The Best of Banderas
- 18 Aug 2011
Why do middle names sound so much grander in Spanish? Joe Anthony Bands doesn’t sound like a movie star to me, but Jose Antonio Dominguez Banderas? You can see where he gets that Puss in Boots swagger. Born in Malaga just over 51 years ago, Banderas was brought up in a conservative household.

If we had an... Read more

There's something about zombies that has caught moviegoers' imagination in the last years - something to do with the fear of viral epidemics and social breakdown, probably. A zombie's major handicap would traditionally be its speed, or the lack of it. Danny Boyle got around this by giving them a fuel-injection of adrenaline in 28 Days Later, to George Romero's reported disdain. The undead in [Rec] aren't particularly quick on their feet. But it's no longer an issue when everyone is locked into Read more
