MADRID -- Spain's film academy, the Academia de Cine, whose annual awards are the country's equivalent of the Oscar, has awarded Spanish international star Antonio Banderas a Goya of Honour -- something like a lifetime achievement prize. The academy's Board was unanimous in its acclamation of Banderas's "brilliant career on both sides of the Atlantic" where over the years he has developed not only as a versatile actior, but also as a director and producer. He has been nominated for a Goya award on four occasions, has worked on over 90 films and has appeared on Broadway (Nine). He worked with Spain's best-known director Pedro Almodóvar on five movies and on such box-office hits as Philadelphia, Shrek, Evita and Zorro, among others.
