The Oxonian Society presents a discussion with Woody Harrelson.

Woody Harrelson is best known as the midwestern bartender, Woody Boyd, on the television series Cheers, for which he won an Emmy. Harrelson starred with Wesley Snipes in the hilarious comedy White Men Can't Jump. He then appeared in the controversial Indecent Proposal with Demi Moore and Robert Redford. Harrelson then went on to give a stunning performance as Mickey Knox in Oliver Stone’'s Natural Born Killers. He took the film world and press by storm again by starring opposite Courtney Love in The People vs. Larry Flynt. For his performance, he received a nomination for the Academy Award for Best Actor. When Terrence Malick resurfaced on the film scene, he immediately put Harrelson in The Thin Red Line, which was nominated for multiple Academy Awards. Other Harrelson films that were widely received by audiences around the World include North Country, Edtv and Wag the Dog. More recently, he had a fairly long run on the sitcom Will & Grace as Grace's love interest Nathan. Whatever film or television sitcom Harrelson appears, the audience is always guaranteed a provocative performance by an extremely talented and humble person. - The Oxonian Society
