Russell Crowe. There were other actors in the movie. In fact there
 was one mysterious man who seemed to be cut out of the picture 

 quite often, due to the compression of the screen for the  home video 
version of the movie. My curiosity was aroused, but nothing else was.

Some time later I rented MGGE.  

I was sitting there watching the movie and eating my popcorn. I was thinking that John looked 
even better than he did in the commercial months before. Suddenly, without warning, a man 
walked on to the screen, and told John he had an eye for framing things. I was mesmerized. Later, 
after the party scene ended and there were just the two of them left, the handsome man wanted to 
talk to him about the book he was writing. Kelso got a look that could only be described as 
smoldering. I felt as if  I'd been hit by a bolt of lightning!   ZAP! .   
                                                                  
It was  ... him. An actor I had seen many times before throughout 
the years, but for some reason had never really been aware of 
until now. 

How was this possible? I rented L.A. Confidential again. There he
was! Why had I been ogling that brutish Bud White when the 
oh-so-smooth Jack Vincennes was walking across the screen?? 

I soon found myself searching the Internet for information about this 
actor. I was very surprised to learn that I had seen him in many 
movies and television roles. There were pictures I had never seen
before, and fan sites. So much information. They were many stories about the man. Some were 
very unusual. He was very mysterious. He was called the "enigma" and he was very exciting.
And so handsome. He had something others lacked. He was going bald. 

In a world of hair implants and plastic surgery, his scars and dimples 
and receding hairline were such a breath of fresh air. He had big 
feet and a pointy patch of hair on the top of his head. His hands are 
very large and he has distinctive thumbs. And the cutest little bald 
spot. Or he did. It disappeared one day and was never seen again. 

But that's way down the road. 

I have spent several years searching the Internet, reading magazines,
watching feature films in the theater, on VHS and DVD. I've taped 
old TV movies and new interviews on 60 Minutes, The Late Show 
with David Letterman and The Tonight Show with Jay Leno. As with
most of his fans, I've memorized his bald spot so that I can pick him 
out of crowd shots on TV. I used to anyway. It's hard to do now that he's permanently removed 
his hairpiece from cold storage. I can recognize his hands in close-ups in movies. 

His many nervous habits are well known to all his fans. But, we don't really know *him* the way 
we think we do. Most of the things we know have come from the Internet and stories he's told of 
his own life, which never seem to really add up. But he says he was bad at Math, so maybe that 
explains it.
