Spanish actor Javier Bardem left his prints outside the historic TCL Chinese Theatre in Hollywood during an emotion‑filled ceremony in which he championed his family’s artistic legacy and paid tribute to his mother, the late Pilar Bardem.
“It moves me because of the Bardem name, a name that has been in this profession for a very long time. I am nothing more than a representative of that name,” he told local media after pressing his hands, feet, signature and even his nose into the cement.
