“Half Nelson” – Dan Dunne ($25,000)
I’ll bet $25,000 with you that this guy doesn’t need an introduction.
We all are very familiar with the Gosling’s name and fame from Hollywood.
But, similar with the Oprah Winfrey’ case, Ryan was not always household name.
He started his career by being recognized in movies like “Remember the Titans” and “The Notebook”.
His great debut, the grand leap of his career, was the movie “Half Nelson” , where he had the chance to debut as a sole star.
This movie was an independent work and brought an Academy Award nomination to Ryan Gosling, even though he got a paycheck of only $25,000.
