The great John Garfield...and the great boxing movie Body and Soul!!!
I love John Garfield him and Robert Mitchum are my favorites have a good day
john garfield, my man
Canada Lee (Ben) was amazing. He was a professional boxer who lost an eye in the ring before he turned to acting, mostly in theatre. On Broadway he was the first African-American actor to play a white role, in 1946. Lee only made a few films before he got blacklisted and died young - less than 2 weeks before John Garfield in 1952. If I had to pick his single most memorable scene, this is it.
Actually, THE best boxing movie. Everything first rate including the music.
THE ORIGINAL ROCKY! GREAT MOVIE, GARFIELD WAS A NATURAL. THIS IS A GREAT SCENE WITH CANADA LEE, SHOWING CHARLIE HIS FUTURE!🥊🥊🥊

Classic scene in a classic film. There’s so much in there about race and class: the fact that Canada Lee “doesn’t scare easy”, sticking up for himself against the white boss who is trying to pit Garfield against him. Whether or not Rossen intends it, seeing the punching bag swinging from a tree after Lee dies suggests another fate that befell so many black people. It’s a powerful image.
William Conrad, Cannon.
Blacklisted actors: Anne Revere, Canada Lee, Lloyd Gough, Art Smith, John Garfield.
Bloody hell that was depressing
Hokey, corny, dated, cliche' ridden and absolutely sensational. A brilliant film. Garfield is perfect.
I rented this movie I was very disappointed the end scene where the delivery guy from the deli says they're killing our people in Europe and we got a champion here they cut that out.
Thanks so much. I grew up watching John Garfield and I loved him. He was one of a kind and the recipient of the communist posse that eventually had a hand in killing him.
Definitely as good as Cagney and Bogart I own three of his movies force of evil Body and Soul and The Postman Always Rings Twice him and Robert Mitchum on my favorites have a good day
He was indeed a truly great actor and that would be the FASCIST posse, if you are talking about Senator McCarthy and his insane hunt for "Communists" which decimated our cultural landscape in that era: artists, authors, songwriters, poets, actors... careers and lives wasted because some right-wing yahoo had a bug up his ass and had paranoid delusions, seeing "commies and pinkos" at every turn. John Garfield was no Communist. Neither were the majority of the creatives who were dragged before the House Committee on Un-American Activities. Folly! Destructive and wicked folly.
@@TheAwetist802 thank you. I stand corrected :)
the communists did't killed him? it was the right wingers who persecuted him
