Barry Pepper and Michelle discuss “”25th Hour,”” “”The Snow Walker”” and more!!!!!!

You may not know his name, but you’ll certainly recognize his face, Barry Pepper is one of those “”character”” actors who has worked with everyone from Steven Spielberg to Spike Lee to Billy Crystal to Randall Wallace, and has acted alongside Hollywood “”A Listers”” like Will Smith, Mel Gibson, John Travolta, Edward Norton and Vin Diesel. He’s appeared in critical and box office hits like “”Saving Private Ryan,”” “”We Were Soldiers”” and “”Enemy of the State,”” major box office and critical bombs like “”Battlefield Earth”” and “”Knockaround Guys.””

As Barry says, when a major blockbuster film needs a “”southern white boy”” they always end up calling him, the irony is, Barry is actually Canadian, “”Spielberg was actually surprised to find out that I wasn’t a real southerner.”” He is one of Hollywood
