"We are now integrated into American society and
I don't like the word fashionable, because fashionable means
that it's going to pass. It's not like that anymore." - Antonio
Banderas
"To be married in our profession is not an easy thing. There's
too many beautiful people around, very interesting people. It's
just a matter of really having-being patient and probably having
the capacity and the faith of falling in love with your own wife
again. That happens to me." - Antonio Banderas
"There are some movies that I would like to forget, for the rest
of my life. But even those movies teach me things." - Antonio
Banderas
"Swordfighting is about self-control. Eventually, I got some,
but I still got nicks on my hands during filming." - Antonio
Banderas
"My Spanish is getting a little bit loose. Sometimes I go to
Spain and after I've been talking with my folks for a while...
you start changing the verb for the adjective, for example,
which is a common thing between Spanish and English. I change
that sometimes but after a couple days there, boom, I'm back." -
Antonio Banderas
"Melanie's Spanish is very good actually, but it was very good
by the time we did Crazy in Alabama for example. At that time,
she went to Spain and she did the press conferences in Spanish.
She received quite good ovations from the journalists there
because she did a great job." - Antonio Banderas
"Melanie is more of a disciplinarian with the little girl than
me, probably because it's my first baby. She gets everything
easy from Papa. I am more weak. She takes advantage of me." -
Antonio Banderas
"It's not the same to read Gabrielle Garcia Marquez in Spanish
than to read it in English in a translation. You lose a
tremendous amount of subtleness." - Antonio Banderas
"It's lovely to go out with your kids to watch a movie you're a
part of and see them enjoy it. I suppose Stella, who is 7 1/2
now, will remember in 20 years time that she went to the opening
of Shrek 2 in Los Angeles with her pappy." - Antonio Banderas
"If you call a cat, he may not come. Which doesn't happen with
dogs. They're different types of animals. Cats are very sexy I
think too in the way they move." - Antonio Banderas
"I've never worried about what audiences would accept or had a
game plan regarding the career. I never had an idea of how I
should look to my fans or anybody else." - Antonio Banderas
"I was playing with a soccer team in Spain until I broke my
foot-badly. That's when I started seriously getting into
acting." - Antonio Banderas
"I'm now projecting my career in a totally different direction.
I am going to work less-way less. And I want to work better. I
want to direct again, I want to do more theatre, and I want to
do exactly those movies that I want to do." - Antonio Banderas
"I think Shrek makes an effect in older people. And there are
many things in the movie that you saw that are not for kids.
Kids would not understand certain things." - Antonio Banderas
"I mean, the Constitution of this country was written 200 years
ago. The house I was living in in Madrid is 350 years old!
America is still a project, and you guys are working on it and
bringing new things to it every day. That is beautiful to
watch." - Antonio Banderas
"I like going everywhere. And I love starting new things." -
Antonio Banderas
"I love the diversity of America. I love the plain, normal sense
of humor Americans have. It is not wicked, like in some
countries. And I also love how new America is." - Antonio
Banderas
"I admired Melanie before I loved her." - Antonio Banderas
"For me it is beautiful that because there is a character in the
film that speaks with a Spanish accent, the Spanish-speakers
answer to that. The studios know that there is an audience there
that shouldn't be misused. They are part of the American melting
pot." - Antonio Banderas |
