You know what my dad calls him?

I didn't remember seeing him in legally blond, but now that you mention it, that was him!!! Amazing all the little things you miss. My mom also knows him as "that old titanic guy" I just go, "mom. Victor Garber. He has a name, you know"

Yep, that's called "acting." So few actors do it that we tend to forget.
Too true!!!
 
when i watched legally blonde my friend went theres the slime ball and i went no hes not hes decent in alias why would he be bad and then i realised and was like you make me sick
 
^_^ Actors want a variety of roles, you know. It can be fun to play the slimeball.

"Legally Blonde," "Sleepless in Seattle," "Me and MY Shadows: My Life With Judy Garland," "Invisible Child," "Tuck Everlasting," "Godspell," and numerous others. He's done lots of Broadway shows too. He's been busy!
I saw him in Leagally Blonde !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I love that movie! he's kinda Jack-ass! get it!!!!!!!!!!!!!! oh my god I am hyper :P
 
He was pretty good in Titanic and Annie. He recently was in "Music Man" on ABC. Has he been in anything else?
He was real good in a television movie during the 80's or early 90's about Liberace' where he played Liberace' too.
 
i love victor in titanic. he looks so sweet at the firsts scenes when he´s having lunch with rose and all the others rich people on the ship.i cried like a baby with the clock scene. it was an astonishing performance.
 
Victor was awsome in The First Wives Club. He was the hubby of Goldie Hawn's character--Elise Eliot. Fab movie! Victor is great at all he does.

The problem with this movie is I think we're supposed to sympathize with the wives--and they just automatically think, oh, everybody just loves Goldie, it doesn't matter how badly she behaves, everyone will still love her! But even though Mr Garber's character was a womanizing cad, he was still human & didn't even realize he was doing what they finally "got" him on!--Hawn's character came off as vapid and venomous and I ended up sympathizing more for Garber's character (even when I first saw it before I was a big Garber fan). (The other husband came off as far more deserving of his fate.) It's a result of the humanity that Mr Garber infuses into every character he plays, even the most vile. They failed to make Hawn's character sympathetic enough & they showed too much of Garber's character's human side to maintain the comedic edge . . . or maybe I'm just too much of a softie to enjoy vengeance comedy . . . but I did truly enjoy Mr Garber's performance.
:confused: ✌️
 
I loved Victor in Titanic, I sympathized with his character more than Leo's or Kate Winslet's character. That scene with the clock made me soo sad and brought tears to my eyes, more so than Leo's death. He was great in First Wives Club, and I agree with you Verdantheart, that he didn't realize he was doing anything wrong, and he didn't really seem to do anything as bad as the other husbands. Victor is such as awesome actor!

Well, of course. The engineer was the most heroic character of the story. Winslet's character was a romanticist who got her boyfriend killed. I had a hard time working up a lot of sympathy for her. (I guess the way they told the story there's probably not a lot of women who agree with me . . . it's the T in my personality coming out, I guess . . .)

wow V, do you love Victor or what? hehe. you've got good taste though ;).

man i've seen so many Victor movies and didn't even realize it. i can't remember him from Annie and i had no idea he was in Sleepless in Seattle!!! i remember him quite well in Titanic, The First Wives Club and Legally Blonde though. he really is an awsome actor. and he's so cuddly, you know? everytime i see him i wanna huggle him! except in that Alias scene with Elsa, he scared the sh*t out of me. which is only a good sign ;).
 
Yeah, same here. Everytime I see Victor I want to give him a hug, especially when he is Jack. Jack is a character that doesn't get enough hugs.
