Favorite actor of legendary American director John Carpenter, and more recently one of Tarantino’s
beloved faces chosen for Death Proof and The Hateful Eight, Kurt Russell by now should be used to in-
terviews, but admits it actually takes him a lot of effort. Despite this, his face lights up with a huge smile

when we mention his passion: wine. Rolled-up shirt sleeves, a pair of jeans and shiny shoes, Russell has
the charm of a man who has something to say, and knows how to say it “I like roles that are unclear.
When you can’t immediately tell whether I’m one of the good guys or the bad guys. I like all the different
sides, the gray areas; they are always more interesting to play.”
