A quick film question.

After seeing a number of threads in this section I have a quick question.

What actor ruined a film (in it's directors cut or theatrical cut form) that also happened to be the highlight of that same actors career while also never experiencing a death/divorce in their family (but not in the last 5 years) but the film was also considered by many to be the best film in 1974 (I only mention that year as it's the same as my year of birth). But also that actor has a career that many people have now written off and do you consider needs a revival but by who, Tarantino or Rodriguez?

Good question, but the only people I can come up with eventually got fat, so I lost all respect for them.

THE GRAVY TRAIN (aka THE DION BROTHERS) directed by Jack Starrett and starring Stacy Keach, Frederic Forrest and Margot Kidder. And you can pick any one of those actors. I'll go with Kidder.

You fail, sorry. I forgot to mention I will only accept names with no vowels in them. But a good try.

In that case, excuse me while I go check my Polish Film Guide for 1974.
