Wasn't Sean Penn always a little beat up? The stonewashed, pre-worn denim of the Hollywood off-the-peg range.

Cruise, meanwhile, is more botoxed up than beat up, I suspect.

Kevin Bacon managed to steal a march on his contemporaries be being partnered with Fred Ward in Tremors, I feel, making him seem a decade more grizzled than he really was, by association.

In fact that on-screen pairing, coupled with his subsequent role in Apollo 13, means I now have intermittent false memory syndrome according to which Kevin Bacon was actually in The Right Stuff, at a time when he was in fact making the far brat-packier Footloose.

There may in fact be multiple overlapping Kevin Bacon timelines, all shifted back, forwards and sideways by a few degrees.
