they aint playing the tv game here ....dig

the painted plane was the tru star

I feel like there's a serious case of generation gap at play here: the older generation who always had to be 'on' vs the younger generation who wanted to drop the shtick and speak their minds.

and now they us tighten up our bootstraps or something like that. give us more acid and we might consider it

Love Robyns persona and music!

Cavett and others blame the guests for this interview going awry but Cavett, along with Brooks, need to take all the responsibility. After the initial discussion with Mark was awkward, Cavett should have directed his question about how the film came out specifically to Daria. She obviously had something to say. And never command someone who is evidently uncomfortable in a situation to 'talk... say something'. It wasn't witty or funny, rather it revealed a colossal ignorance on the part of Brooks about how to extract interesting information from a guest. Cavett pathetically tried to score a few laughs by mocking Daria's nervousness instead of following up with relevant questions. Is asking a guest where they are from the best Cavett could do? Rex Reed asks a good question about working with Antonioni, which should have been followed up only with Daria after she had given an intriguing response and an opening to further explore the subject. A missed opportunity.

Thanks for uploading this magical performance!

I love this interview. Dick is his usual smarmy, ignorant, boring self. He looks like he's been using Kraft glue as a facial peel every morning. Mel should be nicer to Daria and should make fun of Mark more. Switch seats if you're jibes can't reach the real culprits of why this interview is a gorgeous grotesque mess <3

Wow, the most painful interview I 've ever seen. What couple of idiots. Mel Brooks and Cavett were in total disbelief...

The great Rex Reed said it best in his book: "There is only one thing more boring than watching an Antonioni movie and that it INTERVIEWING ANTONIONI". I am from Cuba and we got a lot of his movies, I think the first one was "Il grido", then came the others "La notte", "L' eclisse", "L' Avventura", "Il Deserto Rosso". They were all BORING. In order to complete my knowledge of this famous director, I have seen in the US two we didn't get in Cuba "Blow Up" and just last night "Zabriskie Point". I have a more critical, more mature, more knowledgeable way of thinking now and I can say with confidence that his films are "A CRUSHING BORE". Poor Monica Vitti, his actress and for a short while his wife, no wonder she left him and started making comedy beginning with "Nina Tirabuscio, the women who invented the shake".

Elle veut parler et se fait interrompre à chaque fois. Vive le machisme !

La jeune femme ne parle que quelques secondes. Elle garde un aire intimidé. Elle veut parler et, cha

Thank you very much for taking the time & love to share this with us, indeed the world.

Loved the Pink Floyd part. But oh man... these actors are actually painful to watch be interviewed. No wonder the film bombed. Who would want to watch these uncharismatic losers for an hour and some change? No way bro

I enjoyed this Dick Cavett episode for the same reasons I enjoyed all of them that I saw. He indeed was - and is - a great host and interviewer. That these two were so different just makes it interesting in a different way, like how Herbie Hancock describes the way Miles Davis approached unexpected in “mistakes” while playing (they are not mistakes at all if you don’t resist them). Anyway, I loved the movie - err, “film” - they were in too!

i appreciate the honesty

Far out man.

Incredible film, way ahead of it's time

This all that I have. It is all that is in circulation... maybe all that exists?

Can you post more of this interview? Does it exist? It certainly didn't end here.

Watching this interview reminds me of a line from the movie: I'm willing to die....of boredom

Gotta Love Mel Brooks

Where's the rest of the interview? Daria started to talk then got cut off. Dick promised to come back after the commercial when she had an opportunity to collect her thoughts.

@THX-1138-C I'd rather have the hippies than you any day snobby!

Mark seems a troubled character, intense, very interesting. But Daria, such a beautiful soul, was trampled over and ignored. Far too many out of control egos here. What we got was tantalizing glimpses and virtually nothing of the beautiful Daria.

BELLISSIMO ATTORE E BELLISSIMO COMPLIMENTI A TE RICHARD TESORO MIO 👌💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯👍👏👏👏👏😘❤💋💯💯💯💯💯

I was an usher in the theater where Zabriskie Point played. It was terrible. After watching it rapidly, I believe the concept was either poorly conceived and not fully flushed out to begin with, or it was deliberately sabotaged from within becasue it exposed hidden control faction activates. Not the first time. They're touchy like that. The dangerous thing is, they're still at it and the censorship has gone off a deep end. They have invaded every form of media, entertainment, and sports. All communication will be shut down before they will allow themselves to be curtailed.

wow, the host really lived up to his name! he could be a little less sarcastic with these young, inexperienced, nervous youngsters. okay their tripping balls but you could give daria a chance to babble along with her co star. and Mel isnt much of a ad libber.

did FLAP open this show?

Tank you..l love richard😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍

fantastic

I was there. Thank you for bringing me back into time.

Bellissimo e bravissimo sempre! 😍

Mel was totally leaning in to kiss Daria! Nevertheless, Mel, you are, and always will be, my idol! Watching this takes me back to my pre-teen years. My dad refused to watch Johnny Carson (called him a “qu**r”…didn’t know what that meant until I was in my teens), so we watched TDCS, or I did when got to stay up late. Dick Cavett was so different than any host seen in the past 50+ years. The dry humor you’d expect from a Yaley trying to get a reaction from smug anti-hero types, able to stand toe-to-toe intellectually with anyone. Don’t know how well Dick would compare now with today’s talk show hosts, but he sure was great in his day.

These two are so arrogant and annoying. Mark died a few years later in prison when a 150 lb barbell fell on his neck.

Mark, if you would had the ability to act, Antonioni might have achieved what you wanted. Never had that problem with Alain Delon, Monica Vitti, or Marcello Mastroianni. Instead, we got you and Commune Girl who would end up marrying Dennis Hopper! Lesson: never use hippies!

Daria is one of the most beautiful women I've ever seen in my whole life.

Cute pretty girl, weird guy, great film.

Film good, but for me this film doesn't make sense

What's the (Zabriskie) point of this film?

Dick is crazy good. I’ve always loved him... & Zabriskie is one of my favourite movies.

Still, one of my favorite films.

Mark and Daria are pretty cool but the interviewers are Dick heads.

Wooden acting, wooden interviewees. Worst film, Zabriskie Point. No wonder they had nothing good to say about it.

They can’t even be bothered to plug their own movie how ungrateful.

Mel Brooks next to the walking dead , hilarious.

Way too fucking serious. Fucking strange. I mean she is way hot but those two are freaks.

du naturel et de la tragédie, un an après l'interview Marc Fréchette allait être arrêté lors du cambriolage d d'une banque et deux ans plus tard il meurt en prison. Daria qui a vécu un temps avec lui - est devenue art thérapeute - donc oui la promo... c'était pas leur truc

so wacky

Love it! I had not seen this before!
