ABOVE THREE PHOTOS: The chemistry could not have been better when they paired up James Garner and Mariette Hartley in this episode of the Rockford Files. These two actors already had the public's admiration having starred together in countless Polaroid Camera commercials as a "couple". Many people thought they were actually a married couple based on those 1970's commercials.
