Reeves Comes Clean

KEANU REEVES: CLICK TO PLAYEven though years have passed since Keanu Reeve's hey day as a sex symbol, the dreamy actor is still thought of as something of a chick magnet. Rumors involving him and Claire Forlani are quickly dismissed by Keanu, who points out that Claire's "in a relationship". "We're friends" he says.

Another one of his friends is Winona Ryder, who Keanu has plenty of kind words for.  Calling her an artist, Reeves points out that "she's been acting and in show business for over 20 years" and that "she's succeeded in a way... that no young actress has achieved".  In all, Keanu sticks up for the honor and integrity of both Forlani and Ryder with so much sincere chivalry that some women will surely wonder if they have a chance with this consummate gentleman, or if he's another one of Hollywood's confirmed bachelors.  Reeves addresses this as well, admitting that if he had the chance to become a husband and father "it would be great".

Keanu is presently promoting "A Scanner Darkly," and it will be interesting to see if his charm and sex-appeal will come through as an animated character. The Richard Linkletter film is not like most animated films, where the actor is merely a voice attached to a drawn character.  Like Linkletter's 2001 film "Waking Life", this movie utilizes an advanced form of roto-scoping, which means that the actors actually perform the scenes in front of a camera.  Animators then take the footage and carefully replace the photography with dream-like animation.  The result is quite unlike a Disney film, and more like watching real actors perform.  This movie will be test of audience's reaction to such an unusual visual style.

The film is based on a novel by Phillip K. Dick, and won't be the first time Keanu has brought life to that author's work.  The legendary sci-fi novelist also wrote "Johnny Mnemonic" and Reeves played that title character in 1995.

Incorrect. Johnny Mneumonic was based on a story by William Gibson, not PKD.

Keanu brings life to all of the work he is involved in. He is a gifted actor and musician and clearly puts his heart and soul into everything he does.
He will be a wonderful husband and father when that time comes.

Keanu is still an amazing looking man and I'm sure that when hes 65 he'll still be gorgeous. he can't ever lose those eyes of his and that is were his beauty lies.
I just saw the Lake House and I loved it I can't believe critics say he can't act .Obviously they didn't see the scene where he crys over his father's death NOW That was ACTING !... And I'm sure that God or Fate or whom ever has the perfect woman for Keanu he just has to wait for her Patience is a great virtue
I personally don't have any but I've heard it's a great thing to have. And who ever this lucky lucky woman is she better appreciate him and at least give him a massage every night .

Yes Keanu is still totally Hot n' Handsome, but no one has commented on his deep sexy and sensual voice! = I can always hear it when I tune in and think of it!

He certainly puts all he's got into his movies, and becomes that person. He is such a good and honest soul, and by the way I wish I could have another chance at being his reflection, and would gladly make him feel good all over as often as possible (regarding "Mara's post" and massages). Hee hee!

Good vibes & Peace to all!
