Yeah, it’s time for Javier Bardem!  The multi-talented Spanish actor just won Best Supporting Actor Oscar!  Let’s hope this leads to more great projects (esp. here in US).  

This interview shows his way w/ words:

 Though I didn’t see No Country For Old Men, I absolutely LOVED Javier in Before Night Falls, The Dancer Upstairs and The Sea Inside.   It’s AMAZING how he transforms himself from one film to the next, but always keeps his relatable charm and ease.  He is a REAL actor- you can’t “see” the acting b/c he IS the character.  It’s difficult to even speak TWO languages, but great acting is rare.  As an added bonus, Javier Bardem is a v. gorgeous guy w/ that striking profile, big brown eyes, and BEST of all… his megawatt smile!
