Red West
Long careers are rarer than they look, and Red West has become a familiar face recognizable to viewers well beyond any single title. He appears in 'Safe Haven' too. 24 was the age at the first credit. The career has been split between cinema and television rather than settled in either. The film 'Natural Born Killers' accounts for more of the public profile than anything else does.
