Arnold Alois Schwarzenegger (/ˈʃwɔːrtsənˌɛɡər/; German: [ˈaɐ̯nɔlt ˈalɔʏs ˈʃvaɐ̯tsn̩ˌɛɡɐ]; born July 30, 1947) is an Austrian-American actor, filmmaker, businessman, investor, author, philanthropist, activist, former professional bodybuilder and politician. He served two terms as the 38th Governor of California from 2003 until 2011.
Schwarzenegger began weight training at the age of 15. He won the Mr. Universe title at age 20 and went on to win the Mr. Olympia contest seven times. Schwarzenegger has remained a prominent presence in bodybuilding and has written many books and articles on the sport. He is widely considered to be among the greatest bodybuilders of all times as well as its biggest icon. Schwarzenegger gained worldwide fame as a Hollywood action film icon. His breakthrough film was the sword-and-sorcery epic Conan the Barbarian in 1982, which was a box-office hit and resulted in a sequel. In 1984, he appeared in James Cameron's science-fiction thriller film The Terminator, which was a massive critical and box-office success. Schwarzenegger subsequently reprised the Terminator character in the franchise's later installments in 1991, 2003, and 2015. He appeared in a number of successful films, such as Commando (1985), The Running Man (1987), Predator (1987), Twins (1988), Total Recall (1990), Kindergarten Cop (1990) and True Lies (1994). He was nicknamed the "Austrian Oak" in his bodybuilding days, "Arnie" during his acting career, and "The Governator" (a portmanteau of "Governor" and "The Terminator", one of his best-known movie roles).
Acclaimed cinematographer Jenna Rosher makes her directorial debut by capturing the bond between 75-year-old Eddie Belasco and his 98-year-old "Ma," Josephine, by crafting a hilarious and touching portrait of growing old while staying young.

adjusted and quiet
He's truly such a lonely boy,
His brain gets in the way most of time
And lately, all Junior wants is to go to sleep
And lately, he says the strangest things
...and lately
Junior likes to sleep
He sleeps all time
But it's not because he's lazy, just preoccupied
And A.M. Saturday
Never comes soon enough
He sits and watched two inches from the T.V.
Just like he was in love
He's got the scars suburbans do
The calloused thumb of ninendo youth, but now
There's something growing in his mind,
The power cosmic, fighting time at last
And lately, all Junior wants is to go to sleep
And lately, he says the strangest things
...and lately
Junior likes to sleep
He sleeps all time
But it's not because he's lazy, just preoccupied
And A.M. Saturday
Never comes soon enough
He sits and watched two inches from the T.V.
Just like he was in love
Just like he was in love
Just like he was in love
