After Dinner Speakers: Willem Dafoe, Julio Jr Iglesias, Tom Jones

Willem Dafoe started in the movies in the 1980s after a background in experimental theater. He played mostly weirdos and bad guys until his Oscar-nominated role in Oliver Stone's Platoon (1986) made him a star. Instead of going the leading man route, Dafoe has shown tremendous range in a variety of roles: he played Jesus in Martin Scorsese's The Last Tempation of Christ (1988), a very gnarly bad guy in David Lynch's Wild at Heart (1990, starring Nicolas Cage), a troubled son and brother in Affliction (1998, with Nick Nolte) and a creepy, bloodsucking actor in Shadow of the Vampire (2000). In 2002 he appeared as the Green Goblin in the movie Spider-Man.
