One of the greatest actors this country has ever produced. Amazing talent lived in this man. The first Method actor to make it "big" in Hollywood. Taken away from us way too soon. Many of his friends said it was the stress that the HUAC witch hunter placed on him that caused that fatal heart attack. That and seeing some of his so called friends turn their backs on him. Not good for a man with an already weak heart. RIP Mr.Garfield you were simply the BEST! Oh, and damn you HUAC monsters!
John Garfield one of America's greatest actors. An incredibly gifted performer who has been so vastly underrated. Thank goodness at least some of his films are on DVD and now maybe he will get the recognition he so rightly deserves. Along with Bogart, Clift, Brando, Dean and all the others! Great video ! Thanks for posting. RIP JOHN you were the best!
@billyfuryfan64 I could not agree with more just watch No one lives forever very cool dude in that movie.He tragically he died very young only 39 years of age a great loss and one of his daughters died at the young age of 7 A very sad ending to a fine fine actor ..............

I thought it was Julius Jacob. And that's why his friends called him "Julie."
But he'd tell us it doesn't matter. Sure.

As Garfield would say, "Sure."
Nobody alive before or since could say that single word like he could.
