3 Ethan Hawke.
You've maybe heard the name, now name a movie.

I gave up, checked the filmography, and without giving away the game I had to go back to 2001. Maybe that says something about me as well, but usually pretty good at that game.

4 So his parents were from Austin, divorced when he was five, lived with mom the charity worker, who became a middle class transient for five years then re-married, and without any on-paper credentials somehow worked his way into the fast track for young male actors. Uh huh.

Here's you one chance, Fancy, don't let me down.

5 You've maybe heard the name, now name a movie.

Predestination 2014.
To be fair, I remembered the title as "All You Zombies" which is the name of the Heinlein short story the movie was made from.

7 I enjoyed Training Day, but I've only seen it once, and I had forgotten Hawke was the supporting actor.

Last time variance movie I watched and enjoyed was "The One", unless "Jean Claude van Johnson" counts.
