Bill Pullman mini-bio: In the 1980s, he primarily worked with theatre companies around New York and Los Angeles, California. His first prominent movie role was in the film Ruthless People (which starred Danny DeVito and Bette Midler). Other notable films included the lead in Spaceballs (1987), The Serpent and the Rainbow (opposite Zakes Mokae), While You Were Sleeping (1995), Independence Day (1996), and Lost Highway (1997). Pullman continues to act in both theatre and in movies, independent and big budget. His more recent films have been "The Grudge" and "Scary Movie 4" (the latter ironically heavily spoofing "The Grudge" though Pullmans part spoofed "The Village".) From February 2002 until September 2002, Pullman starred, with Mercedes Ruehl, in Edward Albee's play The Goat, or Who Is Sylvia? on Broadway. The play won several awards: 2002 Tony Award for Best Play; 2002 Drama Desk Award Outstanding New Play; 2003 Pulitzer Prize for Drama. Pullman was nominated, but did not win, the 2002 Drama Desk Award Outstanding Actor in a Play.

I don't like all the movies Bill's been in because I hate horror. The ones I like are Independence Day, While You Were Sleeping, and Casper.
