When I was in seventh grade, Nicolas Cage was the ultimate hottie. I watched him in Face/Off and that was it. I was hooked. No pimply, scrawny, junior varsity football player could do it for me after that. I was ruined for the rest of my angst-ridden adolescent years, as who in Georgetown, Texas, could ever live up to...THE CAGE?Unfortunately, Nic has fallen by the wayside these days. His career continues to embarrass me, and I don't really want to see or pay for any of his films. It's just too sad. The receding hairline, the plugs, the desperation, the young, formerly-a-waitress wife...what happened, Nic?
That being said...I rewatched Valley Girl last night and fell in love all over again. His style, Flock of Seagulls hair, voice, awkwardness...it's all just dead sexy. GAWD.
