Fun Movie Friday-Maverick

 With James Garner and Mel Gibson.  Also Jodie Foster and Graham Greene. And James Coburn.  And Alfred Molina.  Great cast, fun movie.  

                                                            Nice nod to Lethal Weapon

  8. JL— And now I’m going to show my age. James Garner was the original Bret Maverick. TV show from 1957-1962. And several takeoffs on the character subsequently. That was the beauty of the casting.
