Viggo is long overdue for awards. He’s such a talented actor - speaks many languages and can mimic any accent!

[@andybaughman3719]

Well man, you got your wish! Best Picture!

[@margchris3303]

@ Andy Baughman - yup. I wish he won the best actor award too !

[@hnys7976]

I'm surprised he wasn't even nominated for the road. Amazing performance as always by Viggo

[@ELPIOJOBOLUDO]

Loved Viggo in 'CARLITOS WAY'!!!

[@LiveINtheGood53]

I loved Viggo in G.I. Jane and Crimson Tide!

[@yeonee90]

This interviewer is amazing. He asks really good questions and makes a comfortable atmosphere. I can feel his respect toward this film.

[@missionseven7972]

Yeon Song He also did his homework

[@ireneesperante8137]

Totally agree!

[@LiveINtheGood53]

@@missionseven7972 It's amazing that some interviewers or talk show hosts don't do their homework, so to speak. This happens a lot in sports. The host just wings it and he thinks he is doing great but you can tell he is faking it.

[@caroldelosangeles3621]

who is the interviewer? excelent job!!!

[@jstonerganjasaurus4238]

He is a great interviewer just like Graham Norton, Craig Ferguson, Sean Evans and even ozzyman unlike jimmy fallon

[@qaskas]

This guy consistently asks great questions

[@wxl143]

totally agree, one of my favorite. we won't hear boring workout questions from him.

[@simoneammon9874]

Yes, and I love that he is so enthusiastic!

[@caroldelosangeles3621]

who is the interviewer? excelent job!!!

[@maxbeene927]

Viggo is a prodigy, can't believe he didn't win anything from the Oscars, what a shame 😞

[@Reese3019]

Well the film he was clearly the lead or one of the two leads in won best picture so that's surely a personal win too. Apart from being nominated for the third time, and that already being the second Best Picture he's worked on.

[@elvinpasa8728]

I know! I'm so disappointed as well :(((

[@kingkang6877]

The Oscars are overrated. Everyone loved his performance (just finished the movie). The "Academy" is not everyone.

[@eduardmanecuta5350]

Oscar lost it's prestige a long time ago. Now is all political...

[@kaffekaffekaffe5225]

Love Viggo, give him the Oscar already ✌️

[@triciajohansen9295]

Either he or Christian will get it. I hope Viggo gets it because he does not have an Oscar and he is a Dane like me!😎

[@nancybackus3410]

He does deserve it for this portrayal. He was amazing.

[@keco0jose]

Me too, I love HIM...

[@triciajohansen9295]

@bob bobdr I am part Danish, get it from my great grandmother. She was a very proud Danish woman!😎

[@elliehansen2582]

Kaffekaffe Kaffe exactly! He deserves for best actors!

[@robertrodgers1423]

By far one of the best interviews and Kevin McCarthy has obviously done his homework given the questions asked. Extremely well done, very professional and informative. Keep up the great work young sir.

[@orangecloud8820]

He’s the Sean Evans of the movie interviews, I bet he’s gonna do a good job interview people during chicken wings haha

[@ireneesperante8137]

Robert Rodgers totally agree!

[@ImaginationFriend]

@@orangecloud8820 Hahah YES!

[@kevinharris3993]

A platonic love story between two men that discover who they are and then dares to change

[@canyildiz5966]

Actually quite a similar structure to the two popes when you look at it.

[@patwilliams800]

So perfectly put! I've watched this movie over & over & it's still awesome to witness the beautiful bond develop between these two wonderful actors. The final scenes truly melt your heart 💜 Both deserving of Oscar!!

[@maryrichards5264]

Hands down, the best picture of 2018. Actors are gifted, story is brillant (and true!). Truely the story of adaptation of human beings, made even better by these characters. I absolutely put this on my lost of all time favorites (right with "To kill a Mockingbird"). Music is phenomenal, please give yourself the gift of going to experience this film.

[@GGTaino]

This movie was amazing, recommended to anyone

[@Mr10Pambolero]

Agree

[@whatevernevermind5960]

Edgar Bautista agree

[@REEEEEEEEE_bs]

The poor interviewer still doesn‘t know if viggo was really driving in the chicken scene 😂😂😂😂

[@jessicac1623]

I really like this interviewer! He is super passionate and knows his stuff.

[@xzemmyx]

Great questions and this interviewer is very sweet and thoughtful too! Great interviews.

[@gabrielamaja9672]

What a great movie! The best I've seen in a while... Viggo was simply amazing!! Mahershala was great too!

[@jeffmajor9248]

Love Viggo...looking forward to seeing this!

[@alexisnewell3672]

Viggo n Mahershala unreal actors GREEN BOOK was beautiful ❤ they outdis themselves i cried was so attached to them magnificent 🌟🌟💫 Movie of the yearsss!!! 🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸

[@dustyblue2ify]

great interview! I don't go to the movies much at all but knew this one was spot on to see on Thanksgiving day and glad I did w/ dear friends. Indeed interviewer's question to Mahershala when he did the scene "I am not Black enough..I am not White enough" hit home for me being an adoptee had such a profound resonance of what I went through searching/finding my bio parents and after processing also my mixed roots and where do I fit in~ in life to discerning and healing the Family Triad, just speaking from my own perception. This movie was a classic in the Human Spirit and so grateful for watching it and give thanks! Movies like this are far and few between touching a collective consciousness for greater good transcending to Heart Speak so precious!

[@matejbrandejs3042]

That was a great interview. Everybody was chill and honest, great job done by the interviewer - very relevant and interesting questions, very professional. We need to start seeing more of this guy :)

[@mytwitzworld]

I just watched it... Oscars are coming

[@melaniej.roberts206]

I certainly hope so. It is well deserved.

[@Chilllllllll88]

The interviewer is awesome! I love it when someone is genuinely interested and knows what questions to ask!

[@Sakja]

Ha, I did not know that was Viggo. He can act his ass off.

[@danielsmith79]

Brilliant interviewer. He did his homework and his enthusiasm is on point!

[@asupertramp948]

Love Viggo, love him. But Mahershala Ali seems a very impressive man. Both of them are. Great movie 👏

[@Anonymous-pd1jr]

Just saw the movie at my college theater. It was such a beautiful movie and these men are extremely talented. I loved watching Mahershala Ali in this role. He brought tears to my eyes.

[@alyssaferaci1133]

I certainly did not expect this movie to be this good.....very emotionally stirring movie! I loved every minute of it!

[@sm1074]

This movie deserved the Oscar.. one of the best movies I have seen so far. very inspiring and great acting

[@kevinhealey6540]

Mortensen is not like the character he played. He has a lot of personality. The same with Ali. He's a nice guy.

[@muzictv3933]

This was one of the best films I have ever watched. In fact it's deffo my favourite

[@r.d.sandman6474]

Without this movie very few people of this current generation would have a clue of the amazing talent of Don Shirley, a man that took a big chance & the man that helped him to carry on.

[@sbill001]

Pick one, either one of them for best actor. Slap a best picture on there for good measure.

[@annipsy2185]

It was so good

[@andresledesma4183]

You wizard

[@n0tlia465]

Just saw the movie. It was fantastic. Made me laugh, and cry. They are both spectacular actors.

[@ericthegeneric1611]

Right, there has never been a movie to make me do that. This guy knows what a best friend is.

[@fights1300]

these were actually some really good questions, nice to see

[@drewhenriksen]

What a wonderful film.

[@joannekelsoe1257]

These be guys are awesome actors.. excellent job and great chemistry between the TWO!!

[@arkanjoteixeira]

Awesome movie that goes beyond any political agenda. A truly powerful film about friendship and compassion.

[@jackpage2]

Interviewer is so genuine ! love it

[@orionsecret]

So glad Kevin asked about the music. I was totally captivated throughout the film with the song choices so I made it a point to stay throught he credits. Lo and behold, the last song was Rich Woman by Li'l Millet and HIs Creoles, a song my father played tenor sax on in 1955. I was blown away!!!

[@carolbenson6524]

I'm praying both of them get Oscars! Fantastic acting! Everyone must see this movie!!

[@grafffuller3265]

Yes, please...let’s hear to second interview. Great questions.

[@KienDLuu]

This interviewer does consistently great interviews. He has such a friendly and genuine presence that he puts the subject at ease.

[@carsonlovescarts]

Great interview.

[@scotttobin537]

this film was beautiful, the casting choices were outstanding. the core character development for both roles was such an excellent storytelling.

[@dorkywatersrundeep]

Really great interview.

[@girlsforgoysgirlsforgoys4010]

THE BEST MOVIE, HANDS DOWN, NO HOLDS BARRED-BEST DAMN MOVIE YOU WILL EVER SEE. TEARS, CHILLS, LAUGHTER. YOU WANT THESE PEOPLE TO WALK OFF THE SCREEN AND BE REAL. I DON'T EVEN WANT TO WATCH THIS INTERVIEW, THAT'S HOW GOOD THIS MOVIE WAS. GEEZ! THE DIRECTING, THE EDITING, THE ACTING IS JUST PHENOMENAL...JUST PHENOMENAL. THIS MOVIE IS GOING TO SWEEP AND GO DOWN IN HISTORY AS ONE OF THE VERY BEST OF ALL TIME.

[@carlajefferson4222]

[@pongufogu9457]

Super professional interviewer with clever and appropriate questions though, for a chance once upon a time 🙏

[@leilanecozzi]

GREAT interview. This is the best movie I've seen in a looooooong time. They deserved all the awards they''ve won so far and they surely deserve the Oscar. #GreenBookOscarWinner

[@nadhinas]

it is great when an interviewer is ACTUALLY knows his topic and being enthusiastic about it! (and mind to not ask frequently asked questions)

A lot of ppl didnt remember the Green Book. My Gma would always mention it. She even had an original copy of the last 1 published in 1967. Im only 40 but knew about the Green Book in the early 90s. However, this movie DID introduce A LOT OF PPL to Dr. Shirely INCLUDING MYSELF.

[@RosieCooks]

Great movie!

[@marjoriereyes2947]

Both intelligent and great actors..Viggo should win Oscar it just that Rami did great too..kudos to all

[@todologic]

There are actors that are always the same in every movie, and look and speak the same way. Viggo is different on each one. That’s what good acting is.
