Matt Dillon’s successful film career has spanned over three decades and has showcased his wide range of dramatic and comedic talents. Dillon displayed his versatility with an arresting performance co-starring as a racist cop in the critically acclaimed Paul Haggis film Crash. This role earned him nominations for an Academy award, Golden Globe Award, Screen Actors Guild Award, Critics Choice Award, BAFTA Award and won him an Independent Spirit Award. In addition, the film earned him a Screen Actors Guild Award and a Critics Choice Award for Best Ensemble. As the New York Times’ Film Critic A.O.

He starred opposite Kate Hudson and Owen Wilson in Universal Pictures’ comedies You, Me, and Dupree and Factotum, for which he received glowing reviews for portraying Charles Bukowski’s alter ego when the film premiered at the Cannes Film Festival. From his breakthrough performance in The Outsiders to his hilarious turn as an obsessed private investigator in There’s Something About Mary, he has proven himself to be one of the most diverse actors of his generation.

Matt Dillon’s 5 most popular quotes

English actor

He was nominated twice in the “Best Actor” category at the BAFTA Television Awards and has also won the “Best Actor” award at the 1997 Broadcasting Press Guild Awards. More recently, he garnered critical acclaim for his portrayal as the grandfather of a young boy with autism in “The A Word.”

Christopher Eccleston’s 5 most popular quotes

• No matter how big a name you are, how many big series you’ve been in or how good looking you are, in the end, all actors are secondary to the writer.

Canadian singer
Born: February 16, 1990

The Weeknd, byname of Abel Makkonen Tesfaye, (born February 16, 1990, Toronto, Ontario, Canada), Canadian rhythm-and-blues singer and songwriter who was perhaps best known for his explicit songs about sex and drugs, many of which were autobiographical, and for his soaring falsetto and its singular tremolo.

Tesfaye’s mother and grandmother immigrated in the 1980s to Canada from Ethiopia, and his first language was Amharic. When he was in grade 11, he quit school and left home, devoting himself to unbridled partying. Tesfaye eventually landed a job at American Apparel and at the same time began writing songs about drug use, casual sex, and alienation. He crossed paths with musician and producer Jeremy Rose, and they started working together. Their collaboration yielded three atmospheric songs—“The Morning,” “Loft Music,” and “What You Need”—with lyrics that were partly sung and partly rapped. The songs, credited to The Weeknd, were uploaded as audio files to the video-sharing Web site YouTube in late 2010; their popularity grew exponentially after they were posted to the blog of Canadian rapper Drake.

The Weeknd’s 5 most popular quotes

• Too many people spend money they haven’t earned to buy things they don’t want to impress people they don’t like.
• You fall in love with the little things about someone, like the sound of their laughter and the way their smile forms.
• My purpose is to make exciting music, and I feel like I’ll be doing that for the rest of my life, so there’s no pressure.
• Staying in a hopeless and miserable situation doesn’t make you loyal, it just makes you miserable.
• When I’m faded I forget, I forget what you mean to me. I hope you know what you mean to me.

American actor
Born: February 15, 1907
Died: January 1, 1994

Tall, suave and sophisticated Cesar Romero actually had two claims to fame in Hollywood. To one generation, he was the distinguished Latin lover of numerous musicals and romantic comedies, and the rogue bandit The Cisco Kid in a string of low-budget westerns. However, to a younger generation weaned on television, Romero was better known as the white-faced, green-haired, cackling villain The Joker of the camp 1960s TV series Batman (1966), and as a bumbling corporate villain in a spate of Walt Disney comedies, such as chasing a young Kurt Russell in the fun-packed The Computer Wore Tennis Shoes (1969). Fans and critics alike agreed that Romero was a major talent who proved himself an enduring and versatile star in an overwhelming variety of roles in a career as an actor, dancer and comedian that lasted nearly 60 years.

Cesar Romero was born of Cuban parents in New York City in February 1907. He attended the Collegiate School and Riverdale Country School before working as a ballroom dancer. He first appeared on Broadway in the 1927 production of Lady Do and then in the stage production of Strictly Dishonorable. His first film role was in The Shadow Laughs (1933), after which he gave strong performances in The Devil Is a Woman (1935) and in the Shirley Temple favorite, Wee Willie Winkie (1937).

Cesar Romero’s 5 most popular quotes

• I’m satisfied to go in at the bottom – that’s the best way to learn what things are all about.
• I can’t date women my own age any more – I hate going to cemeteries.
• If my father’s business hadn’t gone broke, I’d be exporting nuts, bolts and sugar machinery right now. What an awful thought!
• I thought it was very humanitarian of Sean Penn and Madonna to marry each other. That way, they make only two people miserable instead of four.
• They would glue the wig to the front of my forehead, and after a while it would give me a headache.
