162: The Hole (A)


Guy #1.  Getting tackled.  He's Desmond Harrington.  You know, the guy from Wrong Turn who drives his mustang into a van full of hippies during the first scene, only to learn he must then survive a forest totally loaded with demented half-breed-wielding-excellent-bow-skills-having weirdlings.  Yeah, that's him in 2001 in that picture getting tackled.  Wrong Turn didn't debut until 2 years (2003) later.  He plays the famous kid of a rock star, with emaciated cheeks and a boyish charm.  Charm that can barely be seen due to it's depth - deep within a soul of a well rounded middle-aged man - learned by experience but stunted by age - still living in his area high school.  Well rounded because he's the son of a rock star mind you, not because he's actually too old for the part.

Guy #2.  The one doing the tackling.  He's the friend of Guy #1.  He gets pissed when he's supposed to get pissed, gets drunk when he's supposed to get drunk, is horny all the time, and gets crazy with venom when he's stuck in a hole for days on end.

Girl In Background #1: That's Thora Birch.  Good actress who's in a bunch of stuff, most notably American Beauty.  She plays the main character.  A girl who is on the cusp of a win.  A girl who sees a challenge, yet is stymied by life.

Not pictured Girl #2: Keira Knightley.  Otherwise known as famous girl from Bend it like Beckham and Domino.  She plays the Heathers-like girl, full with sweater and quirky smile.  She is the "it" girl, the one that all guys want.  All guys that is but the ones without organs between their running sticks.  She gets what she wants obviously - and does so with a cute accent and the synonym for charm.

Far Guy In A Distance #3: this is Martyn Taylor, played by Daniel Brocklebank.  Martyn is in love with Girl In Background #1 and he would do anything for her.  Anything......

Put them all in a hole/bunker in the middle of nowhere, minus Far In A Distance Guy #3, and throw away the key...
