Michael Sarrazin, 1970.
Ever since my father showed me The Gumball Rally
, the classic seventies film of fast cars, I've had a rather irrational crush on Michael Sarrazin. The Quebecois actor known for his soulful blue eyes hasn't always been known for his acting talent, though he was in some classics of late sixties/ early seventies American cinema, including They Shoot Horses Don't They
. With his perfectly shaggy hair it is easy to see why he dated one of the most beautiful women of the era, Jacqueline Bisset, for a period. For those who do not know his work I would definitely recommend all of the movies included in this post, especially Eye of the Cat
, The Gumball Rally and They Shoot Horses Don't They. The Gumball Rally
