  • Slumdog is tops at Academy Awards

    The producers of the 81st Academy Awards promised us a different sort of Oscars ceremony this year, and they delivered... sort of. The usually prim-and-proper festivity undid its top button Sunday night, loosening up a tad with some fun but still trotting out the typical here's-your-award-now-make-a-speech formula.

    The light of the Spanish eyes. hide show

    What can I say, in from Spain too, and I think Penelope Cruz is really a talented actress. She´s played a lot of characters and she can plays a lot of them all different. I hope we can see her in the future in some kind of TV-show or as a guest, I don´t know. All I know is that I really like her, and I have to say, that I watch every movies she´s made, and between the movies "Vanilla Sky" and "Abre los ojos" besides she plays the same character, I prefer the second one... You tell me.

    Penelope Cruz is really a talented actress. In every role she really makes you believe that she actually is the character she's portraying. This sense of realism is what makes her really stand out above the masses of the rest of actresses today. My favorite movie of her's is "Vanilla Sky."
