Bart was the Bear in “The Clan of the Cave Bear”, the Bear in “The Edge” and the Bear in “The Bear”.
Not a tremendous amount of range, but he had that one type of role down pat.
And don’t forget The Great Outdoors, where if I remember correctly, he gets the hair on his butt cheeks shot off.
He was also in White Fang and Walking Thunder (with John Denver), among others. He sure got around those studios back in the day!
Bart was the go-to bear in many movies. I wouldn’t doubt that some screenwriters specifically wrote scenes with him in mind.
Imo, he totally deserved a special award for “The Edge”. As good as the script was, as good as Alec Baldwin and Anthony Hopkins were… without Bart it would not have been as heart pumping intense.
Loved White Fang, but man Ive grown into such a sensitive old man I can't handle the dog fighting scene when White Fang almost gets killed by the bulldog, then again I don't think I can take any animal death scenes in movies anymore. Loved Bart in the Great Outdoors though as the Bald Bear
It feels like almost no wilderness or nature movie of the 80s or 90s was complete without him!
Nothing says 80’s like “Men’s short shorts” with a sweater zip up!

This big daddy was the:
Great Outdoors Bear
Homeward Bound Bear
12 Monkeys Bear
And Legend of the Falls Bear!
and lot more.
Who's that animal sitting beside him?
Was he in The Edge with Baldwin and Hopkins? I remember enjoying those bear encounters though it could have been mostly fake i guess lol
Yes that’s him
Pretty sure you see both of them duke it out at the end of Legends of the Fall.
"It was a good death"
He was absolutely terrifying in “The Edge”!

Spumoni!
Poor guy was typecast, like so many in Hollywood!
Been seeing a lot of posts with bears on it lately.
Marketing for Cocaine Bear? (Note: I don’t think this is a shill post)
Nope, just saluting a film legend here, who countless actors admired and audiences loved.
Yeah. I looked at your profile for about 5 seconds after I made the comment and realized you’re absolutely a real person. Thanks for the post, it’s cool!
Love the micro-mini shorts on dude. If they were any shorter, this would need an NSFW tag
Who wears short-shorts?
What's more savage, the bear or the shorts? Legs for days
I wasn’t expecting that guy to be wearing such…tight shorts
Was he the one with the talk show?
Looks so cg
When an animal sitting on his ass is still taller than you. But what he has in size, I make up for in
