  Check out Starman from 1984
  Not quite as good as baker boys lebowski or country music one.
  But a worthwhile investment of time nonetheless

  He played that very well; dead in spirit, to the point that physical fear of death had no influence. A terrible state of mind performed brilliantly. He did it so well that a viewer could sense the inner void.

  My favorite Wild Bill Hickock portrayal, with Ellen Barkin as
  Calamity Jane. I feel Keith Carradine's Bill Hickock in "Deadwood"
  was respectfully adapted from Bridges' performance. Regards,

  I also like him in True Grit. The Coens seem to get the best performances out of him.

    Kudos for mentioning this movie, it's astonishing. Not only is Bridges great, but the whole cast works at the same level. A must-see for any film buff.

    I will have to.
    
    I saw him in the Iceman Cometh with Robert Ryan and was amazed by Bridges. That had to be one of his earliest performances, wow. What a great cast in that one.

  He's been good from the git go, so:
  
  The Last Picture Show
  
  Tucker
  
  The Fabulous Baker Boys
  
  are some favs, but none of those aren't well known.
