One of my favourite actors. The dude is a legend of course but he was great in True Grit also.

Lloyd is in decent shape, but, I think I'm better than him.

It's go time.

Lloyd Bridges in Hot Shots is one of the funniest roles in cinema history.

It’s nice to see a movie star’s wife looking like a normal woman…

Your definition of ripped is different than mine. Looks like he's in great shape, that's for sure tho. Similar to Spartacus(1960 film), everybody was in great shape but nobody was ripped.

Telling somebody (insert name here) will kick their ass for having a different definition of ripped then denying it even though it's right there in the comments above.....lol

Like you said, hey you do you.

I'm the guy who said I'm in better shape than Bridges.

It was a lighthearted Seinfeld reference. But then dude posted a pic, and I realize that it's actually true. Am I ripped? I don't smoke nearly as much as I used to. But if y'all don't pipe down, I'm kicking everyone's ass.

Yep. Just a byproduct of their time. Transport any classic old time star to modern times, they'll be ripped. And the reverse applies too, like Hugh Jackman wouldn't be ripped if he was a old time film star.

Dorothy and Lloyd were married for almost 60 years and it ended only with Lloyd's death.

Yeah, but let's face it. Growing up in a house where both of your parents were actors might leave you predisposed to going that route anyway.

>She encouraged each of her children to "pretend" for an hour each day.[2] Her son, Jeff Bridges, later said that the playtime "pretend" games were "basically the basis of acting."

The difference here being that back then people would say things like "it runs in the family" while referring to the talent but by the same token nobody that I can think of tried to claim that their becoming famous had absolutely nothing to do with who they were related to.

It was openly acknowledged that being raised in the culture by people who were already famous gave you a leg up and noone was really trying to pretend otherwise.

I can't imagine everyone was rushing to train total n00bs on the ins and outs of Hollywood society and the finer points of filming for the big screen vs. performing on a theater stage when they had a whole crop of kids who had been around it since they were in diapers.

>Jeff Bridges notes that both his parents studied under Michael Chekhov and that "and a lot of things my mom learned with him were passed down to all of us."

They came pre-conditioned.

I can’t even think of him hanging upside down off the ceiling without giggling. Forty goddamn years later and I’m still giggling.

In a movie filled with timeless running jokes, the “I picked the wrong week” bit keeps making me laugh, four plus decades later.
