# bio (long form, separated for readability)
bio: |
  José Antonio Domínguez Bandera started in a small Málaga theater, caught Pedro Almodóvar's eye, and landed his first film role in Labyrinth of Passion in 1982. Over the next decade they made Matador, Law of Desire, Women on the Verge of a Nervous Breakdown, and Tie Me Up! Tie Me Down! — work that made him a fixture of Spain's post-Franco cinema. In 1992 he crossed the Atlantic for The Mambo Kings, then took parts in Philadelphia, Interview with the Vampire, Evita, and franchises that ran from Desperado and The Mask of Zorro to Spy Kids and the Shrek films, where he voiced Puss in Boots. He directed Crazy in Alabama in 1999 and Summer Rain in 2006, played Pancho Villa and Picasso on television, and made his Broadway debut in Nine. In 2019 he reunited with Almodóvar for Pain and Glory, a performance that brought him the Cannes best actor prize, a Goya, and his first Academy Award nomination.
