In Four Rooms, Quentin Tarantino starred and directed a segment and asked his friend Bruce Willis to appear uncredited.

While Willis does not appear in Tarantino's portion of the Grindhouse double-feature, [Death Proof](https://collider.com/tag/death-proof/), Tarantino did produce the double-feature. The last official collaboration between Willis and Tarantino was the 2007 double-feature combo movie, [Grindhouse](https://collider.com/tag/grindhouse/), their combined [ode to low-budget grindhouse cinema](http://collider.com/grindhouse-15-years-later-death-proof-planet-terror/).

Chester is the main center of attention in the segment as he rants and raves to Ted. Apparently, Willis wanted to portray the role of Vincent Vega, [but Tarantino had already promised that role to John Travolta](http://collider.com/john-travolta-pulp-fiction/). There are quite a few memorable appearances by notable talents throughout Four Rooms, such as [Madonna](https://collider.com/tag/madonna/) in "The Secret Ingredient" and [Antonio Banderas](https://collider.com/tag/antonio-banderas/) in "The Misbehavors," but Bruce Willis was probably the biggest star to appear in the film.

Last year, the family of Bruce Willis announced he'd been diagnosed with aphasia, which is the loss of the ability to understand or express language.

Roubleau said intensive speech therapy can help someone with the language or aphasia variant retain language for a longer amount of time. "It also affects the temporal lobes. "So, you’ll see less brain volume on the sides where the temporal lobes are and on the front where the frontal lobes are." Roubleau explained about the progression of FTD. "You can imagine, if someone says something to you, asks you a question, a person with aphasia, they can’t receive that information and make sense of it," he said. "If you look at a brain, you’ll see space, more space than you should, in the front and on the side," explained Dr.

What's especially tragic for performers like Willis is the loss of the verbal fluency required for delivering one's lines.

Celebrated Hollywood action star Bruce Willis was diagnosed with Frontotemporal dementia (FTD) in February, following his aphasia diagnosis last year.

In this action-comedy, Willis plays Frank Moses, a retired CIA agent who gets drawn back into the spy game. In this sci-fi thriller, Willis plays an older version of Joseph Gordon-Levitt's character, a hitman who must confront his own past and future. In this visually stunning sci-fi epic, Willis plays Korben Dallas, a cab driver who becomes embroiled in a battle to save the universe from an ancient evil. In this sci-fi classic, Willis plays James Cole, a time traveler from a dystopian future who is sent back in time to prevent a deadly virus from wiping out humanity. The film is famous for its twist ending, but Willis' performance is what anchors the film emotionally, as he struggles to come to terms with his own troubled past. This is the movie that made Willis a household name.
