How time flies! It seems like only yesterday that I agreed to take over the site from Riikka - when in fact it was actually back in May. I was then busy catching up on everything Catalina Sandino Moreno and re-launched the site with a new layout and up to date information. Unfortunately, I’ve then somewhat lost motivation to keep running the site - mainly because I do maintain other sites as well. As said earlier this month I am determined to look after this site better in 2008. I’d like to thank all of you visitors for sticking around and baring with me. I hope you will continue to step by Introducing Catalina Sandino Moreno and remember, feedback & comments are always very much appreciated!

Catalina Sandino Moreno: Best of 2007 (Read full story to see full list)

Compiled by myself. Feel free to post your own choices in the comments section Idea inspired by my friends Riikka and Mycah.

Best news:
Catalina being cast as Aleida, Che’s wife, in Steven Soderbergh’s two-film-project. She will be in both “The Argentine” and “Guerrilla” and I hope her part is large! (update)

Worst news:
This is actually something I forgot to update on. A New York Daily interview mentioned that Catalina was going to star on stage in Kenneth Lonergan’s new play, “The Messenger Star”. I suppose, they were referring to The Starry Messenger. It was due to play off-Broadway at the Manhattan Theatre Club this winter. Unfortunately, it was cancelled (read article).

Favourite magazine picture:

There weren’t too many magazine pictures - there were a few more than there are right now in the gallery, scans are coming soon - but I really loved this one.

Favourite photo shoot:

This is my new favourite Catalina photo shoot session ever!

Favourite event look:

Catalina always looks classy at events - but I decided my favourite look is this one. A happy & smiling Catalina wearing blue in Madrid at the premiere of The Heart of the Earth.

Favourite 2007 project:
Definitely The Heart of the Earth. (I haven’t seen Love in the Time of Cholera yet) I like the film’s story, Catalina looks fantastic in period costumes and it is another strong role for her.

Favourite still from a 2007 project:

I can’t wait to see Catalina in Love in the Time of Cholera even if she’s ‘only’ got a supporting role - she looks really beautiful in this.

Favourite quote
It’s a tie between:

It’s funny. I came back from Colombia a few months ago, and I kind of freaked out. I was, like, “Oh my God, I don’t have a job!” but then I remembered that I can wait. I know how to wait now. I know how to be patient. So I’ll be here, circling, waiting. I’m like a shark. I won’t go away.

and

Just because I do all these serious movies doesn’t mean you can’t have a damn laugh!

Most anticipated Catalina release for 2008:
There’s only one we know about, so, the ‘Che’ projects The Argentine & Guerilla.
