Re: Jeff Bridges in The Old Man

I don't know how Emily/Angela managed a job with Harper.    I thought maybe Harper knew her identity but maybe not.

 

 

Raymond is a real piece of work.  I wouldn't trust him as far as I could throw him and he seems to know Angela's real identity.

 

I also thought the actor (Bill Heck) who plays Chase as a young man was actually the RL son of Jeff Bridges but he is not-they did a great job casting him as the younger Chase.

ImDB says Amy Brenneman only in 2 episodes, so that would be episode #2 and #3.  If true, we won't see her again.  

 

I was surprised that the assistant director's own assistant, Angela, appears to be Emily!!! 


 

 

@MamaWick 

That would make my hunch of what's in the trunk make more sense if it were true. 


Spoiler
I was talking about AMy and it you watch the previews at the end of episode 2 she is alive and is with him as he travels.  Not sure for how long.

Re: Jeff Bridges in The Old Man

DH and I didn't get into the show until episode 2 and I figured we'd be able to figure out what happened in episode 1 as the show goes on but we can't quite put it all together.  On demand has only episodes 2 and 3 and we dont have hulu. Can someone please explain the plot of this show and what happened in episode 1?

thanks!!

Re: Jeff Bridges in The Old Man

My hubby and I have watched all three episodes and love this show.  Love all of the actors in it too.   When each episode was over, we both looked at each other and said, "That's a ****** good show!" We especially love the twists and surprises.

 

Jeff Bridges is a great actor.

I agree.  He has Bridges' speech patterns and mannerisms down pat.

Re: Jeff Bridges in The Old Man

 

I love Jeff Bridges and this series is very good...I'm so happy that it has been picked up for a 2nd season!

 

Just two of my favorite movies of his that come to mind as I post this are "The Mirror Has Two Faces" with Barbra Streisand and "Crazy Hearts" with Maggie Gyllenthaal.

 

He just seems to be so at ease with his acting and it just comes so naturally for him.
