BRUCE GREENWOOD as "Myles Billingsley"
In just the past year, Bruce Greenwood has starred in the feature films Rules Of Engagement, with Tommy Lee Jones and Samuel L. Jackson; Here On Earth, featuring Leelee Sobieski; Cord, with Darryl Hannah and Jennifer Tilley; and in the role of "John F. Kennedy" in Roger Donaldson's Thirteen Days.
The busy actor also starred with Tommy Lee Jones in the thriller Double Jeopardy; with Alec Baldwin in Thick As Thieves; and with Robin Williams and Billy Crystal in Father's Day. As well, Greenwood's performances in Atom Egoyan's critically acclaimed films The Sweet Hereafter and Exotica earned him two Genie Award nominations for Best Actor.
On television, Greenwood's recent credits include the CBS movie Soul Collector, and The Colour Of Courage. Greenwood had regular roles on St. Elsewhere, Sleepwalkers, Nowhere Man and Hardball, and a guest-starring role on the popular series The Larry Sanders Show. For his guest-starring role as "Caleb Stokes" on an episode of Road To Avonlea, Greenwood garnered a 1994 Gemini Award. He performed lead roles in the mini-series Naomi & Wynonna: Love Can Build A Bridge and Judith Krantz' Dazzle; starred as "Dennis Wilson" in Summer Of Dreams: The Story Of The Beach Boys; and earned a 1990 Gemini Award nomination for his role in Disney's The Little Kidnappers, with Charlton Heston.
A native of Quebec, Greenwood traveled to Vancouver, B.C., where he performed in numerous stage productions including the Arts Club tours of Bent, Cruel Tears and Hay Fever. He studied at the American Academy of Dramatic Arts in New York.
This is an excellent account of Bruce Greenwood's career and the first biography to ever include all his award nominations. There is some confusion about his personal life, however, since he actually never lived in Quebec and was born there only because his father was working on a mining project at the time during a Summer break between graduate degrees. It might also be noted that the biography seems to correlate to the year Haven was released (2000) rather than the year CTV is broadcasting the film.
