Family emigrated to the US in 1961. Gained weight when his wife was pregnant with three of their children. Garcia's early childhood in Miami Beach was punctuated by fisticuffs. Speaking little English, Garcia defended himself against insults, real and imagined. He still clings to old-fashioned values; he stands when a woman enters the room, and refuses to do nude scenes (he prefers to let romance bloom in viewers' imaginations). He once walked out of a audition when asked to remove his shirt. Doesn't even have a publicist. His character tells Brad Pitt's character on the cell phone, if I find you in Long Beach buying a expensive car I'll be very disappointed. Several years ago, the real creator and former owner of the Bellagio hotel (Steve Wynn), paid a ransom for the return of his kidnapped child. The kidnappers were caught when they were trying to buy an expensive car in Long Beach with the ransom money. (OCEAN'S ELEVEN) MORE ANDY GARCIA TRIVIA
