I love this picture of him. I really had to post it, compliments of Google. I got more bio information on him! Ooh, he was the starring role in My Best Friend Is a Vampire, and now I have to see that movie! But he really hit fame in his stunning portrayal of Neil Parry in DPS (Dead Poet Society). His acting was GREAT, i have to say, and shortly before discovering House, DPS was, in my opinion, the best thing you could see on a TV screen. It is still probably my favorite movie. If House was a movie, it would be my favorite movie. Did that make sense? Anyway, his character in DPS (Neil Parry) was driven to suicide by his rather imposing father late in the movie, and played really well. He shot himself in the head. Before killing himself, he was a great student of the teacher (Mr. Keating, Robin Williams) and full of life. But directly before the [evil] father was about to put him in military school for years on end, deadening his soul, he committed the above-mentioned suicide. It was terrible. The film’s plot was sort of downhill from there.
