Tuesday Talent: Jeremy Davidson

Watching Jeremy Davidson as Chase Moran in the last two episodes of Army Wives can only solidify the dedicated viewer as a fan. He was showcased as the prerequisite army husband: desired, sexy and somewhat inaccessible, much like the object of a fan's obsession. It is even more visceral given that Mr. Davidson has that je ne sais quoi which encouraged BGR Design to set up a web site dedicated to this very fine actor.

Here are snippets from his recent portrayals:

Cat on a Hot Tin Roof (2004)




“As Brick, the former athlete stuck in an alcoholic stupor ever since the death of his best friend, Jeremy Davidson delivers just the right aggressive nonchalance for the role. It was one of Williams' contributions to American culture to require of male actors raw and exposed sensuality, and Davidson's got it. As he stumbles around the stage with his crutch -- Brick has just broken his ankle in a failed attempt to relive past glories -- we believe that even the fogginess of the liquor only adds to Maggie's unquenched sexual desire for him.” Variety

”Jeremy Davidson, blessed with the godlike physique that the role of Brick requires, clearly communicates the deep hurt that lies beneath the character's alcohol-besotted sullenness.”Theatermania

Little Chenier: A Cajun Story …




A mere 31 days after filming wrapped, Hurricane Rita devastated the Louisiana coastline, virtually wiping out the community in which the movie was filmed. Writer/director and Lake Charles native Bethany Ashton Wolf's movie footage is the last look at Little Chenier before it was destroyed, leaving most of its inhabitants homeless.

"It is very important to us that we give something back to the community which opened its arms to us and embraced the cast and crew as their own, even after the tragedy of Hurricane Rita," said Wolf. "We are extremely pleased that a portion of the movie's profits in Louisiana will go to help those affected by the storm."

According to the Austin Texan, "Little Chenier could be the only movie to ever realistically capture the intricate beauty of Cajun life." The film has already won accolades at some of the country's most prestigious film festivals, including nine Best Picture awards.

Little Chenier is the story of a young man who lives a simple life on a houseboat in the Louisiana bayou with his mentally handicapped brother until one is accused of a crime in the small town. The film stars Johnathon Schaech (That Thing You Do), Fred Koehler (Divine Secrets of the Ya-Ya Sisterhood), Tamara Braun (General Hospital), Jeremy Davidson (Windtalkers), Clifton Collins Jr. (Capote, Traffic, Tigerland) and Chris Mulkey (Broken Trails, Twin Peaks).



It must be remembered that he is the writer, producer and director of Tickling Leo starring Eli Wallach soon to be released. He is all that.
