| Re Jason Patric,
I don't know how old he is, but believe he's Irish.

| Jason Patric is American, I think. I have never seen any movies of his
where he had any kind of an accent... and I've seen several of his.
Some of his movies are: Lost Boys, The Beast, Rush... and I can't
think! He is about 25 years old, as he is a close friend of Keifer
Sutherland and Julia Roberts, and they are right around that age. He
was the one Julia turned to when she and Keifer broke up. Nice looking
guy, REALLY nice eyes! But he tends to play a dark part, even in Lost
Boys, he was a dark person.
Back to the topic, haven't seen Geronimo yet, but want to. I always
hated history as a kid, and now can't get enough of it, especially the
old West stuff. I hope they don't glorify the Indians, or the settlers
in this one, as has happened in most other "Cowboy and Indian" movies.

| I just got off the phone with the library, it's wonderful some of the
things they can tell you!
Jason Patric is 26 years old, in a Time magazine interview from July
1991 he was 24 at that time. Rolling Stone Magazine says he was born
in a small town in New Jersey but move to California at an early age!
hope that helps!

Thanks for the great info. I thought he was around that
age but really couldn't tell just by looking.
I don't think I ever heard of the movie the Beast. Is that
the title of the movie? Is it in the drama, mystery, scifi
section?
I once saw the movie Frankenstein Unbound (SP)??
in which Jason made a special appearance. He played
George Byron the english poet, in which he had an
accent.

One stale box of milk duds for a review :-)

417.6 | high marks for "Geronimo" | NOVA::ZASTERA | | Thu Jan 06 1994 18:52 | 7 |
| I've been trying to figure out how come nobody has started a topic on
Geronimo yet. I saw it at least a month ago and thought it was a really
excellent movie. At least one order of magnitude better than "Dances
with Wolves" (a fairly ho-hum flick I thought) and two orders better than
"Last of the Mohicans" (a movie that was annoying in so many ways...).

| For what it's worth, Terrence Rafferty gave this an excellent review in
"The New Yorker." He did say that it will probably not be
a box office smash, but that it's a good old fashinoned
Western (he compared it to John Ford great movies "My Darling
Clementine," and "She Wore a Yellow Ribbon."
He also said that unlike "Dances with Self, er, Wolves" there
are both good and bad Native Americans and good and bad U.S.
solders. Gene Hackman was singled out as particularly good (when
isn't he?).

| re: Hackman - he wasn't good in Unforgiven!!! at Little Billy. Just
caught that last night on free HBO.
I'll probably wait for the video of Geromino. I'd like to see it, but
I don't think I'd want to spent $15 to see it.
