Save for Daniel Day-Lewis nobody really wins two let alone MULTIPLE Oscar’s. Not being historically great is not an indictment on his talent or appreciation. T
Agreed! Anytime I think of him that's what I associate him with because I was the first time I ever saw him. I've not left a movie theater many times in my life being out astounded by the performance on screen but his did that to me
Underrated? His net worth is 380 million dollars and he makes 10 million dollars per movie ... And just look up his list of awards and nominations. It is quite impressive.
Always amusing to see people rip off the top comment by only slightly rewording it a year after the original was posted.... It's amazing what scrubs will do for absolutely meaningless likes. Maybe one day you'll actually have an original thought of your own... then again that's probably a longshot anyways.
That uNdErRaTeD actor literally got an Oscar nomination on his first film. LMFAO He's one of the most respected actors of all time. The word underrated is one of the most self explanatory words in the English language and yet Gen Z couldn't use the word properly if their life depended on it.
Well back then lot of them were similar actually. Because acting is a real art and profession. Nowadays they cast based on body etc, the movies themselves are not made where acting can shine at all. It is not in focus anymore...sadly

At 83 years of age, I have had many favorite actors and actresses. But I'm here to tell you that. Edward Norton is my very, very favorite. He is excellent
He definitely got my vote when the very first time I've ever saw his work in Primal Fear I was awestruck for real Then I watched him against Robert DiNiro in Score. Robert DiNiro has been my favorite actor for a long time Ever since The Deer Hunter, never heard of him even though I had seen The Godfather 1&2, that's also the movie that I fell for another actor and he was The Incomparable Christopher Walken😅 another great actor. I admire d his work in The Suicide Kings but I felt so sorry for him when He had the hottest Feevah in the World and searched for the only cure for More Cowbell.😊😁👍🏻😅😄😂😂😂😅😂🤣😅🤣👍🏻✌🏻

Alyssa forget that these things are not awarded in a vacuum. I think it’s almost always a hard call between two or three of the nominated people and sometimes all of them.
All the statements by fellow fans !! We are all in agreement and Im so happy to add my humble agreement he is a treasure to the entertainment industry.
We were classmates/friends in high school. Great guy and very very bright. I don’t believe anyone saw at that time the level of success he eventually unleashed on the acting world. His role in American History X is uniquely one of the best performances I’ve seen.
Me too......Stephen Colbert is very good but there's only ONE David Letterman and he is so special!! :) I have a flashlight that says in big letters on it "I FLOAT!" & everytime I pick it up, I sing the "Will it float ~ will it float?" from that odd segment he did occasionally where they'd drop all sorts of crazy things in a huge round tub of water that was on the stage!!! Silly but fun....stuck in my brain!! ;)
Ed Norton is one of the best actors. He gets into character with such ease and believability. After I saw him in Primal Fear, I was sold. I flipped out at the end of the movie. He is so convincing. I try to watch all his movies because he is such a superb actor. He has such range, convincingly playing either a good guy or a bad guy. One of the greatest actors.
Mr. Edward Norton is such a class act and a true gentleman. When you see Dave reading out all his movies and accomplishments, just look at Norton's reaction. He was feeling so proud and humble at the same time. He's always been one of my favorites.
How old is this Norton on Letterman Show? Letterman has been off TV for years. Your comment is listed at 12 hours ago. Help. I'm confused on the dates.
Yeah, I agree. I, like many, have watched Fight Club I just don't know how many times, my favorite of his. But he really gets to act alot as the lead also in American History X. Amazing movie, seen that too a number of times. I would recommend 25th Hour also. As far as being humble. He seems that he is. But when Dave was checking off some of his career highlights, I think Edward was thinking more along the lines of "have you seen any of my movies(?), and would you care to comment?!". But nope, nothing. Dave overall, seemed dismissive of Edward and at the very least just tolerant, and I think mocking when he said you're a regular Rich Little. If anyone didn't catch that, then you haven't watched enough of Letterman. I honestly thought Letterman was overall indifferent to edward. I. on the other hand, appreciate him a great deal, and have, since he started way back when..I think he's excellent.

Wow. This is one of the greatest talk show interviews I’ve ever seen. Edward Norton is so quick and smart. Dave, of course, is a complete genius. He knows exactly when to lay back and exactly when to inch forward. This is gold star entertainment that was thrilling to watch.
@@howardsternisbatman I think he's a bit hit and miss. Gets some big stars on there, definetely funnier than the American late night guys but it's more informal/entertainment than say Parkinson.
Ed Norton is one of my very top favorites. His acting skill is second to none of all times, in my very opinion. Some actors got great roles that made them stars but Ed Norton makes every of his role memorable. He brings his characters to another level and even in an ensemble cast his character outshines others.
Everyone always talks about his big, showy roles like Primal Fear, American History X, and Fight Club. And deservedly so. He was brilliant in those. But what convinced me that he was top 5 of his generation were the smaller roles, the subtler ones, like The People vs Larry Flynt, Kingdom of Heaven, and The Painted Veil.
Edward Norton is one of my all time favourite actors. I just love his very special demeanour along with the film roles that he tends to fit so well into.
Because God forbid they humanize the bad people ! How Derrick had a real issue with what happened to his father . Then realizes when he is able to see the human side of others he was programed to see as his enemy he becomes a decent person . No they can't do this it's just wrong !
It's not only amazingly weird to hear Dave say the titles "Fight Club" and "Keeping The Faith" back to back, it is also a testimony of Norton's versatile talents.
Edward Norton is the most underrated actor. And seems like a really decent bloke to boot. Primal Fear and American History X are two of the most brilliant movies I've seen, and it was his character in both that blew me away.
1 million percent agree. The change from white boy nerd to hard-core Aerian could not have been portrayed any better. Ethan Suplee was brilliant too,,from Randy in my name is Earl to evil racist,,,no type casting here
Edward Norton is one of the best actors of his generation...and so humble, he literally looks like he's not sure what all the fuss is about. The difference between a true artist and a celebrity
I’ve watched this so many times. And I’m a lawyer and he was fabulous in the People v. Larry Flint. And so was Woody Harrelson, another underrated actor.
Underrated actors of all time? Have you been living under a rock? For just about his entire, long, career I don't think I've heard his name mentioned without it being accompanied by heaps of praise for his acting talent.
I think that's one of the best interviews I've seen in a long time and it looks like David really enjoyed it. He's an interviewer's dream because he puts the interviewer at ease and makes him laugh.
I honestly think Dave usually hogs the conversation and seems to have a huge ego. Not as much in this conversation, but based on most "interviews" of his I've seen.

I just watched Motherless Brooklyn yesterday on DVD & was astounded by his performance. All the actors were terrific & I love them all, but geez his was an incredible part & he nailed it entirely. BAV
I, personally, would be exhausted just trying to keep up my end of a conversation with him. He's definitely an actor that makes any movie he's in worth watching. He draws attention to himself by just being himself, which is a gift not many people can achieve.
A lot of accolades for Ed Norton here - I agree wholeheartedly. Extremely talented, very well spoken, and incredibly unpretentious. He is one of my favorite actors of all time.
I know a fellow who is a private pilot in Kenya. He flew Ed Norton and said he was a great guy. Very friendly and unpretentious. That character comes through 100% here.
@@trumanupchurch4407 You can look forward to a book about Milos Forman later in 2023 (as you might know, Edward Norton starred in Forman’s “The People vs. Larry Flynt” and later directed him in “Keeping the Faith”). You do not know me, but I have worked as a journalist and film critic in Denmark for years, also covering Cannes for Danish television, so, yes, I did. You can check out my latest book, “Beyond Television”, for which I interviewed TV creators/showrunners/directors such as David Chase, David Simon, Nic Pizzolatto, Mary Harron, Peter Gould, Tom Fontana, Lesli Linka Glatter, Jay Duplass, Beau Willimon, Derek Cianfrance, Jesse Armstrong and Sam Levinson.
I remember reading Primal Fear, and thinking it was the best book I’d read in ages. Not long after, the movie came out. It was excellent, and my first time seeing Edward Norton. I hoped he’d get more good roles because he was so good. He’s been in a lot of movies since, and they were all good. Ed Norton, imo, is a fantastic actor.
I love this guy. I love the way they cast him to split personaties! He's done it at least 3 movies. When he co starred with Richard Gear that was the best one. Truly talented.
Ed Norton is the new breed of actor picking up where the other greats left off..I saw him in Primal Fear..and so said this guy is good and is going to go places..he was sensational..and he seems down to earth..good luck in all your endeavors but I don’t think you will need it. You have incredible talent!!
I fell in love with Edward Norton ever since I watched him in "PRIMAL FEAR" he should of already won academy awards by now, he has been over looked. Adore and love this man
Ed Norton is on my best top ten actors ever.❤
I think he's a Method Actor.
fascinating
Whhhhhhhhat?
He's great in every role I've seen him. And we should recognize the uncanny timing of the bassist at 12:06 who landed Norton's joke perfectly.
One of the finest on the planet, his performances so nuanced people forget he's acting ! and underrate him.
Ed Norton is probably the most underappreciated underrated actors ever . He should have won numerous academy awards.
Totally

He's not underrated nor underappreciated.

Edward Norton is fantastic in everything he does. David Letterman is so unbelievable at keeping itvall hilarious. GOAT of late night!
He is one fantastic actor. Cute & funny too.
Love Edward Norton, think he's a very talented actor who deserves more credit.
A lot of accolades for Ed Norton here - I agree wholeheartedly. Extremely talented, very well spoken, and incredibly unpretentious. He is one of my favorite actors of all time.
I know a fellow who is a private pilot in Kenya. He flew Ed Norton and said he was a great guy. Very friendly and unpretentious. That character comes through 100% here.
And equally a great actor.
I interviewed him a month ago, and he was very friendly and funny. Such a gifted actor and storyteller.
@@trumanupchurch4407 You can look forward to a book about Milos Forman later in 2023 (as you might know, Edward Norton starred in Forman’s “The People vs. Larry Flynt” and later directed him in “Keeping the Faith”). You do not know me, but I have worked as a journalist and film critic in Denmark for years, also covering Cannes for Danish television, so, yes, I did. You can check out my latest book, “Beyond Television”, for which I interviewed TV creators/showrunners/directors such as David Chase, David Simon, Nic Pizzolatto, Mary Harron, Peter Gould, Tom Fontana, Lesli Linka Glatter, Jay Duplass, Beau Willimon, Derek Cianfrance, Jesse Armstrong and Sam Levinson.

@@LasDellas Congratulations on all of your successes!🙏💜✌️
I remember reading Primal Fear, and thinking it was the best book I’d read in ages. Not long after, the movie came out. It was excellent, and my first time seeing Edward Norton. I hoped he’d get more good roles because he was so good.
He’s been in a lot of movies since, and they were all good.
Ed Norton, imo, is a fantastic actor.
If his character killed a rabbi in primal fear, Norton probably wouldn't have worked much at all after.
Been my favorite from the first time I saw him act. I couldn’t pick a favorite performance because each was brilliant. Love Ed
I love this guy. I love the way they cast him to split personaties! He's done it at least 3 movies. When he co starred with Richard Gear that was the best one. Truly talented.
That was terrific. I know he has a reputation for being difficult, but he is very entertaining and interesting.
The Painted Veil, was a movie that he was amazing in. I sobbed.
Ed quite clear to me, is a genuinely nice man.
Norton is not known for being a nice guy. Anything but.
@@timthompson8297 I’ve heard that, though it’s not in evidence here.
@@timthompson8297 and we must believe everything we hear/read, and continue to spread these undeniable truths far and wide.🙄😑
A great actor deserves more awards .
Ed Norton is the new breed of actor picking up where the other greats left off..I saw him in Primal Fear..and so said this guy is good and is going to go places..he was sensational..and he seems down to earth..good luck in all your endeavors but I don’t think you will need it. You have incredible talent!!
Based on this interview, I would love to have every dinner conversation include Edward Norton.
