The movie Under My Skin is mediocre at best. The actress Michele Presle has a striking resemblane to Ida Lupino. Garfield was a little too heavy to play a jockey....

Karen, remember when I was trying to get a copy of Under My Skin last year. It was the only JG film I didn't have a copy of, and it hadn't been on tv for years! I finally got a copy, and watched it for the first time in 30 years. I thought it was filmed in Europe, it has a great feel to it, but then I read the camera crew went there and filmed without the actors. JG is great(as usual) and he has a lot of chemistry with the actor Orly Lindgren who played his son. I also like the scene when he is drunk talking to Michelle Presle and says "don't lower your standards"!

Still is Rocky, he is still around! Though he was just 87 in July and is getting a little fragile. My dad is his younger brother! If you go on my facebook I have a few pictures of him.

Hi Karen, I loved Rich Man, Poor Man. I fell in love with Nick Nolte!
I just got a book out of the library on Sugar Ray Robinson, who fought my Uncle Jake 6 times. Anyway, my uncle's wife, Vicki, ( he was married 6 times, but he had 3 children with her, and she was the love of his life) was very beautiful and looked like Lana Turner. In the book it said she fell in love with my uncle because he reminded her of John Garfield! I can't verify this because she died 2 years ago!

Speaking of Susan Blakely, did you ever see her in THE LORDS Of FLATBUSH? She was so young. So many stars came out of that film. They included Sylvester Stallone, Henry Winkler and Perry King....
If you haven't seen this film and you live in the nyc area especially Brooklyn, I highly suggest it as a nice film to see........
The soundtrack is great if you like 50s music...... It was made in the early 1970s.......

Rocky, I remember seeing that Frances Farmer movie a long time ago. I vaguely remember a scene where the film showed the scene from Flowing Gold where Frances falls in the mud, and the actor playing JG bails her out. I don't know who played JG. I have to go, Mad Men is on now. Does anyone else watch it? I love it!

Just ordered the Postman Always Rings Twice dvd that includes as a special feature the one hour John Garfield biography.
Without providing any spoiler information, what can I expect from this program....and might there be any other type of tribute program available?
