I like these moments

I like the moments when I recognize an actress or an actor – when I am watching a film and I spot someone I did not know was in the cast. Or someone playing against type. Or someone at an early moment of their career.

In the midst of an incredibly busy stretch (and on laundry duty again), I find myself watching The Indian Runner – a film written and directed by Sean Pean based on Bruce Springsteen‘s song “Highway Patrolman” and featuring David Morse and Viggo Mortensen.

All of a sudden, I had an ah-ha moment. That is Benicio Del Toro, I said. A very young Benicio Del Toro, but Benicio Del Toro. Of course David and Viggo were also young.

I checked on IMDB and sure enough. Bernicio Del Toro. I like these moments.

See you along the Trail.
