I have enjoyed his work over the years.  Too bad  those who need to hear his words, will not listen.

Can't access YouTube from work    >:( so I'll check this out later. 

I'll just say I admire this man greatly.  A humanitarian and superb actor.

Ain't that the truth. I don't think I've ever seen him look young and I know I've been watching him in movies about 25-30 years now. IMO, "The Shawshank Redemption" is the best movie he was ever in.

I would have to go with "Unforgiven".  He looks pretty young in that Electric Company skit.  But that was about 35 or 40 years ago.

He could marry anybody because he was God.

Anyway, he still comes back regularly to Mississippi because he gets homesick. I think he has a home there.

He does. He had a pretty bad car accident going home to Mississippi last year.

I think it was 2008, but the strangest thing to me about that was that he was driving a '97 Maxima.

Still a great actor. His private life does not concern me...

Isn't that the truth.  Quality acting.

Post by: ricky023 on April 13, 2011, 04:13:11 PM
Yes to both BUT, shouldn't we be concerned about how he will be percieved by young kids. If they find out and one of our kids in the family wanted to marry a sister or cousin how would you feel then? I just wonder. RTR!


Title: Re: Morgan freeman
Post by: Crimson Phoenix on April 13, 2011, 04:19:40 PM
True...he's not a great role model but still a great actor.  

Who would want to boycott Morgan Freeman's acting because he fell in love with a young girl (step granddaughter...not incest).  Centuries ago, as well as now, old men (even Kings) have married young girls and discarded them once they passed the age of about 25.  ;)    


Truthfully, I frown on him discarding his older wife...but it's his life, and he will suffer the consequences if things aren't right.
