TVC 686.2: Peter Ford, son of screen legends Glenn Ford and Eleanor Powell, helps Ed celebrate the seventieth anniversary of the release of Blackboard Jungle, the iconic film from 1955 that not only starred Glenn Ford as a young English teacher in an inner-city high school, but which prominently featured the song "Rock Around the Clock" in its soundtrack, putting Bill Haley and the Comets on the map while also launching the era of rock 'n' roll music. Peter Ford was just ten years old when Blackboard Jungle was released, yet he played a very prominent role in getting his dad and director Richard Brooks to integrate "Rock Around the Clock" into Blackboard Jungle—indeed, Little Stevie van Zandt once credited Peter as being the catalyst for one of the seminal moments in rock 'n' roll history. Peter Ford is also the author of Glenn Ford: A Life, an intimate look at the life and times of one of our finest screen actors.
