A forgotten 1980 film, The Idolmaker follows a busboy’s rise to stardom (Pater Gallagher) under the guidance of a man who wrote the songs, taught him the moves and controlled every facet of his life. It was not exactly a great film, but Gallagher showed how he played the “perfect male” years before anyone really knew who he was. Admittedly, it is a bit of nostalgia that put him on this ballot.
