Oh Keanu, how do I compare thee to a Summer's day?
Keanu Reeves: without doubt, the sexiest young male actor on screen today. However, from the air-guitar-wielding dude in the two, the impressionable young nobleman in, Keanu has asked as many questions as he's answered.
However, he seems to have escaped the fate of the 'brat pack' of the early '80s -- Charlie Sheen, Kiefer Sutherland, Rob Lowe and Emilio Estevez -- who had bright starts but ended up in dodgy films and straight-to-video no-hopers. Reeves has already gone further: actors say that the three most desirable directors to work with are Bertolucci, Scorsese and Coppola; Reeves has already done two of them.
The film, reportedly, will look spectacular. Filmed in Kathmandu and Seattle, it's being made by the same team that produced Bertolucci's visually amazing Chinese dynasty fable. This is Buddhism for the mass market. But for Reeves, Siddhartha has been more than just another role."He was a great spiritual, intellectual, social redeemer, a radical," he says with the respectful awe of a novice."He became a liberator within his lifetime. People took up his practices, his ways.
The first shot you did for the film was the scene of Siddhartha's enlightenment. How did you prepare for that? You and I know, I fucking love feasting! Feasting is one of the great joys of life! But in the past couple of weeks we've been doing the mortification scene, so l fasted; I had an orange and ten litres of water a day, it's crazy, things are revealed to you, that's one of the kicks! Siddhartha was this man who was seeking release from old age, suffering and death. He was conquering his body, he was conquering his desires, his cravings, he was testing himself.
