My Take
Nahuel Pérez Biscayart fascinates me precisely because he is a polyglot who refuses to stay inside his native Spanish. Winning both a César and a Lumière for a French film, BPM (Beats per Minute), is no small feat for an Argentine actor working in a borrowed tongue. To move audiences in a language not your own demands a rare emotional courage, and that is exactly the quality I prize in a performer. He treats borders, linguistic or otherwise, as mere suggestions. I find myself eager to see which country and which language he will conquer next.
