"I dont think they're so iconic"
Dude you literally played one of the greatest movie villains ever

[fyessssss]

Love how he gives credit to others whenever he can, very humble man

[zaq]

“We (Woody Harrelson and I) had a blast doing that scene.”
Yes, Woody’s character literally had a blast.

[nickowl]

"He comes, he destroys, and he disappears." Perfect description of the perfect villain. Even the ending shows it. Who knows where hes off next to simply destroy.
The world moves, despite morality.

[Nobodysurvivesevenonebit]

His performance as anton in no country for old men is just terrifying.

[crazyfool]

No country for old men is one of the best movie's ever made.

[antonioduarte]

Javier is an amazing actor, I would like to see him in more movies. Maybe on a Tarantino's

[Tovvvija]

His role of Chigurh is unbeatable. As he said - he actually had to create this character on his own and he did his job 100%.

[elhopper]

Javier Bardem as Silva is part of why Skyfall is still one of the best Bond that’s ever been made. A perfect, menacing weird villian

[BigHush]

Best movie villain I've ever seen. NCFOM made me a lifetime fan of Javier.

[zaynes]

When I saw No Country For Old Men with my dad I didn’t really know what to expect, except for the fact that they had a killer cast in it, and then once we got into it, I realized I had never watched anything with such a dark character. Truly personified that psychopathic individual that feels nothing for others.

[handsomeblackman]

Scariest character ever. No makeup, no CGI, just a man.
What made it so scary is because these people really exist.
How awesome was the acting of the store owner in that scene? No one ever says that.

[preahko]

What a deep thinker, amazing actor, and totally humble human being he is.

[inquiry...]

this man comments on what he believes is his "limited" english, while being one of the most articulate well spoken individuals i have the pleasure of listening to. bravo Javier bravo

[Chatterbox-]

I love actors like Javier who praise and show so much respect for their fellow actors and directors. He is such a kind person.

[dannyh]

Skyfall is arguably one of the best Bond movies ever and Bardem is a big reason why

[snek]

Love this guy, can’t wait to see more of him in Dune’s sequel

[dutzumiho]

His performance in Mar Adentro “The Sea Inside” is one of the most touching performances I have seen.

[schwabit]

A humble genius. He is a magnificent actor.

[abdiver]

The Sea Inside is one of my favorite films of all time. Bardem's performance was pure genius. I also loved Monday's in the Sun which he didn't talk about here.
