There are just a few hours left until the Barcelona Forum Auditorium dresses up to host the 40th edition of the Goya Awards. An event that, like every year, will feature the presence of the most recognized film and television stars in our country and around the world.
One of the faces invited to the awards is the international actress Susan Sarandonwhich during the night of this Saturday, February 28, will receive the Goya International. An award that will be awarded to him by the Spanish Academy of Cinematographic Arts and Sciences in recognition of an extensive and successful career that has lasted more than 60 years.
The New York-born actress starred this Friday afternoon in a mass press conference in which he dedicated some nice words to Spain and the president of our country, Pedro Sánchez.
“I think that Spain is doing an incredible job and, in a place where repression and censorship is felt, seeing Spain and seeing the president and what he says and the support you give to Gazaand having actors like Javier Bardem, with such a strong voice, It’s very important to us in the United States.. “When you see on television how strong Spain is and how clear it is morally on these issues, it makes you feel less alone, it makes you feel that there is hope,” said the actress.
Likewise, Susan highlights the importance that the positioning of countries like Spain is having for your country: “The fact that you don’t hear all that on television in the United States, you don’t know it exists, and when a nation rises up, and I would include Ireland in this too, I can’t tell you how important it is to us, how much it means to us“.
To the surprise of many, when asked about Pedro Sanchezthe international actress has not hesitated to use humor to refer to him: “That handsome and tall man… I don’t know much about him, except that whenever I’ve seen him, has positioned itself on the right side of history“.
