Did You Know: Thanks, John

Richard Gere practically owes his film career to John Travolta. Travolta turned down the leads for Days of Heaven (1978), American Gigolo (1980), An Officer and a Gentleman (1982), and Chicago (2002) all of which went to Gere. Gere won a Golden Globe award for playing Billy Flynn in Chicago.

Hello? ? ?

Will, I think you should do something on Elisabeth Shue. It would generate more interest.

Well, I'm not too much of a Richard Gere fan....he's an over-actor, just like Nicole Kidman. But Johnny? I have maybe three all time favorite actors and Johnny boy is one of those. Ever since Grease and Saturday Night Fever!!!
