The Man Behind the Voice: Sam Elliott and His Life in Hollywood

A Mustache Man

One of Sam’s distinctive features, other than his voice, is no doubt his mustache. He had to shave it off for a few movies. But during the 1960s and the 70s, he was practically never = seen without his thick and impressive stache. In 2015, Sam was one of the inaugural inductees in the International Mustache Hall of Fame. Yeah, there is such a thing!

Sam Elliott’s mustache doesn’t appear in every Sam Elliott movie. The 74-year-old enjoyed a career that spanned nearly five decades, and in that time, his stache has gained a cult-like status in Hollywood. It’s what every man has in mind when he starts a ‘Movember’ stache-growing mission. And when you think of it, his voice and mustache go together perfectly.
