Legendary actor Lloyd Bridges, who passed away on March 10, 1998, had a very successful career spanning six decades, with notable roles in television and movies such as Sea Hunt, High Noon, and Airplane! However, aside from his on-screen achievements, the late actor also left priceless knowledge for his two sons, who have continued his legacy in Hollywood as they are also successful actors in their own right.
In a recent interview, one of his sons, Beau Bridges, opened up about the most valuable advice his late dad gave him at the beginning of his career, one that has shaped his approach to managing his business over the years.

During a recent attendance at the Beverly Hills Film Festival, which started on Tuesday, April 1, Beau shared heartfelt reflections on the valuable lessons he learned from his late father. The 83-year-old, who was accompanied by his youngest son, Ezekiel Bridges, to promote their new collaborative film, Welcome to Klyde’s Kitchen, revealed that his father taught him the importance of treating others with respect.
He attributed the lesson to being one of the keystones of his life, since his dad always made it a top goal to treat others with respect and kindness, an act that had a long-lasting effect on his personal and professional life.
Lloyd Bridges’s son has continued to live up to his legacy
Over the years, the Grammy Award-winning actor has embraced his father’s knowledge and set out to preserve the tradition by ensuring his own children adopt the same morals.
Beau’s son, Ezekiel, attested to this and shared that his father had taught him the principles, even though it came with some modern adjustments. He revealed that the invaluable piece of advice today does not only border on personal development but also a tremendous appreciation of nature and dedication to one’s work from a wider angle.
