Distractions


Ian Tracey. Canadian actor. Guy.




Ben Stiller.
His major accomplishment is that
he is fine-looking fella despite being
the child of Stiller and Meara.
Easy on the eyes, but, I'm afraid,
not that funny.




Perry King. Ran into him, almost
literally, in the parking lot by a bar
in Death Valley last June. He was
fixing his motorbike.

(Thanks to Invisible Anonymous
for reminding me that it was
not a car but a motorbike.
Indispensible and right,
as always.)

I can't get with ya' on Ben Stiller. I've never found him attractive though he did look much better when first starting out -- or maybe he was just making much better films so we didn't notice?

But, Ian Tracey -- WhooooooBaby! I've been crushing on him for 20 years. Seriously, since 1988. Not what yoyu would call convetionally handsome but nice and with so much presence, screen charisma and unadulterated talent he just knocks your socks off.

I could go on about Ian, but my keyboard is starting to fill with drool and that's kinda gross......lol.

Understand about Stiller, explorer.

And glad to find another Tracey fan.

I'm just amazed that there are actually TWO other guys who remember Ian Tracey.

And not only do you remember him, but *admire* him as much as I do. :)

Ian is one of the guys I will go out of my way to see in anything at all - which means I have seen him in some real crap - but it was Ian, so I could put up with the crappiness when he was on screen.

I like his intensity and his mastery of 'less is more'. Even as a child actor, he didn't overact. If you are acle to find a copy of "Dreamspeaker" from 1977 or 8 - be prepared to be completely stunned with what this little 11 year old does. No exaggeration. I was floored.

Josh Charles is another master of 'less is more'. That man can convey more in a single twitch of a facial muscle than anyone I have ever seen. Which is why I also go out my way to watch him.
