Despite always wanting to be an actress, nothing prepared Moss for becoming a cultural icon when she landed the career-defining role of Trinity, the cool, leather-clad, sunglasses-wearing heroine from the futuristic sci-fi phenomenon, “The Matrix” (1999). So great was the film’s impact on the cultural zeitgeist that Moss become more unrecognizable withoutsunglasses than with.

While the series did not receive rousing critical acclaim, it generated a good deal of buzz, captured a core youth audience and landed Pope on the pages of many a teen fashion magazine, making her a most recognizable property.
This weekend I had a moment that every father goes through at least once. I happened to be going out to the Mall Of America in search of a new pair of shoes for my son. He was excited for this, and he wanted a pair of shoes just like dad. Hearing him say this made me smile, I dont think anyone in my position would not do the same. On the way to the mall I made a pit stop, and that was at a Starbucks that is close to my house. My son has a new quirk that he does, and that is any time I stop the car he shouts out, "Me too." This means that where ever I am going, he wants to go as well.
