And Chris Cooper looks nothing like him. Not that it has to but the real Laroche has teeth missing to the side of his bottom teeth. I wonder why they decided to change it to the front teeth.
shareBecause chris cooper has a bridge instead of front teeth? Yu can tell in the movie he has no front teeth.

John Laroche is a tall guy, skinny as a stick, pale-eyed, slouch-shouldered, and sharply handsome, in spite of the fact that he is missing all his front teeth.share

A calamitous frost in South Florida in 1989 killed off a lot of nursery stock, including some of Laroche's, and then, in 1991, a bad batch of fungicides killed orchids and other plants in greenhouses all around the country. Laroche had barely anything left. Three years earlier, a drunk driver had run into his car; the accident knocked out Laroche's front teeth, put his wife in a coma for several weeks, and killed his mother and uncle. (emphasis mine)
