-George, have you ever experienced depression on the set made you popular" Ambulance"? Blood, death, drunks and drug addicts... How was constantly faced with this, to maintain emotional balance?
- You interested? Ho-ro-sho (sahotas smile). After the command "Stop! " the dead got up and lit a good Cuban cigarillos... And are continuing to swim in the laughter) and, death began to seem unreal. Yes, Yes... We were not engaged in self-flagellation and not bathed in suffering: patients admitted and discharged, died, and survived... And we (dissolving in laughter) just peredelyvali fingers: "okay, next! "
Filigree ability to reduce the hopelessly sad verbal squabble or any ridiculous situation irony accompanies the actor everywhere: when discussing heavy millionths of fees, on a preheated limits set in the circle of unfamiliar pushing guests. In fleeting affair, in the end... He was always the center of attention. And then, about thirty-seven years ago, six-year-old Tomboy once on television, George was impressed...
Fairy gnome
6-year-old little cutie stood backstage TV platform (on which his father Nick Clooney successful in the sixties came, did their own show and earn a good bonus) and looked at the sweating parent... Him at this moment was never fun: finally, he revealed a long time gnawing away at his secret - how in this very small size of the domestic box each time so comfortably fits your own dad? Moreover, managed simultaneously to sit at home in the armchair and foaming at the mouth to comment on what is happening on the screen! That little George has faced many sleepless nights... And now his father's Scam brilliantly uncovered. He rejoiced triumphantly and children from overstimulation almost snatched the edge of the curtain, when the lead voice from outside called to him: "Let me tell you just a moment, young man! " In the air hung pause. The kid slowly turned and grinned ingratiatingly in sinless smile: "Yes, sir..." the Angry uncle was a member of a Studio that has been a good hour intently watched the prelude in a large veil... George was ready to moral lynching, but for heroic obedience to be punished for almost spoiled Treasury stock daredevil suddenly received a tempting offer. And the coming week's TV Christmas meetings acted as the great fairy gnome. With glitter! And then he suddenly offered to sing: "you Can? " "I can," replied lucky and argued confidence by the presence of aunt rosemary, which has adopted a crazy passion for singing.
He was still quite small, but the reason to say so, no doubt, was his aunt - the controversial and eccentric fashionable thing - back in the sixties had indisputable authority, which was firmly based on the weight of fifteen gold discs and participation in the election campaign of Bobby Kennedy. "I often heard at the table was done talking about her and Bobby remembered Clooney. - Then I realized that emotion that Bobby?. Then, when Los Angeles was an attempt on presidential candidate, understood. Troubled times have come... In one evening senior Clooney returned home well after midnight, drunk and with missing buttons on the shirt. He sat down in his favorite chair and sighed heavily and handed: "I was given a salary for the week and sent to hell! " Two weeks later they were left with no money and no means of livelihood. In the morning, the memories of the actor, however, his father drove to the front door of the van, scored his house belongings, and they without any peculiar situation speeches moved out of a luxurious mansion in ordinary city apartment, after some time in the trailer. Ended their wanderings on a small farm in the suburbs.
Nick sat on the eyes: increasingly over dinner he reviled modern TV and his corrupt bosses, less from his mouth flew phrase that, they say, everything will be OK, things will be okay. Yes, and few believed it. "What are you supposed to pay the bills next week? "inquiry looked into the eyes of the head of the family wife. George, looking at his weakened spirit of the father, unexpectedly cooled to display art and plunged into a new hobby - baseball. Arithmetic on this account, in his own assurances, was simple: baseball - money and fame. Add natural charm. But he was not lucky: sixteen years after attempts to break into the local baseball team the "Cincinnati Reds" inexperienced and malotoksicnam player simply pointed at the door. To go nowhere, and the young man, tired of the oppressive uncertainty, goes to College. However learning it can be called only with great reserve. "Three years later I still dangled in the first year. The only defining value was drinking Yes girls reluctantly admitted the actor. Then I realized that if you don't submit, you will finally become alcoholics! " And George, making no objection statement for a family dinner, went on summer vacation to the aunt rosemary in the city intoxicating prospects Los Angeles.
Sexy neighbor
My aunt lived in a beautiful two-storey mansion is under be the star of the highest caliber. It was such. Then, on the threshold, the twenty-prodigital life suddenly wet with excitement and very hesitantly pressed the call. It took some time, but behind the door, nothing happened. No movement. The boy, not realizing why, pushed the door. She jerked and without a single noise went inside. He entered. "Lord, George, what are you doing here? " - in unison screamed in the lobby, rosemary and her son Miguel. Impressionable George was seriously scared: I rushed for the exit like a thief, but immediately recovered. It later emerged that the call since morning was faulty and the owners were waiting for the repairman. And after a quarter of an hour they were all sat together in the living room and was eating baked aunt incredible chocolate biscuits. "Aunt rosemary, I need your advice, " he began, somewhat excitedly Clooney. - I need advice-t-t". He paused and fell silent. Then the woman resolutely stood up from the table and approached him: "don't worry, my boy, you're not going to be shot". And he habitually smiled: "I desperately need to get into the world of cinema". The aunt laughed in response. George also. The current ridiculous situation skillfully lit Miguel, promising unexpectedly arrived captor Hollywood entirely to assist in his quest. A bit of who starred in the movie and well versed in the secret life of the citadel cinema, Miguel has really helped, and Clooney soon found himself in the coveted list of participants listening to. Then another and another... But he is desperately lucky: for samples with zero efficiency has passed, the summer is gone, autumn and winter came. And soon the conqueror felt that a year has passed, and his blue dream career is still in its infancy. Rosemary by that time, several moved by the mind (in the light experienced by the death of the Kennedy brothers).
She sat tight on antidepressants. In one of the attacks aunt put his nephew out the door. Took a homeless old friend Tom Mathews, who all were in his apartment scarce environment provided other best - small built-in wardrobe. Now Clooney, in a hurry in the morning to listen to the cracking was Packed bed stavshiesya wooden box. "I woke up, hastily washed, put the bed and disappeared behind the door," recalled actor. He had no money, no permanent job, no housing. The only thing that warmed and helped not to break, is unshakable confidence in his genius. Therefore, with auditions he was going to work: digging ditches, to help builders or the movers where you can earn some pennies, and then again to audition. "Imagine a person, even superreplication and charming, atphase shift at the construction site, breaking concrete slabs and dragging all sorts of stuff... " said friend Is. He was afraid to look, he was lost at each listening: wet, sweaty. I calmed him and advised him to learn it is easier to relate to life".
Two hours in the afternoon, another promising test, George looks at the material and readings selects the scene as props needed a bed. The head of the acting Department John Crosby left the business and went into the Studio to ask: how are you going to get around this guy in such a sticky situation? "Forward-re-d! "suddenly shouted the applicant, and four pre-warned people brought him in bed! "Crosby tore jaw - laughing Clooney. - Where in the office took this bed? But it was our secret. I will say one thing: the same day I signed a contract with ABC company".
However, the first long-awaited and painfully vynesennyi contract does not promise a Central role, and secondary, as it turned out, too: the channel used it in small episodes. George portrayed sexual neighbor main characters of the series "the Facts of life", was satisfied with the way the chef of the heroine in the show "Roseanne", played the role of handyman in the series "Baby talk", where the producer, by the way, a certain Mr. Weinberger, accused him of failure to subordination and swore feet this bastard will not be on TV. Not-to-GDS!
The defendant in the evening returned home in poor condition, and the next morning it was completely down with the temperature and also earned a stomach ulcer. "It seemed that the end of my career, " he says actor - and a few days later they called me to the test in the project "reservoir dogs". I was like La Sonnambula, I see no one wanted, not what to play. When we met again with Tarantino, he said, "you Know, I then decided that you're the worst actor on the planet".
Category "B"
Their second meeting took place years later, and a suggestion that it came at this time personally from Tarantino. He and his team were in a hurry. Slaughter rate was preparing to work on criminal opus called "From dusk till dawn", where Quentin was supposed to play the main villain. No matter how he tried, he could not find him a couple: required odious and outwardly seductive bad boy. Was the second month enhanced searches. Suddenly in the midst of working time Tarantino turned to the supervisor and said, "Remember there is one... You seem here for special orders? Now you much, much osobennie does not happen, is urgently find me the phone agent Clooney! "
He behaved arrogantly, but he was good-bye. Always. Tarantino mid nineties was an incarnation of the leader of the world's directing. Clooney - hunted puppy, seduced by Hollywood, which was barely enough to bespolatnoe existence. Which warmed hope. George came back from the listening and not in the best mood poured a bowl of oatmeal with fresh, slightly warmed milk. Part of the package spilled past the bowls, and the food somehow seemed tasteless. Even otherwise... He nearly threw the contents into the side, but development has slowed down a phone call. It was Crosby. "George, you are the blood supply," he chuckled into the phone. "What-what? However, don't care. To business! " He was in a hurry: years coolly took his. While the movie "reservoir dogs", in which he was not destined to be filmed, produced the effect of a nuclear bomb and was the most fashionable opus Hollywood projects, in which it is increasingly delayed, was one saignee" another. Most of these were the films of the so-called "B" category: served to the public solely on video (bypassing the distribution) and by some evil coincidence began with a promising word "return". "The return of the incredible horror", "the Return of tomatoes-killers".
Luck is not too spoiled novice actor. In early 1991 Clooney got to the final screen in the film "Thelma and Louise", but the role eventually escaped to a little-known (at that time! ), but a very handsome hunk brad pitt. Its like a wallflower, and was thrown from one failed project to another.
"Ambulance"
And here in ' 94 brought the script once, it would seem, the base of opus about doctors, hospitals and patients. "I already had a similar experience, so I had very thoroughly think before I said "Yes," frankly admitted in an interview George. The next morning after the premiere of the series on TV Clooney woke up famous. "First aid" in one moment broke all ratings and for a long time headed the list of the most popular serials of America. Once, over a glass of whiskey or even second Clooney said: "as soon As the Ambulance broke the Bank, I started to offer to play: let's say, George, went. But all they needed was my name. I decided that if they agree on a movie, then only that will be something special".
...Tarantino woke Clooney in the second hour of the night and without the proper formalities, the course offered a part in the movie "From dusk till dawn": "George, how about a Thriller with Harvey Cautelam and Juliette Lewis? " Sleepy and not yet fully evaluated the situation and could only incoherently that drain into the phone: "which one of them I have to kill?! " Since 1996, the actor is in a frantic work schedule. Drawing on wear, hurrying to compensate for idle. Removed a lot and quickly. He is sent to Slovakia to play a major role in the movie "the Peacemaker". Shooting was difficult, but productive. America established the George in the status of movie stars and the sexiest man in the world. Now he had at least ten million for the project. Worked with the most highly paid actors and was very selective in the following sentences: "the Thin red line", "the Perfect storm", "11 oceans", "Solaris". During filming, the last in 2002 dead aunt rosemary. "She died in that day, when we did the only funny moment in the whole movie. Whatever happens between us, she was a part of my life. I have always admired the feeling of each other rosemary and her constant companion Dante. Just imagine: together for over 30 years! And here we are shooting movies of all-conquering love, and she leaves us. Unfortunately, this is the life. All go through it: the older you get, the more names you have to remove from the phone book".
"Well done, old man! "
World billboards ago saw the contents of the notebook actor as the object of increased interest since the mid nineties increasingly heated sleepy readers of the morning headlines: "Another passion heartthrob George Clooney". It is not surprising: he does everything in life were not just so... in Addition to skirts! Still living in the closet of his friend, Lovelace known him a stunt managed to carry out there ladies and just five minutes to shake candidates from their own linen. For a short period of time in the narrow arches of the Cabinet visited more than a dozen beauties, one replaced the other. And only Waist to Balsam managed to stay in the hot embrace of actor. She and her friend were in the same nightclub that George friend. Taking pretty breast, Clooney went to wander throughout the night establishments in search of a stripper: "Show me one that can do more than pats language! " However, came across two cheerful friends, and after a moment Waistline with companiesa were treated to light refreshments and raised a toast in honor such a pleasant acquaintance. About an hour the night George went to see Balsam in your own apartment appeared closer to the morning. They were married in 1989, but soon realized how different personalities were: her husband was always gone on the shooting, his wife was sitting at home and only have time to count the endless television messages about ugly Hobbies Clooney partners on projects. One day, returning with another protracted kinovea, actor, barely crossed the threshold of the home, got a good slap in the face. He stood and quickly ran his eyes on the mad wife, on her hands, and he frantically wondered, will he have arguments for the court... broke up a pair at the beginning of 1992, after which Clooney made an unequivocal statement: "I Think I will never get married! This marriage for me were very expensive, and family life, as it turned out, not for me! "
Much easier, as it turned out (for the purse and brains! ), make fleeting and insignificant affair. He attributed many fashionable lionesses - Madonna, Michelle Pfeiffer, Cindy Crawford, Kelly Preston (wife of John Travolta), a model of the Yoma Dickite. Few were interested in the objectivity of these statements of the press: the main thing is hype, hype, scandal. "They say about it is fun to read! And I honestly don't understand that I find. Many years wear black shoes, bring a companion for ceremonial events. The woman would already have lynching for it. And I say, well done, old man, this is a classic, and then write about all this thousands of publications! "is ignorant shrugged the actor. And continues to uhlenhaut for skirts.
Very loud public outcry got his passion Rene Zellweger. However, the couple didn't last long. Clooney has offered the heroine of "the diary of Bridget Jones" remain friends... During the filming of "Solaris" Clooney was repeatedly seen in the company of a very cute actress Christa Allen, who starred in his directorial debut "Confessions of a dangerous man," and hastened to publish a sensation, showing pictures taken by the paparazzi during their joint visit to the restaurant in Beverly hills. In the same year, everybody was talking about the waitress Mary Bernard, which the actor allegedly courted and loved. Enough tales: once the sensation seekers spotted him at a table with Nicolette Sheridan, which at that time was a friend of the singer Michael Bolton. Goodbye George gently wrapped his arms around Nikolett, and at this moment he was blinded numerous photoflash. "Oh my God, " said Julianne Margulis, partner Clooney on "Ambulance". - Imagine what he had, even if I was constantly stopped on the street and asked, don't fall in love if I'm in it? Not arguing whether filming? What with him kissing? I have already worked out a standard answer: "You never tried to imagine how fuck with your brother? " Due to the seemingly excessive sexual hunger George has repeatedly found himself in a completely ridiculous situation in October 2002 during his visit to Los Angeles actress Elizabeth Hurley asked his assistant to get the Fax number of the famous Hollywood heartthrob. Well and wrote to him, trying to make his Fax message to more transparent: "True, that you're the sexiest man in the world? With love, Liz XXX". Clooney immediately responded... unfortunately for Hurley, the actor has decided that the message came from another Liz is a perennial and ubiquitous Liz Taylor. He walked over to the desktop, scored her room and felt like a complete idiot.
P.S. "Come, girls, while I love vodka, kebabs, motorcycles and fresh wind, I don't need quiet family evenings and crying child," said one actor and went home to bed, where he was waiting for never claiming the all-consuming love temnochila pig named Max and eleven geese with a good pedigree...
