Have you seen "Kingfish: A Story of Huey P. Long"? What did you think of it?
Where can you find a copy?
not to sound like a spambot, but it's on some of the 123movies / putlocker sites for free, if you don't mind clicking through a bunch of popups. lol
@@nigelrobles2948 I gave up lol
@@hellsing507 couldn't find it online, had to buy a DVD off amazon
@@hellsing507 it's now on RUclips but it's a VHS rip so don't expect great quality
they don't make them like Cavett anymore.. What a classy interview, no gimmicks or anything
I really miss this type of interview. Nowadays it's not really interviewing it's more of entertainment with a question here and there.
I only now realized that John Goodman could be Russell Crowe's cousin. They look so similar.
ah ha ha
I thought the same as I love them the same ✌
@@alexanderson7962 he meant because Russell is fat now lol
They do look a lot alike now that he's put on a bit of weight.
"Unsolved Mysteries" did a really strong segment on Huey Long. It was truly well done. The controversy about the shooting is the possibility that the doctor never shot at all, but Long's security team overreacted and actually shot him accidentally. That recreation is one of the best they ever did.
I saw the same one and it became very evident that Huey was a real asshole personality wise. Had to wonder if he wasn't so 'accidentally' shot by his... 'minders'.
He was clearly eccentrically egotistical and incapable of having a reasonable conversation with virtually anyone that didn't agree with his somewhat extreme visions.
@@TheOmnipresent12 none of his views are extreme. If you think they are extreme then you are just too privileged.
Yes, the insurance company who held Huey's life policy, paid double indemnity to his family because their investigation revealed that Long was " accidentally' shot by his bodyguards.
@@ericthomas917 we need more of Huey long’s policies in my country. Smh. There are too much corrupt politicians in the Philippines
It is evident to anybody w/ a brain or anything resembling one for that matter that Long was more than likely:
1.) Either killed by the guards, who at that point were “compromised” by his enemies.
2.) Weiss was a patsy and was setup (like Lee Oswald) to “take Long out,” only for the guards to either immediately “silence” Weiss or not even have Weiss shoot at all, but be present to pin the blame on while the guards did the deed!
The evidence is *sort offffff* there. 🙄 Think about it, why else would a man who had just been under attack run away from HIS OWN GUARDS!! Then upon arriving at the hospital, staff could have also been “compromised” and it was all a wrap from there.

These interviews are all so good and informative , as a youmg man , the modern day shows cant match up at all !!
yeah true, but we have podcasts now on just about everything. on demand.
Every Man a King!
But no one wears a crown!
@@WhiskeyPatriot here, u dropped this king 👑 ✨
share the wealth.
Exactly look at it now corruption rampant always the rich that sin the most
I love how this sounds just like two in-the-know people talking, tonnes of Q&A but it's free-flowing, and not mugging to an audience like a lot of talk shows are nowadays.
Brilliant actor, and probably the best cuddler in the world!!!
haiii mommm
"You're Entering a World of Pain..."
Well, that's just like, your opinion, man.
I'm calmer than you are.
Huey was a great man!
every man a king
Barton Fink..what a movie! What a performance! John Goodman, one of the best around!
For a good biography of Huey Long, read Huey Long by T. Harry Williams. Great book.
Does it tend to view him favorably or not so favorably? Sure seemed like a particularly dis-likable guy given the (actual/real) footage they had of him.
@@TheOmnipresent12 we get it. You hate working people.
@@williamsingelstad3644 Williams was the first objective look at Long.
I’m working on reading Huey Long’s Louisiana Hayride. My dad had T Harry Williams as a history professor when he went to LSU.
Funded by Long Family.
I wish he would bring his show back we need it
EVERY MAN A KING
WE GO NORTH AS TRAITORS
BUT COME HOME AS KINGS
Sounded like two really smart intellectuals just shooting the breeze.
That was true.
I watch Shawshank Redemption in black and white, until Red gets released, then I turn the colour back up.
Who's doing this to you?...
Blink twice if you need help
Overrated crap.
Huey long said no man should have too much and no man should have to little.facts😢😢. Facts rip Huey Long
They go deep so matter of factly. The same cadence they would discuss fall fashion is killin me 🤣
John Goodman has always seemed to me like the husband you'd want to have.
The husband you want, James?
@@ShredCo obviously. Look at that hunk of a man😤
@@ShredCo yeah look at him! the chasers dream husband
@@ShredCo he is perfect
James Dooling is Drooling over John Goodman haha
Please post the full interview 🤗
John Goodman update for Kaiserreich, when?
Huey Long should have become president. The country would have been better
100% agree
This comment section is gold!! This is what happens when Dick Cavett "Interviews a stranger in the alps"
John Goodman ♥️♥️♥️💯😃👍 greetings from Hamburg 🌈👀
They didn't talk about tie in 'nam.
the flinsteins
BillyBigBalcony. THE FLINTSTONES..Not "FLINTSTEINS"....They were not Jewish CAVEMEN..
@@ravensbrood3544 You're right. Brontosauri are definitely not kosher.
@@robertlevine2827 Absolutely not...No Rabbi to officiate, and Brontosauri are definitely not Pareve.
You must have muted the video
Did JOhn Goodman play Huey LOng in a MOvie? Is that why they are talking about Huey Lewis?
Yes, he did.
yes a made for tv movie it's here on youtube i just watched it again.
Weird mix of people I did not expect
It was the rich Republicans who hated Huey. Your average dirt farmer white or black loved The Kingfish.
A tour guide in the state capitol remarked that he was paranoid about being assassinated. 🤣
With today's amazing forensics, I wonder why they don't exhume Huey (he is buried on the grounds of the state capitol) and Dr. Weiss' bodies and try to determine which caliber slugs they were each shot with, the angles of trajectory of same, etc. In other words, work it as a major crime scene today would be worked .. They even still have one bullet hole (slug?) preserved in the marble of the building the shooting took place in (IIRC, this hole is from the bullet of one of Long's bodyguards upon shooting at Weiss). Seems they should be able from all that (plus supposedly the Belgian semi-auto that Weiss had on him at the time, assuming it has been preserved as well) determine just who shot whom.
Not necessarily. By now the remains of both are bones and maybe not even much of that. I don't know if the rounds were buried with the bodies or not. But of they weren't, they would probably have a hard time using forensics to determine who shot Long.
it's really simple his bodyguards shot him.
Well, they won't even release the documents about who killed JFK so..do you thinks they give a flying banana....they got away with it...
RUclips should upload Kingfish the story of huey long.
They did. I saw it last week.
@@michaeloptv Yes, and I seen it many times.
He would not let these huge shipping companies and Rockefeller oil for example go up to Mississippi river without paying taxes how do they do that???
Part of the transportation he builds the bridge and he makes sure those ships can't pass because it's too low so they have to be farried up by barges.. Barges that are built and owned locally in Louisiana.. The man was a genius.. 34 years old governor of Louisiana just fucking brilliant.. He didn't do nothing to know body that wasn't already been done in the same fashion manner by others the only difference was he did it to your face. Not to rub it in. No to tell u, u can be on board or not. Nothing will stop me. He was redbox talkin to BLOCKBUSTER (THE US GOVERNMENT)
THE KINGFISH BABY!!! 💪👊🤛🤜👊
He lives on the same street as my grandma.
I thought John did a great job portraying the Kingfish but sadly few people have seen the movie. Check it out it's here on youtube. Also check out the Paul Newman movie Blaze about the Kingfish's brother Gov. Earl Long.
John Goodman = American Russell Crowe - tell me I’m wrong
have nothing against the other celebs that were on this show but is this channel ever going to show the Dick Cavett shows where he interviews Jackie Gleason or Art Carney? How about any Honeymooners actors that were part of the main cast? These are rare much like the other Cavett ones.
One thing about Cavett is he finds himself far more interesting than anyone he’s interviewing. He talks through much of this - he’s rather annoying.
Is this channel ever going to show Dick Cavett shows where he interviews Jackie Gleason and/or Art Carney? I don’t have the Decades network.
3:00 wow, pretty sick. Seems like Goodman was more sympathetic toward Huey Long than his friends’ mother was, at least.
Good interview but so sad. Done in the 90s. In the 70s he was on primetime on a stage with live audience. Here you see him interviewing in someone's house. His talkshows chronicle the rise of hostility to anything intellectual and the embrace of stupidity by the american audience. And look at where it's at today.
Nice
Goodman clearly did his research on Huey Long if he is suspicious of the alleged assassin of Long.
he played huey in a movie
I would tend To agree with Goodman. on the death of Huey Long.
The person credited with assassinating Long likely didn't shoot him.
I think history has proved that. If not enough ?'s came up prove he didnt shoot all bullets if any. Politic's & Cover-ups go hand in hand. That why I say please vote all them out & no more vote 1 of 2.? "The less of the 2 evil's" & Need term limit's 8 years or less. You should serve your country & neighbor's. Not yourself as these bums are doing now. Please Vote Wisely.
Oof. John is the junior here.
“Even the gods won't forgive whoever invented black and white colorization.” -Dick Cavett
Damn Dick coming hard.
John Goodman & Ed Asner both played Huey Long. Neither look anything like Long. Directors cast for Willie Stark
But dare I say, Goodman made an exquisite Flintstone.
Actors having to look like the person their depicting is absurd.
Only in Louisiana could the governor’s race could David Duke of the KKK run against Edwin Edward’s and the bumper stickers “Vote For the Crook”
Is Cavett still alive?
Yes!
For a fleeting moment
Clickbait.
Goodman doesn't sound like he was cramming, but like a Long scholar. What is going on with a brain in a screen actor?

I am the first viewer
I've never been rewarded for posting in a comments section that I'm the first viewer. (As a matter of fact, I'm usually punished for it.)
Doubtful
Some of you wind up giving me grief over it is all.
@@somethingyousaid5059 As you should because it’s a stupid pointless played out comment. But I wasn’t talking to you. I mean it’s doubtful Wahashak was the first viewer.
Honestly, I can only resent the fact that someone would have a problem with me posting in a comments section that I'm first. Why should someone's resentment of me mean more to me than my own reciprocal resentment of them.
It shouldn't.
Movies are better in black and white? Yeah..well it's like your opinion man...
The ones that were shot in black and white are better in black and white. They were talking about the colorization of them, not movies shot in color.
Obviously you’re not a golfer.
Huey Long was killed by ricochet bullits from his own bodyguards .
The comment section belongs to me
The only one here
Sad what happened to Roseanne . To bad her co workers didn't stick up for her !! No backbones to be had !!
Why should they give up a job for her stupidity?
@@SpeccyHorace Because what she said was blown right out of proportion , turning it into something it wasn't . There's way too many people now a days that go looking for something to be offended by just so they can bitch about it .
@@alcodie1558 Wrong! ( said the same way Orange man said it )
@@thomasbusy3632 What do you mean ?? Trump said it was blown out of proportion as well ??
@@alcodie1558 of course the liar would say that!
