About this page

Welcome to Ryan Gosling Fanpage #45! This is my website dedicated to my favorite actor and first love, Ryan Thomas Gosling. Gosling is a genius in film, starring in a variety of indie films, rom-coms, sci-fi thrillers, and more. I first saw him in Blade Runner: 2049, and it was love at first sight. His expressions of despair, contemplation, quiet sadness, or overwhelming depression all resonated deeply with me. He is a master of conveying these profound emotions without the need for dialogue.

On this website, you'll find my personal ranking of Gosling films (with corresponding webpages for my personal opinions), an overview of Gosling's early life to provide greater context to the reader, a list of his notable films with important information, one of my favorite quotes from Mr. Gosling, and finally, a few images. Make sure to explore thoroughly, as there are plently of secrets here!

Early Life

Ryan Thomas Gosling was born on November 12, 1980 in London, Ontario,[2] the son of Thomas Ray Gosling, a traveling salesman for a paper mill,[3] and Donna, a secretary.[4][5] Both of his parents are of part French Canadian descent, along with some German, English, Scottish, and Irish.[6][7] His parents were Mormons,[8] and Gosling has said that the religion influenced every aspect of their lives.[9] However, he said he "never really could identify with [Mormonism]."[10] Because of his father's work, they "moved around a lot"[3] and Gosling lived in both Cornwall, Ontario[11] and Burlington, Ontario.[12] His parents divorced when he was 13,[13] and he and his older sister Mandi lived with their mother,[4] an experience Gosling has credited with programming him "to think like a girl".[14] Gosling was educated at Gladstone Public School,[15] Cornwall Collegiate and Vocational School and Lester B. Pearson High School.[16] As a child, he watched Dick Tracy and was inspired to become an actor.[17] He "hated" being a child,[9][18] was bullied in elementary school,[19] and had no friends until he was "14 or 15".[20][21] In grade one, having been heavily influenced by the action film First Blood, he took steak knives to school and threw them at other children during recess. This incident led to a suspension.[18] He was unable to read,[22] and was evaluated for attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD), but was not diagnosed with it and, contrary to false reports, never took medication.[23] His mother left her job and home-schooled him for a year.[24] He has said homeschooling gave him "a sense of autonomy that I've never really lost".[9] Gosling performed in front of audiences from an early age, encouraged by his sister being a performer.[25] He and his sister sang together at weddings; he performed with Elvis Perry, his uncle's Elvis Presley tribute act,[26] and was involved with a local ballet company.[27] Performing boosted his self-confidence as it was the only thing for which he received praise.[21] He developed an idiosyncratic accent because, as a child, he thought having a Canadian accent did not sound "tough". He began to model his accent on that of Marlon Brando.[28] He dropped out of high school at age seventeen to focus on his acting career.[29]

Good Ryan Gosling Quote

"All my characters are me. I'm not a good enough actor to become a character. I hear about actors who become the role and I think 'I wonder what that feels like.' Because for me, they're all me."
