Saturday, September 13, 2003  

From a CNN review of the film 'Once Upon a Time in Mexico' (one movie I will not see):

Banderas gets top billing in a cast that has to be one of the most gorgeous ever assembled: Johnny Depp, Salma Hayek, Eva Mendes and Enrique Iglesias co-star. He brings a quiet strength and a spirituality to the film, but it's Depp who steals every scene he's in as Sands, a sleazy CIA agent. .

I can hardly imagine a less gorgeous cast. Johnny Depp does nothing for me. Salma Hayek is microcephalic, not a particularly attractive feature to me. Eva Mendes I had to look up - your garden variety no-personality babe. Enrique Iglesias is sexy enough for a video clip but a whole movie of droopy eyelids?

As for Banderas, you have to be on something pretty potent to see anything barely reminiscent of strenght or spirituality in him. He looks like a rapidly ageing little boy with that silly pouty mouth of his and he has the expression range of a knee. I'll never get all the hoopla surrounding him.

Clearly CNN's critic has a latino fetishism.

Time to go for a run. I need to be back before noon to make my round of Saturday's calls.
