===Acting===
Garfunkel pursued an acting career in the early 1970s, appearing in two [[Mike Nichols]] films: ''[[Catch-22 (film)|Catch-22]]'' (1970), in which he played a supporting role as the 19-year-old naive [[Nately|Lieutenant Nately]], and ''[[Carnal Knowledge (film)|Carnal Knowledge]]'' (1971), a co-starring role in which he played the idealistic character Sandy. His role as Sandy secured him a nomination for Best Supporting Actor at the 1972 [[Golden Globe Awards]].

He later appeared in [[Nicolas Roeg]]'s ''[[Bad Timing]]'' (1980) as Alex Linden, an American [[psychiatrist]] who serves as the film's main [[antagonist]]. The film received the [[Toronto International Film Festival|Toronto Festival of Festivals]]' highest honor, the People's Choice Award, and the [[London Film Critics' Circle]] Award for Best Director.

He appeared in ''[[Good to Go (film)|Good to Go]]'' (1986), directed by Blain Novak, starring as a Washington, D.C., journalist who struggles to clear his name after being framed for rape and murder. Garfunkel then appeared in the medical crime drama ''[[Boxing Helena]]'' (1993), directed by [[Jennifer Lynch]], as Lawrence Augustine.

Garfunkel's most recent film is ''[[The Rebound]]'' (2010), directed by [[Bart Freundlich]]. He played Harry Finklestein, the slightly senile and comic-relief father of the film's main character.
