HARVEY KEITEL
Harvey Keitel has a degree of his own with a hundred projects under his name over a four-decade career. His illustrious but slow-burning tenure started with supporting roles in Taxi Driver and Alice Doesn’t Live Here Anymore. After failing to find an appropriate role in mainstream cinema, he switched to European films. A supporting role in Bugsy, for which he earned an Academy Award nomination, marked a new start for him on American soil.
He started to gain a cult following his involvement with Quentin Tarantino’s cult classics Reservoir Dogs and Pulp Fiction. Keitel had several hits when he wanted to channel his soft inner side, such as The Piano. Still, he was best known for portraying potentially volatile everymen, gruff police force officers, and G-men in both discrete indies and big-budget stories. At the age of 81, Keitel is determined and adamant about being the best actor and man he can be.
