Full Christopher Jones Biography
Christopher Jones was a brief cult star of the late 60s counterculture era and a would-be successor to James Dean, had he wanted it. Born amid impoverished surroundings to a grocery clerk in Jackson, Tennessee in 1961, his artist mother had to be institutionalized when Chris was 4. She died in a mental facility in 1960 and this was always to haunt him.
Little was heard of Chris until decades later when Quentin Tarantino offered him a part in Pulp Fiction (1994). The reclusive, eccentric Jones refused the role, but this was not the case with a lower profile role in Mad Dog Time (1996) a couple of years later. Whether this is a comeback or not has yet to be determined. |
