TORONTO - Viggo Mortensen may be a physical, intimidating presence on screen but in person he is more wiry than you expect, and much, much quieter. A serious, philosophical actor, the Manhattan-born Mortensen (he grew up in New York and South America and his father is Danish, so he's multi-lingual) is an exhibited photographer, poet, painter and publisher. If that isn't enough "P" talents for one man, he's also a pianist whose new album is "Time Waits for Everyone."
