A break-out movie can be good, so-so, or a true stinker. Name the actor who went on to fortune and fame as a result of the following break-out movies. -1. Thelma and Louise -2. A Fistful of Dollars -3. The Blob -4. Leprechaun -5. The Night Shift -6. Risky Business -7. Steel Magnolias -8. For A Few Dollars More -9. Easy Rider -10. Cat Ballou -11. Friday the 13th (original) -12. Niagara -13. The Four Horsemen of The Apocalypse -14. Zulu -15. Basic Instinct -16. Bang The Drum Slowly Alea iacta est.

Clint Eastwood became a star as a result of the first "spaghetti western", A Fistful of Dollars, but in the sequel, a co-star became enormously popular--in Europe--achieving almost a cult status. Try again, Haroula. Alea iacta est.

Though he had modest success in the US, Lee Van Cleef was a major star abroad, making a series of "spaghetti westerns" and dramas. "The Good,The Bad and The Ugly" is said to be Quentin Tarantino's favorite movie. Alea iacta est.
