Eldergays, tell me about Sam Elliott

I understand he is seminal to the Eldergays experience.

Who would be his equivalent today?

Sam Elliott was beloved by my female relatives. I could see the appeal but holy crap the middle aged ladies went nuts for him. I think it was his natural masculinity. Some women don't like the "sensitive" type. (and considering some of my relationships, maybe that isn't such a bad idea).

by Anonymousreply 1October 26, 2017 2:51 AM

Today's equivalent - oh maybe Christopher Meloni. He's just so fucking hot and attractive it doesn't really matter what he's in. Kyle Chandler is the same way for me. BTW, I'm R1 and I can't even remember the name of one Sam Elliott movie. I just remember he was hot.

Road House came out in 1989. A girlfriend (friend only) took me for my 65th birthday because we are both HUGE Patrick Swayze fans. I own every Patrick Swayze film on VHS, (I actually cleaned the store Suncoast, which has since closed, out—buying every Swayze movie they offered, plus some posters). Anyways, Sam Elliot! Whoa, this man is smoldering in this film. The salt and pepper flowing locks? Definitely check out Road House for SAM ELLIOT.

R3, and your are 98? Not trying to offend, just wondering if you were 65 in 1989 or if either of that age or year was a typo.

I'm not sure I ever saw one of Sam Elliott's movies. I was in college when "The Lifeguard" came out in the mid-70s, but I never saw it, even on TV or tape at a later date. I remember both women and gay men talking about how attractive he was in it, though.

I will preface this story by saying, yes, I am old.

Back when I was in 6th grade or so, HBO was a very fancy thing only a few households had. They only ran programming from say 4:00pm to midnight. If you were a subscriber you got a little square magazine every month to tell you what was on, since the TV Guide didn't list it yet.

For some reason, they would show "Lifeguard" constantly. Probably for little gay boys like me. Since this pre-dated the commonality of VCRs, I would scour the HBO book every month, so I could be sure to watch it every time it was on. Oddly enough, I also watched "SOB" and "Serial" about 100 times each because I thought they were dirty.

We did wind up getting a Betamax VCR a few months later (it was a giant thing with a wired remote you needed a degree in trig to program) and the first thing I recorded was "Lifeguard." MY mothre thought I liked it becuase there was a quick flash of boobs in it, which you could do in a PG movie back then.

It is entirely possible Sam Elliott is the first man I ever masturbated to.

R35, if you are as old as you say you were in R3, you'd have been born in the 20's. That means you were in 6th grade before WW II. I'm old myself and I was out of graduate school and working as a professional by the time HBO was around. So you may want to tack about 30 years on to your birth year.

Christ what perfect casting... all 3 are hairy, hairy men, each seems to be naturally, casually masculine. There are scenes with them riding horses and they seem to have done that all of their lives.

It's based on a Louis L'Amour novel. I've caught it several times on TV. Of course, Katherine Ross co-stars.
