Harrison Ford, man. Essence of cool. He’s cooler at 79 than any of us have ever been.
It’s really sad to think only 2 of them are still going :/
It’s amazing that this picture was taken 45 years ago and yet any of those people could walk out of the photo in the clothes they are wearing and look perfectly normal today (more or less).
Where as if someone from 1932 (45 years before 1977) had showed up in the world of the Star Wars cast wearing their era’s fashions, they would look like they were headed to a Halloween party.
Kenny Baker was the real star of the show here. Star Wars wouldn’t have been Star Wars without his wobbling inside a metal can skills. We’ll not see talent like that again in our lifetimes.
