Great UMR Page
I have seen 3 Joe Flynn movies.
Lover Come Back and The Love Bug are favourites. I have also seen This Happy Feeling.
I’ve seen all 17 of Joe’s films.
The poor man’s Don Knotts? I bet he and Knotts were up for many of the same roles. I did not realize he had passed away so after his Dexter Riley movies with Kurt Russell.
