Got it, but only because I totally cheated and used IMDb’s “actors working together” search. I’ll spoiler it, so as not to steal the thunder of someone who may get it without cheating:
“Gus,” which I’d never heard of.
Here’s one of my favorites:
Samuel L. Jackson
Brad Pitt
Val Kilmer
Dennis Hopper
James Gandolfini
Christopher Walken
Michael Rapaport
Chris Penn
Gary Oldman
Tom Sizemore
Jack Black (in a deleted scene that’s included on the DVD)
Some cast!

Is it Gus?
Ok, an easy one:
Joey Lauren Adams
Rory Cochrane
Marissa Ribisi
Ben Affleck

Correct! Those guys all had fairly small roles; if I’d said Christian Slater and Patricia Arquette it would have been an immediate giveaway.
**astorian** , is that _Kelly’s Heroes_? (I didn’t cheat this time.)

“ **Voyage of the Rock Aliens** ”
and I’m willing to bet “And When The Rain Begins To Fall” is from that movie. Guess who sings it? (or do you actually remember the song?)

Adding a little note since this thread is stagnant. Ragtime is one of my favorite movies, and the Broadway musical is also wonderful. If you can’t see the play at least get the OCR. You’ll love it. Audra McDonald is in it, nuff said.
