MATT DILLON

DATE OF BIRTH: 18th February 1964
KEY FACTS: Matt Dillon, a multi-talented actor, is considered one of the most underrated actors of our time.  Born and raised in New Rochelle, New York,  Matt is the second-eldest in a large Roman Catholic family.  He boasts four brothers and one sister. Dillon attended Hommocks Junior High until his junior year.  He was discovered in the halls of the school, offered a screen test and thus began his acting career. For his first role, Dillon was cast as Richie, a tough street-wise teen hoodlum, in the 1979 youth in crisis film, "Over the Edge".  Dillon became an immediate teen idol after his debut film. His acting was becoming more refined and his characterizations more believable.  In 1989 Dillon was cast as a drug-addicated loser going nowhere in the Gus Van Sant film "Drugstore Cowboy".  Dillon won critical acclaim for his portrayal of 'Bob' and was recognized as a serious actor.  Dillon's significant other is Cameron Diaz. I think Matt has got sexier as he has got older, but there are also a few of his younger pics here for all you eighties fans!
