It's nice to watch Jeff Bridges in his early films. Compared to, say, Paul Newman, Bridges was great from the get-go, "The Last Picture Show, "Fat City," "Heaven's Gate." Bridges got his first Oscar nomination for "Thunderbolt and Lightfoot," when he was 25. And, as Newman himself did, he's gotten better with age.its been IFC or something lately as well.

interesting as I did not know he was nominated for Thunderbolt and lightfoot. I always liked the Bridges, as I was a big fan of Lloyd in 'Sea Hunt'. As a kid I loved that show. I saw a documentary one time about the family, there was a clip of them actually going scuba diving, and Jeff and Beau getting on Lloyd calling him the great Mike Nelson.It's nice to watch Jeff Bridges in his early films.

Yeah, it must have been really cool growing up in that family.interesting as I did not know he was nominated for Thunderbolt and lightfoot.

Yeah, JB is really good in TFBB, probably his best role.Just reminded me of the Fabulous Baker Boys -- an all time favorite. The brothers did great work together (they did both play piano, but what you hear in the movie is Dave Grusin.) Worth watching in its entirety, but it would be worth it just for this: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gQNFCRom7c0

“Fearless” very good, totally convincing acting out an unbelievable plot.Also, when I happen to land on a channel playing "Tucker" or "KPAX," that's where I stay... (or even "Starman" for that matter)
I love Arlington Road. Every time there is a something I always think back to this and wonder what or who is it really. It is what they are telling us“Fearless” very good, totally convincing acting out an unbelievable plot.
“Arlington Road.”
