a remake of this movie with Glen Beck in thet title role is warranted...

They did a documentary on this on Turner Classic Movies, the studio was investing in Andy to be the next great actor, the next Marlon Brando they claimed.

Had more talent then anyone in Hollywood.

But the Andy Griffith Show presented itself (through Danny Thomas show skit)

Andy loved it and took the role, hired his buddy Don Knotts and shot the studios dreams to hell

Anyway he said "I have to regrets, I loved that show, it was based on a rare thing, LOVE, every episode if you watch closely"

Without a shadow of a doubt,Andy Griffith gave one hell of a hardcore remarkable performance in his film debut,even though his Lonesome Rhodes character was much more darker than his light and yet lovable Andy Taylor character in his own sitcom that came after "A Face in the Crowd";RIP Andy Taylor aka Matlock

[Allen Woodall]

In my opinion this movie prove he was a star in the making

RIP Andy!

Enuff of the GB comments, that dude's a has-been. The only reason GB is mentioned is because of another blowhard loser, Keith Olbermann who tried to connect the character to GB. But in reality, LR could be most of the MSM's obnoxious on-screen "talents".

Even politicians from both sides of the corrupt parties.

This is about Andy, and his gift to all of us.
