Wilson's Heart (2)
Monday 19 May 2008 on FOX
In the aftermath of the bus accident, House struggles with his head injuries and short-term memory loss, and must remember the symptom he saw before one of their own, who was on the bus with House, dies.
He played Daniel Day-Lewis's son in the movie "The Age of Innoncence" in 1993.
(edit)
He is friends with his old co star Ethan Hawke.

Robert's natural hair color is brown.

Robert's Chinese sign is Rooster.

Robert is in the book entitled Conversations In The Wings, edited by Roy Harris which is a book of 13 actors who address questions about technique and preparation for plays.

Robert: I've achieved everything I wanted to do. When I was growing up, I wanted to be Kevin Kline, Sam Waterston. I grew up watching the Public Theater and Shakespeare in the park and Marion Seldes. I mean, I may as well be gay.
(edit)
Robert: (On Wilson and House's relationship) I think they are like a complex, dark version of The Odd Couple's Felix and Oscar. For a guy like House to find the one person in the hospital who gets him, who shares his humor, who can be ironic as he is and is also in a lot pain, it's something everyone needs. But things shifted because of Tritter. The relationship got shaken up. But for me, this is the most fun I've had on the show. To have Hugh on one side and David on the other, that's a pretty nice line to be in.
(edit)
Robert: Two of my favorite movies are The Misfits and All The President's Men. Man, there's a lot of testosterone in those two films. I pick Misfits because you rarely get to hear lines like when Marilyn Monroe asks Gable how they're going to get home and he answers: 'Just head for that big star straight on...It'll take us right home.' And President's Men because of when Hoffman lights up in an elevator and Redford says to him, 'Do you smoke everywhere?'
