harvey keitel - he just keeps getting better

the only way "harvey keitel, the art of darkness" could have been any better is if he had written it himself. too bad mr. fine didn't have more to say about his personal life but maybe that's the way mr. keitel would have wanted it. he is such a gifted versatile actor who only gets better with age, it's only natural to wonder about his personal life. i hope some day he will find the time to write his own biography. he has given many academy award winning performances in his career and i hope some day to see him win one.

Very Enlightening!!!

I was always under the impression that Mr. Keitel was a somewhat "dark" man with a lot of demons(who doesn't have some of those demons to deal with?)He just was lucky enough to find himself an outlet to deal with those facets of his life. It is said that Mr. Keitel will only talk about what he wants to talk about, about his personal life etc., but if you look closely he is telling you a lot about himself through the characters that he protrays. (I thought this about Mr. Keitel before I read the book). Mr. Keitel has a God given talent and he has used it well. To entertain us and to understand himself. And maybe even to help us deal with our own demons. I know he helped me with some of mine. Thank you Mr. Keitel.
