‘A Star Is Born’

Sam Elliott recently acted in A Star Is Born. The movie was directed by Bradley Cooper and it seems that the younger man made an impression on Elliott. “He’s [Cooper] super intelligent, has an incredible work ethic,” he explained. He also had good things to say about his co-star Lady Gaga: “And Stefani is equally incredible. She’s going to surprise a lot of people with her acting ability. It’s an amazing experience to be with them both.”

While his distinctive voice has given him a lot of opportunities, there were some roles that required him to tone it down. He said, “I did do a movie called Lifeguard back in 1976 with a director named Dan Petrie, who did a lot of incredible work. Every once in a while, he would tell me: ‘Let’s do it again, and this time, let’s be a little less south in the mouth.’ That’s always amused me.”
