As far as versatility with characterizations go, how about Ruth Wright, who did Huey/Riley on the Boondocks?

Found it, duh.

Okay, didn't Stephen say he had Clint Eastwood in mind when he wrote this story? Well, Clint has a son, Scott. He looks exactly like Clint, those steely blue eyes. Rough this boy up--tone down some of that pretty-- and hopefully he can act.

"Too much twisted steel and sex appeal. It'd look like (we) won him in a raffle." (my second favorite movie quote, and so applicable here :D)

I have always pictured Eddie Dean as Joe Pesci. With the whole 'could talk the devil into setting himself on fire' and 'My Cousi Vinny' NY mob schtic. I know he is a bit old...perhaps a younger version?
But Eddie is supposed to be a 21 YO, moderately attractive guy--dark hair, hazel eyes, great smile (I'm reading DoTT again right now & just passed his description--lol. For some reason, I saw him as older than that for years.) Pesci is a great actor, but he's nowhere near any of that :)
