ANTONIO BANDERAS

International movie star and Latin heart-throb Antonio Banderas began his career working with Almodóvar in such films as Matador, Law of Desire, Women on the Verge of a Nervous Breakdown and Tie Me Up, Tie Me Down. He gained international fame with his performances in such films as Phillidelphia, The Mask of Zorro and Frida. Antonio has embodied the Latin lover for decades now, and his established career has more recently taken him to work with Woody Allen in his film, You Will Meet a Tall Dark Stranger, and Pedro Almodóvar again, in his latest film, The Skin I Live In, still unreleased.

His selection, Welcome Mr. Marshall, chosen for our audience, was also coincidentally selected by Pedro Almodóvar. The film will be accompanied by a video introduction from Antonio Banderas filmed exclusively for La Mirada Film Festival.
