Although his activities in his private life are questionable, I'm almost always impressed by his choice of film roles. His big breakout role was, of course, as the cop in "L.A. Confidential" but prior to that, Crowe did a film with Bridgette Fonda called "Rough Magic" that was really wonderful. I recommend it to anyone that can find it on DVD. ------------------------ Yahoo! Groups Sponsor --------------------~--> Get fast access to your favorite Yahoo! Groups.
