From the golden age of youthpolitation – early to mid 80s – comes Caren’s epic “older woman” to seduce her fresh-faced French student, played by Matt Lattanzi.

Matt who?

Our list of the world’s luckiest guys must include Matt Lattanzi, who not only scored the lead in this film, but somehow managed to wed Olivia Newton John, and he accomplished it all with absolutely zero talent. We have mentioned the luck of Pete Davidson, Dax Shepard and Brad Hall, but this guy tops them all in the four leaf clover department. Compared to him, Brad Hall is the second coming of Orson Welles and Pete Davidson is the new Richard Pryor. Lattanzi was arguably the worst actor in the history of acting, but he was handsome, and must have had some kind of magic, because he had a life that many of us would envy.

Well PART of his life, anyway.

His career really had ups and downs. About a decade after this film, he was working on a construction crew. Then he scored a minor comeback as a soap star, only to fall back on his face again. The last I heard, he was living somewhere off the grid. Even his own daughter rarely posts pics of him on social media. Here’s what he looks like today.

As for Caren Kaye, she left acting about 30 years ago and got a bunch of advanced degrees. Last I heard she was Dr. Caren Kaye, psychologist. About two years ago she wrote a LinkedIn article about her parents, who were married for an incredible 68 years.
