Sinopsis

Talented actor. Charismatic celebrity. Woman magnet. A free thinker and an independent soul. That&rsquo,s the shorthand when it comes to the worldwide perception of Keanu Reeves. But there&rsquo,s more to the real Keanu than pop culture talking points and, in Keanu Reeves&rsquo, Excellent Adventure: An Unauthorized Biography by New York Times bestselling author Marc Shapiro, the star of Speed, John Wick, Point Break and countless big and small films proves to be a lot more contrary and anti-establishment than most Hollywood cookie cutter celebrities.Equal parts biography and character study, Keanu Reeves&rsquo, Excellent Adventure: An Unauthorized Biography is an ink blot/rat in a maze journey as the actor deals with his life and times in straightforward, often philosophical and spiritual manner. He can be shy, self -effacing, an introvert andá somebody who has been a pain in the side of the Hollywood establishment. He&rsquo,s also found time to be an all around good guy as he deals with life&rsquo,s ups and downs. But at the end of the day, Keanu Reeves is nothing less than human.He&rsquo,s dealt with the deaths of those he&rsquo,s loved the most. He makes no bones about the fact that he comes from a dysfunctional upbringing. He&rsquo,s walked away from big-budget studio films in favor of doing Hamlet for peanuts. And, early on, he didn&rsquo,t think twice about starring in the overtly gay-themed way out of the mainstream theater production Wolfboy. He&rsquo,s readily admits to having done drugs and has had his run ins with the law. And along the way his risen to that rarified air of international star.á
