NEW YORK, Aug. 10 (UPI) -- Spanish actress Penelope Cruz says she has no "funny answer" to the question of the quality of her on-screen kiss with Hollywood actress Scarlett Johansson.

The New York Post said Sunday that Cruz didn't offer a concrete answer when asked if she preferred kissing the voluptuous actress in the film "Vicky Cristina Barcelona" or actor Ben Kingsley in "Elegy."

"Oh my god, I don't have a funny answer for you," Cruz said of the two intimate two on-screen moments. "And if I answer, it should be funny."

The actress did tell the Post how it was to work with famed director Woody Allen on the set of "Vicky" compared with director Pedro Almodovar, whom Cruz recently worked with for an upcoming film.

"With Pedro, I rehearse for a month, and with Woody it's not even one day," she said. "But you can adapt to both ways. It's a completely different system of work, like day and night. They are both geniuses, and it's great to know that you are in great hands."
