot from October - November 2009.

Variety reviewed is as "the script proves unable to make Di Di’s journey interesting or credible, while the uncharismatic Pataky is unconvincing as star material."
