Like Tom Selleck turning down Indiana Jones

That's another great example. Can you imagine? As great as the first Indy Jones movie was, I can't imagine it succeeding like it did with Ford. And generally, I don't even like Ford very much. But that role was made for him. Best thing he ever did.

Agreed. Not a fan generally, but notice how Ford uses his hands.
I’m a fan of the man’s hands!

Most expressive hands EVER.

Speaking of hands, that iris on your homepage is pretty freaky!

Has he seen Goin’ South? I thought he was hilarious in that movie.

Streep and Eastwood were so mismatched and so different from the characters in the book, I doubt anyone cared if they ended up together or not.

I can't imagine any other actress playing that role better.

Particularly the flashback where she was in Auschwitz employed as Höss's Sekretärin.

Ha! Forgot that was there. I was in the mood to freak people out when I did up my page like that.

I thought Something’s Gotta give was one of the best movies in years because of the cast and the interaction between them. Keaton was incredible and so was Nicholson.

I liked Gere in Breathless, a quirky remake of the original with Jean Paul Belmondo. I also thought he was decent in American Gigolo.

I detest Matt Damon but he was good in the Talented Mr. Ripley but I have to wonder if he really had to act the part. He seemed awfully at ease with that role. Weirdo!

Wasn't that freaky? Never quite saw him the same after that! Damon was sure good in Courage Under Fire. Very skinny - looked completely different.

Wasn’t she amazing? Never better, before or since IMO.

Kilmer will always be “Nick Rivers” in ‘Top Secret.’

No way. He's always and forever Chris Knight from Real Genius.
