Five Extraordinary Actors (Advocate Of Change Series)
Synopsis
Marlon Brando: Known for his slurred, mumbling speech and tough guy bravado but also for a technique that emphasized emotional truth. Paul Newman: One of the first to use his celebrity to help others less fortunate. Health Ledger: Before his death, Ledger had built a body of work most actors would be proud of and he was famous for throwing himself into a role to the point where the character messed with his head, even when the cameras weren't rolling! Clint Eastwood: Spaghetti Westerns may have made Clint Eastwood a star in the early days but in recent years it's his writing, producing and directing credits that have established him as a Hollywood heavyweight. Johnny Depp: He first found fame in 21 Jump Street, and the show made him into one of the hottest heart-throbs of the ?80?s. But it was his portrayal of the bizarre title character in Tim Burton's Edward Scissorhands in 1990 that would spark a career playing both dark and funny offbeat characters in films.
