Star Trek (1966) has given me a considerable amount of satisfaction and a certain amount of respect in the industry community and among people who watch television and movies. I enjoy that. I enjoy feeling good about myself. God knows it’s easy enough for me to feel bad about myself — I need all the support I can get. Star Trek deserves the respect it has received. If I’m going to be aligned with something, it might as well be something that makes a worthwhile statement most of the time. No, I don’t have any regrets about my involvement with Star Trek.

After being asked to participate in the documentary “Give Me Shelter” which was written by her friend Katie Cleary, these two animal advocates began “World Animal News”, which airs weekly on TRadioV, and discusses a variety of animal issues and causes. With powerful weekly in-studio guests, and very strong opinions, “World Animal News” has become wildly popular in the animal rescue and advocacy community.

[Excerpt from her 2011 Academy Award acceptance speech] When I watched Kate Winslet two years ago, it looked so fucking easy – Oops!
[on interpreting the title role in Francine (2012)] To play someone when the character masks their own emotions, doesn’t understand their own emotions, has no release for their own emotions, and yet is full of emotion – that is a much harder character to play than someone who has somewhere to put it.

[on Spike Lee’s criticism of him] I’m so sick of hearing about damn Spike Lee. Spike can go straight to hell! You can print that. I am sick of him talking about me, I am sick of him saying, ‘this is a coon, this is a buffoon.’ I am sick of him talking about black people going to see movies. This is what he said: ‘you vote by what you see,’ as if black people don’t know what they want to see.

(2012, on My Brilliant Career) A most important role for me, I must say, because that’s the film that took me out of New Zealand, the film that allowed me to live and work in Australia, which I love. Yeah, that was probably more transformative than anything else I’ve done, in a way. Without that film, I never would’ve-prior to that, I’d done Sleeping Dogs, and I thought, “That was a one-off, I’ll never do another film.” And if you look at Sleeping Dogs, you think, “Well, I wouldn’t use that bugger again.” But I did get cast in Brilliant Career, I kind of understood a little bit more about what was necessary, and it was a great opportunity for me. That film changed me into an actor rather than just a part-time thespian.

Michael Bollner
Born: September 14, 1958 in Munich, Germany
While filming Willy Wonka & the Chocolate Factory (1971), he didn’t have a dressing room at the studio. Instead he would change at his house, which was conveniently nearby, and walk to the studio for filming.
During the filming of Willy Wonka & the Chocolate Factory (1971) he didn’t speak English very well, as German was his native and only language. Some of the crew members would have to coach him on his lines.

I don’t really have any regrets because if I choose not to do something there is usually a very good reason. Once I’ve made the decision I don’t view it as a missed opportunity, just a different path.

I have endless playlists on my iPod so will throw on, say, Bruce Springsteen or The Smiths, depending on what kind of day I’m going to have. When I was 13, I was playing music really loudly in my room. My dad stormed up and told me I could do one of two things: turn it down or keep the volume but play decent music.
