Vincent Gallo[1] (born April 11, 1961)[2][3][4][5] is an American actor, filmmaker, and musician. He has won several accolades, including a Volpi Cup for Best Actor, and has been nominated for numerous more, including the Palme d'Or, the Golden Lion, and the Bronze Horse.

Following a childhood working for the local mafia, Gallo began his professional career as a Formula II motorcycle racer. He went on to become a successful painter and musician, working with Jean-Michel Basquiat and Lukas Haas. Gallo later became an actor and starred in films including Arizona Dream (1993), The House of the Spirits (1993), Palookaville (1995), The Funeral (1996), Freeway II: Confessions of a Trickbaby (1999), Trouble Every Day (2001), Stranded (2001), Tetro (2009), Metropia (2009), Essential Killing (2010), and The Legend of Kaspar Hauser (2012).

As a filmmaker, Gallo directed, wrote, and starred in three independent films, Buffalo '66 (1998), The Brown Bunny (2003), and Promises Written in Water (2010). Buffalo '66 received critical acclaim; The Brown Bunny proved divisive and sparked several controversies; and Promises Written in Water received mostly negative reviews, though a minority of critics lauded it. Gallo also served as producer on the Italian film Breath of Life (1990).

Gallo has also directed and starred in numerous short films, including The Agent (2010), and several music videos, such as Going Inside, Cosmopolitan Bloodloss, and 99 Problems. Gallo has released several solo recordings on Warp Records, including the album When. As a model, he has been photographed for several fashion houses and brands including Calvin Klein, H&M, Supreme, Persol, and Yves Saint Laurent.

Gallo's work has gained a cult following,[6][5] especially in Japan.[7] Gallo's acting performances have been widely praised by critics, while his directional work has proven divisive. Fans of Gallo's work have notably included Jean-Luc Godard, John Waters, Werner Herzog, Claire Denis, David Lowery, and Robert Pattinson.
