IKR?????

Re: John Denver?????

I've read that too, but man he would have been almost forty in 1982, a little too old to be a fresh out of college navy recruit (although Gere was in his thirties, but pulled it off.)

Re: John Denver?????

I just don't see John Denver as a romantic lead and certainly not the "bad boy" that Zach was. When I read he was offered the role, I couldn't believe it. Now if they had cast him as Sid, that probably would have worked.
