I have seen 15 of Henry’s films, the highest ranked I have not seen is The One and Only.
Hey Dan. I have seen 18 of his movies…so I am slightly ahead of you. He has come along way since his Fonz days. I can not believe he is 76….at first I thought it was a mistake…but sure enough he is 76.
I have fallen down the Winkler internet rabbit hole since watching his recent interview on the Rich Eisen Show. I had no idea he has appeared in so many movies. Look live the Fonz.
Thanks for the feedback Chris. I heard him on that show as well. Thanks for the visit and the comment.
Glad I followed this Twitter feed. Henry is a very underrated actor. Though he only had a few leading man roles, check out his performances in Heroes, The One and Only and Night Shift. I never understood why he made so few movies during his run as the Fonz. So glad he won the Emmy for Barry.
Hey Philip. I agree with your thought process. You are right in noticing that he made so few movies during the peak of Happy Days. I remember watching The One and Only with my brother. We laughed a ton during that movie. Good comment
Henry Winkler is one of my all-time favorite people. I have had the luxury off meeting him a few times and he has always blown me away with his kindness. If everybody was half as nice as him this world would be a much better place. Thanks for giving him some attention.
I have never meet Mr. Winkler, but I have a friend that was an extra on Memories of Me, and he said that was one of the greatest sets he had ever been on before. That was one of the few Winkler directed movies.
Hey Philip…good information about the set of Memories of Me…I saw that one in theaters. Thanks for stopping by.
Hey Janice….thanks for the great comment on Henry Winkler. He seems to a good person away from the spotlight. Thanks for sharing your experiences with him. Good stuff.
