Martin Sheen’s Many Movies

640px-Sheen,_Martin_(2008)One of the finest actors in recent decades, on both the big and small screens, Martin Sheen has multiple Emmy (10 nominations, 1 win) and Golden Globe (8 nominations) nominations and awards.

Born Ramon Antonio Gerardo Estevez in Dayton, Ohio, he suffered an injury at birth that left one of his arms inches shorter than the other, and with limited range of motion. Growing up one of ten children in Dayton, Estevez wanted to be an actor, despite opposition from his father. In his early 20s he borrowed money from a Catholic priest and moved to New York City to pursue a career, after deliberately failing the entrance exam for the University of Dayton.

Over his career to date Sheen has narrated or appeared in 115 feature films, narrated or appeared in 41 documentaries and starred or guest starred in 33 television shows. That has not stopped him, however, from his political and social activism. In fact, Sheen is quoted as saying that “While acting is what I do for a living, activism is what I do to stay alive.”

His political activities have caused him to be arrested 66 times (as of 2010) for protesting and acts of civil disobedience, including trespassing at a Nevada nuclear site.

Sheen has shown himself capable of playing presidents, priests and privates, generals, gangsters and grandfathers. Here’s looking forward to many more scripts to come.

Top 7 Vietnam Film Scripts

Vietnam: the war that divided a country, gave birth to hippies, and started a new music revolution. Despite what people may feel about the war, Vietnam was the starting point for a lot of changes. Gone are the days when Americans used to band together during a time of war. Now there are protestors who believe more in themselves than in following orders.

Given this change of perspective, a Vietnam war film is much different than the patriotic war films of the World War 2 era. These films show gritty life, pessimistic outcomes, and psychological damage to the full extent. There are many great films that have been inspired by the anti-war movement and the Vietnam war, but none so much as the ones listed here.

By reading these scripts, a person will learn how to write a war script that brings out the psychological harm, personal struggles and indecision that was prevalent during the Vietnam war.
