Nice Marmot.

I must agree on Jeff Bridges' role in "Hell or High Water" as being very well done.

Someone mentioned "The Big Lebowski". I attempted to watch that one twice; couldn't get very far into it either time. That dud was far from Bridges or John Goodman's better works.

Buck Taylor ?

I also like Hell or High Water!
For a while now, Jeff has been showing that crusty demeanor.
I like this movie so much, have seen it twice.
It’s on Netflix.
Trivia Bullet - who’s the famous character actor who’s a bank customer and gets robbed?

Love every character he's ever played. He won me over as Star Lord's father (and a planet) in the second "Guardians of the Galaxy". Then made me laugh out loud when he showed up reprising "The Dude" in a beer commercial.

Sorry Bud....but that was Kurt Russell....in guardians...

I’ve seen Hell or High Water 10 times at least!

The True Grit remake was more realistic than the original. I
just wondered how he shot off hand from his patched eye.

I have to agree...I love the original...it might be my favorite John Wayne movie, but Bridges character was so believable, you could almost smell him!

One of my all-time favorites, but that movie really belongs to Slim Pickens and Clifton James.

True Grit is my favorite John Wayne movie, but it's John Wayne being John Wayne.

After reading the book "True Grit", you'll realize that Bridges did a much better job portraying Rooster Cogburn as depicted in the original story.

Hell or High Water is a good movie and Jeff Bridges does play a good part in it.
I do like most of his movies and I think he is pretty versatile with the roles he plays!

Bad Company is another fairly decent Western from Jeff Bridges early career. Available on Prime.

I prefer his Rooster Cogburn over John Wayne's.

Buck Taylor ?

I was going to ask who’s his Daddy?
But you already know who!

Thunderbolt and Lightfoot was a decent 70s action flick with a young JB and Clint acting and looking cool.

 

[Kurusu]

He sure looked like Wild Bill in "Wild Bill".

 

[Hawker800]

That would be Dub.

I just viewed "Hell or High Water" (again) and suddenly dawned on me that I really like Jeff in western roles as a old fashion Lawman. (True Grit also).

I also like Hell or High Water!

No spoilers, but the last scene with the grinding rocker pumps is maybe one of the best I've seen in any movie.

 

[THE PILGRIM]

He sure looked like Wild Bill in "Wild Bill".

How bout that Ellen Barkin?
How much does she look like Ca-Lam?

No further comment.

Pictures will tell it better.

I think it is one of those movies that one either loves or is bored by. While it is very popular now, across generations — my kids love it, too — when it first came out in 1998 it was pretty much a flop.
