You have that Frank Capra kind of side to it and the characters are really well drawn, so I think everybody tried their best to stay faithful to the script.

More quotes by Jeff Bridges
Movies are like magic tricks.
Jeff Bridges
Life's picking up speed.
Jeff Bridges
He [Michael Cimino] wasn't the typical filmmaker. I don't know if he had more in him, he certainly had a lot of scripts. I know he wrote a hell of a lot.
Jeff Bridges
As a kid, you want to be liked for who you are. You don't want to be liked for who your parents are. You don't want to get a job because of who your parents are. You want to do it on your own, with your own gifts and your own value. So, I decided to spare my kids that and not be as pro-active as my dad was.
Jeff Bridges
Sometimes you'll have a movie that you're very proud of and you think it transcended all of your expectations but it doesn't come out at the right time. I have done movies that have never been released. That can be depressing.
Jeff Bridges
Your part can be the king, but unless people are treating you like royalty, you ain't no king, man.
Jeff Bridges
I'm a chairperson for 'No Kid Hungry', a campaign for poor American children.
Jeff Bridges
Myths are wonderful - they really tell the stories that connect all of us and teach us so much.
Jeff Bridges
I confessed to Mike [Cimino] a couple of days before we shot. I was like, What am I doing here, Mike? And Mike just looked at me, in that very directorial manor, took a long pause, and he said, You know the game tag? And I said, Yeah. And he said, Well, you're it. That was some of the best direction I think I've ever received.
Jeff Bridges
I think there's a real joy in going to see movies when you discover them yourself.
Jeff Bridges
You've got to take care of yourself on the path, not just when you cross the goal line, because don't forget, wherever you are, that's the goal line.
Jeff Bridges
Execution is everything.
Jeff Bridges
I hate it when there's a good movie, someone overhypes it and I'm disappointed that I don't like it more.
Jeff Bridges
I don't have one movie that is my favorite, I have about 25-30 favorites.
Jeff Bridges
I'm kind of an idea guy.
Jeff Bridges
There's a bit of the kid in me.
Jeff Bridges
Normally, after a movie, you know, you don't want to get up and do another one right away. That kind of pretend muscle or whatever you use making movies is kind of, you know, spent. And you have other things to do.
Jeff Bridges
I kind of quit surfing when I got out of high school, but then a few years ago I started to take it up again. I'm not an expert by any means, but it's so wonderful to get out in the ocean and get a different perspective on things.
Jeff Bridges
One of my favorite artists is Tom Waits, whom most people think of as a wonderful singer-songwriter and a great poet. I certainly think of him that way, but I also know him as a terrific actor. You know, that persona that he puts on when he's doing his music comes from being an actor, figuring out a persona.
Jeff Bridges
You know, I thought we could use a good myth about technology to help guide us through these particular modern waters right now.
Jeff Bridges
