      What was interesting to me was how much he connects the films he worked on with where he was at in his life at the time. More than what the films themselves mean to him or anything like that. A real "working actor" as they say. Such a great guy.

    • @TatankaTaylor
      @TatankaTaylor 3 года назад +7

      He never says anything negative about Roseanne Barr either. This despite Barr going extremely bonkers in the last 10 tears after drinking that Fox News Kool-Aid. She wasn't like that back in the days when they did the original series. Unfortunately she watched too much Conservative media and that screwed her up to the point that she's barely rational. Blaming everything on a drug or pill for her insane outbursts.

    I love your films. I grew up knowing you as Fred Flinstone and slowly grew into knowing that you were a real person. and a great actor. I love how you have a good voice for a fatherly role model and that helped me out. I always heard in my head your voice when I asked myself "what would my father think?" I do love and admire all the things you do I hope you love the films that you do because you have made a legacy that rivals that of the greats. I hope to see you in films soon and possibly in person if you ever visit southern Utah.
