I once dreamt Christopher Walken and I were walking along a
path and talking. I don’t recall what we were talking about but walking with
him was what I remember most. We were strolling through an empty park that
turned to endless hallway and then light. I remember waking up and actually
thinking in my half-awake state Christopher Walken is God.
Christopher Walken is one of my favorite actors, and since
today is his birthday, I wanted to share what I have learned about his impressive
acting career.
Christopher Walken was born on March 31, 1943 in Astoria,
Queens, New York City. Before taking on dramatic roles, Walken was trained as a
dancer in music theater.
His first feature film debut was in The Anderson Tapes (1971), and his first starring role was in The Happiness Cage (1972). In 1977, he
played Annie Hall’s homicidal brother in Woody Allen’s Annie Hall.
His performance in the 1978 film The Deer Hunter, won Walken an Academy Award for Best Supporting
Actor.
In the 80s, he starred in iconic films such as The Dogs of War (1981), The
Dead Zone (1983), A View to a
Kill (1985), and Biloxi Blues
(1988).
Some other films he starred in include: True Romance (1993); Pulp
Fiction (1994); The
Prophecy (1995); Suicide Kings
(1997); Catch Me if You Can (2002); The Wedding Crashers (2005); Man of the Year (2006); The Maiden Heist (2009); and Stand Up Guys (2012).
He has appeared in several theatrical plays and musicals such
as Kid Champion (1975); The Seagull (1981); James Joyce’s The Dead (2000); and A Behanding in Spokane (2010).
He’s noted for hosting Saturday Night Live seven times, and
is recognized for the spoof of Blue Öyster Cult's “(Don’t Fear) the Reaper” recording session where the producer,
played by Walken, asks for “more cowbell.” And in 2001, Walken helped
choreograph and danced in Fatboy Slim’s “Weapon of Choice.” The music video,
directed by Spike Jonze, features Walken dancing around the Marriott Hotel in
Los Angeles.
Released on March 30, 1990, the live action film Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles, introduced four mutated vigilante turtles--Leonardo, Michelangelo, Donatello, and Raphael--and Master Splinter, an over-sized rat.
The live action film, which was directed by Steven Barron, is based on the comic book characters created by Kevin Eastman and Peter Laird. It also starred Judith Hoag, Elias Koteas, and Corey Feldman as the voice for Donatello.
Edward Weston is considered as "one of the most innovative and influential American photographer" on the 20th century. His landscapes, still lifes, nudes and portraits have captivated many and have received numerous recognition.
Born in Highland Park, Illinois on March 24, 1886, Weston began taking pictures with a Kodak Bull's-Eye #2, a simple box camera, which his father gave him on his 16th birthday. He then purchased a 5x7 inch view camera and began taking pictures of Chicago parks.
At age 20, his photograph was first published in Camera and Darkroom magazine. A few years later, he opened his own business called "The Little Studio" in Tropico, California.
In 1937, Weston was the first photographer to receive a Guggenheim Fellowship, a grant that is awarded to those "who have demonstrated exceptional capacity for productive scholarship or exceptional creative ability in the arts."
He was diagnosed with Parkinson's disease in 1947 and passed away January 1, 1958.
