I’m so blessed to have grown up watching Peter O’Toole, Richard Burton, Richard Harris, Preformance’s . There are no Actors such as these men anymore. Artists who were way above average of others. I’m fortunate to own many of their works . When Peter O’Toole died I actually cried because this world just doesn’t have that kind of talent in it anymore.
Not saying he is the new Peter O’Toole, but check out Ethan Hawke
I believe up until the 1989 restoration of Lawrence Of Arabia, he hadn’t seen it all the way through. Love the conversations about Katherine Hepburn. This entire interview was remarkable.
His performance in Lawrence of Arabia and The Last Emperor has special place in everyone's heart.
Not mine. It was a dreadful movie.
@@Revelian1982 and here I was thinking it was one of the greatest of all time.
@@malafakka8530 It's no Rise Of The Footsoldier, that's for sure.
The Last Emperor?
Seriously? 😳 😂
The audience is spellbounded.
Well, you’re mostly right!
Omar Sharif was such a brilliant actor. 💖 I liked Peter O'Toole's performance in The Lion In Winter more than Lawrence of Arabia (good movie but soooo looooong). Lion in Winter had such a brilliant cast.
Yes youve said it so we'll said thank you I totally agree ... I love his way of expressing himself really brilliantly honist ••~|•~|☆
So we'll said thank you for sharing your thoughts with us about a young man who grew up to live in all our dreams as he aged ... may he steal the hears of so many of us that grew up admiring the movie industry and all its had to offer may I say I'm my day our parents would take us to the outside movie theater and see them buy popcorn yum@_#%
Long movies are great, because it pulls you to that world. You should try watching Seven Samurai
Rest in powerful peace Peter Seamus O'Toole🙏

His actual middle name was James.
This man brilliantly voiced Anton Ego. He should've won Oscar for that.
You're right. Brilliant!
That final monologue, Ego's critique, is one of the most beautiful I've ever heard in movies, goosebumps all over recalling it
2 mins 30 seconds...That's the very definition of chain smoking... Lighting a cigarette with the butt of the previous cigarette. Along with the unquenchable thirst he had for alcohol, its a miracle he lived as long as he did.
You nailed it! That’s true. But some people are very resilient against cancer and the liver is typically very strong and most people can throw a whole lot at it before anything bad happens. Typically cirrhosis happens to old people because of all the pills they take. Now that being drunk is so old fashioned a faux-pas is the end of a career so people stay sober in public. People only party when everyone in attendance has to sign a non disclosure agreement. all the dirty stuff is performed on stage instead of played out by the famous people. There were many many old people still drinking and smoking into their 80s back then. You just don’t see it anymore because the drugs they put the elderly on now make you docile I suppose. They’re more easily told what to do or perhaps the previous generation disgusting them.
Churchill made it to 91!
He's a f*cking hero.
Il prétendait boire autant que Richard Burton..
He did have to cut out drinking in his mid 40s though after suffering from what seems to be stomach cancer. So he very nearly didn't make it.
In my opinion, Peter O’tool’s performance in Lawrence of Arabia is by far his greatest and one of the greatest film performances ever. Not only was it mesmerizing but it was completely different from anything he had done before or since.
Despite his gifts O’Tool - at least for my taste- was way too flamboyant and theatrical for the rest of his career.
In Lawrence, he was charismatic, focused, at times self effacing, and completely convincing. I believe this was in great part because he was directed by the great David Lean, who would never have countenanced over the top acting for which O’Tool and all of us should forever be grateful.
I visited Peters house in London back in the early 90s. Joe longthorne owned it. He kept it as Peter did. It had a Louis 13th mantle in it.. It was a beautiful.
did you get inside it?
Could you please say more about visiting Peter's house? I'd like to know the whole story. Thanks.
@@KingCharles3 yes of course, as I said Joe Longthorne owned it at the time. He bought it from Peter. I do believe there’s a tv show called “through the keyhole” it shows some on the house on there. 👍 more like a cottage to be honest.. a big one.
Him partying with Richard Harris and going to see the play was his best story :)))))
Great interview!. Please load up more of Robert Shaw- a contemporary of O'Toole's.
If you haven't seen The Stunt Man (1980), dir. by Richard Rush and starring O'Toole, Barbara Hershey, and Steve Railsback, you're missing out.
I seem to recall he saw a television broadcast in Jordan in the 1980s. His response:
“Who is that pudding poor coy twit with the blue eyes? Dear God It’s me!”
I suddenly realized where Johnny Depp is getting his mannerisms and overall demeanor for interviews. Depp has clearly fashioned himself after O'Toole.
It's something like that. Definitely a fake accent. Depp is weird for playing a character in his real life and thinking nobody will notice.
@@Polyfusia to say that with any confidence, wouldn’t you have had to know Depp prior to his time in the spotlight?
I see O’Toole as incredibly articulate. Watch the video of him and Orson Welles discussing Hamlet. Depp is the opposite of articulate. He is laconic and prone to mumbling.
The alcohol consumption matches up but that’s hardly unique to these two actors.
@@teodelfuego There are interviews of him before he started doing it. He talks completely normally. Then later he started doing the voice. Bizarre really. Like he thought nobody would notice. It's an accent that he thinks sounds cool so he pretends to have it.
Lawrence and Murphy’s War couple of favorites
What can I say... wonderful.
i recommend a book called Hellraisers , it goes into detail about o'toole, harris, burton, reed etc and their drinking exploits
Peter is just the bees neez
Great. Now, please post Dick's interview with the great Gene Kelly.
I think he was born to play TE Lawrence. They both kinda look alike.
Wait! Is "NBA Jam TE" named after this guy!?
@@Revelian1982 Yup. Tournament Edition Lawrence.
@@DenkyManner Wow! What spaced out parents! It's like Frank Zappa who called his daughter Moon Unit.
Except Lawrence was 5’-5” and O’Toole was 6’-4”
@@Revelian1982😆😆😆
What a wonderful man!
By getting inebriated each night, socializing until 1 am, then trying to fall asleep by 2-3 am on a week night you are slowly moving toward a long sleep. You either do it in a sanitorium while monitored or during a self administered bed rest at home. Nobody can outsmart medicine.
Sober? What in the world was going on in the life of Peter, that great poser king of all posers.

Father, O’Toole God…..
It’s because he was usually drunk half way into the movie and passed out
Plenty
It's a long movie.
Peter Seamus O'Toole (Connemara, 2 de agosto de 1932-Londres, 14 de diciembre de 2013), conocido como Peter O'Toole, fue un actor irlandés, célebre sobre todo a partir de su interpretación como protagonista en la película Lawrence de Arabia (1962).
He was born in Leeds Yorkshire not Ireland.
I have got two movie DVDS of
Peter O'Toole with
Omar Sharif
and Anthony Quinn in
Lawrence Of Arabia
with Sian Phillips in
Murphy's War
I am dedicating these movie DVDS to my old school friends who are both sisters and I hope to see them both again very soon to Chris Marie and Hester Brand from Billyxxxxx
Florence of Arabia , otherwise known as Plenty O' Tool.
Peter No Tool.
My Favourite Yardarm.
No
i never finished it either, i started watching one day and a few minutes in i noticed it was 4 hrs long, then i gave up immediately
I first saw it from the back of my parent's car (drive in movie) when I was about 6. Fell asleep a couple of reels in. Then about 10 years ago I tried watching it on my laptop and got bored. However last week I watched a new restored print on a good sized TV and it was marvelous.On the other hand, I tried watching Beckett recently and got very bored, very fast.
@@karenkaren3189 well you're much older than me then, i was able to first see in full about a year ago on youtube for free, i watched it for about 20 mins on my phone. then i gave up. but you're probably right, its better viewed as it's meant to be viewed
@@karenkaren3189 i turn 33 years old in 5 months
@@Jeremy_the_unfallible_n-aYou are trolling.
Amphetamine End alcohol you can stay up all night long
What's the point even in asking those questions? He clearly doesn't remember because of blackouts.
Dribble dribble
Was he drunk during this interview or were this kind of talk and mannerisms just the way he were?
As sober as I've seen him. Check out his Johnny Carson interview when he's drunk and high. Carson was an absolute master of a host to have been able to get anything out of O'Toole in that state.
Wait until you see him fried and giggly after trying to "cut back"
Sober as a judge here. Oh You’ll know when see him ‘on the sauce’
All the greatest actors and actresses never really watch themselves on the big screen, can understand why. Love and adore hearing him impersonate Kate The Great ( Katherine Hepburn). They really did love and respect each other. The Lion in Winter is so remarkable. A true masterpiece, so is Lawrence of Arabia. And also love how he laughed about the oldest looking Welshman I have ever seen. Peter O Toole always so handsome and sexy, no matter what much he drank and smoked. He had this natural presence and commanding spellbinding aura about him. 😍🥰😘🤩😂🤣👏🏻🏆✨🌟🥵🤤😆🇮🇪👑⚜️🫶🏻♥️❤️📺💎
O Toole was from Derbyshire, the nearest he ever got to Ireland was to check his tax breaks.
He considered himself irish
@@DerekDerekDerekDerekDerekDerek He just pretended to be Irish.
No one has; it's too damned long
The Ruling Class I found irritating & overlong.
Lawrence of Arabia classic for sure.
I haven't seen it all in one go, because it's plodding, pointless, overrated, boring crap.
T.E. Lawrence was a real man, and the outcome of the war in the Middle East affects us to this day. His exploits made Saudi Arabia available to BP.
Definitely is the best movie ever
@@ELLIOT1311 If you've only seen one movie.
Said no one ever
you have awful taste
That movie was the most boring thing I have ever seen.
Stop smoking. It's awful.
--------------------------- bet they were Dunhill's (stronger than marlboro) thank goodness studio had industrial ventilation system or dick would of needed a oxygen tent......
I don’t think he’s listening.
@@garyfoster3854 ha ha
He indeed has
The film was ridiculously overlong, and O'Toole looked nothing like Colonel Lawrence.
I bought a Bluray disc of the movie and it took me three days to watch because it was such a long and boring movie.
Your obviously under 30 lol
