James Garner - Rotten Tomatoes (http://www.rottentomatoes.com/celebrity/james_garner/)

This Rotten Tomatoes listing of James Garner's movies has some very obvious mistakes but I see a lot of movies and shows I enjoyed over his long career not from 1927 though.

So sad loved him in Rockford File, Murphy's Romance and The Notebook especially!

I have a unique experience; he was already a TV and becoming a major movie star. My sophomore year in high school in OKC, I was mother's travel companion to the OU-USC football game when my father couldn't take off work at the last minute. It was a chartered plane full of Sooner fans; can't remember name of hotel where we stayed, but was next to the Brown Derby. Anyway, I remember James Garner, a native Norman, Oklahoman and honorary OU alumnus, attending all the OU functions, mingling with the fans and so forth. He was nice! And, OU won the football game that blistering hot Saturday afternoon, moving them into #1 ranking.

Maverick dead???? Say it isn't so. James Garner was always one of my favorites.
