This is the coolest man I have ever heard of. Acting at 90 years old! I can't believe he is able to handle acting a 50 year old man while being in his age and health. I mean, I'm sure he's healthy enough since he is keeping up his acting career, but still, he's 90! I am also a big fan of Field of Dreams, and I'm very happy for him that he has been able to pick up his acting career again after taking care of his family for awhile.
