Great bio. He may have been a "bad boy", but he seemed to have remained faithful to his wife, family and friends throughout his entire adult life - and you don't see a lot of that kind of personal commitment.
He's life was a difficult life like most people had those days loosing his father and the depression but he was a courageous boy that grown to be a good father a nice husband and a great actor ,his life history show us that no matter what hardships you got in your life go forward taking care of his family and friends ,also I admire him to be with his wife till the end ,thank you for this great biography of Robert Mitchum
"Heaven Knows Mr. Allison" is a gem that's seldom seen anymore. Mitchum's portrayal of a hard-bitten Marine who takes a nun under his protection is one of the best film performances ever.
I met Robert Mitchum when I was on a flight from San Diego to San Jose back in September, 1976. I was a teenager and he was so nice to me on that flight. I barely knew who he was and now, looking back, he was probably was relieved that I didn't know his stature so that he could just be himself and not a movie star.
Robert Mitchum appeared to live life on his terms. I thought he was very handsome and a great actor. Thank You Jerry for all your work you put into these biographies.
I just watched the Robert Mitchum bio...I have to say that this was a great man with a true heart of his own.They dont make actors like this anymore and this man was way ahead of his time...KUDOS and rest in peace.
Thank you so much for this wonderful documentary. I’m 74, and I remember Mitchum as one of the greats. how interesting to see how he made a good life! God rest him!
Robert Mitchum's character was really portrayal and many of the comments of him as an actor and individual with a real sense of who he is and was. All through through the miniseries of "Winds of War" I kept repeating what a magnificent example of a real leader, it looks like he really lived it as well. Kudos to all his family and friends who were closest to him!!!
Jerry, you sound like my Dad and Uncles... Sadly, all are no longer with us... Watching your videos, brings me back to childhood... I would listening to stories of places and events, from a time, I wanted to understand... I thank you from my heart, for both content and delivery...
Thank you, Jerry, that was beautiful. Chris Mitchum

Another actor that’ll
He was simply a great actor and came across as a gem of a man, This presentation gives credit to him, and also to your work. Thank you.
One of the traits of your documentaries I appreciate most is the absence of judgement. You deserve every bit of your success & acclaim.
Thanks for another thoughtful and kind history lesson. There will never be another Robert Mitchum. Not many grew up like that.

He was one of the greatest men alive. His acting will never be forgotten. I was a young then and thought I was in love. I still watch his movies.
Another awesome video!
I saw so many of his pictures that this brings back great memories.
