Penélope Cruz
Penélope Cruz was born in Madrid on 28th April 1974. At seven, she started to take ballet lessons. Acting was her next stept, and she made her debut at 17 in the film "The Greek Labyrinth" This was followed by twenty more movies, mainly in Spain: among them "Belle Epoque" and "All About My Mother" both oscar winners. International attention was not long in coming. Cruz was taken to Hollywood by Stephen Frears, who gave her a part in his last film and her performance was a real success.
A restless traveller and, as she likes to call herself, a citizen of the world, this Spanish actress has changed her nationality and accent at will and with ease in her films: from Brazilian to Mexican, Colombian and even Greek, so preventing herself from becoming stereotyped. Nevertheless she is always willing to support her language and her culture, and so at last is to appear as a woman from Madrid in her latest film, "Vanilla Sky"
But the hardest thing to bear is being separated from her family."There are times when you miss them and you feel lonely, even though you are always surrounded by people", she said.
