      One of my favorites, still, is his early role as "Dr. Mark Toland" in "One Life To Live." Also remember his cameo as one of "Oliver Barrett IV's" poker playing buddies in "Love Story". Of his most recent, I've thoroughly enjoyed "Space Cowboys"! A very talented guy!

      @@darkl3ad3r What do you think? Just use a bit of logical deduction, here. Does James Lipton get a bad wrap? No. He's largely enjoyed. TLJ, on the other hand, can be considered grumpy, arrogant, and too cool for school. Obviously, he was referring to TLJ.

    Tommy tries to correct Lipton about his heritage. Lipton
    begins by not knowing that Jones is a Welsh name.....not a good start. Lipton then is dismissive of the difference between Comanche and Cherokee. Cherokee were/are an agrarian and peaceful tribe. Comanche were known for their aggressive and violent nature. Lipton was unprepared and I think a bit off kilter for the remainder of the interview. He missed an opportunity to be educated and it was obvious he knows nothing about Native American history. Tommy Lee is wicked smart and I think Lipton was a bit intimidated.

      The natives were not hairy hippies. They were savages and warriors

    The first candid visit I have ever experienced with the consummate actor from my lifetime, beside Robert Duval of course, and it was beyond any expectation I had imagined in my 60+ years. I first decided to study Mr. Jones after VHS came out and I rented Black Moon Rising. Not an epic character but done so flawlessly you were convinced this man was out there somewhere. I had been too busy trying to survive prior to have seen any of his previous work, but thankful to live in a time where access is unlimited. Lonesome Dove should be a national treasure.

    That football story makes sense that he expresses emotions the way he does. My entire confidence in radical noisy activism from the 70s came from a lot of success in track and field...narcassistic and egotistical bottom line which makes confidence and adventure so simple

    Tommy Lee Jones role in "The Fugitive" was great and deserving of praise, but Ralph Fiennes deserved the Oscar more for his chilling portrayal of Amon Goth in Schindler's List. One of the greatest performances of banal evil on film.

      Nah, if Ralph Fiennes deserved to win he would have won. He did not win because Tommy Lee Jones really stood out in his role. He elevated the material he had to work with, were as Fiennes just did a great job with the material he was given.

    When Tommy Lee made the comment that he believes is acting skills came not from the air but from the dirt everybody broke out and laughter. It was a serious comment accompanied by inappropriate laughter from the audience. Look of confusion on his face at the outburst made me feel sad he wasn't being taken seriously. After this, I guarantee you he'll never do another interview again

    SUGGESTION: One way to avoid uncomfortable moments about someone's heritage would be to make no assumptions but simply ask what one's ethnic roots are. And if the answer is, say, Welsh, you might mention you've heard he has some Native American roots and if so, you'd love to know more about his Native heritage.
