David Carradine

David Carradine

John Arthur Carradine, més conegut com a David Carradine (Hollywood, 8 de desembre de 1936 - Bangkok, 3 de juny de 2009) fou un actor de cinema estatunidenc, destacat pel seu treball a la sèrie Kung fu i més recentment a la pel·lícula Kill Bill.

Carradine va néixer el 8 de desembre de 1936 a la localitat californiana de Hollywood, sent fill de l'actor John Carradine i germanastre de Keith Carradine i Robert Carradine. Va començar la seva carrera cinematogràfica l'any 1964 en el western Taggart.

No va aconseguir brillar en la seva carrera com a actor, ja que va quedar encasellat pel seu personatge a la sèrie televisiva Kung fu (entre 1972 i 1975), interpretant al monjo xaolin sinoamericà Kwai Chang Caine. Aquest personatge havia de ser interpretat originalment per Bruce Lee, però al final el paper es va adjudicar a Carradine perquè Lee tenia trets massa asiàtics.

El 4 de juny de 2009, va ser trobat mort en una habitació de l'hotel Park Nai Lert a Bangkok (Tailàndia). Encara que els mitjans locals inicialment van informar que Carradine s'havia suïcidat penjant-se al servei de l'habitació del seu hotel, més tard el seu agent va afirmar que la mort de l'actor s'hauria produït per causes naturals. Informacions posteriors indiquen que la mort no va ser per causes naturals ni tampoc un suïcidi, sinó una mort accidental per asfíxia autoinfligida amb la finalitat d'augmentar la seva estimulació sexual durant una masturbació.

Barbara Hershey

Barbara Hershey

Barbara Lynn Herzstein, better known as Barbara Hershey (born February 5, 1948), is an American actress. In a career spanning more than 50 years, she has played a variety of roles on television and in cinema in several genres, including Westerns, horrors, and comedies. She began acting at age 17 in 1965, but did not achieve widespread critical acclaim until the 1980s. By that time, the Chicago Tribune referred to her as "one of America's finest actresses".

Hershey won an Emmy and a Golden Globe for Outstanding Lead Actress in a Miniseries/TV Film for her role in A Killing in a Small Town (1990). She received Golden Globe nominations for Best Supporting Actress for her role as Mary Magdalene in The Last Temptation of Christ (1988) and for her role in The Portrait of a Lady (1996). For the latter film, she was nominated for an Academy Award for Best Supporting Actress and won the Los Angeles Film Critics Award for Best Supporting Actress. She has won two Best Actress awards at the Cannes Film Festival for her roles in Shy People (1987) and A World Apart (1988). She was featured in Woody Allen's Hannah and Her Sisters (1986), for which she was nominated for the British Academy Film Award for Best Supporting Actress and Garry Marshall's melodrama Beaches (1988), and she earned a second British Academy Film Award nomination for Darren Aronofsky's Black Swan (2010).

Establishing a reputation early in her career as a hippie, Hershey experienced conflict between her personal life and her acting goals. Her career declined during a six-year relationship with actor David Carradine, with whom she had a child. She experimented with a change in stage name to Barbara Seagull. During this time, her personal life was highly publicized and ridiculed. Her acting career was not well established until she separated from Carradine and changed her stage name back to Hershey. In 1990, later in her career, she reportedly began to keep her personal life private.
