Huesca, España- The Mexican actor Kuno Becker has a lot of possibilities of succeding in Hollywood and world wide cinema, because of his great talent and his capacity to intervine in the set, said the spanish actress Ana Gracia, who filmed along side Becker, Antonio Banderas and Emma Thompson in the film Imagining Argentina, under the direction of Christopher Hampton.
Although she only filmed one scene with the mexican actor in Spain, Gracia said she remembered him very well because of his enthusiasim and great desposition for work.
"I worked with Kuno one day, he is charming, very funny, he immediately introduced himself and we managed to make a good relation, he's a very talented actor and from what I saw he has a lot of possibilites to make it big in Hollywood." said the actress from various spanish films like "The Red Squirrel" and "A city of Another World."
It was the 27th of August 2002 when Becker, became part of the film in Madrid, although the filming had already begun in Argentina. Gracia, winner of the Award for Best Actress in Spain for the film "One more, One less", commented that the day she filmed with Becker, they also shared the set with Ruben Blades and with Banderas himself.
Imagining Argentina tells the story of an argentine theater director, named Carlos (Antonio Banderas) whose wife, a progressive journalist named Cecilia (Emma Thompson) is kidnapped by the army of the Military junta of Videla.
In the film, Gracia potrays a woman who has also been affected by the disappearances in Argentina.
"It was an incredible experience for me, it was the first time I had filmed in English, with a professional team who are Oscar winners, and because I had made an audition [casting] and because I really admire Hampton as a dramatist."
She also said that she almost participated in Fidel, alongside Gael Garcia, but that at the last moment the producer preferred to save money and gave the role to a local actress.
However, she said that in some occasion she ran into Gael Garica and Diego Luna in Spain and had the opportunity to greet them and congratulate them for their acting in "Y Tu Mama Tambien".
"I've loved what Mexico's been doing lately, that Gonzalez Iñárritu was great with his film "Amores Perros" and the actors are great. I hope I can film with them someday, it would be very rich." She expressed.
Gracia has participated as a judge of the Latin American section of the Festival of Cinema of Huesca.
