Dennis Quaid Movie List

 

Dennis Quaid is a celebrity actor who dropped out of university and decided to try his luck as an actor after his brother was nominated for an Academy Award in 1974. He had some trouble finding work in the early years, but began to get noticed after his appearance in the movie “Breaking Away.” His career flourished and he found himself acting in a sting of successful movies during the 1980′s. Unfortunately, a cocaine addiction and battle with anorexia slowed his career down, but fortunately he was able to recover from both and eventually make a successful return to acting.
