A couple friends have decided that it would be fun to imagine which 80s actors might have played the main characters of Your Silent Face if the novel had come out back then. A young Tom Cruise, maybe, or Andrew McCarthy? Molly Ringwald or Cyndi Lauper (yes, I know, she wasn’t an actor)?

Anyway, it’s been fun to entertain, and here’s what they’ve come up with so far.

Stuart: John Cusack

The Viking: Val Kilmer

Nigel:

Karen: Molly Ringwald

Brenda:

Susan:

Cammie:

Phil: Timothy Hutton

J Dog:

James:

The Body Builder:

Uncle Charles:

Grandpa Norcross:

Your Silent Face is also available at the Apple Book Store for your apple devices.
