with out name stars


I disagree, Jim Caviezel and Monica Belluci have been very popular stars for some time now.

They have not been known as "A-list" movie stars. I was referring to people who Hollywood moguls believe can "carry a picture." The Hollywood system has traditionally tried to use a household name star to bring people to the theaters.

I do not disparage their acting skills in the least.

My argument is valid for the very reason their acting is excellent but they are not household names.
