Did You Know?
Personal Quote:
You must ask yourself if you're standing up for what you know is right, if you're spending time with people close to you, if you're treating others with kindness and compassion. These question are your moral compass, they're your north star... There will always be forces-things like jealousy, greed, and anger-trying to push you away from the ideas you believe in and the causes you care most about... See more »Trivia:
He tried to be as bulky as possible to play Big Harold in Platoon (1986), but the vigorous boot-camping training, bad food and rough shoot caused him to lose a lot of weight. When he noticed Whitaker was getting thinner, Oliver Stone said to him, "What are you doing? You're supposed to be 'Big' Harold". See more »Trademark:
