Look at some pics of real mobsters some time. They're not known for their fantastic complexions.

Great reply bro.

As a woman, I find men with perfect rosey complexions to look like nancy boys. I associate sandpaper hands and faces that look weathered by life to look and be more masculine.

I agree with you. Pretty boys lack something as scared faces get it. I am not a big fan of baby faces and for this kind of role I have nothing against scars and marks... it doesn't make the actors less suitable and they are very masculine, as you are saying. I like watching them because it looks like they have experienced some trauma that makes them more credible.

Isn't the reason they have pockmarked faces not necessarily because they've lived a tough outdoors-y kind of life but most likely because they used to be very spotty teenagers?

By the way you lot forgot Tommy Lee Jones.

They didn't cast james woods though!!!!!!!!!! Should of. He has however acted as another real life killer. Carl panzram. Fooking nutjob!!!!

reply

James Woods? How about the king himself- F. Murray Abraham!

reply

That's a good one but he's merely a prince of acne scarring compared to the man who uses a blow torch to shave. The incomparable Danny Trejo!!!!

The reason you see people with faces like that is not because they had acne but because they had acne and picked at it. I had really bad acne as a teen but never picked at it and today you wouldn't know I ever had a pimple in my life.

Not necessarily. There are forms of acne that cause tissue damage whether you pick at them or not. And of course there is chicken pox and other diseases...

Wait... Edward James Olmos was in this movie?

No Robert Davi. Looks similar to Olmos.
