Javier Bardem on filming "Before Night Falls"

> ON THE REVELATORY FILMING EXPERIENCE: “I can now grasp how a man could look at another man and immediately want to lift his legs to Jesus.”

> ON JOHNNY DEPP AS TRANSVESTITE PRISON GUARD BON BON: “When I first saw Bon Bon on the set, I didn’t realize it was Johnny. I just looked at this girl with the heavy makeup and the big behind and thought, man, I could get into that. I still felt such a way after I realized it was Johnny. He’s such a beautiful guy — who wouldn’t want to make love with him? And I know a lot of real girls who would kill to have Bon Bon’s ass.”

> ON FAKING IT: “I’m not a homosexual, but if I have to kiss a man, I have to feel the desire. Otherwise I will be lying, in a way that is perhaps worse than the lying that gay actors convey when, offscreen, they say they are straight. It’s worse because I am being fake to an audience. I had to find in myself the man who would like to make love with another man.”

Damien, that is exactly what I was thinking. I just didn't want to open up another can of worms.

Hence the brilliance of Bill Condon :D

To be fair to Hudson, Alan Arkin wasn't much better.

But what's an "Arscar"?

He thanked his mother, Pilar Bardem a well known actress in Spain and his grandfathers, all actors, for their talent and inspiration.

That was an awful dress, and she was terribly nervous. Glad Javier won, but this is starting to feel too predictable. I look forward to a surprise in the Supporting Actress category.

Wow. Hudson wasn't even believable as a presenter.
