Almost any one of the Tom Cruise movie photos
will show you clearly, or suggest broadly how appealing is his great
smile. Even when he’s not smiling, there’s an expression that says he
knows he’s sitting somewhere near the top in Hollywood.
Among collectors of Tom Cruise movie photos there’s
still a mis-recollection: That his first film was the teen sex satire
Risky Business. Actually, he had already been in three
films, one of which was a starring role, but none of which made money.
As appealing as
Risky Business was, and as collectors of Tom Cruise
movie photos will tell you, it took a few years before he became a genuine
star with
Top Gun. That 1986 film firmed up the Cruise swagger
(and was a great recruiting ad for the Navy.)
The file on Tom Cruise movie photos will attest that
he not only stretched his acting talents on his own, he went head–to-head
with older and more legendary stars, such as
Paul Newman,
Dustin Hoffman and
Jack Nicholson.
Some of the Tom Cruise movie photos have a complex and sad story: his marriage to and
then divorce from Nicole Kidman.
The two of them photographed beautifully together (and performed together
in several films) and the story of that break up remains a rich source of
Hollywood gossip.
