TCM Star of the Month: John Garfield
This is Garfield's third time to be so honored, but it's been quite a while since he was last celebrated back in February 2003.
His first time as Star of the Month was in November 1994, just a few months after TCM went on the air in April of that year.
30 Garfield films will be shown spread across Tuesday evenings this month. Air times for various time zones may be found on TCM's online schedule.
Below is the complete Garfield lineup. Please click on any hyperlinked title to read my full-length review.

I haven't watched Out of the Fog or Four Daughters in years. I'm looking so forward to those screenings in particular.
I've been thinking that I really need to do a rewatch of the complete FOUR DAUGHTERS series! I love those movies.
I was a bit surprised to realize how many of Garfield's film's I'd seen when I was putting this together! Lots of good viewing here.
Best wishes,
Laura
PS I just realized my copy of OUT OF THE FOG is on a VHS tape and set it to record so I can "upgrade" -- so I especially appreciate you mentioning that title!
Best wishes,
Laura
