==Career==
=== 1967–1989 ===
[[File:HarveyKeitelNov09.jpg|thumb|upright|Keitel in November 2009]]
Keitel studied under both [[Stella Adler]] and [[Lee Strasberg]] and at the [[HB Studio]],<ref>[https://hbstudio.org/about-hb-studio/alumni/ HB Studio Alumni]</ref> eventually landing roles in some [[Off-Broadway]] productions.<ref name=tca/> During this time, Keitel auditioned for filmmaker [[Martin Scorsese]] and gained a starring role as "J.R.", in Scorsese's first feature film, ''[[Who's That Knocking at My Door]]'' (1967).<ref name=tca/> Since then, Scorsese and Keitel have worked together on several projects.<ref name=tca/> Keitel had the starring role in Scorsese's ''[[Mean Streets]]'', which also proved to be [[Robert De Niro]]'s breakthrough film. Keitel re-teamed with Scorsese for ''[[Alice Doesn't Live Here Anymore]]'' (1974), in which he had a villainous supporting role, and appeared with Robert De Niro again in Scorsese's ''[[Taxi Driver]]'' (1976), playing the role of [[Jodie Foster]]'s character's pimp.<ref name=tca/>

In 1977 and 1978, Keitel starred in the directorial debuts of [[Paul Schrader]] (''[[Blue Collar (film)|Blue Collar]]'', co-starring [[Richard Pryor]] and [[Yaphet Kotto]]), [[Ridley Scott]] (''[[The Duellists]]'', co-starring [[Keith Carradine]]), and [[James Toback]] (''[[Fingers (1978 film)|Fingers]]'', in which Keitel played a street hood with aspirations of being a pianist – a role Toback wrote for Robert De Niro to play). In 1979, he was cast as Captain Willard in [[Francis Ford Coppola]]'s ''[[Apocalypse Now]]'' (1979). Keitel was involved with the first week of principal photography in the Philippines. Coppola was not happy with Keitel's take on Willard, stating that the actor "found it difficult to play him as a passive onlooker".<ref>{{cite book| last=Cowie| first=Peter| title=Coppola: A Biography| url=https://books.google.com/books?id=E7kcAQAAIAAJ&q=keitel| year=1990| publisher=Scribner| location=New York| isbn=978-0-6841-9193-5| page=122}}</ref> After viewing the first week's footage, Coppola replaced Keitel with a casting session favorite, [[Martin Sheen]].

Keitel continued to do work on both stage and screen in the 1980s, often in the [[stereotypical]] role of a [[mobster|thug]]. Keitel played a corrupt police officer in the 1983 thriller ''[[Copkiller]]'' (co-starring musician [[John Lydon]]), before taking a supporting role in the romantic drama ''[[Falling in Love (1984 film)|Falling in Love]]'' (1984), starring [[Robert De Niro]] and [[Meryl Streep]]. Between 1985 and 1988, he was one of the busiest character actors around, appearing in 16 films and telefilms,<ref>{{cite magazine|magazine=[[Variety (magazine)|Variety]]|date=October 5, 1988|page=1|last=Cohn|first=Lawrence|title=Acting Jobs Steadiest Since Studio Era}}</ref> including [[Brian De Palma]]'s mobster comedy ''[[Wise Guys (1986 film)|Wise Guys]]'' (1986), starring [[Danny DeVito]] and [[Joe Piscopo]], and as [[Judas Iscariot|Judas]] in Martin Scorsese's controversial ''[[The Last Temptation of Christ (film)|The Last Temptation of Christ]]'' (1988).

He co-starred with [[Jack Nicholson]] in the ''[[Chinatown (1974 film)|Chinatown]]'' sequel ''[[The Two Jakes]]'' (1990), directed by Nicholson. [[Ridley Scott]] cast Keitel as the sympathetic policeman in ''[[Thelma & Louise]]'' in 1991; that same year, Keitel landed a role in [[Barry Levinson]]'s ''[[Bugsy]],'' for which he received an [[Academy Award for Best Supporting Actor|Academy Award nomination for Best Supporting Actor]]. The following year, Keitel played another mobster in the [[Whoopi Goldberg]]-starring comedy ''[[Sister Act]]'' which was a commercial success at the box office.

Keitel starred in [[Quentin Tarantino]]'s ''[[Reservoir Dogs]]'' (which he co-produced) in 1992,<ref name=tca/> where his performance as "Mr. White" took his career to a different level. Since then, Keitel has chosen his roles with care, seeking to change his image and show a broader acting range.<ref name=tca/> One of those roles was the title character in ''[[Bad Lieutenant]]'', about a self-loathing, drug-addicted police lieutenant trying to redeem himself.<ref name=tca/> He co-starred in the [[Jane Campion]] film ''[[The Piano]]'' in 1993,<ref name=tca/> and played Winston "The Wolf" Wolf in Quentin Tarantino's ''[[Pulp Fiction]]'', an apparent reprise of his Victor the Cleaner character from 1993's [[Point of No Return (1993 film)|''Point of No Return'']]. Keitel starred as a police detective in [[Spike Lee]]'s ''[[Clockers (film)|Clockers]]'' (an adaptation of [[Richard Price]]'s novel, co-produced by Martin Scorsese). In 1996, Keitel had a major role in Quentin Tarantino and [[Robert Rodriguez]]'s film ''[[From Dusk till Dawn]]'', and in 1997, he starred in the crime drama ''[[Cop Land]]'', which also starred [[Sylvester Stallone]], [[Ray Liotta]] and Robert De Niro.
