Experience

Javier Bardem

Energy

Javier Bardem
"My truth - what I believe - is that there are no answers here and, if you are looking for answers, you'd better choose the question carefully."

Truth

Quote_1.png
Javier Bardem
"We actors always say how difficult and physically demanding a role was. But give me a break, it's only a movie."
