Life of George Clooney


Born May 6, 1961 in Lexington, Kentucky, George
Clooney spent almost a decade in acting
obscurity before landing the role of television's
hottest heartthrob in the medical drama ER in
1994.
Studied a few years at Northern Kentucky
University. Failed to join the Cincinnati Reds
baseball team. He came to acting when his
cousin, Miguel Ferrer, got him a small part in a
feature film. After that, he moved to L.A. in 1982
and tried a whole year to get a role while he slept
in a friend's closet. His first movie, together with
Charlie Sheen, stayed unreleased but got him the
producers' attention for later contracts.

He is my favorite actor because he is
original and he plays very good in
movies.
He likes to have fun and he is
modestly.
Ocean`s eleven review

Loosely based on the 1960 Rat Pack film of the same name, OCEAN'S 11
is a hi-tech crime comedy that features a top-notch cast. Con man Danny
Ocean (George Clooney) has just been released from a four-year jail term
and decides that his first order of business is robbing three Las Vegas
casinos owned by the slimy Terry Benedict (Andy Garcia). To pull off this
nearly impossible task, he quickly assembles an eclectic crew--including a
card shark (Brad Pitt), a pickpocket (Matt Damon), an explosives expert
(Don Cheadle), and an aging gambler (Carl Reiner)--and seeks financial
backing from a freewheeling casino mogul (Elliott Gould) who holds a
grudge against Benedict. However, it soon becomes apparent that Ocean
has more at stake than money and his newly found freedom--his ex-wife,
Tess (Julia Roberts), just happens to be Benedict's new girlfriend. Can
Ocean steal back Tess's heart and more than a hundred million dollars at
the same time? Continuing an impressive streak of films that began with
OUT OF SIGHT and THE LIMEY and exploded into even wider acclaim and
popularity with ERIN BROCKOVICH and TRAFFIC, Steven Soderbergh
helms this star-studded caper flick with a strong sense of style and humor.
Clooney and Pitt, in particular, have a great rapport and both exude a
suave, laid-back charm. Damon, Cheadle, Gould, and Reiner all provide
excellent comic turns, while Garcia gives an appropriately sinister
performance. The whole glittery package is topped off by David Holmes'
engaging score, which ties together the sounds and moods of Hollywood
past and present.
