Elisha Cook was certainly one of the most successful actors in Hollywood, in the history OF Hollywood. One hundred percent hands-down, guarandamn-teed. If you are unaware of that truth, then you are talking out your patoot on the subject of success in Hollywood.

Name me a Hollywood movie that Elisha Cook had a lead role in, and carried? You cannot. Yet the plain reality is that he was one of the "most successful" guys in Hollywood, plain and simple.

As for whether or not Franco has "carried" a lead role, it depends on whether you rely on the opinion of critics, or the opinion of yourself after you've actually SEEN a few of the movies staring the guy you're talking about.

Your pigheadedness is showing, circle.

So you acknowledge you believe you can be one of the “most successful” actors in the industry without ever having had the lead role in a successful movie and can’t carry a movie. Pretty low bar for “most successful”.

Apparently between movies Elisha Cook lived in a cabin up in the Sierra Nevada, fly fishing. When they wanted him, they'd send someone up to find him, he'd come down to do the movie, then head back for the mountains.

Wait wait wait:

I thought we were discussing Elisha Cuthbert.

Because I used to be madly in love with her, before I found out Derek Jeter gave her herpes.
