He is a rising star that controls the screen in movies or
television with his aura of laid-back ease. He is 42 years old and has 44
acting credits to his name as well as writer, producer and director. He is
Korean and I was surprised to learn he was born in Gainesville, Georgia USA on
April 8, 1972, making him an American Actor.
Pali Road | Full Drama Mystery
My favorite series of movies so far of his are: Fast and Furious: Tokyo Drift,
Fast and Furious, Fast 5, Fast and Furious 6 and Bullet to the Head with
Sylvester Stallone, as Detective Taylor Kwon. I love action movies, and they
were excellent. Sung played the role of Han Seoul-Oh in all the Fast and
Furious series.
And, currently he is starring in a Fox weekly show titled: Gang
Related which he plays the role of Detective Tae Kim a member of the Los
Angeles elite Gang Task Force. I am looking forward to this show because it is
an action crime thriller with plenty of drama. Sung looks great in his new role
and I cannot wait for the season to begin on May 22, 2014 on Fox.
Sung has acted in 21 television roles and 23 movies and
there are more planned in his future. I wish him the very best in life with
happiness of a true love and a family of his own.
Bullet to the Head
(2012)
The location is New Orleans, a city with some questionable characters as well as some of the best seafood and soul food in the USA. Two hitmen are being double-crossed after doing their job of murder.
James Bonomo, a.k.a. Jimmy Bobo, (Sylvester Stallone) and his partner Louis Blanchard (Jon Seda) hitmen were hired to kill a dirty cop Hank Greely. Washington D.C. Police Detective Taylor Kwon (Sung Kang) comes to New Orleans to fine Greely who stole files from their D.C. police department.
Bruce Willis stole my action heart in 1988 with Die Hard as
Lt. John McClane and I became a fan. Hehas 95 credits to his name and is still
going strong with movies planned into 2015.
Apex_(2021) Bruce is one of my favorites- I have written more about him than any other actor. Number 1 in my heart. I wish him all the love and prayers to make him well.
Hard Kill (2020)
Bruce Willis' character is Donovan Chalmers CEO billionaire tech. He hires mercenaries to protect his important work because it is so valuable. He is mister action in any movies he plays in even though he has men to protect him. No one thought terrorists would kidnap his beautiful daughter to get his present work. Also starring Jesse Metcalfe, Sergio Rizzuto, Tyler Jon Olson. I cannot wait for this movie--I love Bruce Willis action movies and especially his laugh.
Survive the Night (2020)
Frank Clark (Bruce Willis) the father of Rich Clark (Chad Michael Murray) who is a trauma doctor with a family that lives in a nice section of town. Two criminals enter a store to rob it and one is them is shot in the leg. First, they visit a local hospital then, stalks Rich Clark to his home. They take his wife and daughter as hostage demanding he operate on his brother or he will kill his family. Rich teams up with his tough retired sheriff Frank, in order to survive the night.
rings his own fire to the mayhem, and has played in many
of my favorite action movies. I suppose they were my favorites mainly because
of him. He has charisma, uniqueness, and the most adorable laugh in the movies
today.
Armageddon (1998)
Bruce has been in other great films like: Last Man Standing,
Armageddon, The Siege, Tears of the Sun, Lucky Number Slevin, Assassination of
a High School President, The Expendables, The Expendables 2, Red, Red 2 and
G.I. Joe: Retaliation and the list goes on.
Last Man Standing (1996)
He is such a superb actor that is why he is a “Super Star”
and has millions of fans to prove it. He has films planned in the future as far
ahead as 2020, and I am sure he will act in many more to follow. I had all the
Die Hard early Movies on video and I wore them out watching them and sharing
them with my family. So, I will need to replace them with DVD’s very soon;
because I miss my Die Hard weekend movies. He is number 1 with me--I love his movies.
Liam Neeson is one of the finest actors on stage, screen and television today. Before I mention my favorite movies of his, I want to talk
about him being a great father. Before all else he is a father then an actor
and, I admire his dedication to that fact.
My heart was with him in 2009 when he lost his dear
beautiful wife Natasha Richardson whom he married in July 1994. They had two
sons together in their 15 years of marriage. I am sure their hearts still ache for
their loss.

THE MEMORY 2022
Taken 2
Liam is 61 years old---he was born in Ballymena, United
Kingdom June 7th, 1952. He has played many diverse characters in his
career of 96 movies. And, now he is considered an action actor as
we have seen in the movies Taken and Taken 2 with Taken 3 in his future, which
will be announced later.
I liked his character of Briar Gates in Next of Kin starring
Patrick Swayze.
And, My next favorite movie is Shining Through starring Michael
Douglas and Melanie Griffith. His character was Franze-Otto Dietrich a Nazi
German Officer---he was great in this movie.
I have watched so many of his movies
with the exception of Schindler’s List---I just cannot watch such sad movies.
He shines in every movie and has millions of fans and I am one of them.
Unknown
I wish Liam and his family the very best and may their
future be bright with love and happiness. His movies are a testimonial of why
he has so many fans and admirers of other actors and actresses. And, we will be
honored to see more of his performances in future films. This is why he is included on my
Blog of Accolades---Actors and Actresses. This is one of his latest movies that I want to see: Non-Stop
Cameron
Bancroft is a Canadian actor born May 17th 1967 in WinnipegCanada. He has 67
titles to his credit with more in his future. He is a husband, and a father of two
children. He has performed on stage, screen and television from a early age.
I
adored the types of TV movies he chose to act in because I can enjoy them with
my family. From my research I found he started his career in General Hospital a
very popular soap on ABC in the USA. However, before that he starred in CBCsThe Beachcombers
(1985-1991) My favorite TV movies are the ones in the 1800s, I would like a
time machine to visit that period----but not stay as I need my computer and DVD's.
Because of Cameron's hiking accident he could not play professional hockey---and he was a great player and was recruited by WHL hockey team to play for the Kamloop Blazers. But he does play with the NHL Celebrity Hockey team, which is great for him.
Cameron is a very talented actor who has magnetism in his
movies and his method of acting reminds me of the saying---still waters run
deep—which should get and keep the viewers' attention, especially the ladies.
The first movie I saw of his was Hannah's Law, which took place in the 1800s, but Cameron's role was very short-lived as he played Hannah's father that was shot by thieves, which came to their home for fresh horses.
I thought it was the first and then I remembered---"Mystery Alaska" (1999) with Russell Crowe. Cameron played "Tinker" Connolly a very good hockey player for Mystery Alaska's team.
And another movie I liked very much was also in the 1800s and the
title is Mail OrderBride. Also, here is a short trailer about the movie.
He Sees You When You're Sleeping (2002)
Cameron has a TV movie for 2013 titled Garage Sale Mystery (September 14th
2013 on USA Network) mark your calendars for a great treat.
Daniel Sunjata is an
American actor who has acted in films, television and theater. It is
difficult to believe he is only 41 years old with a very full resume already in
life.
He has 32 titles to his credit and has just finished a movie titled
“Lullaby” a drama which may premiere in 2013---no additional
information at this time.
Daniel Sunjata is a tall dark handsome actor with dimples that accents
his full lips. He is the hunk in my mind when I write some of my poems
as well as other “Eye-Candy Hunks” of my favorite actors. I appreciate beauty
in any living creature (and creature meaning any living person or animal.)
Daniel is now playing
in “Graceland” on USA Network as the renowned FBI agent Paul Briggs. Paul
is the protector of the undercover unit of agents from the FBI, DEA and ICE,
each agent respects him for his knowledge and skills.
One main difference in this unit—the six agents are required to live
together in a beach home in Southern California; which was seized by
the government in a drug raid. This beautiful beach house is now owed by the
government for the benefit of catching drug criminals of the highest order. These
agents are the “Cream of the Crop” the supreme chosen few. The beautiful beach
house is privately known as “Graceland.”
Undercover
agents are professional liars as well as the best actors/actresses---as
they need to be to save their life---and to protect the other agents. Because in
the real world one has to be
persuasive because these criminals will kill without
blinking. So no amateurs can be in the Elite Agent’s Unit---only the best have a chance to survive.
The other actor and actresses in Graceland are magnificent:
Mike Warren ( Aaron Tveit) the newest agent who is stealthfully investigating
Paul Briggs for the FBI; Joe “Johnny” Tuturro (Manny Montana) he is the
toughest and all around most talented---almost a Navy SEAL—not to forget so very
cute---with a big heart; Paige Arkin (Serinda Swan) She is a true
professional and doesn’t mind sharing her knowledge if she thinks it will help
another agent; Catherine “Charlie” DeMarco (Vanessa Ferlito) she is
one of the best actresses to play this type of action, crime drama in
television today--- and so believable in her role—she is a five star actress in
my book of favorites---and Dale Jakes (Brandon Jay McLaren) is simply
magnificent in his role---I would be so afraid of him in real life---he is that
authentic.
All of these characters have the capability of eliciting belief in
their roles and this is how real undercover agents would conduct themselves in
the same situations---at least I believe it.
I really enjoyed the movie “Gone” where Detective Powers (Daniel Sunjata)
who had an inflated ego, yes---he was
overconfident/arrogant. He thought his professional surveillance was above
reproach. And sometime even when the---truth is standing in front of him---he
is blind.
This is a really good movie and Jill (Amanda Seyfried) was great in
this movie as were all the characters. The film had some great shots with
the forest in the background including the bridge that crossed a beautiful river that
flowed swiftly through the forest. I would see this film again---it is that
good.
The main character Jill lived in Portland Oregon with her sister Molly
(Emily
Wickersham) staying with her. Jill was a waitress and Molly was going
to college in their city. Both had suffered the great loss of both parents within
a short time of each other.
It was especially hard for Jill because shortly after her parent’s
death she was kidnapped and put in a deep hole in the forest. She
managed to get out of the hole after finding human remains in it and was
rescued by a hiker. She was covered with mud and hysterical---as anyone would
be when found.
The police patted themselves on this blue backs for doing a good job of
searching and did not find the hole Jill said she had been in. Now it
is not possible they searched the entire forest inch by inch. But they just knew their search was handled properly because they used police dogs---so they thought they proved their point.
They
concluded even though she was in bad shape when found that it was all her
imagination and no real kidnapper existed---because she had been under the
care of apsychiatrist at a psychiatric institution after her parents death for a while---therefore to not further the investigation because they were right and just in their decision.
Then her sister was kidnapped and the police again did not
believe her---but she
proved them wrong.
A very good movie and this one I will watch again.
I loved Daniel Sunjata as Richardo“Ranger” Carlos Manoso in “One for the Money”he
and Katherine Heigl had great chemistry together on the screen. And I
would like to see them together again in another movie.
Stephanie Plum is out of a job and out of money---so she goes
to work for her cousin Vinnie as a bail enforcement agent with no gear,
or training and no skills. She received lessons, and a gun from Ranger---he seems to always
be around to help her out. We all need protection from someone like Ranger.
I also liked him as Win Garano a Boston Detective in At Risk and The
Front with Andie MacDowell—these movies were based on---Patricia
Cornwell’s novels.
Andie MacDowell played Monique Lamont a Boston District Attorney who is
sexually promiscuous, very wealthy, and politically ambitious as she
wants to be the next governor.
And I have to mention my favorite person Nana (Diahann
Carroll) I just her character Nana in this movie---we all need a lively
fun-loving magical Nana like this one.The Front and At Risk are two movies I will see again---I
really enjoyed them both---and the perfect actors and actresses were chosen for
the roles.
This blog is to spotlight some of my favorite actors and actresses
who have brought so many fans enjoyment and enriched to our lives with
entertainment that lasts a live time. And to accent the pleasure one can always
buy the DVD’s of their favorite movies.
Leonardo
Wilhelm DiCaprio was born November 11, 1974 in Los Angeles, California. Leo an only child of his parents---George and Inmelin DiCaprio.
They hired an agent for Leo when he was very young. Leo began acting in commercials
and appearing on educational shows. He had small parts in various shows before
his big break.
In 1991 he was on Roseanne one of the most popular show at the
time---as one of Darlene’s classmates--- and that was a beginning to his successful
career as an actor. And now he has 35 titles to his credit and he is only 38
years old.
He is now a very handsome man(a boy no longer) with blond hair and beautiful blue eyes that can make any female’s heart palpitate and I am sure his parents are very proud of their son. He is a gentleman without the usual Hollywood gossip following behind him. I am very proud of him as a fan since I do not personally know him.
In 1997 he stole the hearts of many ladies of all ages---in
his role as Jack Dawson in Titanic---he was absolutely great. And I have played
by DVD of Titanic so many times I need another copy. He was completely believable
as Jack Dawson---a young boy who traveled on his own---with the freedom of
living anywhere and enjoying his life while using his talent of drawing as a form
of making a living. Jack was not afraid to show his love to a rich girl who
loved him and his freedom to do as he pleased.
Some of My Favorite Scenes in Titanic
I don’t think there has ever been a movie as fascinating as
Titanic was to so many, with its music and the song by Celine Dion was one of
the most beautiful songs ever in a movie---in my opinion I could listen to her all day. I get chills every
time I hear it.
Leo has played many great parts in so many movies and I believe
I have seen them all with the exception of some of the newest ones. Since I
missed the movies I will get the DVD’s. I try to support all my favorite actors and actresses by seeing their movies and/or
buying their DVD’s if possible.
Every year his movies are better and better and so now he has soared
above the stars to shine brightlyin the Heavens---maybe to share his talent
with the Angels. Don’t forget to come back to earth for all your fans Leo---we
are waiting for more movies.
Here are some of his latest movies: Leo can play any part and bring it to life on the screen. Such a handsome vision of The Great Gatsby a man of many facets to his character; one of love, friendship, fun guy who likes big parties. He seems to like a crowd, until he meets the one woman who keeps his attention longer than a minute.
Then "The Wolf of Wall Street" which is a true story of a man who has excess of everything a man could want. He had money which he gain from his brilliant illegal ways, women, homes, trips, you name it he had it, and the best of it all. Until the Federal Government go involved and then he was in trouble.
Who else could play this part better than Leo? No one who has been born yet. He will always be one of the best actors in my book; and I am one of his fans.
Charles Bronson was a super star and mostly played the parts of policeman like Family of Cops 1, 2 and 3. He played a gunfighter in many westerns like the Dirty Dozen, Chino and many more. He was a vigilante like in Death Wish, Death Wish 2 and Death Wish 3---where he punished the guilty.
His first movie was "You’re
in the Navy Now” in 1951 he acted until 1999 in the movie “Family of Cops 3” which
was a TV Movie-- he was then 78 years old. He was one of the best action and adventure actors in
movie history.
And he was still very active in this
movie which he starred in also played with him was his third wife Kim Weeks
who was very lovely and they had great charisma together.
He met his first wife Harriett Tendler in 1947 when she was
eighteen (18) and he was twenty-six (26) and his name was Charles Buchinsky
then---it was later changed it to Charles Bronson. Harriett and Charles were in
acting school together in Pennsylvania, but she gave it up and got a job so he
could continue his career.
They were married for 16 years before they divorced.
She has written a book titled “Charlie and Me” which is available online.
Death Wish (1974)
Charles Bronson married Jill Island in 1968 until her death
from breast cancer in 1990; they were married twenty-two (22) years. She was very beautiful with blond hair and
blue eyes. After their marriage she was
in fourteen movies with him and they were a great team in films and in life.
Cold Sweat (1970)
The Bronson family was a family that played
together---with their seven (7) children---two of his by his marriage to
Harriet and she had three (3) from her previous marriage to David McCallum a
Scottish actor. Charles and Jill had one daughter together Zuleika and they adopted one
daughter.
Assassination (1987)
They wanted to be together always and they were until she
died. She played with Charles Bronson in the movie “Assassination” which I
enjoyed watching last week on Fox’s new movie channel. I feel Jill Ireland was
the love of his life. And I say this for one reason---one can tell by watching two people on screen and in real life they were always together. And another reason is because he stayed single for eight (8) years before he remarried
to his third and final wife Kim Weeks.
The Dirty Dozen (1967)
Charles Bronson is credit with 161 amazing titles. And his
family said he not like he appeared in the movies---but a sweet lovable teddy
bear of a man who loved his family.
I am so sorry I did not get to see all his
films from the beginning but it was before my time---but I can enjoy DVD’s of his movies. His Death Wish
Trilogy was very popular at the time. And he played in many westerns and was in
the famous original “Magnificent Seven” which I want to see again.
Charles
Bronson was unique---the quiet man with rough edges that will astound you with
his acting talent--- and if you have never seen one of his movies---you are in
for a treat.
He was born November 3, 1921 in Ehrenfeld, Pennsylvania and died August 30, 2003 in
Los Angeles of Pneumonia.
He was one of thirteen(13) children born to a Polish-Lithuanian
father and a Lithuanian- American mother. He never forgot his roots.
