Salma Hayek on Antonio Banderas in 'The Skin I Live In'

Posted: Wed., Nov. 23, 2011, 12:00pm PTBy Hayek'The Skin I Live In'"Halfway through seeing the extraordinary Pedro Almodovar film, 'The Skin I Live In,' I had the sudden realization that Antonio Banderas, the man I know so well, had completely vanished from the screen. All I could see was Robert Ledgard, the insane surgeon whom revenge drives into a God-complex love affair with his own creation.After two decades of knowing Antonio, I thought he could no longer surprise me. 'The Skin I live In' proved me wrong. I was completely mesmerized by the variety of emotions that Antonio was able to evoke with such a restrained and elegant performance.Robert Ledgard, icy, magnetic, perverse and seductive at the same time, is the creation of an actor in total command of his abilities, and afraid of nothing. Under the masterful direction of Pedro Almodovar, Antonio has given us, in my opinion, the finest performance yet in his long and extraordinary career."Return to the SAG Preview Contact the Variety newsroom at news@variety.com

Henry Cavill Explains How 'Immortals' Became 'Art-ified' By Tarsem Singh

The comparisons between "Immortals" and "300" are inevitable, but the stars of Tarsem Singh's big budget take on Greek mythology say that the flick is a lot more than "just a guy movie." Sure it's got lots of violence, slo-mo and special effects, but it's also got the impressive visual stamp of Singh which is something that can be appreciated by everyone. "This is Tarsem Singh we're talking about here, it's a visual spectacle, and the 3-D only adds to that," leading man Henry Cavill said. "I will say in the past I've been skeptical of [3-D, but] after seeing this, the technology has come along so far. This is incredible, and all the violence in the movie, if people don't like that, it's actually art-ified. It becomes a 'beautific' ballet of blood if you will." Plus, the ladies will love the film's "incredible love story." "You often think of these Greek epics -- it skirts over all that stuff -- but you've got an incredibly hardened man who's hardened his heart to anything at this stage, and there's a woman who manages to soften him so much so that he starts to think of things which he's never even considered in the past," Cavill added. His costars were similarly enthused about "Immortals." Cavill's onscreen love interest, Frieda Pinto, found the visual effects to be its best selling point. "I think it's a different take on the whole Greek mythology and that's going to be the biggest surprise," she said. "Visually it's not like anything, it's not like any of the big-budget action-packed films that you've seen before." And Luke Evans, who is currently filming "The Hobbit" in New Zealand with Peter Jackson, made the big statement that "Immortals" is "like nothing I've ever seen." "Like Henry said, Tarsem at the helm with his imagination and his enthusiasm and his ideas, it just married so well with what he was doing and the final production," Evans said. "The values of it are just incredible, and we've got this 3-D thing and it just comes alive, it really does." Are you excited about the visual effects in "Immortals"?

How's J. Edgar? Critics, Comedians and Moviegoers Tweet Away Over AFI Fest Opener

comments: 1 || add yours J. Edgar is undoubtedly one of the flashiest Oscar contenders this year. With Clint Eastwood’s direction, Dustin Lance Black’s script, and the well-pancaked melodrama of Leonardo DiCaprio, Judi Dench and Armie Hammer, we’re dealing with a formidable award-attractant group. But was the film’s quality worthy of opening AFI Fest this year? Movieline saw J. Edgar last night — along with a bunch of other critics, bloggers and assorted plebes — and we’re not quite sure. Here are the first 140-character reactions to the movie. (We threw in some comedian takes for the hell of it.) Nightline’s Terry Moran starts us off with good cheer. #embedly_twitter_94795734{background:url(http://a2.twimg.com/profile_background_images/203776846/terry_0209111_d01.jpg) #000000;padding:20px;}#embedly_twitter_94795734 p{background:#fff;padding:10px 12px 0px 12px;margin:0;min-height:48px;color:#000;font-size:18px;line-height:22px;}#embedly_twitter_94795734 .embedly_tweet_content{background:#fff;padding:10px 12px 10px 12px;margin:0;min-height:48px;color:#000;font-size:18px !important;line-height:22px;}#embedly_twitter_94795734 p span.metadata{display:block;width:100%;clear:both;margin-top:0px;height:40px;padding-bottom:12px;}#embedly_twitter_94795734 p span.metadata span.author{line-height:15px;color:#999;font-size:14px;}#embedly_twitter_94795734 p span.metadata span.author a{line-height:15px;font-size:20px;vertical-align:middle;}#embedly_twitter_94795734 p span.metadata span.author img{float:left;margin:0 10px 0 0px;width:48px;height:48px;}#embedly_twitter_94795734 p a {color:#3e7cf7;text-decoration:none;}#embedly_twitter_94795734 p a:hover{text-decoration:underline;}#embedly_twitter_94795734 .embedly_timestamp{font-size:13px;display:inline-block;margin-top:5px;}#embedly_twitter_94795734 .components-above span.embedly_timestamp{font-size:10px;margin-top:1px;line-height:12px;}#embedly_twitter_94795734 a {color:#3e7cf7;text-decoration:none;}#embedly_twitter_94795734 a:hover{text-decoration:underline;}#embedly_twitter_94795734 .tweet-screen-name {font-size:14px;font-weight:bold;}#embedly_twitter_94795734 .tweet-full-name {padding-left:4px;color:#999;font-size:12px;}#embedly_twitter_94795734 .tweet-actions{margin-left:10px;font-size:13px;display:inline-block;width:250px;}#embedly_twitter_94795734 .components-above span.tweet-actions{font-size:10px;}#embedly_twitter_94795734 .controls{line-height:12px!important;}#embedly_twitter_94795734 .tweet-actions a {margin-left:5px;}#embedly_twitter_94795734 .tweet-actions a b{font-weight:normal;}#embedly_twitter_94795734 .components-above span.tweet-actions a b{vertical-align:baseline;line-height:12px;}#embedly_twitter_94795734 .components-above .tweet-text{font-size:13px;vertical-align:baseline;}#embedly_twitter_94795734 .tweet-image {float:left;width:40px;}#embedly_twitter_94795734 .tweet-user-block-image {float:left;width:48px;height:48px;}#embedly_twitter_94795734 .tweet-row {margin-left:40px;margin-top:3px;line-height:17px;}#embedly_twitter_94795734 .tweet-user-block {}#embedly_twitter_94795734 .stream-item {padding-bottom:0px;margin-left:12px;}#embedly_twitter_94795734 .simple-tweet-image img {margin-top:4px;}#embedly_twitter_94795734 .simple-tweet-content {margin:0 0 13px 0px;font-size:14px;min-height:48px;}#embedly_twitter_94795734 .in-reply-to-border {border-color:#EBEBEB;border-style:solid;border-width:1px 0 0;}#embedly_twitter_94795734 .in-reply-to-text {margin-left:4px;padding-left:8px;padding-right:10px;color:#999;font-size:12px;}#embedly_twitter_94795734 .tweet-actions i {background:transparent url(http://a2.twimg.com/a/1306889658/phoenix/img/sprite-icons.png) no-repeat;width:15px;height:15px;margin:0 4px 3px;outline:none;vertical-align:baseline;display:inline-block;}#embedly_twitter_94795734 .tweet-actions a.retweet-action i {background-position:-192px 0;}#embedly_twitter_94795734 .tweet-actions a.reply-action i {background-position:0 0;}#embedly_twitter_94795734 .tweet-actions a.favorite-action i {background-position:-32px 0;}@TerryMoranTerry Moran In L.A. to interview Eastwood and DiCaprio about their new movie, “J.
