my favorite mustaches

Today’s man seems to embrace a smooth cheek achieved with a Gillette razor, but where have all the whiskers gone? I’ve seen men with beards, the ones with stubble, some will sport a goatee, others maybe try lamb chops or even a van dyke, but what happened to the mustache? There is nothing more impressive than a guy sporting a bushy, thick, shaggy mustache. These are my five favorite actors who show off an incredibly hairy upper lip.

5. Dabney Coleman
I have never seen him without a mustache; I’m pretty sure he was born with one. You may have seen Dabney Coleman’s mustache in from 9 to 5 with Dolly Parton, Lily Tomlin and Jane Fonda. She reappeared when she co-starred with Tom Hanks in The man with a red shoe and years later when meeting again with Hanks in You’ve got mail. My first encounter with his whiskey lip was in Cloak and dagger, where Dabney and his mustache play two roles in the film. The first is Colonel Osbourne, the rather absent father of main character Davey (Y.’s Henry Thomas), and the second as Davey’s imaginary friend, super-spy Jack Flack. The plot involves the murder of a federal agent, a video game (from which the film is named after him), and Davey’s relationship with his imaginary hero/real-life father. The real star though is the mustache – Coleman has a tried and true look and I’m glad he kept it for so many years.

4. Burt Reynolds
He’s been sporting the ‘stache since the ’70s and it’s still going strong. Of smokey and the bandit Y cannonball raceto more recent movies like boogie nights, Mystery, Alaska Y dukes of dangerthe mustache has as much presence as the man who wears it.

In smokey and the banditReynolds’ job, as Bandit, is to dissuade the police from investigating the contents of Cledus’s (Jerry Reed) big truck. The two head to Texarkana to illegally load up a half-full of beer and bring it back across state lines. Along the way, Bandit picks up the runaway bride, Carrie (Sally Field). In pursuit of the Bandit is Sheriff Buford T Justice (Jackie Gleason), who was slighted when Carrie was left without her child.

Whatever the role, Burt Reynolds never disappoints when it comes to putting his best face forward, especially if his mustache is involved.

3.Kevin Kline
I fell in love with Kevin Kline when I saw him on french kiss. It may have been the mustache or it could be that he is so dreamy. While Kate (Meg Ryan) flies to France to win back the affections of her ex-fiancée, she runs into Luc (Kevin Kline). Luc has a sordid past and is secretly using Kate to smuggle diamonds into the country. He helps Kate in her attempt to reunite with her lost love, but he’s really just trying to get her jewelry back. Or is it him?

In his most recent films he doesn’t have a mustache, but if you long to be captivated by his old blurry face, I suggest you check him out. A fish named Wanda, silver, the january man or the slightly darker Pirates of Penzance.

2. John Ratzenberger
He is also known as Cliff Clavin, the lovable postman from Health. Cliff is always found sitting at the end of the bar in his work uniform, drinking a pitcher of beer with his good friend Norm. Cliff is lonely, middle-aged, and still living with his mother, making him the target of many jokes, mainly from Carla, the small and fused waitress. His “bar know-it-all” comments always keep him coming back for more, beginning with “it’s a little known fact…” His portrayal of the famous postman has even made its way into other TV series like at, san elsewhere, The Simpsons Y phrases.

Although John’s mustache doesn’t appear on screen in many movies or TV shows, when he lends his voice to family favorites like life of a bug‘s PT Flea, Hamm the piggy in toy storyconstruction foreman tom de Up, and just about every other Disney Pixar movie that’s ever come out, you instantly think of that face and of course that mustache. He has even made it into an episode of Magnum, PI. starring alongside my number one favorite mustache.

1. Tom Sellek
He has the epitome of the perfect mustache. She has proudly displayed it in everything from magnum ip., quigley down, Three men and a baby and (my personal recommendation) the Jesse Stone movies. There are eight movies in the made-for-TV series, based on the Robert Parker book series: Cold Stone, night passage, death in paradise, sea ​​change, thin ice, No regrets, Lost Innocents Y Benefit of the doubt. Selleck plays a former big-city cop with a drinking problem who has accepted the job of chief of police in a small New England town called Paradise. Citizens are being killed and there is strong pressure and scrutiny from the council to deal with the matter and restore peace and tourism. It’s up to Jesse to find the culprits. As soon as you see one of these movies, you’ll be hooked!

I’ve seen Tom Selleck a few times without his iconic stash and he just seems so annoying and unnatural. Thank goodness he normally sticks to the legendary appearance of him, like in his current TV show. Blue blood.

I’d like to give an honorable mention to a few other famous lip-warmer wearers: Charlie Chaplin, Clark Gable, Wilford Brimley, Groucho Marx, and of course, there’s no doubt the striking facial follicles of the perfect cowboy, Sam Elliot.

I understand that it may be impossible for some men to grow an impressive mustache like Tom Selleck’s, but those who can should. I implore men with the gift of facial hair to grow a mustache, not a beard, or a goatee, or a van dyke, forget lamb chops and that five o’clock grim stubble, just look the moustache.
