Movie stars are always attracting increased attention to their person. Some of them are especially eccentric. By creating unusual images on the screen, very often the actors are extremely eccentric personalities by nature. Here are some Hollywood stars who have taken unusual behavior to a whole new level!

# 1. Marlon Brando

In Hollywood, he was called the king of actors. They say that his methods of work are very strange, and he himself often seemed incredibly far from reality. Brando took acting too seriously. There are real legends about him: for example, when Marlon fired a pistol in scenarios that he did not like.

In the 1996 film Dr. Moreau's Island, he used a very eccentric technique to memorize his dialogue. His co-star David Thewlis recalls that Brando received his cues through an earpiece that could receive police frequencies and at some point he allegedly uttered the phrase: "There was a robbery at Woolworth."

# 2. Crispin Glover

Glover became famous for his role as George McFly in Back to the Future (1985). The actor had a great creative influence on the role of Skinny Assassin in "Charlie's Angels" (2000). Thanks to Glover, his character fell silent. The creepy detail of human hair pulling was also Crispin's bizarre invention!

The actor asks not to confuse eccentricity with madness. He claims that his psyche is in perfect order, he just has some oddities. True to his character, Crispin often plays incredible eccentrics and makes quirky art-house films. Glover loves collecting medical equipment and volcano models made of paper.

# 3. Tilda Swinton

Tilda Swinton is a great actress! She has starred in everything from art house films to major blockbusters at Marvel Studios. The eccentric characters she has played include Orlando (1992), the androgynous immortal heroine of Virginia Woolf and the creepy minister Mason in Snowpiercer (2013). What is included in the circle of offscreen interests of an unusual star?

Tilda loves contemporary art. Once, having gone to an exhibition in the New York Museum, she not only examined the exhibits, but also went to bed … in a glass box! Of course, it was a performance, but ordinary people won't do that!

As a child, the atmosphere of Roald Dahl reigned in Tilda's house. The actress had a younger brother, whom she said she dreamed of killing. But instead, she once saved his life.

The actress manifests herself in everything as an androgynous personality. She has more than enough oddities! For example, a woman admits that she enjoys filming the eggs that her chicken laid.

# 4. Vincent Price

The legend of classic horror films, when he was not busy dodging daggers in the movies, he also adored knives in life. He was a gourmet not only in creating scary images, but also in life: he and his wife Mary even published cookbooks.

The king of surprises in 1974 fully lived up to his reputation as an eccentric by filming the comedy "Percy's Progress" about a penile transplant!

# 5. Bill Murray

Bill Murray is one of a kind! On the screen, he plays good-natured eccentrics and, as fans say, he is like that in life. Many famous people are reluctant to visit ordinary public places where it is possible to meet so-called ordinary people. Not Murray. He is an active party-goer and appears both at concerts and at home parties.

Murray was seen riding a kid's bike several times as he drove through Wal-Mart offices in Southfield, Michigan in 2006. He was wearing an apparently used fireman's uniform with an oxygen tank. Probably the hero of "Ghostbusters" wanted to bring his cinematic image to life.

The Hollywood actor is known for having no agent, no assistants, and no official representative. If you need to contact him, then this can be done only by a personal number with an answering machine. Once they tried to force him to hire an assistant. Bill responded by hiring … a deaf-mute for this position! Although the actor himself does not even know sign language.

# 6. Tom Cruise

Unlike all the participants in this collection, Tom Cruise wants to seem "absolutely normal". Although even the fact that the actor, being a millionaire, is very fond of starring in blockbusters, casts doubt on this statement. Otherwise, Tom is also a very peculiar personality. In Hollywood, his affiliation with the Scientology sect is already a byword. This is not surprising: after the divorce from Nicole Kidman and the collapse of all subsequent relationships, the Church of Scientology picked up a bride for the actor.

# 7. Nicolas Cage

Nicolas Cage often creates images of strange people on the screen, and sometimes he plays completely nuts. In life, the actor also commits very eccentric acts that make one doubt his sanity. Cage is famous for its huge extravagant spending. The actor loves to buy cosmically expensive and useless things. We would say "mad with fat". This could not but remain without logical consequences: now the actor is experiencing financial difficulties.

# 8. Angelina Jolie

In recent years, the actress has settled down a bit. Now she tries to refrain from extravagant public antics. In the past, descriptions of her endless quirks have been on the front pages of newspapers.

When Angelina was married to Billy Bob Thornton, they wore identical pendants with drops of each other's blood around their necks. Jolie is generally considered a big fan of sadomaso, slightly "shifted" on the blood.

Her most shocking prank is still considered to be her passionate kiss with her brother at the 2000 Academy Awards. And the birth of their first child with Brad in Africa is the height of madness when any of the most advanced clinic in the world is at your service.
