His childhood and adolescence was spent in search of myself. Michael Madsen, son of fire Calvin Madsen
and well-known screenwriter and winner of awards and prizes, Elaine Madsen was born 25
September 1958, in the nicely-known Chicago, Illinois. In his veins flows the blood of
noble Danes, mixed with rebellious Irish and proud Indian.
Michael grew up to work. In the 14 years he has earned his life laborer
the gas station. Before becoming an actor he worked as a painter and ambulance nurse.
With unbridled nature, he was hippaul, drank a lot, smoked, used drugs and drove like a madman on motorcycles and cars. Many of his friends of youth long gone. Who from a drug overdose, who died in a car accident, who is in prison. The fate of the prisoner was not spared and Michael himself.
"- A couple of times I was in jail in his youth for stealing cars. But my mother always encouraged my classes
art. This is thanks to her I play gangsters in the movies, and not serving life now
conclusion somewhere in the prison. And to steal cars I now have no need. Them at
me so much that nowhere. Some I even keep in the garage of a friend Quentin! "
But not only his mother helped him get rid of a crazy life. Once saw at the theater
John Malkovich, Michael became obsessed with the desire to become an actor. Malkovich he calls his
the godfather of this craft. His first acting experience took place on the stage of Chicago
Steppenwolf theatre, where he played under the direction of John Malkovich.
"Since my childhood I believed that I would be an actor, while all around is not believed. But finally believed when suddenly on the wall opposite saw his own shadow, and somehow realized that I could become an actor. In short, it was a sensation of higher early next... And the fact that it is the top - you necessarily will help. Well, if we go down, as they say, on the ground, that was influenced by a personal meeting with John Malkovich, who believed in me. You can tell he has blessed me with"
Try yourself in the theater, after some time, Michael went out to conquer Hollywood.
To earn extra money he was attached to a gas station in Beverly hills. He soon finds
an agent and began appearing in small roles in TV shows and movies. In 1991, after the release of paintings "Thelma and Louise" by Ridley Scott and "reservoir Dogs Quentin Tarantino, comes to him real fame. By the way the shooting of the scene in "reservoir Dogs" where Vic VEGA attempts of police hostage, Madsen was very hard for me. Despite the fact that he played a hardened and ruthless gangster, scenes of violence, had oppressed him his outright cruelty. And when the hostage uttered the phrase "do Not burn me, I have a small child" Madsen refused to kill him, because he at that time was a new father. Tarantino had to "revive" the character of Tim Roth, so that effectively put an end to the further stay of Mr. Blonde in the movie. Quentin Tarantino in the revocation of his friend Madsen said that Michael is the unrealized Hollywood actor. And it's really unfair. Himself Michael Madsen to the question of does he like to play the bad guys said so:
"Yes, I like the role of villains. When you play a positive character is boring, it's often
a very narrow role. Know why girls like bad guys? Because they are not predictable,
you don't know what expect from them."
In may, Michael Madsen at the invitation of the organizers of the Kiev International film Festival
visited Kyiv. Refusing awaiting his limousine Michael, as a biker with experience, preferred
the wheel Harley-Davidson and independently led a convoy accompanying motorcyclists from
the bike community Skulls MC to the door of the club SKYBAR. After dinner, he noted hospitality
institutions and local cuisine, as well as the intricate interior of the club. At a press briefing for
Kyiv journalists, Michael spoke about the upcoming plans and confirmed his intention to visit the Kiev international film festival, which will be held in September.
