Charmer, near and humorous. Thus it is To pound Bardem, one lady who enjoys the life the illusion of the first day, and that note and is infected, although she says that “I cannot yet�. And it is that its reivindicadora vein makes be always in first row. Nevertheless, behind that image of woman strong and fighter, Pillar is, besides a wonderful actress, a grandmother of 71 years worried to find the DVD of Bob Esponja for its grandson, loving of the boleros and great fan to the computers, since it discovered that through one webcam could see the hairdo of its son Javier in is not country for old before anybody. Since then, it updates his profile of Facebook on a daily basis and is to the current of everything what it is said of her and of the Bardem in Internet. A question that does not worry to him, as if the fact “to continue seeing my happy children� and the promotion of its new film the life begins today, that abiertamente approaches sex in the third age. A subject still today taboo, but del that “the Bardem� speaks without hairs in the language, as always. Thanks To pound!

What thought when it read the script? What attracted to him of him?
It had it enough to the script in house a long time ago, more than two years, and I liked much because it is an amiable comedy, where she is invited to the life and she stimulates to the people majors to continue being sexually happy. Because the sensuality is not finished with the age. It is sensible while it is lived, perhaps and the caresses you like equal, or more, when you are major that when you are a young person and lozana. In addition, very it was deluded because I want, I admire and joy of the friendship of Laura Manna, the director and scriptwriter of the life begins today.

The film deals with the subject in key comedy. How it is obtained?
In this life any situation always has the two faces, even most dramatic have a humorous side suddenly. The approach of the film is, mainly, rewarding positive and. It is not wanted to give to pain nor pity. By how it advances the society nowadays, the third age already is a youthful absolute age. Soon we will enter the fourth age, luckyly for the people who continue living.

Why it thinks that sex still continues being a subject taboo between the people majors?
In this country we have lived 40 years on dictatorship in which the woman has been relegated to the ostracism, and everything was fault of the woman. Later, when the children married and had children, the stage of the maturity was reduced to exert of kangaroos, when in truth would have consciously to be a total stage of freedom so that the greater person could make her decisions frees and.

Adjusts the image that has the society of the people majors to the reality?
No, absolutely. There is much people who, once passed the age of the retirement, dedicate themselves to make things that have not been able to realize in their youth, like studying, which she is one of the prettiest activities of the world, and not only to being pleasant kangaroos. The grandparents must right to enjoy their grandsons, but also to go away soon with his he binds, to the bed or where he gives the desire them.
In the film it gives life to Juanita, a widow who redescubre sex…

Juanita is rather rare (laughter). She is one lady greater than she is very bitter, since it has not had orgasmo in his life, it does not like no to him to the dead and is obsessed with further on. A thing that Laura has done with much poetry, and is peculiar, is that she, who paints itself solely and she is fixed to go away to sleep because she horrifies to him that they pillage to him bad if dies, thanks to the sex classes decides that is better to paint the noses and the ray of the eye and to put one more a clothes more pleasant to go out, not in search of fianc2e, but to enjoy. It is necessary to allow the fantasies, and to Juanita the autobusero brings to him by the street of the bitterness (laughter).

What has learned during the running?
Of sex nothing, because luckyly I am one lady who has had an absolutely happy and rewarding sex (laughter). What yes I have learned is the lesson that occurs in the sex classes: to animate to other people to that they play, to that they are touched, they are kissed… This is a thing that I even believe that it is being lost, in middle-aged people. The people would have themselves to touch and to embrace more.

Whereupon expensive will leave the cinema people greater than she is going to see the film?
They will leave with a smile and good roll. And if they are married or they matched they will say: “It hears, Pepe, we are going to see if it leaves to us what we did� (laughter).

A DELAYED VOCATION

It belongs to one of the older sagas of comedians of the country. What remembers of those years traveling with their parents in the theater tours?
Much happiness. The parents of my companions seemed to me very rare gentlemen: they were judges, doctors… He did not know why they dedicated themselves to those so rare things, and everybody so serious.

He always wanted to be actress?
No. I made theater in the university and, later, the meritoriaje in the company of Manolo Go'mez Bur, who consisted of working without receiving. But I obtained that she paid to me. From my reivindicadora vein comes here.

Also it made his pinitos like model…
Yes, I was dummy. I always have been what the life has offered me. I went to see a parade of models with my mother, who does not know itself either why my mother went to a parade of models, and to the shout of what high and what thin, the one in charge said to me: “Instead of to see the parade it would matter to you to pass it�. I rationalized the proposal and I thought: “What can happen? That it falls to me�. In the end, I left windy.

Days later, proposed to me to go to Valladolid, where the mili in artillery were my gentleman fianc2e doing, and where my mother, by all means, like was sin, it did not let to me go. Then I saw the open sky and I said, the profession of my life!

Returning to its facet like actress, of all the personages who have done, which has marked more to him?
There is one for me is unforgettable by the things that brought to me, a Goya, and by the consequences that it had, that was the personage of Do6na Julia in Anybody it will speak of us when we have died. Also by the connotations that the personage had, based on the mother of Agustín Diaz Llanes, I toll, the director.

And it dreams about especially interpreting some?
No, I am not sleepy of greatness nor of splendor. I like the personages who have meat, sensations, feelings… Mainly, the surroundings of the film interest much to me, who are the companions, it directs who it… Now that I can choose.

It thinks to continue working?
By all means. He is actor until you die, but is not necessary to die in the tables. Although therefore they have taught to us: an actor never suspends.

He desires to him to share running with some of his children?
With Javier I worked in first short of my nephew Miguel Bardem, the mother, who was one lady of the great one… We go, that could not nor try, because son said to him to such barbarisms who when it finished the test said to him: “That is not truth, that I do not feel that�.
In the personal land, she is a woman very it jeopardize.

It comes with the character. The nuns called “the defender to me of the lost causes�. The great power and the abuse authority have drawn me always much attention. When a nun regañaba to a friend mine because yes, she protested. It was so crossbeam that a year punished the first day of course for all the remaining Sundays, but to the second Sunday they lifted the sentence to me because he was worse (laughter). The nuns could not expel to me from the school, because she removed honor degree in all the subjects. But desire had.

What values have instilled to their children and their grandson?
I have arrived at a pact with my grandson, who is 9 years old, not to speak neither of policy nor of soccer, since he is of Madrid and I am culé sickly. The S-values the basic ones: honesty with one same one; to conjugate the verb to love, but in plural, never to speak of I but of us; and the empathy with the people who suffer or the injustices. I am proud, my children have grown healthy and strong, besides with very good principles.

Which is the secret to stay so active?
I do not know. I have illusion to live, that is most important. to continue seeing my happy children, although already majors are gentlemen very, a thing that astonishes to me. Because when fodder that only I am 71 years old not I find major, but when fodder that my older son, Carlos, has 47, then yes (laughter).

We will soon see it in some other project?
There is a theater project that is possible that it leaves, but I do not know if I will make the decision to do it. I must meditate it. Films I do not create, because it is not easy, unless it now gives them to make films of majors. In my house I have two scripts in which all the personages we have more than 70 years, if they found financing would be wonderful.

Finally, to what it spends the free time that leaves to its work and all commitments him?
I like to read the press, I read three newspapers to the day. I like much the computer and I have profile in Facebook. I like music and, mainly, the boleros. And the cinema, and the theater… But I do not have time!
