Tom Cruise Rewind

By 1985, Tom Cruise had already worked with two well-known directors in his four years in Hollywood: first, there was Francis Ford Coppola on The Outsiders (1983), and then there was Ridley Scott and Legend (1985). As the story goes, Cruise was hot off of Risky Business when he became involved with the production of this film. However, its disastrous reception upon release nearly ended Cruise's career before it even began.
