Village of the Giants

I have realized i have a little crush on Beau Bridges. It is may seem like a pretty random attraction, but don't under rate this actually very daring and impressive man.
It all started when after i caught The Landlord (1970) on cable. In it Bridges plays a rich boy whom runs away from his privileged Manhattan up town existence to buy a tenement building in the then ghetto area of Brooklyn, Park Slope. Which is funny because today Park Slope is one of the most desirable areas for young upwardly mobile couples to moving to Brooklyn. The area has pretty much been gentrified right out of most peoples budgets.
While flipping through channel watching 3 movies at a time as i usually do i struck by the irony of this plot and then by the young good looks of Mr Bridges ( as i like to call him).
damn he was hot in the 70's and yeah still kind of is. those lips, that comfortable poise, that everyman charm it really very sexy.
The next night, as if fate had demanded it Honky Tonk Highway was on. which if you have not seen is worth a look if only for the amazing art direction . each highway motel and truck stop is more amazing then the last.Again a 70's version of Bridges captivated me.
I took a lok at his credit and Bridges has almost 200 credits to his name and over a dozen awards and nomination spanning over 3 decades of work.
I recently discovered this gem....Village of Giants. Bridges is indeed stoooooopid as hell in it, but what a pretty face.
