My Take
Chris O'Donnell earned my respect with Scent of a Woman: holding the screen opposite Al Pacino at full roar is a trial by fire, and he didn't flinch. He was introduced to us as a pretty face out of teenage modeling, but I think his real gift is dependability — the steady, likable presence that television eventually rewarded with a long career. Adding producer credits shows a practical intelligence about the business. He never chased prestige or scandal; he simply kept working. That Hollywood Walk of Fame star reads to me as a craftsman's medal rather than a celebrity trophy.
