His credits extend from such landmark 1970s efforts as Five Easy Pieces (1971) and Alice Doesn't Live Here Anymore (1974) to such 1990s potboilers as Friday the 13th Pt. IX: Jason Goes to Hell (1993). Bush has also twice essayed the role of Vernon Presley, first in the 1988 TV movie Elvis and Me, then in the short-lived weekly series Elvis (1990).
