Michael Paré

Michael Paré is, to me, the patron saint of the working actor. He had his shot at stardom with Eddie and the Cruisers and Streets of Fire, two films whose cult glow has only deepened, and when the A-list door closed he simply kept acting, relentlessly, in whatever the business offered. I respect that far more than a tidy prestige career. There's an unpretentious blue-collar quality to him, fitting for a Brooklyn kid who started as a model, and his 1980s work still carries a romantic, neon-lit charge that modern blockbusters rarely manage. Durability is its own kind of talent.
