Beau Bridges

“My mom is many times responsible for getting us all together, but we trade off at each other's houses. My brother and I are actors and are traveling a lot of our job.”

“And when I've been away from my family and friends, I have felt good hearing some of those old songs.”

“The one we keep pitching and there are no takers is The Fabulous Baker Boys Go To Hawaii. There don't seem to be any takers on that one!”

“And then I got into sports and gave my guitar to my brother Jeff who was just a little kid at that time.”

“Dylan, myself and my father were in a two hour movie called The Sand Kings, which started off the Outer Limits series. It was sort of the two hour pilot movie.”

“The things I enjoy most as I watch the movie are the things that came through without even thinking.”

“I like to try to make the characters I play be as human as possible.”

“But on the other hand I believe I'm a private person too, and I enjoy that aspect of my life as well.”

“And I like music, too, I like playing music.”

“Yes, I took up the guitar when I was about 14 or 15, in high school.”

“My father was my teacher. But most importantly he was a great dad.”

“I've always been interested in the history of the West, our country and particularly as it relates to the Native Americans - the original Americans.”

“We all feel really blessed to have been with my dad for these 85 years.”

“I got five kids, and my oldest is a documentary film maker and camera man, and still photographer.”

“Some of my oldest friends are actors. But that's not the only place my friends come from.”

“First of all my real full name is Lloyd Vernet Bridges III.”

“Steve and I saw eye to eye on the story and I got the part, but I think in the beginning it was due to my brother's instigation. So I owe him for that.”

“My favorite Oscar story was a year my brother had been nominated, my whole family went.”

“Sure, I have a lot of friends that are actors. Just because I guess I run into a lot of actors in my work.”

“Second, this epic tale allows the audience to actually listen to the Native Americans and receive their wisdom. Spielberg conveys the respect for Native Americans that is normally lacking in Western films.”
