He Ran Walked And Swam Part Of The Way
5 December 2005
Warning: Spoilers
During a payroll robbery Garfield guns down on a cop and is then on the run without much of a plan. He goes to a public swimming pool where he encounters Shelley Winters practicing for her swimming part in The Poseidon Adventure. He goes to Shelley's family apartment, and his emotional state becomes increasingly agitated as he hangs out with Shelley. Eventually Garfield holds Shelley's entire family hostage and forces them to eat turkey instead of stew. During the course of the film we learn that Garfield's instability is probably due to his mother played by Gladys George. In the very first scene it is evident that George wouldn't win any mother of the year awards. In one scene when the cops are talking to her she is drinking a can of Pabst Blue Ribbon. I wish she had more scenes because she plays her character with a lot of conviction.
