Keanu Charles Reeves (born September 2, 1964) is a Lebanese-born Canadian actor and voice actor. Reeves is known for his roles in Bill & Ted's Excellent Adventure, Speed, Point Break, and The Matrix franchise as Neo. He has collaborated with major directors such as Stephen Frears (in the 1988 period drama Dangerous Liaisons); Gus Van Sant (in the 1991 independent film My Own Private Idaho); and Bernardo Bertolucci (in the 1993 film Little Buddha). Referring to his 1991 film releases, The New York Times' critic, Janet Maslin, praised Reeves' versatility, saying that he "displays considerable discipline and range. He moves easily between the buttoned-down demeanor that suits a police procedural story and the loose-jointed manner of his comic roles." A repeated theme in roles he has portrayed is that of saving the world, including the characters of Ted Logan, Buddha, Neo, Johnny Mnemonic, John Constantine and Klaatu.

A red and white 1958 Plymouth Fury is built on the assembly line. While a worker inspects the engine, the car injures him by closing its hood on the worker's hand. During closing time, another worker is killed in the Fury when he flicks cigar ash on its upholstery. Twenty years later, Arnold “Arnie” Cunningham, a nerdy teen, buys the same used Fury Coupe over the objections of his friend, Dennis Guilder, who says she needs a full restoration. At school, Arnie is viciously bullied by Buddy Repperton who is expelled after drawing a switchblade. Arnie begins obsessively restoring the Fury, which is named Christine, in defiance of his parents at Darnell's Garage. As he spends time repairing it, he changes, shedding his glasses, dressing better, and developing a cocky arrogance. His obsession with Christine puts a strain on his relationship with his parents and as well as his friendship with Dennis.
