基努李維和亞歷克斯溫特 (Keanu Reeves and Alex Winter )為《等待果陀》做好準備 :經過多年的訓練(小丑、舞踏等等),這對老朋友終於在百老匯上演了塞繆爾·貝克特這部氣勢恢宏的戲劇。Keanu Reeves (61歲奇洛李維斯(大明星)平凡度日) is a Canadian actor and musician. Don McLean

Reeves and Winter stand back-to-back.
The idea of reuniting with Winter “came from the universe, and when it struck me it rang a gleeful bell,” Reeves said.

Keanu Reeves was deep in some narrow library stacks, wedged between biographies and Ph.D. theses, when — not for the first time that April afternoon — he started channeling one of Samuel Beckett’s most famous works. “Do you see me?” he said, standing tall with one hand outstretched and declaiming in the style of Estragon, from “Waiting for Godot.” “But do you see me?”

Beside him was Alex Winter, his friend of nearly four decades, the everlasting Bill to his most excellent Ted, ready to jump in and finish the thought. They had traveled to the University of Reading, in England, to tour its comprehensive Beckett archives, as they prepared to star this fall in “Waiting for Godot” on Broadway.

基努·李維斯正埋頭於圖書館狹窄的書架間,被傳記和博士論文夾在中間。這時——這並非他第一次在那個四月的下午——他開始吟誦塞繆爾·貝克特最著名的作品之一。 「你看到我了嗎?」他說道,一邊高高地站著,伸出一隻手,像《等待果陀》中愛斯特拉岡那樣朗誦。 “但是你看到我了嗎?”

在他身邊的是亞歷克斯·溫特,他近四十年的摯友,也是他最優秀的泰德永遠的“比爾”,隨時準備接手完成這個想法。他們前往英國雷丁大學參觀其豐富的貝克特檔案,為今年秋天在百老匯主演《等待果陀》做準備。



祝基努李維生日快樂🎉基努以其令人難忘的角色和低調的謙遜而聞名,他已不僅僅是一位銀幕明星——在這個常常被遺忘這些價值觀的世界裡,他像徵著善良和踏實的生活。 🌟
值此他又是週年之際,我們不僅要致敬他的藝術造詣,更要致敬他如何繼續用他的同情心和真誠激勵他人。願他未來的旅程充滿光明、喜悅和持續的創造力。 💫

基努·查爾斯·李維斯是一位加拿大演員兼音樂家。在四十年的銀幕生涯中,他獲得了無數讚譽。 2020年,《紐約時報》將他評為21世紀第四大演員;2022年,《時代》雜誌將他評為全球最具影響力的100人之一。維基百科
出生:1964年9月2日(60歲),黎巴嫩貝魯特
即將上映的電影:《芭蕾舞女演員》、《好運連連》

在拍攝電影《湖畔小屋》時,他無意中聽到兩位服裝助理的對話,一位女士正在哭泣,因為如果不支付2萬美元,她將失去自己的房子。他把這筆錢存入了她的帳戶。
2010年生日那天,他獨自走進一家麵包店,買了一個插著一根蠟燭的紙杯蛋糕。他在外面享用蛋糕的同時,也為所有顧客提供免費的咖啡和麵包。這是他奢華的生日。
他從《駭客任務》三部曲中賺得的錢,都分給了特效人員5000萬美元,因為在他看來,他們才是電影的真正英雄。
除了像特技這樣非常特殊的事情,他幾乎從不使用特技演員,為此,他給每位特技演員一輛哈雷戴維森摩托車,以表彰他們的辛勤工作。
直到今天,他仍然定期搭乘地鐵和其他公共交通工具,例如公車,因為這是最實用的交通工具,而且他從不以此為恥。
許多醫院表示,他們從他那裡獲得了數千萬美元的資助。
他捐出了自己在某些電影中90%的片酬,以便製作方能夠聘請其他明星。
1997年,一名狗仔隊在街上發現他坐在一個無家可歸的人旁邊,傾聽他講述自己的生活,並和他一起吃早餐。
我們所知道的關於基努·裡維斯的所有優點都不是他自己說的,而是那些從他那裡受益的人所說的。他從未公開表露過任何事。
縱觀他所經歷的一切,他本可以對生活抱持更悲傷、更悲觀的看法,但儘管如此,他還是選擇在所有的邪惡中展現出那份美好。

Keanu Charles Reeves is a Canadian actor and musician. He is the recipient of numerous accolades in a career on screen spanning four decades. In 2020, The New York Times ranked him as the fourth-greatest actor of the 21st century, and in 2022 Time magazine named him one of the 100 most influential people in the world. Wikipedia
Born: September 2, 1964 (age 60 years), Beirut, Lebanon
Upcoming movies: Ballerina, Good Fortune



While shooting the movie "The Lake House", he overheard the conversation between two costume assistants, and a woman was crying because she would lose her house if she didn't pay a sum of 20 thousand dollars. He deposited it into her account.
On his birthday in 2010, he went into a bakery alone and bought a cupcake with a single candle. While he ate it outside, he offered free coffee and bread to all customers. This was his luxury birthday.
With what he earned from the Matrix trilogy, he distributed 50 million dollars to the special effects personnel, because according to him, they were the real heroes of the films.
He almost never used stuntmen, except for very specific things like stunts, and for this reason he recognized the work of his stuntmen by giving each of them a Harley Davidson motorcycle.
To this day, he regularly uses the subway and other public transportation systems such as the bus when necessary because it is the most practical thing, and he is never ashamed.
A large number of hospitals say they have received tens of millions of dollars from him.
He donated 90% of his salary in some films so that the production could hire other stars.
In 1997, a paparazzo found him on the street sitting next to a homeless man, listening to the homeless man's life and having breakfast with him.
All the good we know about Keanu Reeves was not told to us by him, but by those who benefited from him. He never declared anything.
For everything he has experienced, he could have had a sadder and more pessimistic view of life, but despite this he chose to be that something good among all the evil there is.

Happy Birthday to Keanu Reeves 🎉 Known for his unforgettable roles and his quiet humility, Keanu has become more than just a star on screen—he’s a symbol of kindness and grounded living in a world that often forgets those values. 🌟
As he celebrates another year, we honor not only his artistry but also the way he continues to inspire others through his compassion and authenticity. May his journey ahead be filled with light, joy, and continued creativity. 💫

捐贈70%片酬給醫院治療白血病患者 奇洛李維斯平凡度日




奇洛李維斯出生在一個有問題的家庭:當他12歲時,他的父親涉嫌販賣毒品,之後他的父母在同一年離婚。


多年以後,當他剛剛開始成名,他遇到了他的夢想的女孩。他女友懷孕了,但孩子沒有活下來。這並沒有阻止他對她的深愛,他們都仍然要結婚了。然而,她在一次嚴重的車禍,死在他的面前。


同時,他的妹妹得了白血病病倒了。今天,她恢復了,奇洛捐贈了70%從電影“Matrix”的片酬給醫院治療同樣患白血病的患者。


而現在,已成為著名的明星,他仍然住很謙虛:他卻常穿著開口的破鞋趴趴走,他有沒有保鏢,他不會買昂貴的衣服和高檔住宅,生活在一個小公寓,平常搭的是很普通的地鐵,還被民眾拍到讓座給婦人,或是被發現像個流浪漢在公園內吃著三明治。 During his initial rise to stardom, Reeves preferred to live in rental houses and hotels. He was also a long-term resident of the Chateau Marmont. However, around 2003, Reeves bought his first house in the Hollywood Hills of Los Angeles. He has since purchased an apartment in Central Park West, New York City.[32]


您更會驚奇地發現,當你發現他的生日那天,他沒有邀請嘉賓或慶祝的東西;僅僅只去商店,買了一個蛋糕,獨自吃飯。其中一個流浪漢知道是他和他打招呼,奇洛也與他分享,給了流浪漢一半食物。

一份善念一份善行就有一分福報,在此為奇洛李維斯送上祝福!

Keanu Charles Reeves missed the first 20 minutes of the party dedicated to the end of filming of his new film in one of the clubs in New York.
He waited patiently in the rain to be let in.
No one recognized him.
The club owner said: "I didn't even know Keanu was standing in the rain waiting to be let in - he didn't say anything to anyone."
"He travels by public transport".
"He easily communicates with homeless people on the street and helps them".
- He is only 56 years old (September 2, 1964)
- He can just eat a hot dog in the park, sitting between ordinary people.
- After filming one of the "Matrix", he gave all the stuntmen a new motorcycle - in recognition of their skill.
- He gave up most of the fee for the salaries of costume designers and computer scientists who draw special effects in "The Matrix" - decided that their share of participation in the budget of the film was underestimated.
- He reduced his fee in the film The Devil's Advocate" to have enough money to invite Al Pacino.
- Almost at the same time his best friend died; his girlfriend lost a child and soon died in a car accident, and his sister fell ill with leukemia.
Keanu did not break: he donated $ 5 million to the clinic that treated his sister, refused to shoot (to be with her), and created the Leukemia Foundation, donating significant sums from each fee for the film.
You can be born a man, but to remain one..

我奶奶以前迷戀過基努李維,因為他讓她想起年輕時的爺爺。從《阿比阿弟的冒險》(Bill & Ted)到《駭客任務》,她每部都看過。

奶奶大概七十出頭時中風了,之後幾乎都只能待在家裡,行動不便。她的日常就是看電影,電影內的角色就像是她的朋友,因為她已經很少有機會能見到別人了。

有一次我舅舅去洛杉磯出差,在一家高級餐廳吃飯,基努李維剛好走進來,還帶著一位女性朋友。舅舅吃完飯後,鼓起勇氣走到基努桌邊說:

「我不會打擾您太久,但我想讓您知道,我80歲的媽媽超喜歡你,因為你讓她想起我爸。」

結果基努問道:

「你有她的電話嗎?」當我舅舅說有的時候,基努說:

「那給我,我想跟她講話。」

然後他就真的跟我奶奶講了好幾分鐘的電話,這通電話對她來說意義非凡。那時的她真的非常孤單,而基努這份真誠的關心、願意花時間和她聊天,真的讓我奶奶一整年都閃閃發光。

這件事讓我們全家都深深感受到:這個男人不只是螢幕上的英雄,本人也是少有的心地柔軟溫暖的人。

Two rock-'n-rolling teens, on the verge of failing their class, set out on a quest to make the ultimate school history report after being presented with a time machine.




唐·麥克林受到Buddy Holly約翰·甘迺迪過世相當大的影響。在他私人的生活上,他忍受著父親在1961年過世後所帶來的痛苦。麥克林於1963年Iona Preparatory School畢業,但是進入位於賓夕法尼亞州Villanova University只不過四個後就休學了。稍後他進入了位於紐約Iona College就讀夜校,並在1968年於此校獲得"工商管理"的學士學位。他在學校的活動中已經是一位很受歡迎的民謠歌手,在紐約藝術廳(New York State Council on the Arts)的獎金幫助之下,他開始接觸更多的大眾活動,在Hudson River附近的城鎮來回穿梭著。他從友人兼精神導師Pete Seeger那裡學習到了表演的藝術,麥克林在1969年隨著Seeger駕著他的船順著哈德遜河(Hudson River)而上,目的是伸張對此河流環保問題的主張。這個清水活動對於改善此河流的水質立下很大的功勞。[1]

[編輯] 歌曲

[編輯] "American Pie"

主條目:American Pie

唐·麥克林最著名的創作 "American Pie"常被用來詮釋與形容Buddy HollyRitchie ValensThe Big Bopper1959年2月3日飛機失事而死亡的事件。尤其是"那天就是音樂的祭日"(The Day the Music Died)這句歌詞最常被廣泛運用。麥克林也曾指出歌曲裡的詞句是他個人自傳,也抽象呈現他在50年代中期到60年代撰寫歌曲時的人生故事,[來源請求]。根據家鄉傳說 "the levy" 是他家鄉的酒吧-靠近"Iona College" 的"Beechmont Tavern"。"American Pie" 這首歌的涵意象徵了在那時期不斷激化與激烈改變的流行音樂,導致之前在1950年代發展出以輕快愉悅為特色的搖滾樂,轉變成[[1960年]代晚期以黑暗、省思、憤世嫉俗與增加社會關注為主的類型,這樣的轉變是由社會劇烈的轉變與浮動的政治氣氛驅使而成,音樂在此其中當然也被捲入其中,且在60年代末期要為變化中的美國下個定義。[來源請求]

唐·麥克林的 "American Pie" 也存在對於音樂三十多年來歷史的仔細觀察與哲學詮釋的議題,學者、現代美國文學的教授與他的歌迷仍繼續找尋著歌曲中更為深邃的意義。在訪問中麥克林逗趣的 說到,有許多關於這首歌的詮釋其實是假設的,很多關於這首歌的說法與涵意,其實他根本沒有提過也從未證實過。[來源請求]


American Pie

1971年発表。8分30秒の大作。アメリカのロック創世期に活躍したバディ・ホリーリッチー・バレンズザ・ビッグ・ボッパーなどが犠牲になった飛行機事故を題材にした曲である(曲中で繰り返される「The Day the Music Died」は、飛行機事故の当日をさしている)。

2000年に映画『2番目に幸せなこと』の主題歌としてマドンナにカバーされた。

[編集] Vincent

1972年発表。オランダ出身の画家、フィンセント・ファン・ゴッホにささげられた曲。ゴッホの伝記を読んだ1971年に書かれたという。「Starry Starry Night」という歌詞で始まるが、これはゴッホの「The Starry Night(邦題:星月夜)」という絵に由来する。



[編輯] 其他歌曲

麥克林其他為人所熟知的歌曲包括了:

American Pie專輯收錄了一首歌曲Babylon是由麥克林與(The Weavers)的"Lee Hays"一同製作。樂團Boney M則在1978年將這首歌曲重新錄製為歌名Rivers of Babylon的版本,也在英國獲得了暢銷榜第一名的成績,不過這兩首歌的編曲與表現方式十分不同,以致於在聽到時不會隨即聯想這是同樣的一首歌。

1980年,麥克林創作了一首由Roy Orbison演唱獲得全球第一名的暢銷經典歌曲 "Crying",這首歌曲是先在海外發行取得成功後才在美國出版,成為了1981年前十名的暢銷作品。Orbison 本人曾說過麥克林是:" 本世紀的聲音。" ,並在之後再度錄製本歌曲且混合了麥克林的版本。

[編輯] 晚期作品

1991年,麥克林的"American Pie"因為重新成為話題而再度回到英國金榜前二十名的排行上,這首歌在2000年又因為瑪丹娜重新編曲演唱而再度成為全球大熱門歌曲。

2006年,他繼續著自己從美國延伸到歐洲的巡迴演唱活讀,新專輯Addicted to Black在這之後就會搭配他的自傳Killing Us Softly: The Don McLean Story一 起發行。一位同樣也是歌手兼創作人的藝人"Lori Lieberman",曾在演唱會看了麥克林演唱自己的創作 "Empty Chairs" ,之後就有感而發的寫下了一首名為 "Killing me softly with his blue"。藉此詩為靈感,之後兩位創作人Norman Gimbel/Charles Fox 也才寫出經典歌曲"Killing Me Softly with His Song。"
