Interesting how I have recently discovered spotting many of my favorite neighborhood actors in big-time movies! I'm sure we have all seen Mr. Aber in Silence of the Lambs, as well as Chef Brockett (as a smiling, deranged prisoner). One of my favorite movies has always been Flashdance (from 1983) and Don Brockett has a few appearances in it. He plays Pete, a rugged steelworker who is friends with the male lead. We see him near the beginning, in the nightclub, and coming out of the steel mill with other workers. Its not a big part, but I was a bit taken aback when I first saw the movie, because it was sort of odd seeing him in a more adult type movie I guess. My first thought was, Chef Brockett, is that you?! lol.
