Vincent as Bobbie in Another Day in Paradise


For those who don't know, the film was based on late author Eddie Little's raw story about drugs and young Bobbie's always darkening life. The movie was different than the novel but there is a sequel in which Bobbie reaches the age of 18. Honestly, I fell in love with Bobbie's character and his sobering plight. Vincent still looks fairly young for his age and I'm sure he could look 17-18 again. I realize it is highly unlikely for the sequential novel "Steel Toes" to ever become a film, but given Kartheiser's acting chops, as a fan of the obscure story it is a "penny into the fountain" wish of mine.

Sadly Vincent is starting to age. So I don't think he can pull of being 17-18.

How about early 20s? They could utilize some creative liberties. It's not like Bobbie's life ever changes.

I love Steel Toes. I read both books after seeing the movie and I actually liked Steel Toes better. I wish they would have made Steel Toes into a movie but I just don't think he could pass for that young anymore. Maybe back when he was on Angel bu not now. He's aged a LOT in the face.
