In recent days, Spanish actors Antonio Banderas, Penelope Cruz and Argentinean Oscar Martínez have expressed tough judgments against social networks and a resounding reflection on success and what is being exposed to being a public person today.
Banderas, Cruz and Martínez - who are in Madrid on a promotional visit for the premiere of the film “Official Competition”, by Argentine filmmakers Mariano Cohn and Gastón Duprat, which the three star of them - were consulted in an interview in the renowned Spanish cycle El Hormiguero on the disadvantages of fame and always being in the public eye at this time.
“Somewhere you said that you felt freer doing the interviews in the 80s than you do now. Like there is now, how can I say it? , a wave of hatred or susceptibility towards anyone who stands out a little,” presenter Pablo Motos consulted Antonio Banderas.
“Success in this country of ours is very difficult to manage,” said the actor from Malaga. “And unfortunately I haven't noticed that much in other countries. In the United States, for example, someone who succeeds is an imitable person, but here you very quickly become a suspect of something. If I've been successful, it's because I've done something behind that we don't know, that we don't know,” he added, alluding to the fact that, often, the person who succeeds in life is seen as suspicious by others.
“I read almost nothing about myself, neither the good nor the bad,” Penelope Cruz sentenced in turn. The spoiled actress of Pedro Almodóvar assured that it is a practice that she has been carrying out since she began her career, when she was very young, when there was no “danger of social networks”. Motos then consulted him for that rating.
“It's just that I don't see anything good (in the networks),” he insisted. “As the world is using it today, nothing good. That at some point this comes to finding a balance, protecting children, teenagers, the heads of adults, not just theirs,” he added, ironically, “there may be no longer the danger they have now, which is very real.”
In turn, Martínez, who is also known in Spain for films such as “Knock, knock”, agreed with Banderas in his diagnosis of the suspicions generated by success and highlighted the difficulties that this entails, especially in Argentina. “I listened to Antonio and I say 'come to Argentina',” he said, implying that the same thing happens as in Spain. His comment was celebrated with applause from the audience.
“It's exactly the same. Success is synonymous with 'something will have done'. And then I agree on what Pe says, in the sense that there is a very toxic superabundance, of people who think about what they want and who can reproach whoever is sung and say the biggest barbarities and all that is consumed,” he explained.
He added: “For example, I don't have Twitter, nor would I have, it's a particularly aggressive network. But I also thought that your question came from the other hand at the beginning, which is that the public and public statements are also very difficult because of what is politically correct: what can be said and what cannot be said. This is very dangerous.”
“It's a new censorship, isn't it?” , agreed Banderas. “And instead they say horrendous things and nothing happens,” Cruz added.
“Official Competition”, which premiered in February in Spain and on March 17 in Argentina and Latin America, shows the complicated coexistence of two established actors, played by Banderas and Martínez, as they are directed by a most eccentric director, played by Penelope, who decides to take them to the extreme and forces them to the extreme to face a series of tests until the confrontation between the two becomes unbearable. Cohn and Duprat, also directors of films such as “The Man Next Door” or “My Masterpiece”, sought to make a satire of the world of cinema in which they portray the struggle of egos and the difficulties of the industry.
