Love her - she's just incredible, like to see anything she's worked on. Finally got around to seeing Hell or High Water. I found it to be VERY entertaining and would highly recommend watching it if you haven't already. Bridges performance was perfect and Pine did a pretty damn good job too, but Foster was just incredible. |

I've thought of him as an actor who perfectly fills the space between the always-solid character actors and the stars that come and go. His seven Academy Award nominations across 45 years back that up. He just brings it, every time, even when I don't care at all for the material; e.g., the Big Lebowski. The recent The Old Man series was remarkably poorly done and didn't reflect either Bridges' nor Lithgow's capabilities at anywhere near their best. It was a real waste of talent, I thought. My 2¢, of course. In addition, IIRC, Bridges' lymphoma cancer held up production of that series for an extended period of time. Later he said "‘Covid made my cancer look like nothing". I hope we'll see Bridges provide us with his personal brand of entertainment for at least a few more years.

BTW, I liked "The Old Man." Also, thought "Hell or High Water" was an excellent film.

Of course, it's not partial since I'm a big fan of "The Dude." His role in the remake of True Grit was awesome as well. |

I've just never gotten into stuff like that. I like that stuff that's at least tangentially grounded in something close to reality. I have thoughts on why certain people enjoy things like that, but I don't want to get another infraction. I really enjoy this OT section more than most. |

Wait, that's Kurt Russell not Jeff Bridges, plus other good actors. Good movie, btw.

And yeah, "True Grit," the remake, was a very good movie. I, personally, liked it better than the original, and that's saying something because that was with John Wayne.

Watched “ticket of paradise” today. Enjoyable romcom movie. I liked the settings, storyline, acting, etc. It’s a throwback to Eat, Pray, Love and Up In The Air.

I thoroughly enjoyed the True Grit remake, loved Rooster Cogburn lol. Another awesome job by Bridges. He's quickly become another one of my favorite actors.
You didn't like the Big Lebowski??? "Well... that's just.... your opinion man....." 🤣 |

Not sure how anyone could dislike The Big Lebowski. My advice is to watch it again, I didn't get it the first time - I think I stopped watching it. After a white russian or 2 might help as well.
dradernh - that's a shame to hear about The Old Man. I did hear about his health scare as well. His photography is pretty badass too! Found this just now: |

Most people, and bartenders, use a crappy recipe for a white russian and use way to much half and half or use milk instead. |
