A Look At - Keanu Reeves
With The Day The Earth Stood Still now in theaters, there has been a renewed interest in Keanu Reeves. The actor tries to keep a relatively low profile with his life. He doesn’t run around looking for paparazzi. He just lives his life, sometimes seen riding on the back of his motorcycle. He has even admit a lack of interest in technology. He doesn’t own a computer, and instead he uses a typewriter to send out his correspondence. He still believes in and prefers letters over email.
The actor has been in countless movies over the years, but he is probably best known for his role of Neo in The Matrix films. I remember seeing these films and falling in love with his work. I had seen him in movies before. Who hasn’t seen Bill & Ted’s Excellent Adventure? I’d also seen him in Point Break. He has done such a great range of movies over the years. He can play the idiot in one movie and a serial killer in another before he becomes the savior of mankind and then he can play a fallen angel.
I think Reeves has the ability to do whatever he wants. He is a simple man, and he loves what he does. There are so many of his movies I’ve watched over the years, and I’m excited to see this new one once I get a chance. What are your favorite Keanu Reeves films?
He actually uses a typewriter…? Strange, but kinda cool.
I have to admit I’m not a huge fan of his. But I did thoroughly enjoy The Matrix films.
I love the Matrix Trilogy. Another fave is River’s Edge. An oldie but goodie.
