The Fisher King (Terry Gilliam!!)

Jeff Bridges is also in the movie Tideland written and directed by Terry Gilliam. I enjoyed the movie a lot. You might check it out if you haven't already. Jeff doesn't talk a lot in it so I don't know how you would judge the acting. The little girl in it did an amazing job though!

Yay for this thread!!! The first movie I remember seeing him in was Starman...be still my girlish heart, he and River Phoenix graced my bedroom walls....I was totally smitten!! and cried like a big baby at the end

American Heart...so good!!!

I have not seen True Grit yet, maybe this friday on my movie date with the hubberuski.

Bridges in Starman is one of my all-time favorite movie performances.

I liked him in the Hyundai and Duracell ads. His best work yet, if you ask me.

I noticed Crazy Heart isn't getting any mention...That was a VERY powerful movie. Well, powerful if you lived that life and saw it done so well on screen. I can't recommend it enough. True Grit was the last movie I absolutely had to see on opening day...the only one out there that I will run to see on opening day is Cowboys and Aliens
