Ooh, yes, Peyton List is very hot. I know her from Flashforward and I saw her in a recent movie called Meeting Evil.
I had never heard of Peyton List. Turns out there are two actresses with that name, and one is a very young girl. So I was momentarily confuzzled.
The only substantive criticism I’ve heard of Jessica Pare is that people don’t like her teeth, which is a pretty shallow criticism. The woman is gorgeous.
This is a question I’ve wondered about from time to time. There was one actor who was in a lot of movies back in the 1970s, then he just disappeared. I recall checking Imdb.com a few years ago and saw he was still alive. I cannot for the life of me remember his name now, but he bore a passing resemblance to Peter Fonda. (No, it wasn’t Peter Fonda.) His career seemed good, then nothing.
I’m guilty of that. I think she’s gorgeous until she smiles with her mouth open, which she does very seldom, which makes me thing she’s self conscious about her teeth. And then I wonder why she doesn’t do something.
On the other hand, Bette Davis didn’t have a great open-mouth smile either (small teeth, and gaps) but it didn’t hurt her career.
So there ya go. 
I haven’t missed her. She might have had her Aunt Jane’s looks, but she got all her acting genes from her father. A lousy actress, IMO.
Agreed.
I’ll bet you’re thinking of Michael Sarrazin.
But she had her eyes. 
I was a big fan of Michael Sarrazin, and wondered what happened to him. Turned out he died some years ago. (I need to rewatch The Gumball Rally and The Reincarnation of Peter Proud.
My addition to this thread is Marjoe Gortner. First, you gotta love a name like “Marjoe Gortner”. I remember him from Earthquake (in Sensurround!), so I looked him up on imdb. Turns out he’s not as lost as I thought, although not very active. He acted in Wild Bill in 1995, and produced the TV movie The Fairmont Banff Springs Sports Invitational in 2010. Neither of which I’ve seen, and never heard of the latter, but there you go.
Every name on that list went on to a very successful Hollywood career. Even the Governator, altho it’s true he took a six year gap to serve as the Governor of CA.
NONE of them “seemed to disappear” in any way shape or form.
Speaking of Thora Birch, whatever happened to Mena Suvari. She was Hollywood’s It Girl in the 90s and then just disappeared.
I think she came back for American Reunion, but other than that I don’t remember her even being mentioned in anything.
Your dates are a little off: American Pie and American Beauty both came out in 1999. What happened after that as far as I can tell is that she was in a bunch of movies that weren’t very good.
She’s another one like Shia LaBeouf: she’s been working a lot, it seems, but not in anything I’ve ever heard of (okay, I’ve heard of Six Feet Under).
Showbiz is weird.
The sad thing is that (IMO), she might’ve been good casting to play Eleanor Lance if someone had done a real remake of *The Haunting * instead of this awful nonsense.
Why is it weird? Basically most successful actors are going to have this kind of a career path – they’ll get lucky with one or two very prominent roles and then spend the rest of their career doing less prominent ones.
How many stars could there be at any one time? There are aren’t enough movies and the public can really only pay close attention to a limited number of celebrities.
Bingo! Looks like he went into TV. And I see he died last year. Cancer :(.
I assumed LaBeouf(sp!!!?!!) was still on the run and being sought for his participation in the brutal rape of Indiana Jones.
Yeah, but… Keanu Reeves? 
Adrian Brody, not done much after his oscar. Hayden Christenssen, not much done since Jumper.
He has star quality. It’s rarer than talent.
Define star quality good sir.
