  • James Garner is the only actor I actually respect. Rockford Files still is a great show to watch and there couldn't be any better man for the part, so natural.

    An all around cool guy and great driver!

  • This is awsome thanks, I grew up as a young kid watching him in re runs of the Rockford Files in the early 80s, man that show was a classic and he made that show work.

  • He reminds me of my Dad. Who was from Davidson OK. His mother died. When he was 8 years old. and moved to California when he was 10. He past away in 2005. He was my Dads favorite actor also. They had a lot in common. Black hair dark eyes and kind of a smart Ass too.

  • My late mother would delight in telling the story how she stood there sipping tea with James Garner at the Shell Houston Open, circa late 70s. My mom was working as a fairway marshal and Garner struck up a conversation with her at a refreshment stand. He was a total gentleman but she marveled at how he enjoyed the adulation he got from his celebrity status.

  • Jimmy has to be the most natural actor ever to grace the little screen!!! The man has his feet planted on the ground ,a down to earth good guy!!!

  • Bring Garner back to play Rockford on the remake.

  • Fabulous talent. He had great looks and personality and from what I am hearing on this interview he is really a decent guy. Every movie or show he is in has been wonderful. We have the entire Rockford Files series on DVD. And I am working on getting all his movies on DVD.

  • He's a very smart and wise actor. His talk about learning to listen is very good and very relevant in everything.

  • Love James Garner he's a great star my favorite tv film he appeared in was Breathing Lessons opposite Joanne Woodward they worked very well together and are still friends now both of them were nominated for Golden Globes she won he lost and she also won a Sag award for her work where he wasn't even nominated

  • I could listen to James all day, what a nice man he is. Like most of the postings above Rockford was great, love it. Knew him better in Maverick the years Westerns were on TV nearly every day. Loved him in the comedies with Doris Day, they had a wonderful chemistry between them. Such talent he has.

  • Did we know...

    James Garner- Merchant Seaman ww2, US Marine Korea-wounded and recieved Purple Heart.

  • James Garner is one of my favorite stars. I loved watching Rockford Files, still do. This is a great interview. I appreciate Jame's openness about his life. Thanks for posting this!
