My sister and I both thought Peter was going to have a great career and the brunette co-star would probably fade away. Probably a good thing for Mr. Hanks that neither one of us work in Hollywood casting.

I was just the opposite. I didn't even remember Peter was the other guy until years later. I remember seeing Hanks and thinking, "now there's a guy with potential."
