I started watching the movie in the middle and didn&#8217;t know what the movie was or what his name was (I was watching cable at my sister&#8217;s house and didn&#8217;t know how to get to the guide &#8211; just think I&#8217;ve worked for cable companies) and wouldn&#8217;t know until much later. Since then, I&#8217;ve been hooked. He is a very masculine man but it is his nuanced ability to portray the tenderness and vulnerability of his characters that sends me. Last night&#8217;s acceptance speech provided another opportunity to admire Mr. Bardem &#8211; he attended the awards ceremony with his mother (instead of a &#8220;Hollywood&#8221; date) and he took time during his speech to thank his mother, although I have no idea what he said. From watching his interaction with his mother off-stage, he is definitely affectionate. <\/p>\n<p>Insert {BIG SIGH}<\/p>\n<p> <P align=justify><FONT style=\"FONT-SIZE: 14px\" face=arial><FONT style=\"FONT-SIZE: 85%\"><\/FONT><FONT style=\"FONT-SIZE: 85%\"><\/FONT><FONT style=\"FONT-SIZE: 85%\"><\/FONT>I saw No Country for Old Men solely based on the fact that he was in it (and also because I was curious to know what in the world WAS that thing that he was toting around killing people?).
