I could listen to Mr. Huston for hours on end.
100%
Yes, loved him in the 77 hobbit as gandalf.
Yes, he was quite the man!
Love to see the full interview with this larger than life legend, John Huston.
It's all here, but in segments.
Love the way he speaks and his phrasing
that product placement at the start was hilarious. can you imagine talk show hosts doing that today 😂
It would be better if they did.
I'd prefer anything like that rather than the insipid and highly offensive "free home solar panels and Tesla powerwall that the United States government will pay for, at no expense to you" spamvertisements that RUclips/Google insist on throwing in my face every 5 minutes or less...
They do it everyday? All the morning and afternoon shows are selling products.
Today it's more subtle.
its funny you say that....Almost EVERY podcast nowadays does this!
its true what they say...History repeats itself!!
What a giant of a man, in every respect! 🙌🙌🙌
Great man as was his father.
If I had a penny for everytime I've heard an actor say they dont watch their movies...might have a dollar.
I know it’s weird isn’t it. They’re always asked if they watch their own movies, they always say no, and everyone is always slightly surprised.
@@BomChickyBowWow I would assume they would be curious how it turned out, filming a movie vs the final product are two very different experiences
He’s a director first, acted in just a few films (and Myra Breckinridge really was an awful film, so I understand why he wouldn’t watch that one).
*I really liked the few scenes that he gave himself as a "bit-actor" in "The Treasure of the Sierra Madre."*
When a man could smoke a cigar on stage-priceless!
2:30- it's been done many times; Hitchcock of course famously remade The Man Who Knew Too Much, Cecil B DeMille remade The Ten Commandments, Michael Mann remade Heat (or rather, Heat itself was a remake of his earlier movie LA Takedown), and Michael Haneke and Takashi Shimizu were both behind the American remakes of two of their most famous horror movies- Funny Games and The Grudge, respectively.
And also Hitchcock remade The Man Who Knew Too Much, John Ford remade Red Dust, both with Gable (called Mogambo for the remake), and Frank Capra remade Lady for a Day (called Pocketful of Miracles for the remake)
John Huston and Orson Welles, two men I could listen to for hours.
Yesterday was so much better than today - you hear a name today and I say who and these stars today are praised for doing nothing .
This interview was done before what was (arguably) his best acting performance in Polanskis Chinatown.
My all time favorite film. Unmatched.
@@georgecollord7650 It's great, Nicholsons best film, in my top 3 at least.
And if i was to make a top 10 list there would be a couple of John Huston directed movies on it as well, maybe The Man Who Would Be King and The Maltese Falcon. (Key Largo is another good one and The Treasure of the Sierra Madre.)
This interview makes me wanna throw away my phone.
Then how would you watch the interview.
Dummy.
Love the cigar on set!
And to think how many great films he still had yet to do!
If he had only directed 'The Maltese Falcon' and 'The Treasure of The Sierra Madre' he'd be on that short list of the all time great directors
He is seen by many as being on the list of all time great directors but I think had he only made those two films he wouldn't be so much because everyone would say his filmography was too small, people seem to love The African Queen, Key Largo, Heaven Knows Mr. Allison, The Asphalt Jungle, Annie, The Misfits, Prizzi's Honor and The Man Who Would Be King among other's so he is known for other stuff too.
@@Mr.Goodkat What you said is true although if you look at Orson Welles directorial output it's even smaller than Mr Huston's and yet the
the influence and presence that Welles has on the minds of directors and critics of film is infinitely larger. Would you not agree? just saying
@@spactick Likely because of Citizen Kane, I'd attribute most of it to that.
@@Mr.GoodkatHis later work is also phenomenal.
Such a voice
Two great minds - thank you for posting! Huston's autobiography is well worth reading.
You mean Lawrence Groebel's "The Hustons"? Love that book.
@@bikefixer "An open Book" is his autobiography.
@@bikefixer I'll check it out - the man was a genius.
Great interview
This is almost like a "Chris Farley Show" skit with Cavett asking if Huston would remake his classic films and listing them off.
I liked him in Chinatown
The Man Who Would Be King, and The Life and Times of Judge Roy Bean are 2 of my favorite films he directed.
I don't know what it is about Dick Cavet that bugs me but he seems awkward during his interviews. I really get the feeling that he is interrogating his guest rather than having a conversation with him or her like the good ones do. It sounds to me like he's reading questions from a prepared list.
Thank you for sharing this story 💖🙏.
Please upload the next section where he talks about Ireland. Thank you
Hope he got to see himself in Chinatown two years later.
No replacements for Huston and his great actors .
Accord to Wikipedia, the original print was destroyed in the 1965 MGM vault fire. In 1975, the studio decided to release the uncut film and asked Huston if he had a copy. He did, at one time, but it had since been lost.
Yeah, if you could release the whole conversation at once, that'd be great.
He made a lot of films on location because he could go hunting or fishing….. still some of them are great
Damn, I'd love to see the original "director's cut" of Red Badge of Courage! Anybody know anything more about it? Seems it's lost to the dustbin of Hollywood.
MGM lost it or it was destroyed in a fire. Huston seems not to know the background of why the test audiences left the theater during the film. Apparently there was a power struggle happening at MGM Studios between Dore Schary, who supported the film and Louis B Mayer who didn't. Supposedly Mayer informed the audience in some way that they were about to see a comedy. So when the film played and was a grim story many left. The actor Royal Dano was supposedly fantastic in the scene and probably would've gotten an Oscar nomination.
Qué voz tan hermosa me recuerda a Gregory Peck que trabajo con el en Mony Dick una de sus grandes películas casi a la altura del libro
@@nobodyexpectssi4654 preciosa anécdota muchas gracias
I agree, Robert Mitchum was a great actor.
And a highly intelligent man with a legitimate photographic memory.
@@AmericasChoice and great with accents too....
@@rowley555 Yup. apparently, when filming a western that had Native Americans as extras, he was able to perfectly match their accents in their native tongue after hearing them speak one time.
HUSTON must have seen himself act in Sierra Madre as he directed it.
Huston learned early on, probably on advice from his father, to only shoot just enough film so that editors would not have anything to work with to change the tenor of the film. He also shot in cronological sequence whenever possible to help the actors. I think the problem with Red Badge of Courage is that he shot WAY too much film, which allowed the studio/editor to chop it up. Too bad, I have heard that the director's cut was a masterpiece. The same thing happened to Welles, The Magnificent Amberson's, another lost director's cut masterpiece...
Un genio anda suelto
I would like to think he enjoyed The Hobbit, because his talent, so considerable at anything movie related his put his hands on, to agree to do The Hobbit, and it be a musical, I think he must have had an affection for Tolkien.
gods voice.
He acted in many of his films that he directed, so how could he not have seen them?
You can act in a film, but not see the results on the actual film running on a projector, or during editing.
I got the impression they were just talking about the films he acted in that were directed by other people.
I thought he was Anthony Quinn. But I am curious to watch the "The Treasure of the Sierra Madre" after watching a clip. I think he was a great actor and director.
I recommend watching it
Hemingway did come back. I think Carver gave him a boost-no Hemingway, no Carver.
Brando..ugh!
Dick Cavett has always had one major drawback in his interviews, his ego and insecurities insist that he always at every possible opportunity, try and show everyone how clever, witty and smart he is.
*isn't*
I don't get that impression from Cavett at all honestly.
@@landlubber541 that's pretty dense.
Huston suffered from extreme flatulence 💨and would smoke cigars to mask the stench to no avail 💨💨
He's so pretentious.
You dont know the meaning of the word. He is one of america's great artists.
