Heartless Killer Spotted Enjoying Sporting Event

Now there's a sporting son: Javier Bardem takes mom Pilar to a FC Barcelona football game at their home stadium Camp Nou for a game against Atletico Madrid.

At last year's Academy Awards, Bardem took home the Oscar for Best Supporting Actor for his turn as the frightening Anton Chigurh in last year's Best Picture winner "No Country For Old Men." Classically, the Best Supporting Actor presents the next year's Best Supporting Actress trophy, but officially, no one knows if Bardem will show up--because the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences has opted not to release the names of any presenters besides host Hugh Jackman. That may be because last year's campaign to tie America's longest awards with non-nominee presenters like Miley Cyrus resulted in the lowest ratings ever for the Oscar broadcast.

Still, with Bardem garnering a steady stream of praise for his supporting turn in the Woody Allen movie "Vicky Cristina Barcelona," he might even find himself on the nominees list again. Oscar nominations are expected to be announced next week.

Movie Set Travel: Vicky Cristina Barcelona

August 15, 2008 at 9:33 AM | by sedona | 1 Comment

One of our favorite bespectacled directors (Woody Allen) is back to the big screen this week with "Vicky Cristina Barcelona," a sensual romantic comedy about two girls on holiday in Spain for the summer who fall for the same guy (Javier Bardem).

The girls (Rebecca Hall and Scarlett Johansson) also don't realize that their love interest's ex-wife (Penelope Cruz) who, oh yeah, tried to stab him, isn't completely out of the picture yet. She arrives and decides maybe she knows what's best for him after all. And yes, there is one particularly racy scene involving Scarlett, Penelope and Javier, but we hear it's been talked up quite a bit more than it deserves.

"Vicky Cristina Barcelona" was not only shot in, but is a literal tribute to, Barcelona. Keep reading to check out some ideal stops there.
