RIP Wilford Brimley

[nelsonmuntz]

He was only 85? That makes him 49 in The Natural. I thought he was at least 60 in that movie. That also means he was credible as a 70 year old in Cocoon when he was 50. Tip of the hat on a great career, and to living as long as he did given how he looked in the mid 1980s.

I always thought he had serious diabetes, so surprised he made it that far.

I will have some Quaker Oats in his honor. RIP

I loved him in Absence of Malice. "I'm gonna have somebody's ass in my briefcase!"

Here he is in The Waltons. He's about 43 in this picture.
