Do tell about the soul selling in Hollyweird. Blake was used up bad.
He just can’t help himself. He sees a camera and he has to be in front of it
Smoke that Charlie potatoes
He grew up to be a murderer and get away with it like O J Simpson
You look like your Mother Mickey

What a beautiful little boy. Very talented because of all that neglect. Poor little guy.

It's a shame he turned down the role of Ratzo Rizzo in Midnight Cowboy; it would have been perfect casting and won him the Oscar.
See, people still love Robert Blake, trouble is not many of us left, or, you would not be able to count the comments, there would be so many….
I don't normally get frightened by films but when is the Devil in Lost Highway it freaked me out
Robert Blake is definitely not the cold blooded murderer portrayed by the media. At worst, he lost his temper and killed his fake, gold digger wife who was legally married to 28 men when he killed her.ÂÂ
Many other men would have snapped under the identical circumstances. You can only ruin so many lives before you get your just due.
No, I do not agree with vigilante murder. But do not mess with people because you can never predict what they are capable of doing.
My father was abusive to me bad and I am messed up but I thank God that I have empathy for people cause I see what could have been if not for that look at this man. Robert blake an angry hatful no empathy for anyone but himself
cement is powder. It''s a concrete box.
“Put that in your pipe and smoke it!“ Robert Blake is awesome
He broke the fourth wall.
Todos los mejores deseos del mundo Mr. Robert Blake
Mr Blake!! Im thankful you were born.
Gosh I wish I could clean and organize his home. Never forget Bobby your were and are something. Gave many of us many laughs with Carson and Tom Synder and all your movies. Move to the southwest, I'll clean your home for free. May you find peace in your heart you deserve that.
I hope he makes a comeback.
" Life is a rehearsal….your performance is real " ..{ John Garfield }…That's an all~time classic line !!
Robert is still my favorite actor, "Cold Blood" & " Electra Glide In Blue" being my two movies I could watch anytime without getting bored but it was " Baretta" as a kid that got me , he was the " Cool" Cop that I wished I had in my neighborhood,him and Steve McQueen will always be Hollywood`s Kings of cool in my book, I don't think he had anything to do with his wife's murder and hope he gets one more chance to make a movie before he's not on this earth.
Loved both Baretta and Kojak! Cool "boys" both of them! I wonder if they ever met and what they thought of each other .. Anyway loved them both… Edit: Loved the charactar Baretta .. and with Kojak both the charactar and the real man.

Love to you, Robert. Enjoy this time in your life~You deserve itðŸÂƒâš˜
Robert Blake has led an amazing free-wheeling life. full of triumphs and tragedies. he never got past his deep and raging anger over the abuse from this parents {and others}. Whatever else you may want to say about him: he is a fighter, one tough dude and a survivor. he made it past 85, … and beat all the odds.
and yes: he had a self-destructive edge most all of his life.
I hope that some day I could meet him before I or he leaves this earth.
He has given us the best that he could possibly give as far as a performance goes.
However I still say that this Man has still even a higher level of acting yet to be seen.
I'm a True Blue
Robert Blake fan and always will be.
Stay Strong Robert the best in life is yet to come to you.
Anyone can clearly say that you are a Man with a tremendous heart and soul. We need to see him in front of the camera again and its gonna happen.
He paid some to get rid of Bonnie. Yep it's true but who we will never know
Omg I had no idea about this!! Definitely made me feel sorry about him… What a crazy dysfunctional family for sure.. Poor him as a baby.. Wasn’t his fault!!
