  • Tom Wilkinson ~ 98 Screen Credits
    Tom Wilkinson ~ 98 Screen Credits Popular British character actor Tom (Thomas Geoffrey) Wilkinson was born in Leeds, West Yorkshire to parents Thomas and Marjorie on 5 February 1948. Though active in theatre and television from the mid-'70s and in cinema from the mid-'80s, he did not become familiar to an international audience until 1997, via surprise hit and Best Picture nominee The Full Monty. His perform- ance as Gerald, one of six unemployed men who strip for cash, collected both plaudits and a Best Supporting Actor BAFTA. His involvement in Shakespeare In Love, one of the biggest successes of the following year, helped cement his popularity. In 1986 Wilkinson appeared in TV mini-series First Among Equals as Raymond Gould. Playing alongside him as Louise Fraser was Diana Hardcastle. The couple married in January 1988 and now have two daughters, Alice and Molly. Tom and Diana have appeared in the same production on several occasions since (e.g. Resnick, If Only, A Good Woman, The Kennedys, The Best Exotic Marigold Hotel). For a little more on this, see pages 160 and 164. Wilkinson has twice been nominated for an Academy Award, for Leading Actor in 2002 (In The Bedroom) and for Supporting Actor in 2008 (Michael Clayton). For further biographical information, see page 68. THE SHADOW LINE (TV, 1976) Jointly produced by Thames Television and Polish production company Zespól Filmowy, this respectful adaptation of Joseph Conrad's 1917 novel The Shadow Line, filmed in Burma and Thailand, marks the screen debut of 28 year old Tom Wilkinson, in the third-billed part of Ransome, the ship's cook with a "weak heart".
