If you think of Bruce Willis, you will soon see him dodging bombs and grenades in an increasingly dirty white T-shirt. You would almost forget that he started his acting career in the theater and broke through with the general public in a humorous detective series. Moonlighting – with co-star Cybill Sheperd – aired from 1985 to 1989 with a total of 66 episodes. He didn’t like crazy licking like Jim Carrey; in movies like Death Becomes Her on Moonrise Kingdom (in which he excels as a helpless moron), but also in his action films that contain a lot of humor, he often proves that a raised eyebrow or subtly lowering the corner of the mouth is sufficient. His twinkling eyes did the rest.
