A brief portrait of the Oscar-winning actor and director, recipient of two Golden Globes, and guest of the 57th Karlovy Vary International Film Festival. Audiences will remember him from Ridley Scott's Gladiator or as Detective Bud White from the iconic thriller L.A. Confidential. On KVIFF.TV, you can see him in Romper Stomper, which first brought Russell greater attention. His portrayal of the violent skinhead Hando earned him an award from the Australian Film Academy.
