The superlatives section of his yearbook lists him as \u201cmost suave\u201d and \u201cman of experience,\u201d among other categories. Douglas broke into acting in the late 1960s and started making a name for himself in the following decade when he was cast as the lead in the series&nbsp;<em>The Streets of San Francisco<\/em>. In 1975, he earned his first major producer credit when he produced the film&nbsp;<em>One Flew Over the Cuckoo\u2019s Nest<\/em>&nbsp;(which later won an Oscar for Best Picture). Douglas was introduced to a new generation of filmgoers when he starred in (and produced) the 1984 hit movie&nbsp;<em>Romancing the Stone<\/em>, and he soon found himself in high demand. Major projects over the years have included starring roles in&nbsp;<em>Wall Street<\/em>,&nbsp;<em>Fatal Attraction<\/em>,&nbsp;<em>Basic Instinct<\/em>,&nbsp;<em>Traffic<\/em>, and&nbsp;<em>Behind the Candelabra<\/em>, and his list of acting and producing credits is a long one.
