Being Russell Brown... starring John Cusack 

The question of the day is "who would you have star in a movie about your life?" For a long time I have thought that John <-- Cusack would play me (in my thinner years) or maybe Judd --> Nelson (in my fatter years). I had a conversation with my brother-in-law about this, which spawned a discussion about my favorite John Cusack film (since Judd Nelson's career pretty much ended after "From the Hip" in the eighties, although he did do a nice turn as a smarmy record producer in "Airheads") and I thought I would offer the definitive list. So here you have the top ten movies (that I have seen) starring John Cusack...

10. Con Air (1997)
9. Serendipity (2001)
8. Money for Nothing (1993)
7. High Fidelity (2000)
6. Eight Men Out (1988)
5. Runaway Jury (2003)
4. The Grifters (1990)
3. Better Off Dead... (1985)
2. Grosse Pointe Blank (1997)
1. Say Anything... (1989)

I'd like to hear from you... who would you want to play you?

Over the years, I've been told that I resemble Val Kilmer, Toby Maguire, and Simon Le Bon of Duran Duran (not sure if he's ever acted in movies). I guess I'd be okay with any of them playing me.
