| Wilford Brimley, the veteran character actor with the walrus mustache whose down-home geniality seen in such films as Cocoon, The Natural and Absence of Malice endeared him to moviegoers, has died. The former blacksmith, rodeo rider and Howard Hughes bodyguard also starred in 'The China Syndrome,' and 'The Firm.' "Albert, do you REALLY think you are old enough to know what love is?" "I must be Pa. I love you, I have for a long time." | |

| I was surprised that he was "only" 85. He seemed like he'd been elderly forever. | |

Yep. Did you know he was 49 when filming started on Cocoon?? 49?!?!? When I saw that movie I thought he was ancient then. And here I sit at 49! I don't feel old enough to be in the cast of Cocoon! | |
