A Guide To Recognizing Your Saints

Actor/Model Channing Tatum, 25, plays buff young thug Antonio in A Guide To Recognizing Your Saints.  In his opening scene, he struts down the graffitied, dirty streets with a bruised face and jumps a Puerto Rican kid who is harassing Dito (Shia LaBeouf).  Said of Channing’s performance in the movie ::

Channing Tatum gives the movie a huge, bright spark. Antonio is one of the most difficult but one of the most important roles in the film. He needed to convey tremendous vulnerability despite his tendency to violence. Channing manages to generate huge empathy for Antonio. We can see how troubled he is, and we can see that everything he does, while it may be misguided, is done out of love and friendship for Dito.

A Guide To Recognizing Your Saints (Release Date :: TBD 2006) is a quintessentially American story of young man Dito’s (Shia LaBeouf) hunger for experience, his dawning awareness of the bigger world across the bridge, and of the loyalties that bind him to a violent past and to the flawed and desperate “saints” that have guided him."A Guide To Recognizing Your Saints also co-stars Robert Downey Jr. and Rosario Dawson.  More pictures in the gallery!
