  They probably didn’t want to give lip service to a project by Woody Allen, even though it’s one of the most Javier Bardem performances by Javier Bardem. He’s so perfect in it

  It’s my favorite film that he’s in. No surprise it’s not in this video. Javier still openly defends Woody too. He’s always been a real one.

Why did they leave so many “big ones” out of even the timeline? Eat Pray Love, Mother!, Los lunes al sol, Vicky Cristina Barcelona, Pirates of the Caribbean…

I can’t believe the movie you based Fargos atmosphere of, is now now popular than Fargo itself as a movie. Props to The Coen Brothers.

Amazing actor. No Country For Old Men is still one of the greatest films I’ve ever watched.

I’d like to see Javier play Kraven the Hunter in the Marvel Spider-Man movies

Backstage at Zara Larsson’s Viral Lollapalooza Show | Soundcheck | Vogue

LAVISHLY DEMURE

An exclusive behind-the-scenes look at how Zara Larsson prepares for her viral Lollapalooza performance. As the Swedish pop star gets ready for one of her biggest gigs yet, a show-stopping concert at Chicago’s iconic Lollapalooza music festival, she gives us an intimate look at her day. We begin eight hours before showtime in Zara’s hotel room, where she does vocal warm-ups, eats breakfast, and reminisces about the last time she played Lollapalooza, ten years ago. Once she arrives at the festival grounds, Zara gets into glam, drawing inspiration from a colorful, sea-dwelling crawfish. After spending time in hair and makeup, she heads backstage for a few final rehearsals with her dancers before taking the stage.
