biography
Londoner Tim Roth's father was a journalist and his mother a landscape painter. Initially enrolling in art school with hopes of becoming a sculptor, Roth decided to try acting, instead. His first appearance was in a production of Jean Genet's The Screens. On stage, screen, and television, Roth has made his greatest impression as emotionally troubled villains, including 1984's The Hit, 1992's Reservoir Dogs, and 1994's Pulp Fiction. Roth was more sympathetic, but no less troubled, in his portrayals of Vincent Van Gogh in Vincent and Theo (1990) and Guildenstern in Rosencrantz and Guildenstern Are Dead (1990). In 1995, Roth received a Best Supporting Actor Oscar nomination for Rob Roy.
