Bardem
[picture to come - no matter how good someone looks on screen, you still have to find the right image!]
This was a thought that surfaced after watching a few clips of Javier Bardem on youtube - it's quick, unedited, just something to feed my hunger for writing and analysis (however trifling). ^^
There is an air of generosity and nobility around him, a humanity that seems at odds with the glamour of Hollywood. His accent - sexy beyond doubt, sweetening and deepening the mellow tones of his voice until it feels as if you're sinking into a pool of lush velvet - is genuine, his language that of a man of intelligence and sincerity. The honesty that marks the work of the great actors has always been known to come from their personal character, and the power of their performance seems to be in direct proportion to the intensity of their self-reflection. I think of method acting as a way of making your character alive through your personality, your body, your spirit. It is a changing of yourself to embrace an altered perception, but one that must be accepted wholely, without reservations. The courage of this act is what gives acting, and actors, the aura of magic for me.
