Just OK!

Glenn Ford kinda played “Glenn Ford” in every movie he made, with the exception of “ Pocket Full of Miracles”. This biography is written perhaps just like we would all write of our parents; lacking somewhat in a clearer glimpse of the essence of the individual. It should be noted that most anyone who shared the screen with Ford had only good things to say about him. Would that our children might remain mum..
