Normally, the main problem with the biographies of unauthorized persons, is famous, the author of the work that person has a specific agenda, which he tries to convey that. However, there is John Baxter's biography of two enigmatic and iconic actor Robert De Niro almost completely impartial approach to his life and craft. His book is set up as more than just a biography of a popular actor, but a detailed account of the people, events and history thatAmerican film scene of the second half of last century.
Artist born in New York, had little interest in the acting of Robert, until he was a friend after a movie he wanted "to do that, he said." As a teenager and young adult, who had his tour in New York with many other actors and directors like Scorsese, De Palma, Pacino and Keitel. He has his share of plays and small films. As a student of Stella Adler, De Niro believes in the supremacy ofCharacter, Strasberg's approach to bring personal belongings of a performance. He then wrapped in its character, that people who had worked with him, does not know who the real De Niro on the set was. It would seem unapproachable, when he appeared at all between shots. Although it may not be classically trained actor, Kenneth Branagh's Frankenstein is the set of report, no one has worked harder. He believes that should earn the right to interpret the character. For the deer hunter,He spent months in Pennsylvania coal-mining town. For Raging Bull, put on 40 pounds and 500 rounds fought boxes of exposure. For the Godfather Part II (Michael, I traveled to the bed) in Sicily, and took the dialect.
He was so wrapped up in its approach, the artists just as peculiar as Martin Scorsese would be instantly attracted to him. There is no doubt that the cement produced per annum in 1976 movie Taxi Driver De Niro and the other children in New York on HollywoodLandscape. Jodi Foster, then 14, recalled the trials and testing the central scene dinner with him. He admitted that he was on the point of boredom, has done so many times. This is when she had the epiphany that this is exactly what to do, to make a scene, as De Niro.
No is full and accurate biography praising Baxter addresses De Niro failures and off the screen. He misses her, (Cannonball Run, The King of Comedy, Rocky and Bullwinkle) andFor a time he was billed as the most successful actors in Hollywood are not profitable. From what I could gather from his lips Baxter narrow approach to his private life has been a rocky one. Move from a relationship with another success, Baxter also an allusion to the fact that cocaine did with Robin Williams and John Belushi the night he died in a bungalow at the Chateau Marmont 3.
The only downside of this book is perhaps the greatest mystery of all. Above, Baxter creditsthat's why De Niro is a good actor who collected the impetuous of his father. Not that Robert De Niro Sr. openly embraced his son to work, but that De Niro Jr. was led into the world of fiction, not as a young man so that his father was normal. A failed painter who has spent some time with De Niro Sr. a couple of artist community in upstate New York and Baxter conject had several "intimate relationship with other male artists. Baxter also suggest that it was hisfailures father went to Robert De Niro Jr. to work harder to succeed.
De Niro: A Biography argues that this man, so humble in real life, can his audience with his pure and genuine gravitas bond. To see how the A + list of more than 40 years and many of his films are already considered classics, it is not difficult to see that this statement is true.
