ROLE Navajo coder Private Ben Yahzee

WHAT'S HOT More than a pretty face, Beach brings intensity and accuracy to his latest role; he spent six months studying Navajo before showing up on the set.

WHAT'S NOT We don't get to see enough of him. Some commercial movies please!

WHAT'S NEXT ''Now and Forever,'' a multi-culti love story with Mia Kirshner
