ARTICLES - CAE

ARTICLE
He's made a big-screen living playing a vast array of violent roles, whether as a gangster, a corrupt policeman or a sadistic army sergeant. So to meet him in the flesh really came as a pleasant surprise. Here is a polite, intelligent young man who, unlike others, hasn't let face go to his head. Not for him the intolerable rudeness and arrogance that celebrity can bring. And despite his reputation for avoiding public scrutiny (which presumably means journalists like myself probing into his private life), he seemed quite happy to sit and answer all my questions. True, he has strong religious convictions and political beliefs,but he doesn't ram them down your throat, and he spoke objectively about the things he feels pasionate about. It all made a refreshing change from interviewing the usual self-centred celebrities who feel our screens, newspapers and magazines, and our interview was the most enjoyable two hours I've spent in ages.
