I don't know what you mean, Don Ameche and Hugh Cronyn are in better shape than who? Villagers, you should go to MVP Gym at Brownwood and see some Villagers, or better yet, go to the Rec League Softball games, a lot Villagers are still in great shape in the 60's and 70's.

As I stated, the movie Cocoon was filmed in St. Petersburg. That pool house is on Park Street near Boca Ciega Bay in St. Pete, however the interior with the pool was shot in New Jersey.

Here's the director Rod Howard on the right and actor Wilford Brimley on the left behind the scenes of Cocoon. Great shape, Wilford Brimley was 49 years old when he made this movie.
