    My daughter shares a b'day w/ Kris; she's 25 today. He's such a great actor/singer. My favorite KK song is Why Me Lord. My favorite KK films are Convoy, A Star Is Born & Alice Doesn't Live Here Anymore.

    The best movie he was ever in was "Pat Garrett and Billy the Kid" 1973 . This was a great movie with Kris Kristofferson , Bob Dylan , James Coburn, Jason Robards and Slim Pickens . Why is this never mentioned ? Also one of the best movie soundtracks ever . " Knocking on Heavens Door "
