Born in Austria in 1947, the actor made a career in bodybuilding
There are phrases that have become emblematic in the history of cinema. The cinephile knows this by heart. Casablanca, by Michael Curtiz, 1942. “Play it again, Sam.” Even today, 80 years later, it is still debated whether the sentence is actually said, and by whom? Rick / Humphrey Bogart, Ilsa / Ingrid Bergman? Nooooo – the phrase is from One night in Casablancain Archie Mayowith Marx brotherssince 1946. Twilight of the Gods / Sunset Boulevard, 1950. Everyone knows who says it: Norma Desmond / Gloria Swanson. “First floor ready, Mr. De Mille.” And Billy Wilder, again. Sister la Douce, 1963. Mustache / Lou Jacobi keeps repeating – “… But that’s another story!” To these phrases it is precious to add “Hasta la Vista, Baby!” Arnold Schwarzenegger, The terminator / The terminatorby James Cameron, 1984.
Arnold Alois Schwarzenegger – how many of his fans know he has that middle name? – he was 37 when he played the role that marked him, more than any other. Born in Austria in 1947, he made a career in bodybuilding. at 20 years old won the Mr. America and then he won seven times – seven! – the competition of Mr. Olympia. It was the passport that carried him Hollywood to interpret Conan the Barbarianin John Milius’ 1982 feature film of the same name, based on the comics by Robert E. Howard. The rest is history. Just like Terminator he has made three other films … Terminator 2 – The Last Judgment, Terminator 3 – Rise of the machines, Terminator 5 – Dark Destiny. n. 4has been replaced by Christian Bale.
After conan – and the terminator – Schwarzenegger has become one of Hollywood’s most sought after action stars. Done command to kill, predator, red hell, The future Avenger, The ultimate action hero, True lies And End of days. the last hero hitchhiked on Cecília’s syndrome, from the classic Woody Allen The purple rose of Cairo, and the boy who was awarded the magic ticket entered the screen to experience challenging adventures alongside Schwarzenegger.
As for End of days, was tailored to explore the paranoia triggered by the fear of the “big insect” at the turn of the millennium. Wanting to parody his own image as an action hero, he modified the comedies- Twinsby Ivan Reitman, so absurd that his brother was Danny DeVito, A policeman in kindergarten And Junior. In this, a masked remake of A man in an interesting statein Jacques Demywith Marcello Mastroianni, got pregnant. Married with Maria Shriver, of the Kennedy clan, no one was surprised when Schwarzenegger turned to politics. He was governor of California on a provisional term in 2003 and was re-elected for another full term in 2006.
In The rebellion of the machinesthe reporter for Estadio it was there at the junket. The Terminator stroked the vacant chair of the president of the United States. Did the Austrian immigrant dream of the place? if dreamed,
Schwarzenegger gave up and went back to acting, also alongside Rodrigo Santoro The ultimate challenge. His political career didn’t go very far. In the late 1990s, he admitted having had a child with a female worker. It was a long process, but Maria and he got divorced last year. Although he was a licensed Republican, he was against that of the president Donald Trump. When Trump opposed the Covid vaccine, calling for individual freedom, Schwarzenegger created one of his famous phrases. “Fuck freedom.” Common sense must prevail.
Congratulations, Arnold!
And what is the reason why we remember all this? Arnold turns 75 this Saturday, 30. The date is remembered by the channel Star +which has in its stream the following films of the star – The predator, Junior, The ultimate challenge, End of days, Sabotage, Twins, Conan the Barbarian, A policeman in kindergarten. In the canal A&Eit will be possible to (re) see The Terminator and the rebellion of the machines. Since we started the text with emblematic phrases, including one from Schwarzenegger as the Terminator, why not another?
Legend has it that it was Schwarzenegger’s only fight with director Cameron on the set of Terminator. Schwarzenegger has put his foot down. I didn’t mean the phrase – even emblematic – “I’ll be back“, I’ll be back. The star argued that, like a robot, she should have said” I’ll be back. “Cameron didn’t even want to know -” I don’t meddle in your acting, so don’t interfere in my writing. It will be ‘I’ll be back’, and that’s it. “The phrase, as the director wanted, contributed to the aura of the film and the character of Schwarzy. So much so that, this Saturday, he is back as the indestructible Terminator.
