Jorge Sanz, a quite popular spanish actor, played young Conan in "Conan  The Barbarian". A friend of mine told me that in the DVD Commentary track both John Millius and Arnold say that they haven't heard from him ever since. LOL He is one of the most recognizable spanish actors ever! He even was in "Belle epoque", which one the Oscar!

Due to the horrifying nature of this film, no one will be admitted to the theatre.

I later discovered it only because I think he changed his name from leaf to Joaquin Phoenix. In his earlier years the really annoying kid in "Spacecamp".

Also I had totally never made the connection between the redhead Cynthia Nixon in "Sex and the City" and her role in the 70's film "little Darlings" until I rewatched the movie several months back.

Usually I don't "discover" them in a movie, I just revisit a film i haven't seen in ages and notice it.

Kurt Russell(around 9 or 10 at the time) kicked Elvis in It happened at the World's Fair, thus doing what we all wanted to do to Elvis for going lame.

Dean Stockwell- I was only familiar with him as AL in Quantum Leap, then saw him as a child actor in The Boy With Green Hair and Kim. Man, he grew up hard!

Everyone has potentially fatal flaws, but yours involve a love of soldiers' wives, an insatiable thirst for whiskey, and the seven weak points in your left ventricle.

Oh yes, I had forgotten to mention! And that came on just the other week - I watched just parts of it but again one fo those movies you just sorta forget who was in it.
