MICHAEL BIEHN Tells the Truth About Kurt Russell TOMBSTONE Rumors #insideofyou #michaelbiehn #terminator #tombstone #jamescameron 
Развлечения
Michael Biehn, Lance Henriksen and Bill Paxton (posthumously) deserve a lifetime achievement award for their work in si-fi films. They kept people like me entertained most of my life.
Bill Paxton was killed by a terminator, alien, and predator.
The three of them plus Jeanette Goldstein would always make such a great team talking about their work retrospectively - their group portion of the Aliens DVD commentary is endlessly heartwarming and hilarious too.
yeah i miss that time, nothing but BS movies being pumped out now!
YES!! I grew up on VigiIantes & Superheroes - I feel like I wish we lived in those times for real right now 😓
Kurt Russell belongs on that list as well. So many good sci-fi movies. Stargate and soldier and guardians of the galaxy being a few of my faves
Biehn's one of those rare actors who could play both the good and the bad guy flawlessly. Superb actor I always look forward to watching.
100% agree
He played a great psycho in The Abys. Although he wasn't really a psycho, he was suffering from depth sickness or what ever it was.
One of the most underrated guys out there for sure. Love him
I like him more as a good guy (Aliens, Terminator). Johnny Ringo was great though.
Anyone who can't play both is a type, not a great actor. Any truly great actor can do both. And there are a lot of them...they're not particularly rare.
Him playing the original Kyle Reese still gives me chills, the portrayal of a man tortured from the future is so timeless I can't help to but imagine how crazy it would be.
My fave film ever. So well acted and cool as fuck.
Kyle and Hicks ;)
There is only one as far as I’m concerned.
He was the star in Terminator.
Still my favorite character of the whole franchise. Really great performance.
Michael Biehn was headed for mega stardom, but lost out due to alcoholism. What a shame. I was so glad to see him in "Tombstone." He was incredible.
Dang I never knew he had a drinking problem
Is he clean now? He looks sober.
Not so sure MEGA but he was in quite a few really big movies usually supporting
I was happy to see him in the second season of The Mandalorian
James Cameron said he could have been huge either way but chose not to have a publicist like the big name actors and chose to be more of a family man instead of his entire life on a movie set.
Michael scared me as a kid in the Abyss. He played unhinged so well
it was that mustache man!
That's a good movie.
@@324cmac 4k release is next month. Pre-ordered!
@@324cmac It's a very good movie
He was so good in that role. Terrifying ! When he explains to his troop and his hands are shaking , brrrr. Gives me the chills.
Michael Biehn is so dependable and excellent in everything that he's been in. He definitely deserves more recognition.
"Tombstone" is fantastic.
All the actors and actresses were perfectly cast.
Michael Biehn as the Ringo was stellar.
Great performance.
The scene where he and Val Kilmer's "Doc" are conversing in Latin is my favorite.
Just a great film.
I have an "In Vino Veritas" tattoo because of this scene 👍
"the Ringo"? Can you tell us what a ringo is? His name was Johnny Ringo in the movie.
Yes, he was great as the Ringo. Kurt Russell was great as the Earp, too. And Val Kilmer was outstanding as Doc the Holiday!
What the cast!!!
I just watched Tombstone for the first time the other day and was really impressed. What a fantastic cast and visuals. Johnny Ringo and Doc were really great foils for one another.
“Why Johnny Ringo, you look like somebody just walked over your grave.”
Okay Lunger, lets do this @@justinbarnett9476
Both of my daughters love Tombstone. My eldest daughter used Val Kilmer's lines in school. So she wouldn't get in trouble for swearing.
Whoever directed Tombstone did a great job. Great movie with great characters. Loved Michael Biehn's character.
It's hard to believe that Michael Biehn is now 67 years old. He looks great and clearly takes care of himself.
He does. He looks great for his age.
Except for a decent portion of his adult life, he didn’t ‘take care’ of himself. He was very good at consuming alcohol, and that can do a real number on the body, especially the face. But I believe he jumped onto the wagon after being sued in 04 for breach of contract for being a pretty obnoxious drunk making The American. Im pretty sure he had a stroke and open heart surgery after that, as well. But if you look back to him in the ‘80s, his appearance has changed dramatically.
As a 57-year old woman I can say, he looks his age. Younger generations have a tendency to hear +65 and think elderly/wrinkled/aged, however 65 ain’t what it used to be, and the older you get, the more you see it. I will say, for everything he’s been through, he looks incredibly good, but I’d say it’s more genetic than anything. Some people just have solid genes and can withstand years of abusing their bodies and not look too bad on the other side.
Taken care of himself? Are you insane? He was a raging alcoholic for years, had a stroke, and open heart surgery. Yes, he looks decent considering those factors, but he doesn't look or sound anything like his younger or even middle aged self.
I met Michael once, he's a nice guy and doesn't have a chip on his shoulder like most people in Hollywood.
I don't think most people in Hollywood have a chip on their shoulder. I think you're probably thinking of the Hollywood elite whom you hear and read about in the tabloids - but even then, most of them are pretty down to earth if you were to have a one on one. One of the phrases I absolutely hate is when somebody meets someone famous and they describe them as being "down to earth". Yeah? No kidding? They were a person, and not an alien visiting our planet? I had no idea Brad Pitt could have a conversation with ol' Joe Schmoe, the plumber who fixed his leaking faucet. People are people. Some of them are a pleasure to talk to and some of them are total assholes.
I heard he is very fan friendly.
@@daverichards9141 He is! I spent a good 10 minutes talking about movies and comics with him!
@@doublewhopper67 What a poor baiting comment lol.
Must be nice. I saw him do a panel once and he came off as the biggest asshole. He spent nearly 10 minutes talking about how Stanley Kubrick was an awful director and full of himself, then immediately began talking about James Cameron being a real genius. Not saying Cameron isn't a genius, but to call Kubrick full himself like Cameron isn't... he def came off as someone with a chip on his shoulder.
Dude Michael had me googling that Johnny Depp thing before he cracked lol
Same. goddamn it. Got me good.
Rosenbaum's "I believed you! Fuck you!!" at the end is such gold. 🤣🤣🤣
Yeah that was great. I was buying it because I have a friend who actually does have a rare eye condition where he almost always wears sunglasses. But he also has very poor vision and limited color vision. It's not something that just suddenly happens to you either, lol.
Not gonna lie. I would have googled that too after this clip but thankfully i waited until it ended.😂
@@BeyondUselessMedia hey man, a win is a win and if someone’s gotta get one over me it’ll be Johnny Ringo, Corporal Hicks and Kyle Reese lol
Micheal's got a point about Stargate. Kurt looked grumpier there than in The Thing were everybody was freezing every day.
well... i mean... his character was supposed to be mourning the accidental shooting death of his son... so.... acting?
@@HypotenusLuvTriangle definitely a possibility...
anyways, he was way grumpier in Soldier.
well, wouldn't you be if you were in such a crappy movie? @@fergusdenoon1255
He's quite grumpy also in Dark Blue.
Maybe it was all the sand
Biehn, in the Terminator, anchored me as a fan and I noted to catch his other movies. Seemingly a steady ember in stardom he was a fortunate man that got to do that iconic scene with Linda Hamilton in her prime. Then went on to act with Sigorny Weaver in Aliens. Applause to his career in many films.
A second rate actor with first rate performances. Kinda like Christopher Lee, Vincent Price and Peter Cushing. They weren't in BIG movies but were EXCELLENT actors who did great jobs for movies that might have been forgettable without them.
@@xhagast3 of my very favorites
@@byefelicia8429 Nowadays we have Giancarlo Esposito in that category. NOT a leading man/MC but anything with him in it is better.
His role in Alien was non-pariel ; can't imagine anyone else in it.
Two manly chicks with stinky armpits… yeah, that’s some epic shit 😐
Biehn MADE those movies. The women were there for, I’d say eye candy, but clearly that’s not the case.
I went to a screening of Aliens hosted by Michael back in 2019, with a Q&A prior to the screening. He is very warm, a super nice guy with a great sense of humor. 100% class act and one of my favorites. He can make anything believable, like the JDD.
One of my favorite actors as a kid. Terminator, Aliens, Navy Seals, Abyss and ofc Tombstone.
He was awesome in a small role in The Rock too in the 90s.
@@olliesmith2890 yea he owned that part. I was upset seeing his character die so quickly.
@@joshuaphilbert7995 Indeed he was awesome in a small role.
I agree. He plays a good or a bad guy so well. My favorite 2 roles is him in Tombstone and Aliens. Great actor. I am never disappointed in what he brings to a role.
I saw Aliens on base in Italy at the theater. There's nothing like watching a "war movie" in a theater on a combat unit base. It was pretty awesome. Saw Platoon in the same theater. With a lot of Vietnam vets. That was surreal.
Met Michael at a Comic-Con in 2015. Really great guy, loved the conversation I had with him, the guy is a legit lover of cinema and comics!
My sister met him in 93 during the filming in Old Tucson. She said that him and Val Kilmer were the best ones. Val Kilmer was the first one to interact with her and her classmates.
Hahaha, when Michael put those specs on, I thought Jack Nicholson showed up!
@zedman omg haaa I was going to comment that Michael Biehn totally became Jack Nicholson then I saw your comment. Totally Jack with those sunglasses.
I said the same damn thing.
Ha! Me too
Tombstone is my favorite movie. I’m 46 years old and I seen it in the theater when I was a junior in high school. Val Kilmer should of gotten that Golden Statue for his performance. In my opinion Val was robbed twice. Once for Tombstone and once for The Doors.
I agree.
He wasn't their Huckleberry.
Val Kilmer is overlooked.
@@yodasmomisondrugs7959 Lol. That was a great comment.
Better to have the legacy of that role without an oscar than having some statue for a film no one cares for.
"You're 50." What? No! I'm 50 and I saw Aliens when I was 12! "Or 60." I looked it up. He's 67.
I saw Aliens when I was 15. I just turned 53 recently.
Im 73 and I saw aliens when I was 9.
I was 12 too when I saw Aliens at the theater. That might be my first movie of all time 👍
@@CleanFamilyVideos lol
Tombstone is a rare film for me. It's rare because I first saw it as a teenager, and even though I was more than familiar with literally everyone in it, I didn't recognize a single one of them (not even Kurt or Val Kilmer) because they all embodied their characters so well that I couldn't even tell at the time. Of course it's a different story now, but that film will always stand out for me for having such strong characterization that it's gripping every single time.
Me too. I think it was 20 years later when I realized Billy Bob Thornton was in Tombstone
@@mikepants35 I realized that about 6 months ago lmfao. I first watched Tombstone over and over as a kid until the VHS tape broke
Well ive been watching this movie since I was a teenager as well, im now 43 and I just learned this from your comment lol@@mikepants35
Michael’s face when he realised there was no Johnny Depp Disease😄love it😍
I guess Howard Stern and Bono have the same affliction
I was dubious because Johnny has Hurd Immunity.
What a great actor. He had me convinced.
Yes that was hilarious. I'm always fact checking when I watch anything. I'm glad I saw the video all the way thru before doing so. Yea I was armed and ready to look up "Johnny Depp Disease". I was like wow,now that makes sense now. LMFAO.
Omg I was so in love with Michael's character Reese, so when he was in Aliens I was all in love over again. 😂
Always,
talkingallthatjazz 🐬
I wish that Michael would get a huge push via a big headlining role in a show like Stranger Things, or something new like that for him to show everyone what he can do. He is awesome, always was always will be. Id love to see him in the limelight for smashing it on something current and huge. I love his total recalls back to his previous roles from yesteryear, but he deserves a show, movie on an Oppenheimer , Stranger Things sized level today.
I totally agree. One of my favorite roles was when he played the GDI commander in a Command and Conquer game!
Ive always liked Michael, and Kurt. Two down to earth dudes who take their art seriously but not themselves and know theyre entertainers. Not political activists
Biehn is a great actor and his performance as Johnny Ringo is legendary
Him screaming out for the Earps' blood is still scary as hell.
Am proud to say I went to the same small high school in the middle of the desert as MB. He followed his passion...Takes courage.
I've learned to appreciate Beihn's role as Johnny Ringo more and more over the years. I always concentreated on Val, who plays Doc Holliday so well. But the last few times I've really zoned in on Beihn's performance and the way he convey's unsure confidence against Doc, is so well done. Just the right amount bravado, with fear lurking just below the surface. His eye movements during that last confrontation, were so indicitive of this. He said a lot, just with facial expressions.
"How about you, are you retired too?"
Exactly!
Agreed. I love it when a villain isn't just a coward. When the villain is only a back-stabber and avoids a real fight, I think it's lazy writing. Ringo is legitimately scared of Holiday but goes into that duel anyway. Because you can have courage *and* be a bad person. To me, that's a scarier villain.
I remember when I first met Michael Biehn in 2017 at a convention, and he said that Tombstone was his favorite movie, that he ever did. And I agreed with him about his anger and frustration at Alien 3, and he told me that even James Cameron was pissed. I met Michael again earlier this year, and he was still very pleasant to talk to. His wife was at the convention this year too, and she was really fun to talk to. It was pretty much a Terminators 1 & 2 reunion. Michael was there, Robert Patrick, Edward Furlong, Lance Henriksen and Linda Hamilton. The only one I didn't meet out of them, was Edward.
No Arnold?? Or is he too good for that kinda stuff?
@@TuckerUp I don't know if they even reached out to Arnold. I was surprised that they were able to snag Linda Hamilton, even if it was for one day. Everyone else was there for all 3 days. This year's convention had some really great actors. They originally had all 4 Hobbits, but Sean Astin was sick, so he cancelled. We also had Bruce Campbell, Jon Bernthal (who is another great person to talk to), Jonathan Frakes and a few others. This was the most impressive amount of well known celebrities, I have encountered.
Shame you didn't meed Furlong. Loved him in T2, American Heart, American History X, etc. Hope he has gotten past some of the troubles he has had in his adult years.
@@shootinputin6332 yeah, it sucks when your funds are limited. But on the final day of the convention, we got to meet Danny Trejo, and we got meet up with Jon and, whom we met previously in 2019. I didn't know until the convention, just how short Danny Trejo is. I always thought he was at least 6', but he's actually 5'5". We also had to put in for a refund request, because on that Saturday (it's a 3 day convention), we were supposed to get autographs and photos with 3 out of 4 Hobbits (Sean Astin was sick), but their final chat panel, got bumped to the time were supposed to get their autographs. But at least we got to do a photo op.
I love Michael Biehn. Everytime I see him in a role, I'm hooked all over again. Good for him.
Mr. Biehn has been in some of the greatest movies of all time. Superb talent and I love his work.
Still one of the most authentic westerns ever, largely due to the work of Peter Sherayko (who also played Texas Jack Vermillion). His company provided firearms, clothing, and extras for the movie, and his meticulous attention to period correctness ensured nothing showed up that would not have existed at the time. Many lines were also lifted directly from transcripts of the trial which followed the "shootout". The cast was possibly the greatest ever assembled as well. Fantastic movie.
Apparently the makers of Wyatt Earp weren't happy as Tombstone got to the authetic props before them.
Wyatt Earp > tombstone
@@KevinDaUnicorn If you like a poorly-paced, overly-long movies with a half-wit low-talent actor in the lead, then yes it is.
@noahmercy-mann4323 I enjoy the reality of Kevin Costner version vs the glorified circus of a movie. Tombstone is far far too overrated in the western realm. Kurt Russell in the creek bed saying " no no no" and dodging bullets in slow motion. Furthermore, good bad ugly is king of the mountain , tombstone is a cartoon in comparison to either of my entries
@@davidjames579I remember hearing a rumor Wyatt Earp was postponed because Tombstone had gobbled up the available wardrobe and western props at the time. I’m amused by the stories about people who’ve actually met these actors. I got to meet the guy that owned the paint horse Biehn’s character rode in the movie, but none of the actors, or the horse for that matter.
Michael Biehn. Glad to see so much love for this wonderful actor. He brought characters to life. Always wished he could have been in Predator as one of Dutch’s guys.
Interesting!
Great interview, Michael is a really good actor. A friend of mine asked him to sign a photo from the movie Aliens. He did so and added ‘best wishes Cpl Hicks’. He had time for everyone, very down to earth. Good guy 👍
Let's not forget Michael's great performance in "Navy Seals"
Let’s get out of here before he presses something else up against the glass.
He also also great in The Rock!
I had a lot of fun listening to that banter. Thanks for the upload. Keep it up.
Love seeing Michael back on the show
I love the way you are always able to get these guys relaxed and talking and goofing around the way you would with your friends.
I love the lugosi user pic :)
I love these types of interviews where people are just themselves, and they aren't there to promote anything or maintain some sort of public image. They're just there to tell stories about their lives and experiences.
Yes for sure !!
Absolutely, loved his performance and this movie. So much so that every couple of years I have to see it again. Just quality.
Michael Biehn is a solid actor, never seen him in a bad role.
Such a GREAT Actor… I almost Googled “Johnny Depp Disease”!!!
This was fun! And MB is one of my FAVE actors; loved him in Tombstone and The Rock and of course, Terminator.
Michael Biehn and Bill Paxton were both in Lords of Discipline together which is a movie that needs to be talked about more often. So underrated. Also Rick Rossovich was in it too who had a brief part in Terminator.
I love that guy! Michael Biehn is seriously under utilized as an amazing actor!
I love Mr. Biehn's work. He's so natural.
I love these interviews! Keep up the good work!
Was just rewatching The Abyss and saw this clip. Excellent timing. He really had me going on JDD, I had just picked up my phone to look it up.
….I almost Googled the “Johnny Depp Desease”😂
I was hooked line and sinker about the JDD.
What a great interview.
Had the pleasure of meeting Michael a number of years back at the Sitges film festival in Spain…..what a lovely guy he is and was a major fan boy moment for me!
Michael has had some great charactors to play. Just wondering about the dynamics of working closely with James Cameron and Linda Hamilton On Terminator? which is still one of my favorite movies.
My understanding was that Kurt didn't want to embarrass George by publicly outing him as not being the real director, so he would give George signals to mean "I like that take" or "I don't like that take." After shooting would wrap for the day, Kurt would go back to his trailer and create a shot list for George for the next day. If true, it's understandable why Michael wouldn't have realized this was going on.
Yes, this is also how Sylvester Stallone directed Rambo: First Blood Part II with George Cosmatos, and why Stallone suggested Russell hire him in the first place.
Apparently the agreement was Kurt would never speak on it unless the director died..which he dis pass away and Kurt to my knowledge only spoke on once or twice after his death.
Yeah, Cosmatos was one of those reliable, workman-like directors ; he could deliver the shots as said on the page, but nothing beyond that. As Michael said, he was a pretty good visualist, but I would hardly call him a visionary director.
Why the hell would you believe hear say internet bs over someone that was an integral part of the film and was there in person?
You're the exact kind of person Michael is talking about that drive him insane because you spread rumors you know nothing about.
Loved Michael Biehn's little prank at the end. LOL 😂🤣
Kurt is one of my favorites, so nice to hear his reputation is so good, love these actors of this generation.
Tombstone is one of the greatest films of all time. Amazing that it was directed "by committee" that is usually a recipe for disaster.
Wizard of Oz was like that. 6 directors.
Corporal Hicks is one of the all time best character.
Biehn always gets killed off in his movies...poor guy lol
Technical speaking, he wasn’t killed in Aliens.
@@ghostviggen Aliens 3 though...yikes
2:10 I like how it changes camera angle and we are greeted with the thing and escape from new york after talking about kurt russel
The bit with the sunglasses is golden, what a guy. I could watch these two talk movies forever.
"Michael Biehn Disease" is when you have a 87% chance of not making it out of a movie alive.
Man he's such a legend, the Navy seal commando cutting himself in The Abyss was sick twisted perfect acting.
Scene did in the terminator when he was trying to tell the truth to the cops....Gold
Russel was angry in stargate cause he was training to build a serious body for the role and he broke his leg the fist day of shooting, michael is fantastic but ill stand to my take of things
I'm surprised Michael Biehn didn't have a bigger career as a leading man in Hollywood. He was a handsome guy when he was young and was terrific in the Terminator and Tombstone among others. He still had a nice long career as a character actor but I thought he would have been bigger than he was. Hollywood is weird sometimes.
Kurt probably did help direct most of Tombstone. It was directed by George P Cosmatos who also rumor has it basically let Sylvester Stallone basically direct Rambo 2 and Cobra. He was known as a director you hire when there is a star on board that wants to have a say in the making of the film.
@STONESGAM Michael had/has an alcohol addiction.
That’s what I heard as well, I think from a Biehn interview (may have even been on an episode of this podcast). Being alcoholic affected his attitude and blew some potential parts he could’ve gotten.
@@anitam7547 Never knew that. Thanks for the info!
Tbh he actually had a great career
@@szafraniec8164 He did but I just thought he would have been more of a leading man and he became more of a character actor. A good one!
Michael Biehn is a great actor and one of the most underrated and under appreciated actors in the industry.
Man I wanted to hear him talk more about Tombstone. Love that film and love Biehn.
I remember reading an article in the Burbank library, I think the magazine was called True Western, where Kurt Russell laid out how Tombstone was put together after Kevin Jarre was let go.
Kurt said that Sylvester Stallone recommended George Cosmatos as they had a similar arrangement on Rambo 2. Russell would basically give Cosmatos a shot list for the next day, and they’d knock out the day’s work. I think he even used the term ‘ghost directing’ and he said that while Cosmatos was alive, he’d never give up their arrangement. But at some point, Russell was sort of in charge of bringing the picture in.
Either way, I love the movie, and think Bruce Broughton should be in the composer’s hall of fame for his score for Tombstone.
Thanks for posting this.
Well for a director who wasn't actually a director, Cosmatos made some pretty good movies. How do I get that job?
My understanding was curt helped with writing directing and even production. So because he was so involved and did so much it's easier to say he was a director.
I'd love to see Kurt Russell directing movies. He said that he would only do another Snake Plissken movie if John Carpenter was involved. I don't think it's going to happen.
I believe it also had to do with George Cosmatos having a reputation, deserved or otherwise, for being a fairly pliable hired gun. He also directed Rambo II, which was somewhat considered Stallone’s show.
Oh shit! Michael, I just found your channel and subbed. Been a fan of yours since 2000s.
Poolhall Junkies is one of my favorite movies ever. Cheers from Kelowna BC
I met Michael at a Sci-fi convention some years back in Manchester Bowl UK. A really nice guy and a fantastic marine!! 👊😎
With those glasses he looks like a young Jack Nicholson
Hey Michael R... You got Punk'd by Michael B.
Classic.
Love Michael Biehn and all of his work! He kicks ass.
I love hearing that Kurt Russel is awesome in person. He’s one of my all time favorite actors.
Only complaint with Tombstone I've ever had was continuity issues and effects. The scene where the anguished Wyatt exits the Oriental his hands are blood stained, then he lifts his hands towards Maggie and they are absolutely covered in blood and he then walks out into a rainstorm that is literally just around him and not the entire set, and that blood somehow isn't washing off or spreading onto his shirt so much. Also, when Curly Bill goes on his opium induced shooting rampage with his "six shooters," I think he fires off around 20-22 rounds with no reloading time. I absolutely love this movie and regularly watch it a few times a year.
Let’s not forget the OK Corral shootout, where Doc has a double barrel shotgun, and manages to fire off three shots before reloading. Great movie, probably one of the best Westerns ever made, but stuff like that takes away from it.
George P Cosmatos is not much of a Director.Brian Thompson said he was an A-hole on the set of Cobra,and Sly did most of the work on that movie.
Tombstone is my all time favorite western. So good, and that there are so many elements that are actual history is just crazy.
He was SO GOOD as RINGO… One of my favorite Westerns - Kurt Russell Tombstone.
Bring back Michael biehn all of his characters were amazing. A great actor.
It was always weird to me how he was in so many huge movies, but somehow never became the kind of “movie star” a lot of his costars did.
“I’ll be your Huckleberry”-great line from Val Kilmer’s Doc Halliday to Michael Biehn’s Johnny Ringo character in Tombstone.
I just saw this movie before the new year...30 years after it came out! Love it! It's one of those movies that is perfectly casted. I cant see anyone else playing these roles because they did it so flawlessly! Kilmer and Biehn nailed their roles! Especially, Biehn! HIs mannerisms and expressions could not have been done better. One of my all time favorites, now.
I met Michael at a con in DC years ago. He didn't look very happy, likely cause no one showed up to see him. I know that's terrible. I was waiting in line for him at his table and this guy walks up ahead of me. My first thought was to tell him there's a line and then it hit me. This old man in street clothes is Kyle Reese. I bit my tongue and asked him a question to which he gave a quick answer. Of his 3 big movies, Terminator, Tombstone and Navy Seals, he had more fun being a Seal and raising hell on set with Charlie Sheen
I absolutely love Michael in this movie, he really encapsulated the character, and proved to be a very fascinating depiction.
Great clip! Michael looks absolutely fantastic. Many say he's so down to earth, a real genuine person ..and you can see it in his interviewd.
I'm always fact checking when I watch anything. I'm glad I saw the video all the way thru before doing so. Yea I was armed and ready to look up "Johnny Depp Disease". I was like wow,now that makes sense now only to find out NOT"... LMFAO.
Omg I was so in love with Michael's character Reese, so when he was in Aliens I was all in love over again. 😂 AND Now seeing him again, yep all I. Love again 💓 lol
Always,
talkingallthatjazz 🐬
This is so great!! ❤ Awesome
LOL... loved the wind-up. Nice to hear nothing but good things about my favourite "court jester", Kurt Russell.
Full of great actors! Including Michael Biehn!!
Working crew on Tombstone was def the best time I ever had working a show
I have the same problem with light bothering my eyes, I always wear shades, until recently, the VA got me the blue blocker in my regular glasses, and that's reduced the pain in my eyes. Now in bright sunlight I still need shades, but in house my regular glasses do what shades used to do.
Tombstone is still one of my favorite movies. Loved when Mike and Val did the dueling cup twirling scene.
Doc Holiday and Johnny Ringo stole the show for me, loved it. As an 80 kid I got the best era in action Movies.
"Kurt Russell is out there. He can't be bargained with. He can't be reasoned with. He doesn't feel pity, or remorse, or fear. And he absolutely will not stop, ever, until he is done with Tombstone."
I have always loved Michael Biehn's work.
I fell in love with Michael Biehn after seeing him in the 1978 film at the theater 'Coach' with Kathy Lee Crosby, at the theater.
About 30 years ago I was on holiday, driving up the California coast highway when my wife and I decided to stop at a look-out to admire the view. a few other cars had stopped as well. There were about 8 of us all looking out a the stunning ocean vista and a beach covered with sea lions. After a few minutes, I turned to leave and realised the man I had been standing next to was Michael Biehn. He was there with an absolutely gorgeous blonde woman. He saw me freeze, I was about to say something (probably stupid) but opted to just smile and nod. He did the same, and I silently congratulated myself for keeping cool.
I got his pic and autograph at an autograph signing event in Dallas at the Hyatt inside the dfw airport about 10-12 years ago. He seemed humble.. He was very nice.
in fairness to Kurt, the grumpyness really added to his character in Stargate.
Which is one of my favorites.
