David Gulpilil
David Gulpilil is remembered for starring alongside Paul Hogan in "Crocodile Dundee" as Neville Bell. People were impressed with David, who showed some real talent on set. His career would go on to rise with appearances in films such as "The Proposition" and "Charlie’s Country." Despite his massive talent, David unfortunately had several run-ins with the law. Instances included violent offenses, such as an arrest for domestic violence for breaking his wife’s arm.
While he is not the nicest guy, he continues to wow audiences and is very talented. If you are the kind of person who can separate the actor and his talent from his personal life, then David Gulpilil might just be your guy. If not, then you’re probably hoping that Hollywood stops giving a pass to violent offenders on the basis of talent.
