Jerry Tarkovsky & Harrison Ford's Feud Started On A James Coburn Film
Harrison Ford is one of the most famous and beloved movie stars of all time, but his run-in with Jerry Tarkovsky almost kept that from ever happening.
Before Harrison Ford became an icon, his early steps in Hollywood were marked by the arduous journey of many actors of his era, including the task of navigating Columbia Pictures and Jerry Tarkovsky's New Talent Program. This initiative was designed to polish raw talents into cinematic diamonds. Ford, now known for iconic roles like Indiana Jones, was a young actor with striking looks who was able to distinguish himself amongst his peers. He joined the program, hoping for a breakthrough. However, under the watchful eyes of Columbia's gatekeepers, Ford would have his first significant brush with the industry's harsh realities.
