James Garner passed away at the age of 86 this week and I didn’t realize until I read about his life that he had earned two Purple Hearts in the Korean War. I remember watching The Rockford Files when I visited my grandparents, but I think that even if you don’t know much about James Garner that you’ll be able to recognize thses 10 films.

I will miss “Ole Jimmy” and Rockford files is one of my favorite old shows. He was one of the oldies but goodies. I’m sad to hear he died. Another ‘end-of-an-era’. Rest In Peace! James.
There was something so likeable about him!
