Careers Take Off At Any Age

This came up in a group chat. One person asked if it were possible for a career to take off later in age. I said yes, yes it could.

In Hollywood, age doesn't matter as much as talent. I got curious and decided to go off googling!

Stan Lee, 39

Even though Stan Lee started working with comic books since he was just 17 years old, it took him over twenty years to achieve success. He began working for a company called Timely Publications as an assistant and slowly rose up the ranks until he published his first comic book in 1961 – Lee was 39 at the time.

Alan Rickman, 42

Alan Rickman, the famous actor who played Professor Snape in the Harry Potter series, used to be a graphic designer and even had his own studio. But at the age of 26, he started attending the Royal Academy of Dramatic Art with hopes of becoming an actor. However, he only achieved his first major role in 1988, when he got the role of Hans Gruber in the movie Die Hard – Rickman was 42 at the time. After the movie, Rickman’s acting career quickly took off and he landed the role of Severus Snape in 2001, at the age of 55.

Kathy Bates, 42

Kathy Bates worked steadily both on stage and on screen early in her life, but it was only when she was cast in the thriller “Misery” at age 42 did she gained prominence as one of the most impressive actors in her generation. Winning the Academy Award for Best Actress, Bates’ career took off, landing her the role of Molly Brown in “Titanic,” Libby Holden in “Primary Colors,” and Miss Hannigan in Disney’s remake of “Annie,” as well as remarkable turns on television series “Six Feet Under,” “Two and a Half Men,” and “Harry’s Law.” Bates was also cast as one of the co-stars of the third season of “American Horror Story.”

Martha Stewart, 41

Before the beginning of her career as an entrepreneur and media personality, Martha Stewart was working as a stockbroker in Wall Street. However, she quit to start a catering business and eventually published her first cookbook in 1982 at the age of 41.

Morgan Freeman, 50

Even though Morgan Freeman loved acting since he was young, instead of becoming an actor, he joined the Air Force after finishing school. However, the actor never gave up on his dream and got his first major role in the movie "Street Smart" at age 50.

Jane Lynch, 49

After many small roles in various different films, Jane Lynch got her first major role in the TV series "Glee" when she was 49.

Samuel L. Jackson, 46

Samuel L. Jackson was interested in drama since his early 20’s but only achieved worldwide success at age 46, for his role of Jules Winnfield in Quentin Tarantino’s 1994 hit "Pulp Fiction".

Christoph Waltz, 53

This Austrian-German actor only achieved international success at the age of 53 for his role of Col. Hans Landa in the 2009 movie "Inglorious Basterds".

Viola Davis, 43

Even though Viola Davis had many small roles in different movies before, her first big break only happened in 2008, when she got a role in the movie "Doubt" at the age of 43.

Julia Childs, 50

Julia Child, known by many for her TV show and cookbooks, wasn’t initially even that good at cooking. She attended the Cordon Bleu cooking school in 1948 and wrote her first book in 1961 at the age of 50.

Kathryn Joosten, 60

Kathryn Joosten joined her community theater when she was 42. Before that, she used to work as a psychiatric nurse. The actress eventually landed the role in “The West Wing” at the age of 60.

Ray Kroc, 52

Raymond Albert Kroc was an American businessman. He purchased the fast food company McDonald's in 1961 from the McDonald brothers and was its CEO from 1967 to 1973. Kroc is credited with the global expansion of McDonald's, turning it into the most successful fast food corporation in the world by revenue.

Billy Bob Thornton, 41

Even though Billy Bob Thornton struggled with his acting career in the 1980s, it all changed when the actor wrote, directed and starred in the movie "Sling Blade" in 1996 – he was 41 at the time.

Steve Carell, 43

Believe it or not, The Office was Steve Carell’s first big break – the actor was 43 years old at the time.

Regis Philbin, 57

Regis Philbin started out as an NBC page and worked on "The Joey Bishop Show," but he was never widely known.

That changed in 1988 when the morning show Philbin was working on became the nationally syndicated "Live with Regis and Kathie Lee." After almost 20 years of working on TV, Philbin's chemistry with Kathie Lee made the show a success and gave him national exposure.

At 57, it was the first time the name Regis was in the nation's lexicon. He's been a part of pop culture ever since, most notably for hosting the game show "Who Wants To Be A Millionaire?"

Lucille Ball, 40

Lucille Ball was a pioneer for both female leads and for comedy after creating one of the most beloved sitcoms of all time, "I Love Lucy" in 1951.

However, she didn't become Lucy Ricardo until she was 40.

Before "I Love Lucy," Ball went from role to role in films. However, once television became a prominent medium she (along with her husband and co-star Desi Arnaz) tried to sell her vaudeville act to networks. That act became the prototype for "I Love Lucy."

Bea Arthur, 47

It wasn’t until Bea Arthur was in her forties that she landed on the map. Her portrayal of the acerbic Vera Charles opposite Angela Lansbury in the original Broadway production of “Mame” won her a Tony Award. She became more successful as she aged, gaining acclaim for her portrayal of Maude Findlay on “All in the Family,” and later, “Maude.” In addition, Arthur went on to score many Emmy Award nominations for her work on “The Golden Girls.”

Colonel Sanders, 62

Throughout his career, Colonel Sanders tried many professions: he was a fireman, a steam engine stoker, an insurance salesman and even tried practicing law. He eventually opened his own roadside restaurant in the 1930s and opened the first franchise restaurant in 1952 – he was 62 at the time.

Michael Emerson, 46

Before Michael Emerson became an Emmy Award-winning star, he took retail jobs and worked as a freelance illustrator in New York City. Discouraged, Emerson and his wife moved to Florida, where he appeared in local productions around the state. Emerson landed on the map with his electrifying performance as a serial killer on “The Practice,” which earned him his first Emmy Award. Emerson has taken home more Emmy Awards for his work on the popular thriller “Lost.”

--

There are so many more. Anyone's career can take off suddenly, not just in Hollywood, but elsewhere too.

Don't let age be the limitation of your life.

Bad Santa 2 (2016)

"'Cos I'm all about the birth of Christmas. You know, the, uh, wise guys kicked 'em out of the hotel... The ejaculate conception, and then the drummer that didn't have shit to give 'em. And some perfume and then King Midas, or one of them, threatened to cut the kid in half, turn him into gold. But see, uh, it's a heavy deal for me. Pretty damn heavy."

[naranofficial]

(со страницы https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MJ_4U6P0lkA)

[ulrichgebert]

Politmärchen aus der guten alten Zeit vor all diesen Trumps und Underwoods, als amerikanischer Wahlkampf mit Herz und Anstand geführt wurde und die Kandidaten noch etwas bewegen wollten. Obwohl es wahrscheinlich gar nicht so gemeint war. Der wieder einmal ganz köstliche John Travolta und Emma Thompson glänzen als Clinton-Doppelgänger. Travolta hätten sie aufstellen sollen, dann wäre alles besser geworden!

[eleanoroliphant]

* So maybe there is no such thing as a Christmas miracle, or whatever. But I've worn the suit enough to know a perfect Christmas gift when I see one. And like the kid says, the best gifts are always a surprise. So if a happy ending is staring at you right in the fucking face, then just say, "All right, I guess I'll take it."

BAD SANTA 2 (2016) Grade: D+

The shock value is gone from the first one. Billy Bob still had some good lines, but everyone else had nothing good to work with. The plot and sub-plots are weak at best. Skip it.

The Bryan Awards - The Best of the Last Decade (The 2010s)

With only two weeks left in the decade, I took a thorough look back at the last ten Bryan Awards (with the last nine of them being recorded as annual podcasts for WCRS FM), and picked the Best of the Best since the 2010 Bryan Awards (or programs that aired since January 1, 2010, and airing up until the cut-off for this September’s Bryan Awards, which was May 31, which would eliminate the likes of Mrs. Fletcher, Season 2 of Big Little Lies, plus newbies like On Becoming A God in Central Florida, Perfect Harmony, the 2019 FIFA Women’s World Cup, and this week’s A Christmas Carol).

Here are the Guidelines Chosen for both this and the Silver Garbage Awards Worst of the Decade: - Eligibility Period is January 1, 2010 to May 31, 2019. - Glee is being entered for New Series of the Decade, because it won the 2010 Bryan Award in that race, despite it debuted in 2009. - Younger Acting will be merged through the genres: Daytime, Comedy, Drama, and Limited Series.  And if an actor turned 26 doesn't really matter, as long as 50% of their nominations were before they were 26. - Big Little Lies (Season 1), Orange Is the New Black, and Downton Abbey are Dramas.  Shameless is a Comedy.  True Detective is a Longform, as is American Horror Story, and ALL seasons will be lumped into one for Anthology Stories. - Sherlock and Sharknado are being entered for ALL of their movies, ditto for Black Mirror episodes, in the Longform races. - There will be separate Lead and Supporting Acting races for Comedy and Drama Bryan Awards, but NOT for Silver Garbage. Apologies for the Length of this Post, but without further ado...

Bad movie I have Bad Santa 2 2016

Bad Santa 2

(Mark Waters, 2016)

This movie is crass as all hell. As someone who has not seen the original movie in a good decade or so, and has a memory like a sieve it's hard to compare the films in terms of which has the more potentially unpleasant humour in it, but I can say wholeheartedly that Bad Santa 2 is not for anyone who believes in political correctness, or is even moderately easily offended.

It's a shame that the core of the film is so potentially alienating because as was the case with the first film there really is plenty to love here. Billy Bob Thornton continues to prove his class. As a guy so regularly relegated to creating unforgettable supporting parts in other peoples movies he shows again here just how good he can be when given the lead. Every world weary or hateful rant that comes out of his mouth feels 100% authentic, there's never a phony moment in the movie from him, and so sort of magnetic is his charm, that this guy is pretty easy to root for no matter who he's insulting. 

Having him be supported by someone as similarly effortless as Kathy Bates is only ever going to be a good thing. She's a performer who regularly appears in stuff it would be easy to term beneath her, but there's no hint of laziness in anything that she does here.

Beyond that the central relationships around which the movie builds itself, the dual mother-son and father-son like relations are wonderfully developed, and end up being genuinely moving. There are too many movies made every year in complete 100% earnest that can't create characters and relationships this effective, and it's a damn shame that a film that feels like it makes the effort and succeeds in 100% earning a little emotion at its conclusion should be buried beneath and overshadowed by the crudity of the rest of the film.

If that doesn't do it for you than the prospect of Christina Hendricks talking dirty might. Either way, there's plenty to love here if you can get past the plenty there is to hate.
