they were in this movie.
We have a simple little game played on one of the Forums I frequent. The rules are simple. Name a movie that you have seen years ago and that you just watched years later only to discover some famous face before he/she broke it big.
The rules are simple:
1) They cannot have been famous at the time.
2) It has to be someone that is actually famous now.
3) It cannot be a movie that you recently saw for the first time - recognizing someone famous in a bit role.
I'll start...
I remember watching Lean on Me with Morgan Freeman fairly frequently in my younger years. No idea why. I just took a likin' to it. It's pretty standard fare with a rough and tough, no nonsense principal taking over an inner city school. Eventually he wins them over with discipline and love, yada, yada, yada. They make grades. They win the big game. Everyone gets a cookie. I don't know. Details are hazy.
But anyway... there's a scene in the beginning where he calls several students on stage and promptly expels them. Watching it again recently, I noticed amid all the "whatever dude"'s and "that's neither radical or gnarly"'s none other than a teenage Michael Imperioli. Or as you might better know him, Christopher from the Sopranos. I don't even think he was listed in the credits, but there he was for all of ten seconds.
Please feel free to fire away some of your own.

I never had it like this where I grew up. But I send my kids here because the fact is you go to one of the best schools in the country: Rushmore. Now, for some of you it doesn't matter. You were born rich and you're going to stay rich. But here's my advice to the rest of you: Take dead aim on the rich boys. Get them in the crosshairs and take them down. Just remember, they can buy anything but they can't buy backbone. Don't let them forget it. Thank you.Herman Blume - Rushmore

I remeber watching CannonBall Run with Shirley Maclaine and Burt Reynolds.... there was an asian guy co-piloting a Mitsubishi Starion that was being driven in the race by Richard Kiel of James Bond villian fame. I paid no real attention to the guy until I saw the movie on cable a few months ago... The guys name?.... Jackie Chan!The Gear...
