  • Legendary actor Peter O'Toole (1932-2013) pays a visit to David Letterman in order to promote his new film "Phantoms".
    He instead decides to share two hilarious stories from his childhood and theatre life, involving a dead father christmas and a deck chair, which literally had me in tears with laughter. A perfect example of his great storytelling and wonderfully eccentric personality.
    Unfortunately no great video quality, however I hope you will enjoy watching him twist his hair as much as I did!

    I love the way he respectfully turns and acknowledges the band as he comes on, and then they stand and applaud him in return. We need more genteel, kind moments like this in our mad, selfish world. Bravo!

    Still having not enough anecdotes about Sir O'Toole's professional and private life. I'm truly amazed. What a vivid, sharp energy! Unique, brilliant, wise and superb person!

    Mr O'Toole is a great storyteller. He has the most graceful command of the English language. I strive to speak as eloquently as does he.

    Just love his gestures and the cute way he smiles and dandy way he puts his hands. He is such a gentleman and somehow quite child-like in this interview. He is more handsome now than he's been for a long time. He grew better-looking with age and more happier. Some of his interviews he seems quite sad. Poor darling. RIP Peter.

    • @nathanielpreston5377
      @nathanielpreston5377 4 года назад +1

      Actually after Richard Harris sadly passed away, his family considered his close friend Peter O'Toole as a replacement for The Prisoner of Azkaban but unfortunately the studio feared that Peter O'Toole wouldn't be healthy enough to carry on for the rest of the franchise. Even though he passed away 2 years after The Deathly Hallows part 2.

      Agree! Richard Harris was perfect as Dumbledore. He had that warmth and twinkle in his eye that Michael Gambon didn't bring to the role. O'Toole would have brought that same warmth and twinkle to Dumbledore.

      Unfortunate that they settled with Gambon. Although Gambon admittedly got better, he was still just wrong imo. Harris was amazing.
