And some testimonies were collected, including that of her great friend Penélope Cruz, who recounted her first meeting with Salma.
This when I was just looking for an opportunity in the industry in the United States, as “to be with a sister”, Well, despite the fact that it had been there for a very short time, he received it with a good attitude.
“Salma is a great observer and feels everything deeply. She is strong but sensitive, and she can read people very well. That’s what makes her such a great actress, her ability to put herself in someone else’s shoes, from her great performance as Frida Kahlo to her most recent portrayal of her as Maxandra in Magic Mike’s Last Dance.”
