Actually later on there was a little seen movie with him and Sally Field called Murphy's Romance. Someone made me see it at some point and it was really good. He is old guy taking on a younger Sally Field in Jeans riding horses or some shit. He puts her no good loser ex husband/bf in his place.

Saw it. Good flick.

Another good flick is Twilight. Newman, Hackman, Sarandon and Garner.

Will have to check that. Love Newman. Before Newman kicked he had a good one with Bruce Willis and a Melanie Griffith type.

I too, most associate him with "The Rockford Files". It probably only illustrates our age. 8)

He was the leading american in this little gem. It merits watching for the racing scenes alone, well before the CGI era.

He was also in one of the famous old WW2 flicks. Can't remember which one but with Lee Marvin? Like longest day or one of those.

Never seen Grand Prix. Maybe after I finish dinner tomorrow at 430 I can check it out. Unless I have bingo.

Loved some Maverick. Hell even the movie was pretty good with Gibson playing the lead and Garner playing... the lawman.

Sleeping too much is a sign of depression.

Well, you keep whistling like that and I'll put a depression in your skull.


Kind of a guilty pleasure movie but I'm a big fan of Lemmon too.

Angel and Rollo from Sanford & Son were how I learned about riff-raff during my formative years.

:lol: I wanted to name our band in high school either Riff-Raff or Doctor Bombay. My jackass bandmates shot my ideas down and settled on Bad Connections, which we were in every way.

As a kid, I always enjoyed Raiders games when they showed the celebrity fans. Jonathan Winters & James Garner were always at the games.
