ANTI-TRUST Never Underestimate Radical Vision Insight Milo Hoffman (Ryan Phillippe) and his friend Teddy (Yee Jee Tso) have plans to take the world by storm using a new software programme. That is until software magnate Gary Winston (Tim Robbins), looking a lot like another well known magnate, gets Milo to join his Portland-based company, NURV. Milo arrives in Portland with his girlfriend (Claire Forlani) to start a new life complete with a comp[any house and car. Milo is soon hard at work on Winston's masterplan looking for the missing links for a software programme that will link all the worlds communications devices together. But things are not what they appear and there are sinister forces within the organization. When Teddy is murdered he joins forces with fellow programmer, Lisa (Rachael Leigh Cook)to tell the world of Winston's reprehensible practices and expose them on every form of media at the same time. The question is, who can he really trust? Star Bytes

Born Timothy Francis Robbins on the 16th of October 1958 in West Covina, California, USA. By time he was 12 years old, Robbins was already a member of the "Theatre for the New City", an avant-garde acting troupe. Robbins studied drama at UCLA where he graduated with honors in 1981. That same year [1981], he formed the Actors' Gang, an ensemble that expressed radical political observations through the European avant-garde form of theater. He started film work in tv- movies in 1983 hitting the big time in 1988 with his portrayal of the dimwitted fastball pitcher "Nuke" Laloosh in "Bull Durham." Unfortunately "Bull Durham" was followed by two comedy flops. Tapeheads was the first in 1989 followed by Erik the Viking in the same year. He did however get strong reviews for his roles in Miss Firecracker (1989), Cadillac Man (1990), and Jacob's Ladder (1990). Robbins really came into came to the forefront though with two films in 1992 the first in which he played

an unscrupulous studio executive Griffin Mill in the Robert Altman [Mash] comedy The Player. His efforts were rewarded with the Best Actor Award at the Cannes Film Festival. Then came "Bob Roberts" in the same year. Robbins wrote, directed and starred as a manipulative, ultraconservative, folk-singing senatorial candidate. [Robbins and his brother wrote the songs for the film]. He reunited with Altman for Short Cuts (1993) and Ready to Wear/Prąt-ź-Porter (1994), and was the star of that great prison drama "The Shawshank Redemption"(1994). Tall [6 foot 5 inches] with that baby-faced look, he has the ability to play the naive and obtuse ("Cadillac Man" and "The Hudsucker Proxy"), or the slick and shrewd ("The Player", "Bob Roberts" "Anti-Trust"). Robbins partner is Susan Sarandon with whom he has two children. He and Susan met in 1988 during the filming of "Bull Durham.".
