LITTLE KNOWN FACTS

Eve's name is pronounced Ev (French Pronunciation) not {E}ve.

Ewan's Favorite Songs are:
1 Mozart - Horn Concerto No 4 in E flat major
2 Fauré - Agnus Dei Performer: The Union Chorale de la Tour de Peilz, with the Orchestre de la Suisse Romande, conducted by Ernest Ansermet.

6 Paice, Ashton, Lord - I'm Gonna Stop Drinking
7 Jimmy O'Brien on the Uilleann Pipes - Dark Lochnagar
8 The Military Band of The Royal Scots Dragoon Guards - Amazing Grace

Ewan doesn't want pictures of his children taken by the press. He doesn't want anyone to know what they look like so he can protect them and most sites (including my own!) respect this wish. But one particularly well known British magazine continued to publish pictures even after Ewan took the time to write to them and asked them not to use the images.

Ewan has done some form of nudity in almost all of his movies but a few.

Ewan was up for the lead role in "The Beach" but the role was give to Leonardo DeCaprio.

Ewan has shared an on screen kiss with how many of his male co-stars? Three: Serpents Kiss, Velvet Goldmine, and in The Pillow Book (technically a peck on the cheek but it still counts!)

It took 9 months to film Moulin Rouge

One of the voice overs that Ewan did in Moulin Rouge was actually his own poetry that Baz liked so much he insisted on using it in the film.

A body double was used to go down the ladder in Scarlet and Black. They were afraid Ewan would hurt himself.

People are really dying to be in his arms.
