While promoting "History of Violence" at the 2004 Toronto International Film Festival, costar Ed Harris caused some tension when describing his own notion of "violence."
You got a mean streak in you Sturmraist you know that, Sturmraist you got a mean streak. You bring that shit up, a' my volume, you were on a bad, when I brought it up to you, you'd harbor it, you'd harbor it a long, long while and you'd be right, Fuck the Machine? Fuck the Machine. FUCK THE MACHINE!!! What is this courtesy class, you're fucked Sturmraist.
this is an incredible actor, on a whim and a moments notice, showing you what violence is: irrational, impulsive, triggered, uncertain, fearful, hateful...so many things he showed in just seconds. he was ACTING. he wasnt mad, he answered the question in an atristic way and with more of a punch than any combination of words.
No.. I take that back. After lookin @ it a second time, this video was clearly edited.. Given how old that movie was, I'm sure i'd know by know if he really had a melt down like that. BTW, History of Violence is a classic and needs a sequel or a prequel
I'm pretty certain the people at that conference didn't think "nigga" when referencing Harris. This was in Canada... most of the people who use the word "nigga" can't stand cold weather.
You can always spot the truly great actors when they have the ability to flip a switch to a scary persona and make everyone believe, albeit for a small portion of time, that they're actually angry.
Not a treasure, just a great actor. National treasures should be people who help other animals, including humans, since we are animals ourselves. Essentially, people who do good for humans and other species of animals that aren't human. Those people are national treasures.
I think this says a LOT about how GREAT a performer Ed Harris is that he can SILENCE THE ROOM and CONFUSE EVERYONE within a few seconds like this. It's also funny that most people have so many different reactions to it.
I know it’s my fault but if nobody talks about it at breakfast tomorrow morning and I do better in school... I know he maybe won’t be how he is anymore...right?
@@tradewins He meant that an Oscar is not important. Many of the greats never got one, or got enough. Those awards often go to mediocrity. That's what he meant was not important. Harris is a great actor without one of those awards.
Another great performance by Sir Edward Harris! Nothing compared to his magnificent dance routine in that oscar laden cinematic masterpiece "Creepshow", but riveting, nonetheless.
the guy is a fuck1ng idiot, seems to have anger issues and whatnot, he's there to talk about violence, not to act violently, he gets paid to act in films, not outside of it, and all you saying this is briliiant, what an actor, etc, are a bunch of mor0ns, i'm really disappointed at the human behind the actor.
I saw this a while ago and thought the guy was being a dick. Now I see it, he didn't hurt anybody, it was a different response than anticipated, it actually seemed interesting to me, on the nature of violence, it's random, disturbing, uncomfortable and often irrational. I'm either looking too much into it or this guy lost the plot.
Ed Harris , I Love you as a true fan I really agree with what little you said ,But it meant a lot. I do not feel it was a melt down. You said its violence in a movie and that's all it is a movie ,That's what actors and directors get paid for. if People are against it stay home , Shut Up , Don't watch it ! Keep up the good work Mr. Harris.
Ed Harris has been honorably and dutifully the husband and father for more than 32 years, ... to the same family. The man is a 'rock'! He has never been jaded by his successful career. And his acting skills are impeccable, as witnessed by many of the reactions here to this, 'FOX NN' type, edited presentation.
What's funny is that, bad editing aside, this makes complete sense. He's a naturally intense man, but all he is doig is explaining something. Anyone who can't see that is dim
Yes, it's clearly edited and taken out of context, but the way he did that was still a little uncomfortable. How would people response if someone just started banging a table and throwing cups in a really realistic way. I'd be pretty speechless for a minute.
+Amy It was a very stupid way for the obviously inarticulate Ed Harris to "prove a point" because that was obviously a heavy glass banged up against the wall and it was thrown with such stupid force that it could have bounced and hit others who were obviously sitting nearby.
+Amy Wrong again. Ed Harris threw a glass against the wall with such great force that it could have bounced off the wall and easily hit someone. The others sitting nearby and the photographers rightfully got up and quickly and quickly to leave his area. Anyone can see this except the most biases partisan, and you've clearly proven your bias when gloating about what a great "man" Ed Harris is. I've seen adolescent thugs make worse points far better articulated. As the owner of several group homes that treat adolescent violent behavior, I've also seen Ed Harris' kind of "statement" go wrong too many times. Apparently, those sitting around him agreed by their actions to hastily clear away from the immature maniac.
+EmceeLorder Exactly. A lot was cut between introduction of Ed Harris and his slamming of the table, so how can we really respond? This was taken way out of context, and I can't believe the amount of people (comments) that don't realize that. smh.
Agreed. Its been heavily edited. 1: I believe Somebody asked Ed Harris what was Violence. 2: This press conference went on for MUCH longer than this video would suggest and 3:.. ..i over shot myself there sorry about that.
There's a comment further down from someone who apparently was there: the moderator supposedly banged the table to get everyone's attention at the beginning. This pissed off Harris I guess so he made a point about it at the end.
I LOVE Ed Harris in any movie. He’s got a very commanding presence and is a fantastic actor. He was awesome in this movie and “Enemy at the Gates” is another one he was great in.
He showed them what violence looks like and then asked them the same question explored in the film he's there to promote. Perfect demonstration of someone who knows how to get their point across in a powerful way. Brilliant man.
So that's a "Canadian" thing to call it a meltdown? So no other country or news media, journalist, etc would want to call that, whether it's accurate or not, a "meltdown" in your small mind? That's a " Canadian" thing to you? Gimme a break! What a lame ass comment!
Without a doubt one of the most underrated actors of our time . One of my fsvorite. You have to check him out in the movie Jackknife. Unbelievable proformance. Thanks Ed. You are a Great Great actor.
It's been said the great actors have the great rage- the ability to go from calm to angry really quickly and scare the shit out of you. Having said that, I think this guy was either having a bad day or is crazy.
Huh? Look you are not looking at this for what it is. This is not a movie set...there are no directors, writers, or scripts, here. This guy just acted like a complete "ass" douchebag. But you want to give him a pass because he's from Hollywood. Or you want to call it art because the person doing it is an actor. Wake up... I nor I hope you should give anyone a pass for acting out like a Sh*t head.
@@swampcrypt I love it when people claim to be "so-in-the-know" of art and the rest of us are just a bunch of philistines. I have a toilet bowl in my house with a log in it, that you and your modern art friends are welcomed to lavish with artistic praise if you're so inclined. *Remember kiddo, by your own rules of what constitute art.... if art is subjective then YOU or your high artistic friends cannot criticize my taste. Therefore I'm as much of a philistine as you.
Hahahaha I love this. Not a damn thing wrong with him in my opinion. Sometimes you gotta vent and he just answered the question in the most honest way possible.
@@jurjenvanderhoek316 Most people don't, tho. They just know it by watching pixels. To experience physical violence in real life, or even just the threat of it, is a different beast. And I think this movie fails delivering that. Only movie where violence really felt real was Once Were Warriors, for me. No goddamn square-jawed prime male fighting off thugs... just a drunken macho man ruining his life and family with his fists. Violence is deranged, and Ed was going for that.
+Chazz Jocazzi I don't think he's ever HAD hair! Not even in Creepshow(1982), where he was dancin' to cheezy music that even Disco Stu would have second thoughts about. Now that was scary.
Goremeister100 Yep, but he embarassed himself in that movie trying to move on the dance floor to that really crappy 80's tune. He probably got what he deserved in his exit scene. Dear God, that was even scarier than The Crate! Don't play that funky music, white boy. Ever. No, seriously.
+blackpeter70 Yeah, he was a big goofball in CREEPSHOW. I'm still wondering what happened in this video though. He really lost it. Needs to lighten up a little. Sheeeshhh.
This is a man on the edge of. A man who cannot take another moment of pain without lashing out at its purveyor. This is a man who will no longer suffer any fool without giving the full his full reward. A man of deep conviction and fury. A man of pent up aggression and sexual tension turned bravado and machismo. This man, is… the man of all mans. We are all him.
flames flyers It's absolutely wild that Ed Harris managed to steal this bit from Eric Andre, even though Ed Harris said it first. Just goes to show you the comedic genius of Eric Andre.
This is definitely edited to a large degree, but I can't find the whole conference for viewing to render any logical conclusions about it in regards to Mr Harris, except that this clip's editor is kinda douchey.
Edited out of context. Harris did not have this reaction at that moment and was in the middle of describing the deeper nature of violence. He’s being physical which may alarm people but it’s a bit of an eccentric way to make his point.
Ed Harris accurately portrayed my father when he'd come home after a miserable day at work.
Hahahaha!!!
I can fix you. 😉
Are you my brother?
That’s a coward right there, that’s why I sent my packing

this is an incredible actor, on a whim and a moments notice, showing you what violence is: irrational, impulsive, triggered, uncertain, fearful, hateful...so many things he showed in just seconds.
he was ACTING. he wasnt mad, he answered the question in an atristic way and with more of a punch than any combination of words.

No.. I take that back. After lookin @ it a second time, this video was clearly edited.. Given how old that movie was, I'm sure i'd know by know if he really had a melt down like that. BTW, History of Violence is a classic and needs a sequel or a prequel

Pretentious.
That's because it was shocking. If it becomes the norm people will habituate and violence will continue to perpetuate and destroy. Idiot.

Ed Harris, one of my all-time favourite actors. He's got it all 👍
Except a hairline.
That wasn't a meltdown, that was just a teaser trailer performed live.
It was a poop transformed into a fart
I think this says a LOT about how GREAT a performer Ed Harris is that he can SILENCE THE ROOM and CONFUSE EVERYONE within a few seconds like this.
It's also funny that most people have so many different reactions to it.
He does it and he wins awards. I do it and they make me take pills. What a world.
I'm sure you could do the same if you flipped out during a press conference too!
Two days ago I watched him in Mother!, excellent performance of him as well
But even funnier is how libtards justify every moronic reaction of another libtard even when it's quite obvious that Ed is a narcissistic egomaniac.

Absolutely brilliant. You could say a thousand words or more. Or you could be a powerful actor like him...

But we already know what is the essence of violence. I think his behavior is just totally deranged.
@@jurjenvanderhoek316 Most people don't, tho. They just know it by watching pixels. To experience physical violence in real life, or even just the threat of it, is a different beast.
And I think this movie fails delivering that. Only movie where violence really felt real was Once Were Warriors, for me. No goddamn square-jawed prime male fighting off thugs... just a drunken macho man ruining his life and family with his fists. Violence is deranged, and Ed was going for that.
All he wants is his hair back. THUD ! My Hair back. THUD ! THUD !....fwoing, there's goes the Glass. My Hair back !...OK, Ed ? THUD !
Kudos on the written sound effects, lol!
+Chazz Jocazzi I don't think he's ever HAD hair! Not even in Creepshow(1982), where he was dancin' to cheezy music that even Disco Stu would have second thoughts about. Now that was scary.
+blackpeter70 Yes he had hair in CREEPSHOW.
Goremeister100 Yep, but he embarassed himself in that movie trying to move on the dance floor to that really crappy 80's tune. He probably got what he deserved in his exit scene. Dear God, that was even scarier than The Crate! Don't play that funky music, white boy. Ever. No, seriously.
+blackpeter70 Yeah, he was a big goofball in CREEPSHOW. I'm still wondering what happened in this video though. He really lost it. Needs to lighten up a little. Sheeeshhh.
It must've been the weak, pitiful, apologetic applause he received from the audience.
underrated as usual, incredible as 'Remy' kid lover detective in Boston city, in Gone Baby Gone
He’s pissed because he didn’t get the GlenGary leads
Probably just mad he had to drive a Hyundai to get there.
Few would get this lol
Glengary Glen Ross.
xjusticex2013x THAT'S My name......
Put that coffee down
You see this watch? This watch cost more than your car!
This is a man on the edge of. A man who cannot take another moment of pain without lashing out at its purveyor. This is a man who will no longer suffer any fool without giving the full his full reward. A man of deep conviction and fury. A man of pent up aggression and sexual tension turned bravado and machismo. This man, is… the man of all mans. We are all him.
Eric andre did it better
I had such a profound experience when I saw this and realized he stole it from Eric! How dare he!
flames flyers It's absolutely wild that Ed Harris managed to steal this bit from Eric Andre, even though Ed Harris said it first. Just goes to show you the comedic genius of Eric Andre.
....fantastic
This is definitely edited to a large degree, but I can't find the whole conference for viewing to render any logical conclusions about it in regards to Mr Harris, except that this clip's editor is kinda douchey.
William?
Lawrence? Least thats what your profile looks like.
cvc Lawrence? van Cleef would eat him and William alive
William is like how Ed Harris' hand got.
Edited out of context. Harris did not have this reaction at that moment and was in the middle of describing the deeper nature of violence. He’s being physical which may alarm people but it’s a bit of an eccentric way to make his point.
May 2006....this has gotta be one of the oldest videos on RUclips
