答疑：毅力啊Imagine you are one of the most-famous movie stars in the world. Millions of people pay to see your films, and everyone seems to know your name. 30 years later, you are attending a comic book convention in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. You sit alone, almost unrecognized, waiting for people to come and shake your hand.
Richard Roundtree played the part of police detective John Shaft in three movies in the early 1970s. The movies made him an internationally recognized movie star. Since then, he has had a good career on television shows. But he has never been as famous as he was when he played John Shaft.
Richard Roundtree was so well-known for the part that he was chosen to play few other roles in the 1980s and 90s. That was because casting directors believed that movie goers could not see him as anyone other than John Shaft.想象一下你是全世界最受欢迎的电影明星之一：成千上万的人付钱看你的电影，你的大名家喻户晓。30年后，当你参加宾夕法尼亚州费城举办的漫画书展之时，几乎没有人能认出你，你独自地坐着，等着人们过来跟你握手。
20世纪70年代， 理查德·朗德特依在三部电影里都扮演了警探约翰·夏福特这一角色。这一系列电影使他成为了国际知名影星。从那时开始，他在电视节目行业一帆风顺。但其随后的名气却不远及扮演约翰·夏福特时的那般如日中天。
众所周知的是， 理查德·朗德特依在20世纪八九十年代几乎没有演过其他的角色。 角色导演们深知，他早已定格为影迷们心中的那个约翰·夏福特，仅此而已。
