Samuel is a very frank, tell-it-like-it-is with no BS kinda guy. And in the film industry he has worked well and bonded with a fair share but also butted heads and scared off quite a few as well. He just has this huge presence that may come off as antagonistic for some, but either way the effect that he has as an actor is one where he commands immediate respect, naturally. In the beginning of the interview Samuel was skeptical about how it was all going to turn out and he certainly had this standoffish aura, but as the interview progressed he opened up more and more and in the end he was pleasantly surprised remarking "Well it did feel like a conversation" which was the intention of this interview and that in my book is fuckin "A+" pass with flying colors. The interviewer asked a range of questions and knew how to steer the discussion, he listened and didn't talk over the interviewee and gave enough space for expression. This was both insightful and entertaining, well done.

Shane Benjamson I've never heard anyone use the phrase "big words" who wasn't an idiot. And I've never met an idiot who wasn't fun to goad. So just for fun, go ahead and defend your assertions. Give your evidence that (1) Sam Jackson can't give much advice to directors, (2) that his advice is one-note or shallow, and that (3) he doesn't know how to make groundbreaking work. And before you respond, be aware that Every Frame a Painting, which is all about the style and work of groundbreaking directors, has already used some of his statements made in this video.

I don't think it's weird at all that some actors don't like watching themselves.
