I'm getting so old - it's more uncomfortable to do those scenes now than when I was 20. I mean, I don't have a big problem with nudity on screen. But usually the days when you do those naked love scenes are the weirdest ones on set. Everyone is uncomfortable. You're like, 'Hi. How are you?' Then the next minute you're with an actress who you don't know and you're pretending to make love to her in front of all the crew. The acting challenge is pretending things are OK.
Javier BardemI don't know how to drive a car. The only thing I can do is act, but it's not something I even feel comfortable doing.
Javier BardemAge has no reality except in the physical world. The essence of a human being is resistant to the passage of time.
Javier BardemI'm a huge fan of the director, Alejandro Gonzรกlez Iรฑรกrritu, and his work, and I knew he was going to be an amazing actor's director, based on the performances that I saw in his movies.
Javier BardemWhen I see myself at 14 years old I can put my hands on my head and think: 'How could I have done that?' but at that time it had sense for me. You do the same when you're 20. And now, when you look at people who are 20 years old you ask yourself: 'Was I like that? Was I really like that?'
