Significant success as an actor, Howard has never achieved. All of his roles have been quite the same type - shirt guy from the backwoods. From this period is remarkable only his role in the unexpectedly popular low-budget film "American Graffiti" (1973) by George Lucas. The success did not wait for Howard as actor, but came to Howard as a director in 1982 after rolling tape "Night Shift". Bright and cheerful comedy with little plot wildly definitely appealing to the audience. Work in film as an actor Howard by the time the film virtually ceases. Next picture "Splash" was released in 1984 and confidently hold the leading position. Picture, among other things gives rise to yet another world star - the magnificent Tom Hanks. Next picture director, released the following year, fantastic melodrama "Cocoon", becoming one of the landmark works for the cinema in those years, writing at his own expense, two Oscars, for best visual effects and best supporting actress.
