Much of the world became acquainted with Matthew Broderick through his iconic role as Ferris Bueller. Robin Williams was, of course, the alien Mork. And America recognized Jean Stapleton as All In The Family‘s Edith Bunker. But I was a child of the ’80s. I’d been born too late to watch Mork and Edith on primetime TV, and Ferris Bueller was definitely taboo for a preschooler. Instead, I was introduced to Broderick, Williams, Stapleton and a slew of other Hollywood A-Listers through a different outlet: Shelley Duvall’s Faerie Tale Theatre.... read more

Movie: The Big Lebowski Actor: Jeff Bridges If you truly loved your kidnapped trophy wife, would you really ask a guy like Jeff “The Dude” Lebowski to deliver ransom money to her captors? Sure, he’s got plenty of time on his hands—enough to while away the days chasing down a stolen rug, at least—but he can hardly get himself dressed in the morning, chugs White Russians like it’s his job (incidentally, he doesn’t have a real one) and hangs around with a bunch of emotionally unstable bowling enthusiasts. Any mission you set him off on seems bound to fail. And... read more

In Paste‘s review of Crazy Heart, Chris Willman concludes his analysis with this note about the movie’s star: “Let’s be thankful we still live in the real universe where Jeff Bridges is one of our very best major actors and, as a cherry on top of that, arguably our most likeable.” Indeed, Bridges, whose never won an Oscar despite multiple nominations in his lengthy career, may have his best chance this year in the Best Actor category for Crazy Heart. But what else has he starred in over the years? More than you might remember. Click through our “Many Faces... read more

Release Date: Dec. 16 Director: Scott Cooper Writer: Thomas Cobb (novel), Cooper (screenplay) Starring: Jeff Bridges, Maggie Gyllenhaal Cinematographer: Barry Markowitz Studio: Fox Searchlight Pictures Jeff Bridges’ performance as country singer Bad Blake in Crazy Heart arrives with “preordained best actor frontrunner” written all over it, thanks to the pundits whose business it is to phone the two or three Academy members they know every five minutes and keep us abreast of the shifting breezes in Bel Air. This kind of attention is both blessing and curse: Blessing in that it’ll actually draw a significant audience to a modest “music... read more

Jon Ronson knows his way around weird. The author and documentary filmmaker has spent his career tracking down some of the most wildly weird people on the planet to bring their stories to us normal folk. His bestseller, Them: Adventures with Extremists, chronicled the tales of wannabe global dominators like Islamic fundamentalists and neo-Nazi Ku Klux Klansmen. But it’s his book, The Men Who Stare at Goats, that’s putting his name on the map—in part thanks to George Clooney. The book, about the secret army unit of soldiers with psychic power called the First Earth Battalion, was just made into... read more
