But I must admit that every time I watch a movie from the 1970s, I find it so refreshing that the actors come in all shapes and sizes, and, yes, with all manner of teeth. They don't have perfect hairlines or tans.
It's a lot more interesting visually and expresses a wider range of character.
P.S. to henrik: as always, I love your song parodies.

In the 70s and 80s there were actors. People for whom the craft came first. They had bodies that shifted and changed, normal hair, average teeth. Then there was a separate category of sex symbols-celebs with jiggle, pecs, curves and perfect smiles. They were famous but in a different class.
Now actors are expected to be both-physical perfection and emotional depth on film. It's crazy making for actors.
I like stage because it tends to hire more "real" actors and not the overdone film variety.

Did somebody think suestorm and I are the same people? We are not.
I have used two hats here: I began as "Gaveston" until I tried to upload an avatar and it messed up my account.
Unable to fix it. I reregistered as GavestonPS, assuming that most posters would realize I was still the same poster. I have not used the Gaveston logon since.
