He would be more famous if Dustin Hoffman kept his damned mouth shut.

But I know what you mean.

What happen with Dustin Hoffman?

 

[Majik1387]

He told Charlie something along the lines of "Get out of this business while you still can." I'm sure it was for good intentions though.
It was on that E! Child Star show and they interviewed him and he said that.

He turned down the role of John Connor in T2 after that.

Yeah...I was watching that the other day and I was like..."Damn...this is one of the biggest named cast of actors for a movie I've ever seen."

Like...everyone one of them is a known star. Not all back then...but now. It's a great western too. One of my favs.

I don't know about that. Melissa Joan Hart, Jerry O'connell, Jenna Elfman....and Jennifer Love were all pretty big names already when that movie came out. All of them were in long running hit TV shows. And Jerry has been famous since he was a fat little kid in Stand by me.


THAT'S it... STAND BY ME. that's one of the movies I'd put on this list.

Well, Heston was a huge and veteran star when he was on tombstone. The others were unknowed, except perhaps, Terry O'Quinn who was a knowed supporting actor.

well i didn't realize it was Charlton Heston till after I saw the movie and Terry O'Quinn wasn't as famous as he is now thanks to the success of "Lost"

Kind of a variation on this thread... but I think it still applies.

Went to NYC in 1991 and saw "Streetcar Named Desire" on Broadway with Alec Baldwin, Jessica Lange and Amy Madigan. I knew who they were at the time, but just three months ago I found the Playbill from that play and read that James Gandolfini was also in it. So now I can add him to my list of actors I've seen in person.
