U Won’t Believe How The Jheri Curl Actor From “The Wood” Looks NOW!

His name was “Slim” and he and his boy, “Roland” (TrentCameron), hyped up the newcomer at their school, “Mike” (Sean Nelson) into grabbing the pretty girl, “Alicia’s” (Malinda Williams) butt on the school yard during lunch.

That ultimately caused “Mike” to get a SERIOUS beat down by “Alicia’s” gang bangin’ brother. That was one of the funniest scenes in the movie and it didn’t help that neither one of Mike’s homies were very willing to help him fight, LOL.

Duane Finley, a.k.a. "Slim" & family!


Although he hasn't had many roles since "The Wood", his most recent role was in The Breaking Point, which was directed by his former the Wood co-star, Sean Nelson...talk about coming full circle. It was good to see those brothers reconnect for that project.

We salute the incredible people and beautiful memories of that "old school". We’re not saying that every artist and every facet of the soul era was perfect, but the artists’ contributions to soul music and the old school memories of that particular time are PRICELESS.
