HAPPY BIRTHDAY KEANU REEVES ❤️
Keanu Reeves, born on September 2, 1964, is a Canadian actor, producer, and musician known for his roles in action and sci-fi films like The Matrix and John Wick.
Actor, film director, film producer and musician Keanu Charles Reeves (Keanu Charles Reeves),
Missed the first 20 minutes of the party dedicated to the end of filming of his new movie at one of the clubs in New York.
He waited patiently in the rain to be let in.
No one recognized him.
The club owner said: “I didn't even know Keanu was standing in the rain waiting to get in - he didn't say anything to anyone.”
"He travels by public transport."
"He easily communicates with homeless people on the streets and helps them."
- He was only 60 years old (September 2, 1964)
- He can only eat hot dogs in the park, sitting among normal people.
- After filming one of the "Matrix", he gave all the stuntmen a new motorcycle - in recognition of their skills.
- He gave up most of the salaries of the costume designers and computer scientists who drew the special effects on "The Matrix" - deciding that their share of the film's budget was assessed short.
- He reduced his salary for the movie "The Devil's Advocate" to have enough money to invite Al Pacino.
- Almost at the same time his best friend passed away; His girlfriend lost a child and soon died in a car accident, and his sister suffered from leukemia.
Keanu didn't fail: he donated $5 million to the clinic that treated his sister, refused to be filmed (to be with her), and founded the Leukemia Foundation, donating significant amounts from each fee for the movie.
You may have been born a man, but stay a man..
Keanu Reeves' father is of Hawaiian descent...

DAUGHTERS of Cheyenne Chief American Horse, 1901. American Horse’s family lived in a tepee in the Lame Deer Hills about 100 miles east of Billings, Montana. Historian O.D. Wheeler, accompanied by photographer L.A. Huffman, interviewed Native warriors who had fought at the 1876 Battle of the Little Bighorn.

L.A. Huffman made fantastic captures that avoided the formalism of “stand still and face the camera.” His portraits of Native Americans rank among the finest in history. Many of Huffman’s best captures were of men working on the open range without posing. This was rare, almost unique, among early photographers when bulky cameras required a tripod for support.

Today driving in the snow whitened tree lined streets was beautiful- like this picture

Title ~ “Lakota Enjoying a Toboggan Run on Hampstead Heath, England”, 1925 ~ The word toboggan appears to have derived from roots in the Maliseet/Mi’kmaq language, however, there are references also found relating to Cree and Innu. One thing that is certain, Indigenous ancestors have used this form of transport across Turtle Island. Today, tobogganing is a fun winter activity enjoyed in the snow today by people of all backgrounds.
