With a 6-ft. 4-in. frame and a face that is memorably poetic in its asymmetry, Neeson, 44, has always possessed movie-star aura. But it took Hollywood nearly a decade to figure out how to capture it. By the time Neeson landed the role of Oskar Schindler in Steven Spielberg's monumental Holocaust elegy, the Irish actor had already appeared in 23 mostly unheralded films.
