Bardem shoots down Cannes journalist over sexist joke

Spanish actor Javier Bardem shoots down a journalist's sexist question during the press conference for 'Everybody Knows', in which he acts alongside his wife, Penelope Cruz. The couple have starred in nine films together, including last year's "Loving Pablo".

I mean, if that piercing stare wasn't enough he should have pulled out a coin to really scare that journalist.

Came here from a 6 minute long Facebook video to get to the point.

The journalist just can’t comprehend that a husband can actually love to be with his wife. It’s not sexist, it’s sad…

[Madodanse]

Como hubiera querido ver la cara del periodista. 🤔 Bardem no podia dar mejor respuesta. Bravo!

[Lamartian]

This is perfect. Javier Bardem recognizes it as a joke, gives a little chuckle to express that he knows it's a joke (whether chuckling at the joke or at the hubris of the journalist...that's for you to decide), then makes it clear that he's not going to amplify the joke. Brilliant.

I just came here to find who is “Javier Bardem” bc of a tik tok where the girl says he is her celebrity crush even if he’s older bc he get it. And this was the first video came up. I mean. Now I get it

This is next level hotness! Not because he is very handsome, but because of his attitude and cut to the point answer. And yes, this joke is sexist. Talking about women as if they were burden, even 'as a joke', is such a boomer stuff.

What a freak that guy was for asking that…..

Chileno tenia que ser!! Que vergüenza!! Buena respuesta Javier Bardem

[amandasaunders]

My nieces and their friends were having an argument over who is the more disgusting man on film, Robert Pattison or Javier Bardem.

My fave thing is the cut to Penelope drinking her water and quietly looking in that direction.

SHE CARRIES THE COIN, ya’ll. Tread lightly.

[damianmigginis]

It wasn’t a joke at all! It was a snarky remark, get that shit right

[barrondeville]

Javier Bardem, made a comment to a woman years ago when he was younger who was with several men. He literally had his ass kicked, they beat on his face for 30 minutes.

When someone thinks he can be funny but he is so not..

[JaneESeymour]

Superb response to an inane question. BRAVO!

[LiogCeartas]

Such a sad thing to wonder about. Because what is the implication? Javier did the cool thing and just let it go with a simple critique and didn’t embarrass him too much.
But I would have struggled to resist making the reporter explain his question just to get him to see how silly it is.

He should have used this opportunity to inspire everyone to make the right choice so that more men can work with their wives. But I don't blame him, because true inspiration is the hardest gift to achieve. Sometimes we reach it but most of the time we fail.

[DJPANINO]

Is the journalist still digging to hide since then?
