Keanu Reeves has made a <tipso reputation>reputation<tipso reputation> as one of the nicest guys in Hollywood - Often giving <tipso thoughtful>thoughtful<tipso thoughtful> gifts to the cast and crew of the movies he has starred in.
One person who can vouch for his <tipso generosity>generosity<tipso generosity> is American actress Sandra Bullock.
The pair starred in 1994 movie Speed and it was the start of an <tipso enduring>enduring<tipso enduring> friendship. Despite being just friends, Reeves hasn't been shy to treat the actress well.
On one occasion, she and Reeves got on to the subject of champagne and truffles and how she'd never had them before.
It was only a <tipso throwaway>throwaway<tipso throwaway> comment by Bullock, but a few days later Reeves turned up on his motorbike with flowers, champagne and truffles and said:
"I just thought you might want to try champagne and truffles, to see what it's like."
Bullock was painting her nails with a friend at the time, but she invited him in, they drank the champagne and she painted his nails too.
He didn't stay for long though, as he had a date to get to.
Bullock said: "When I first met him, I would spend as much time as I could filling a silence, just to feel comfortable.
"And the more I <tipso jibberjabber>jibber-jabbered<tipso jibberjabber> on, the quieter he would get. And I thought, 'I don't understand what's happening! He's looking at me with eyes of confusion. He's quiet. Did I say something to offend him?'
"And then a day or two later, he would arrive with a note or a little package, saying, 'I thought about what you said', and he would have his response.
"How many people do you know like that?"
Looking back, Bullock is glad they never got together - or split up - as she is able to <tipso appreciate>appreciate<tipso appreciate> him as a person.
She explained: "Keanu's a guy who, I feel like, is friends with every woman he's ever dated. I don't think there's anyone who has something horrible to say about him.
"So maybe we could have survived. I don't know. But we didn't have to survive anything. We just get to grow up together on <tipso parallel>parallel<tipso parallel> roads and tip our hats and meet for a dinner and try to work together.
"And the longer time goes on, the more in awe I am of the human being. Would I have been able to say that if he had dumped me and made me angry? Probably not."
