Kevin Costner


Happy Birthday to

Kevin Costner

55 today


Costner's slow build up to his Hollywood career is well documented, the chance encounter with Richard Burton who told him to follow his dreams, the soft-core debut, the cutting room floor of The Big Chill, all fascinating steps towards a successful leading man appeal. Still his choices since he made it have been rocky at best and there's little on the horizon that looks like it's been worth the wait. Mind you, for reasons that will become abundantly clear later his birthday today is somewhat prescient.
