The American Cinematheque is thrilled to welcome actor Gary Oldman in person for a retrospective almost as wide-ranging as he is. With near supernatural acting abilities, one might wonder what the secret is to Gary Oldman’s outrageous success. In fact, the secret is that there is no secret, just a lot of hard work. No matter how many times he plays the villain, Oldman is nothing short of a Hollywood hero, not only for his sheer talent, but for his unwavering dedication to the craft.
