Last week, we watched Dangerous Liaisons with its all-star cast: Glenn Close, Michelle Pfeiffer, John Malkovich, Uma Thurman, Swoosie Kurtz and, in a fairly minor role, Keanu Reeves. The film came out in 1988, before the Matrix movies and the Bill & Ted movies and Speed and all the other films that made Keanu Reeves who he is. But even so, in our discussion this week, a lot of the students simply could not get past his current image enough to accept him in as a credible character in 18th century France. One student said that, as an actor, Reeves ranges from Dude to Surfer Dude. Bogus!
