  Woodrow Wilson - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Thomas Woodrow Wilson was born in Staunton, Virginia in 1856 as the third of four children to Reverend Dr. Joseph Ruggles Wilson (February 28, 1822 Steubenville, Ohio–January 21, 1903 Princeton, New Jersey) and Janet Mary Woodrow (1830, London, England–April 15, 1888 Clarksville, Tennessee).
Wilson came of age in the decades after the American Civil War, when Congress was supreme—"the gist of all policy is decided by the legislature"—and corruption was rampant.
Wilson (born in Virginia and raised in Georgia) was the first president from any state that had joined the Confederate States of America to be elected since 1848 (Zachary Taylor, born in Virginia), and the first from there to take office since 1865 (Andrew Johnson born in North Carolina).

 Luke Wilson - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Wilson was born in Dallas, Texas to Irish American parents.
Wilson's film acting career began with the lead role in the short film Bottle Rocket in 1994, which was co-written by Wilson's older brother Owen and director Wes Anderson.
Wilson filmed back-to-back romantic films opposite Drew Barrymore, Best Men, about a group of friends who pull off a heist on their way to a wedding, and Home Fries (both 1998), about two brothers interested in the same woman for very different reasons.

 Ku Klux Klan Encyclopedia Articles @ LaunchBase.org (Launch Base)   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-08)
Much of the modern Klan's iconography, including the standardized white costume and the burning cross, are imitations of the film, whose imagery was itself based on Dixon's romanticized concept of old Scotland as portrayed in the novels and poetry of Sir Walter Scott rather than on the Reconstruction Klan.
Wilson tried to remain aloof from the controversy, but finally, on April 30, he issued a non-denial denial.
His endorsement of the film greatly enhanced its popularity and influence, and helped Griffith to defend it against legal attack by the NAACP; the film, in turn, was a major factor leading to the creation of the second Klan in the same year.

 BBC News | FILM | Coogan's Manchester party time
But in the film, Coogan has had the chance to recreate all of the era's tragic and comic highs and lows in the role of the man who was the scene's prime mover, Factory Records boss Tony Wilson.
Coogan charts how Wilson, a local TV news reporter, was inspired by a Sex Pistols gig in 1976 and founded Factory with just one contract, written in his own blood, saying that the musicians owned everything and Factory owned nothing.
But Wilson did not mind the truth being embellished, and even adopted the film's version of some events when writing the "novelisation" of his story.

 Owen Wilson
After meeting with Wilson and Anderson, Brooks agreed to produce the film and Bottle Rocket became a full-length feature, winning a Lone Star Film Award for Debut of the Year for Luke, Owen and Anderson.
Wilson and Anderson collaborated again in 1998 with Rushmore, the critically acclaimed comedy about a precocious teenage boy whose grades are terrible even though his school spirit is high.
Next, Wilson co-starred with Jackie Chan in the physical comedy Shanghai Noon (2000), and the movie was such a big hit that it spawned a sequel called Shanghai Knights (2003).

 Silent Film Sources Review
The film features Fairbanks' usual high production values with two full-scale ships, and is well cast with Donald Crisp, unrecognizable behind his Scottish make-up, and Sam de Grasse as a villainous second in command.
The entire film is presented tongue in cheek, as if it were all the imagination of a schoolboy reading "Treasure Island" with illustrations by Howard Pyle.
The Black Pirate was Fairbanks' shortest film in five years, and marked a welcome return to the fast pace of Zorro and his earlier successes.
