Ben Stiller successful actor in produce and directing his movie, Tropic Thunder. Not only that, he is also a caring father and romantic husband to Christine Taylor, his wife, in Parade Magazine
Ben Stiller is romanctic guy?
“I’m really not that good a person to ask about the romance issue. I mean, you know, I think it just has to be something that feels real and connected to. I don’t think you can be romantic just to be romantic. You know, romance comes out of real feelings for somebody. It’s a very private thing, not something you really want to talk about too much because it’s between you and the person that you’re being romantic with.”
He can not explain about the eomance between he and his wife, but he can explain clearly as an actor playing as Larry in the sequel of Night of the Museum, getting romantic with Amelia Earhart.
“It was different just because my character didn’t have to be amazed by things like dinosaurs coming to life. Instead, I got a chance to connect with Amelia Earhart, played by Amy Adams, which was very nice. But you still face the challenge of being in this fantasy magical world and wondering, ‘What would I do in this situation?’ In reality, I’d go straight to a psychologist who’d think I was having a psychotic break-down.”
A father of Ella Olivia, 7, and Quinlan Dempsey, 3 ½, Ben Stiller not only passed on the funny gene to his children, but also his love to movie.
“Ella came to this movie because she really is a big Amy Adams fan. There are a couple movies she loves and one of them was Enchanted, which I think she saw twice. I guess she got a kick out of seeing me too. But, having been through it, I know it’s always a weird thing to see your parent up there on the screen.”
He is comprehend fully his part being a daddy,
“You do whatever it takes to entertain them and there’s not a lot of self-consciousness going on there. So it would sound pretty ridiculous probably if I recorded it. I do a very bad Grover impression, which she seems to like, but it really is kind of a mixture of Grover, Cookie Monster, Yoda, and some woman.” The 43-year-old actor will stop at nothing to keep his brood smiling and that, he says, has little to do with his career choice. “As a parent you do anything to make your kids laugh,” he explains. “And I don’t think that has to do with being professionally funny. It’s just being a dad.”
Ben Stiller always inspired by the movie he’s played. It feels like Deja vu.
“When we were shooting this time in New York, I took my family to the Museum of Natural History just for fun. And it literally felt sort of real. My wife turned to me and said, ‘This is like the end of the first movie.’ There were more exhibits than I’d ever seen before and everything just seemed very alive. A guard said, ‘This is all because of your movie,’ but I don’t know if that’s true or not. I hope it is.”
A little bit flashback to his childhood, we can see the resemble as he is as a father
“As a young kid, I just always loved movies. When my parents would be working on film, I’d like to go and see what they were doing. I remember watching my dad in the original The Taking of Pelham One Two Three and I had a blast. I loved action movies like Planet of the Apes and Poseidon Adventure. Then, when I wanted to start making movies, my dad got me a Super 8 camera. He really helped me and even did some acting for me. So there I was, a kid directing my dad, the actor.”
In a new interview for the June issue of Parents magazine, the father-of-two explains that while “sleeping late and hanging out with the family” is a perfect plan for the big day, he is also hoping to score the customary gift that will crown him an honorary member of the fatherhood club. “My kids are just getting to the tie age,” Ben laughs.
“That’s when you feel like you’ve actually become a dad — when you get that official Father’s Day tie.”
I know what would be the perfect gift for him, in Father’s Day, photo of Tom Cruise’s running. Especially he had studied about Tom Cruise’s ran in every Mission Impossible, he said “I just wanted to emulate that.”
