Brolin started his career in TV movies and guest spots on TV shows before getting a more notable role as Brand Walsh in the Richard Donner-directed movie The Goonies (1985).

John O'Mara Bockris (born January 5, 1923, in South Africa) is a former professor of Chemistry at Texas A&M University whose unorthodox views have provoked controversy. He has authored, coauthored or edited more than 700 papers and 22 books principally in electrochemistry but also in environmental chemistry, photoelectrochemistry and bioelectrochemistry. His two volume Modern Electrochemistry (second edition) Plenum, (2000) is commonly used in colleges. In the 1990s, he experimented with cold fusion.

John Bockris earned his B.Sc (1943) from Brighton Technical College, Ph.d. (1945) and D.Sc (1952) degrees in electrochemistry from Imperial College, London (1945–1953). He moved to USA in 1953 to join the University of Pennsylvania as Professor of Chemistry (1953–1971).

In 1970, Bockris, a professor at the University of Pennsylvania, said he had found a method for using sunlight to free hydrogen from water and coined the term "hydrogen economy" to describe the application of the anticipated technology. In 1975 he published Energy The Solar-Hydrogen Alternative. In 1982, at Texas A&M, he announced a "quantum leap" in his hydrogen-fuel technology through a "secret catalyst" that split water into hydrogen and oxygen even without the energy of sunlight. In 1984, he said he had found a material that facilitated complete conversion of sunlight to electricity. All of these "discoveries" were eventually attributed to basic errors in his research, although Bockris himself never acknowledged his mistakes.
