brooke shields,i believe she does mostly tv shows and guest tv appearances lately;and a few indie movies in the late 90s;I liked her in suddenly susan (sitcom), freeway, and black and white;She's played varied indie role that show her different acting ability and those are some good choices;Unlike melissa gilbert which i discussed in the other 80s discussion..

mel gibson,also a great director and producer(braveheart,apocalypto),and a writer too of apocalypto;i just rented apocalypto,i have yet to see it ; and see for myself ,if i like it.

tom cruise,never realized endless love for his first movie,he played billy,did he play a big role or a small part;probably have to watch the movie again since it was so long ago;i remember him in the movie that made him more well known risky business ;also taps (1981),that was a pretty good movie that also starred a fave actor of mine back then, timothy hutton(ordinary people,the falcon and the snowman,turk182 was some of my faves back then)I believe tom cruise is better looking now cause its a more mature handsome look,not those boyish looks of yesterday.Although i find it weird with that quick engagement and marriage to katie holmes.Anyway, cruise had played a variety of roles since his boyish 80s and gotten better through time;among my faves are jerry maguire(ultimate girl power,love story),and minority report

Don't forget the two that are always in the tabloids and have both maybe gone off the deepend a tad bit - Mel Gibson and Tom Cruise... I still like to watch the Mad Max movies sometimes (but they are just a little too sad for me) and I will never forget Tom Cruise and I think it was his first movie, in Endless Love with Brooke Shields....ahhhh. That movie was a little disturbing to me when I first saw it.
