HAPPY 67TH BIRTHDAY: Actor, Christoph Waltz, turns 67 today…

Happy 67th birthday to the versatile and immensely talented actor, Christoph Waltz! With a career spanning several decades, Waltz has left quite an impression on the world of cinema. He is renowned for his remarkable ability to bring complex characters to life with precision and depth. To celebrate this special occasion, let`s take a look at some of his best films, where he has consistently showcased his exceptional acting prowess.

Waltz seemed destined for a career in the theatrical arts. His parents were set and costume designers, and some of his grandparents had been actors. He studied at the Max Reinhardt Seminar of the University of Music and Dramatic Art in Vienna and at the Lee Strasberg Theatre and Film Institute in New York City. He made a few appearances in Austrian television movies and a West German TV series in the late 1970s and went on in the succeeding decades to have an astonishingly prolific if low-key career in European film and television; in addition, he regularly performed onstage. By the 1990s Waltz had become a familiar presence on British and Austrian TV crime shows and comedies, with occasional forays onto the big screen. While it was a financially rewarding career, Waltz by his own account found it to be creatively unfulfilling.
