This Week’s Countdown: Best Onscreen ‘Staches

The Mo-vember episode of the Studio 35 Show got us thinking ‘staches. What are the best onscreen mustaches? We chose our 10 favorites. Which big, hairy faces did we miss?

 10. Charles Bronson

Hard saying which set of whiskers is more impressive, Charles Bronson’s:

Charles-BRONSON

 

 

 

 

 

 

Or Tom Hardy in the title role for the film Bronson, so we’ll call it a tie:

9. Yosemite Sam

Sure, Snidely Whiplash was impressive, but when it comes to mustachioed animated gentlemen, we like the bold statement made by Sam.

8. Wilford Brimley

Our favorite cantankerous man with a mustache, Brimley and his whiskers have been making the world safe for oatmeal and extra terrestrials for generations.

7. Robert Redford

You forget how handsome the Seventies could be until you gander at the young Redford, who can even make an unruly mo’ look good.

Can’t list famous mustaches without this hirsute Eighties PI.

4. Burt Reynolds

Let’s be honest, the entire Eighties boom in mustaches is due to Tom Selleck and this man. Thank you?

3. The Cast of Tombstone

More facial hair per square screen inch, Tombstone makes other films seem positively unmanly.

2. Ron Burgundy

This mustache escalated quickly. With a mustache like this, you have to keep your head on a swivel. It stings the nostrils.

1. Sam Elliott

Yes, he made the countdown twice! He’s the  most impressive part of the Stache Pack that makes up the cast of Tombstone, but the manliness that is Sam Elliot’s facial hair cannot be adequately praised with only one slot on this countdown! It’d be very undude of us.
