Remembering John Garfield (Pt. 1)
Manage episode 351645960 series 3378901
In this episode, the first in a two-parter on John Garfield, we go into his films from the 1930s to mid-1940s - including his breakout Oscar-nominated performance in Four Daughters and his most iconic role in The Postman Always Rings Twice. We discuss his role as an activist and how activism with celebrities differs from the '40s and present day. We also go into his affair with Lana Turner and how it affects our view on Garfield as an actor/person. Other topics include comparisons between him and James Cagney, the difficulty with being typecast, why Garfield was considered a sex symbol, and much more!
