Where is he today?
ReplyDeleteWatching the wilderness Family trilogy tonight, He's doing a great job. Had no idea he was that old during filming!
ReplyDeleteI just wondering what Robert Logan doing right now. I watched him the movie the Wilderness Family back in the 70's and did a great job. Where is actor Robert Logan now? Lisa Weiner
ReplyDeleteI wonder too where he is and what he is doing? The Tahiti trip he took still stays in my mind.
ReplyDeleteI can't find anything on the net about what he is up to nowadays. The Wilderness Family movies were my favorite as a kid growing up in the 70's.
ReplyDeleteLove all his movies
ReplyDeleteJust watched Across the Great Divide and he was great. What a pleasant, charming and kind person and I'm sure he has all those qualitites in his personal life. May God bless him always.
ReplyDeleteHe was quite unlike today’s film stars.So much an unspoiled actor who’s true character comes through the parts he acts in.Very charismatic & uncommon.Awful that he died so young.His personality shows his upbringing,the eldest of seven children.
DeleteOMG I'm DYING to see The Wilderness Family and the Sea Gypsies again...!!!!
ReplyDeleteI tried finding them on Youtube but, no luck.
Found Across the Great Divide on there Shelly! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0zjHbcsY7WQ
DeleteAll three Wilderness Families in Pureflix!
DeleteTHE WILDERNESS FAMILY-all 3 were the greatest non-Disney movies of my childhood. I have such great memories of me & my little sister watching them and eating doritos waiting for our honeybuns to cook in the oven-long before microwaves! I wanted to BE them when I grew up! Havent seen any of the actors since then, Hows Toby and the 1st Jenny?? Id love to know!
ReplyDeleteRobert Logan sat behind me in High School and he was always drawing beautiful pictures. He told me that one day he would be an actor -- and he did it, and much more.
ReplyDeleteIf he'd sat behind ME in High School, I'm quite sure I would have retained exactly ZERO information!
DeleteHe was my favorite actor and what a handsome guy he was. Enjoyed the movie The Sea Gypsies also known as Shipwreck & Across the Great Divide. Wish he had done so much more in the movie industry & if I could meet him I would make love with him the rest of my life. I'm 55 and still look like I'm in my 30's I think but if that doesn't get his attention can I please see the movie Shipwreck for free that means put it out there for us to see without having to pay for it
ReplyDeleteEww
DeleteRobert Logan did a movie back in the early eighties by the name of "Kelly" where he played the part of an Alaskan bush pilot. I've looked everywhere but can't find any reference to it. I'd sure love to find out where I could possibly get a copy of that movie. It was and still is one of my favorites. ANY help from anyone in this regards would be extremely appreciated.
ReplyDeleteMy dear 85 year old, recently widowed mother has always liked Robert Logan and wants to send him a fan letter. Anyone know where she can mail something to him?
ReplyDeleteME TOO!
DeleteHi Bob,
ReplyDeleteSay Happy Birthday to Tim today for me…Been looking him up but can't find him anywhere…It would be nice to say hi to him after all this time…Met you at your Malibu beach house when Tim use to surf there..He can find me at instagram: Sharonilla007
I heard that he was living primitively around the area of Denver, CO
ReplyDeletehave been watching reruns of 77 Sunset Strip and had forgotten Kookie moved up in the firm. They sure picked a cutie to replace him. I live near Denver. He could be anywhere up in those hills.
ReplyDeleteI grew up in Hollywood and loved 77 Sunset Strip.
ReplyDeleteMy father worked at capital records and wrote and recorded the music for the Doris Day movies. I was wondering what Robert is doing today. Where he lives and if he would like to meet me and talk about the old Hollywood days....
The last I read he lives alone in Colorado.
