John Travolta

“One's own life is not as colorful as a character that's created in a movie because they go through a million colors in a short period of time. In one's own life, it may take four years to go through those colors.” As a child he was attracted to the stage lights, which prompted him to take dance lessons and participate in local plays. At the age of seventeen he dropped out of high school to devote himself completely to acting, moved to Manhattan and in 1972 made his Broadway debut with a role in "Rain". A few years later he entered the film industry with "The Devil's Rain", although the big breakthrough came with "Saturday Night Fever", a film that earned him his first Oscar nomination. Throughout his career he has worked in more than forty films and has won three awards including the Golden Globes and the recognition of the San Sebastian Film Festival. In addition, he has received multiple nominations and the distinguished tacit recognition of popular culture.
