Body Double: Tom Cruise
There was a lot of hubbub around the web last week when, in an interview with “Black Book”, American Psyho director Mary Harron divulged that she and Christian Bale took some of the inspiration for the iconic Patrick Bateman from another Hollywood icon: Tom Cruise. There have since been a number of sites digging up info on Cruise and his too-good-to-be-true-so-he-must-be-Satan appeal (the best read is at The Playlist) but it’s all hogwash.
Personally, I’ve always like Cruise. His movies may not always work for me (the last few years they’ve been mostly misses) and I can overlook his personal digressions mostly because I expect 90% of Hollywood is bonkers anyways and the fact that he shows it a little more than most is simply his humanity coming through. All of that said, I just stumbled on a video that made me laugh uncontrollably and chances that anyone around these parts has seen it is pretty slim.
It comes from Superhero Movie (hence why no one around here’s likely to have seen it) and the clip features actor Miles Fisher doing the most uncanny impersonation of Cruise. I had to do a double take before realizing it wasn’t really the actor. It’s a fun 2 minutes. If nothing else we know that if something were to happen to Cruise tomorrow, we’d have an immediate replacement. I doubt even Katie would notice.
