When Hollywood veteran actor Sam Elliott wanted to move to Los Angeles to carve out a career in the film industry back in the 1960s, his father disapproved of it and instead urged him to pursue a college degree.

After snapping up many roles over the last 50 years, the 74-year-old talented actor finally had his moment. Earlier this year, Elliott got his first-ever Oscar nomination for his supporting role in Bradley Cooper’s film “A Star Is Born.”
