Thread Name: BS: Worst MISCAST ever.
Subject: RE: BS: Worst MISCAST ever.
There was a good Sean Connery movie -- The Hill (is that right, someone will correct me, I am sure) -- early on. He was pretty good in The Man Who Would Be King.

I don't know, Michael Keaton was just so weird and miscast. He wasn't dark at all, just like he had wandered onto the set and found an oversize rubber suit to play in.

Thought of another one. Gary Cooper in "Love in the Afternoon". Way too old. You could tell they had to prop him up for most of the film. All those early Hepburn films, they give her all these aged male stars, it is creepy, like child molesting. Humphrey Bogart in Sabrina. Weird. Hey, moving back to familiar toothaches, George Peppard in "Breakfast at Tiffany's" -- damn, wrong thread again, most cardboard actor thread here I come.

yours, Peter T.
