Five Favourite Films with Gael Garcia Bernal
Summary
Gael Garcia Bernal may be Mexico's best known acting export of recent years, having made a powerful debut in Alejandro Gonzalez Inarritu's Amores perros in 2000. A year later he co-starred with Diego Luna in Alfonso Cuaron's Y tu mama tambien. After a busy career which has seen him work with the likes of Pedro Almodovar, Michel Gondry and Fernando Meirelles, he reteams with Luna, and a different Cuaron -- Carlos -- for Rudo and Cursi. Of his five favourite films, Bernal had an easier time picking them than his co-star -- and curiously they've both chosen a Disney classic as their first choice. Back to Article

on Jun 28 2009 11:14 AM Honestly, I haven't heard of most these. But it's about time someone put an animated film in their top 5! (Reply to this) |
on Jun 28 2009 11:24 AM Wow! That's a pretty great slate of celebrated classics. You expect a guy like Bernal to have taste like this. Especially Rocco..., that is completely up his alley. If a remake is made, Bernal would be absolutely perfect for it, he has infact played similar roles elsewhere. (Reply to this) |

on Jun 29 2009 04:56 PM In reply to this comment (#2518640) Amen, no more heartrending scene in all of cinema than when Dumbo is separated from his Mama. Worse even than Bambi. (Reply to this) |
on Jul 13 2009 05:04 PM Interesting choices. I enjoyed Paris, Texas as well, one of my favorites. Damn, how gorgeous is GGB? (Reply to this) |
on Aug 18 2009 07:29 PM Oh how I love you, you tiny beautiful man. A really great list. I haven't seen Memories of Underdevelopment, but I'll be sure to give it a look. (Reply to this) |
