I was watching this Spanish movie The Sea Inside last night, and it moved me to tears. The story was very touching, which was about the life of Spaniard quadriplegic Ramón Sampedro and his 30-year campaign for euthanasia. The film, directed by Alejandro Amenábar (The Others) was very thought provoking for me. Is the right to live the same with the right to die? But for me, what made this movie a very good one is the wonderful performance of Spanish actor Javier Bardem. He reminds so much of
Al Pacino's acting.
Bardem caught the world's attention in 2000 after getting an Oscar Best Actor nomination for Before Night Falls. He gave justice to Cuban poet and novelist Reinaldo Arenas' battle with censorship, imprisonment, and homosexuality. Bardem was the very first Spanish actor ever to be nominated for an Academy Award. In that movie, I can compare his acting to that of Tom Hanks in Philadelphia. If you don't know
Javier Bardem, check out his two great movies. But if you are not in the mood for some heavy drama and your eyes are too weary to read subtitles, you can see Collateral starring Tom Cruise. He was the drug lord that Jamie Foxx rendezvous in a club.
Whenever I'm at work, I usually drink coffee and put on my Creative Zen Vision player. This is the latest innovation that Creative has produced. I like this player because it has everything I need in a player. Anywhere I go I can carry this light compact
