Larry Parks

He made only two more films before retiring permanently. He currently plays bass in a band called becky (http://beckymusic.com) with former Dogstar drummer Rob Mailhouse, guitarist Paulie Kosta and singer Rebecca Lord. Following his admission before the House Un-American Activities Committee, Columbia Pictures dropped him. He began playing bass with the rock band Dogstar, who have now gone "into hibernation". Following his Oscar nomination, he made a few more movies that did little in the box office, until he appeared in the sequel, Jolson Sings Again in 1949, which was another hit. True to his Buddhist teachings, he does not have (by 'Hollywood' standards) many possessions and keeps his life uncluttered. He made several forgettable films untl he won the role of Al Jolson in the 1946 biographical film The Jolson Story, for which he was nominated for an Academy Award for Best Actor. Independent of speculation Keanu is reported to be very generous with his time and money, lending both to a variety of causes. He took a significant amount of the profits from his Matrix series and treated the hard-working special-effects crew to motorcycles, among other things.

Having attended the University of Illinois, Parks played in stock companies for several years before signing a Hollywood contract in 1941. She was buried next to their daughter in the Westwood Village Memorial Park Cemetery in Los Angeles. Born Samuel Lawrence Klausman Parks in Olathe, Kansas, his career was virtually ended when he admitted in 1951 to having been a member of a Communist party cell. In December of 1999, Reeves had a daughter with actress Jennifer Syme. Eva Archer Syme-Reeves was stillborn and in April of 2001, Jennifer Syme was killed in an automobile accident. Larry Parks (December 13, 1914 - April 13, 1975) was an American actor. Friends called his house, congratulating him on a marriage he knew nothing about, which prompted some funny conversations. While they did know each other, this was obviously not the case.

In the mid-1990s it was reported that he and gay CEO David Geffen, of the prolific but sporadic record company Geffen Records and Dreamworks pictures had gotten married. Reeves reprised his starring role from that movie for the sequels, The Matrix Reloaded and The Matrix Revolutions, both box-office hits. Speed, released in 1994, was a tremendous success for Reeves, surpassed in 1999 by the sci-fi hit The Matrix. Despite the fact that his acting has frequently been derided as wooden, Reeves has become a major box-office draw, and several of his films have become extremely popular.

Indeed, and perhaps unfortunately for Reeves, much of his subsequent portrayal in the press has been influenced by his comically airheaded character Ted in that film. Reeves's first popularly successful film was Bill & Ted's Excellent Adventure, in 1989. Reeves gained the notice of the critics in 1986's River's Edge, but his first major film role was in 1986, in the hockey movie Youngblood, starring Rob Lowe. His father is Asian American of Chinese and Hawaiian descent and his mother is English.

Born in Beirut, Lebanon, his first name means "cool breeze over the mountains" in Hawaiian. Although currently working in the United States, Reeves is a Canadian citizen and an avid ice hockey player/fan who was his High School team's MVP.
