What type of strange tree is this, I saw them in a movie filmed in Spain?

I was recently watched the 1961 movie El Cid, which was filmed in Spain, and saw the strangest trees I have ever seen. They had tall spindly single trunks and their foillage sat on top like a puffy cotton ball. They were scattered along a road running through a fairly empty rocky valley, They almost looked like they belong in a science fiction movie.

Probably something from the Pinus group possibly a Pinus pinea.


Here is a link to a picture.

Reply:Could be Joshua Trees. They grow in semi-desertic climates like Southern California, the Middle East, and possibly Spain.
Reply:If they were in Spain, they were probably either olive or almond trees
