As if you needed another reason to love the seminal actor of such cinematographic behemoths like The Godfather, The Godfather Part II and Apocalypse Now... well, here are 5 more reasons we dig Robert Duvall, whom is promoting an independent drama “Get Low,” which opens in limited release on Friday.

1) He looks pretty bitchin with a beard (as if there was any doubt)!

2) He makes the bushy beard look natural... he accomplished this with the help of great makeup artists... the big beard above is actually fake (taking 45 minutes to an hour a day to apply), but attached to his own beard which was used later in the movie.

3) He has a "guy from Italy" who makes him his beards... freaking awesome... the lap of luxury, or should we say chin.

You can check out a nice Q&A with the man himself in the Wall Street Journal, here:
