Today, the Shattered Lens wishes a happy birthday to one of my favorite character actors, Nicky Katt!

In 1993’s Dazed and Confused, Katt had a small but pivotal role as Clint.  Clint is the guy who loves his car, drinking beer, smoking weed, and beating up people.  Mike (played by Adam Goldberg) runs afoul of Nick at the end of the year party and later decides that he has no choice but to fight back.  Needless to say, Clint is the better fighter of the two but at least Mike got one good punch in!

(For a while, there was talk of a Dazed and Confused sequel, in which Clint would have turned his life around and become both a born again Christian, and a respected member of the community while Mike would still be obsessing about their brief fight in 1976,)
