Rob Lowe still harbours resentment after several of his scenes were cut from classic 1980s movie The Outsiders without his knowledge, insisting the snub is "unforgivable". The actor made his big screen debut playing Sodapop Curtis in Francis Ford Coppola's adaptation of the S.E. Hinton novel, about feuding teenage gangs in the 1960s. But he admits he was devastated after watching the film for the first time and realising his part had been significantly reduced. He says, "Somebody could have... Read more

He has since made the impossible possible, donned prosthetic hands to play an egotistical producer, with a penchant for rap music and ditched the Hollywood persona to play a hit-man. It was no mean feat, but we managed to skim down Cruise’s films to a succinct top 10...... Read more
Rob Lowe is thankful he is an actor - because the death of his friend Patrick Swayze has made him realise he can be immortal as he will always be captured on screen. The star appeared alongside Swayze in his breakthrough film, Francis Ford Coppola's The Outsiders, and was left devastated when the star died on 14 September (09) following a two-year battle with pancreatic cancer. But the tragic news has made Lowe reflect on his own life and appreciate that he will forever be remembered through... Read more
