Recovering Holbrook to Promote Into the Wild
Into the Wild's much-lauded Hal Holbrook, who is 82, has been sidelined as he fought back a bout of pneumonia at a Houston hospital. Now Holbrook is recovering at his temporary quarters in the Houston area, where his wife Dixie is working on a movie. According to Paramount Vantage, Holbrook plans to return to L.A. in mid-November to make the award season rounds. While Holbrook has a fistful of Emmys, his moving role in Into the Wild as a lonely man who takes wanderer Chris McCandless under his wing could earn him his first Oscar nomination as supporting actor.
Also showing up late after an illness was Peter O'Toole last year, who nonetheless gave Forrest Whitaker some competition in the best actor race.
Here's Variety's Into the Wild review.
Speaking of Into the Wild, writer-director Sean Penn, who has already lost one house to a Malibu fire, this time around lost some Airstream trailers on his property to fire while he was travelling in Europe.
