can we talk abt how jeff looks and feels SO ATTRACTIVE like he's always attractive, but in this interview specifically HE FEELS SO MUCH MORE ATTRACTIVE

[@legalfictionnaturalfact3969]

It's the tinted glasses

[@divinechord7]

TIS TRUE

[@Frankincensedjb123]

The most unique actor in Hollywood

[@lukeskywalker6809]

And very smart.

[@legendaydin8837]

I know it is pretty randomly asking but does anyone know of a good website to watch newly released series online?

[@tobyricardo1442]

@Legend Aydin i would suggest FlixZone. You can find it on google =)

[@jacobytheo1766]

@Toby Ricardo Definitely, been watching on FlixZone for years myself :)

[@legendaydin8837]

@Toby Ricardo thank you, I signed up and it seems to work :) I appreciate it !!

[@kimurico1]

So nice to see Dr. Malcolm being interviewed

[@DMalltheway]

The guy who turns into a Fly

[@imonymous]

Yea, I can relate to Jeff, I don't usually associate "gangly" with affection.

[@bubblesmcgee9878]

I cannot get over how soft-spoken Jeff was at that age...❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤

[@igod8054]

dude he was like 40 and knew exactly what his brand is

[@guileniam]

1:19- "ahrrahaha awrrrahaha, haha haha, haha haha"- Jeff Goldblum

[@Burritosarebetterthantacos]

An absolute legend.

[@MsTraydale]

Interviews with intellectual journalists and intelligent, articulate artists are missed dearly in 2023!

[@shilohstore6086]

This is like two intellectuals vocally mind dancing after ingesting marijuana

[@uncleianian7007]

he is tall but he has a great body so idk if i would describe him as gangly

[@Nebuelaeus]

its nice to see goldblum as himself, and not as the role he plays up for modern interviews.

[@Alex-wh8xr]

I wonder if his current weirdness is just a performance, maybe its drug related or something.

[@Nebuelaeus]

@@Alex-wh8xr its an act for sure. He realized that the persona he took on for some roles was popular with the public, so he started developing it more and more for his public appearances. you can see him progressively get more and more "goldblum like" as the years roll by.

[@guidoguido2245]

His "role" for modern interviews seems like a natural extension of what we’re seeing here.

[@saraha4972]

i think it could still be him though, he just plays his personality up in interviews like most actors do.

[@kevins4222]

He definitely plays an exaggerated version of himself in public. He seems to have a level of respect for Dick Cavett.

[@lukeskywalker6809]

Then, a year later: JURASSIC PARK.

[@SlickONick]

Yeah 😊

[@andresf491]

🦖

[@SlickONick]

This Was Made Before Jurassic Park Was Released, Lol

[@alicea.deheryng6799]

Jeff Goldblum is my favourite actor! I love him. He is not gangly. He is tall, svelte, muscular, and gorgeous! Perfect!❤❤❤

[@AnneliesRosseel]

The man is a gift from god we need to protect him at all costs

[@yashirajepateriya4201]

Protect from what

[@MagnificoGiganticus]

He has always been Goldblum!

[@gan9e]

I was just thinking... no one ever talks about chairs ? look at those lovely things... I wonder how many chairs there are in the states... wow must be a fair few eh... hmmm chairs.

[@roy_for_real2674]

Jeff Goldblum is aheeehm ya online

[@victoriadamon5964]

he was so hot in the 90s

[@MobinKiadeh]

He's always been good looking.

[@satansalsa1611]

still is

[@leigheaux928]

Honestly still so hot and that’s probably awful to say since he’s in his 70s but wow he’s still got it

[@divinechord7]

Good god what an attractive year for him.

[@frigginirishloons]

Some of us enjoy his lankiness

[@roseblake5803]

I love both of these guys 🥰

[@thetwilightzone4204]

He’s fine af

[@skylark5249]

You can see the makings of the present day "nicely weird" Goldblum even back in his 1986 Letterman appearance.

[@joblo3940]

more please

[@divinej802]

so handsome!

[@PrehistoricMagazine]

He looks like Ian Malcolm already what yr is this

[@somethingyousaid5059]

I wish that Jeff Goldblum and Samuel L. Jackson hadn't started doing television commercials.

[@annschultz6262]

Shooting Elizabeth and Earth Girls Are Easy/ my favs

[@EvaFarrel-un2pf]

I have never heard of the word “gangly” to describe someone’s physique

[@johng94x]

Well it is a very real word to describe a certain body type look it up.

[@Gannooch]

have nothing against the other celebs that were on this show but is this channel ever going to show the Dick Cavett shows where he interviews Jackie Gleason or Art Carney? How about any Honeymooners actors that were part of the main cast? These are rarities much like these.

[@nasseralsuleimani4807]

So calm so at what point did he start to micodose acid

[@brandonluck159]

I was wondering the same thing myself

[@innocentrage1]

Right? Like he was normal till 2010 then he went full "Goldblum"

[@ramandeepsekhon-nn6ps]

1997❤

[@LowKeyTired-q7d]

Oh doesn't he look great

[@annschultz6262]

James Stewart was gangly; one of the best actors.

[@MsTraydale]

Libra gang! 🙌🏾😍🙌🏾

[@flowerbedproductions834]

I do like Dick Cavett but for heaven's sake it took a whole 3 and a 1/2 minutes for him to find something for Jeff to flipping talk about! Most pop songs of the 70s and 80s would be finished. The world record holder at 1500 metres would've finished his run. In fact, half the VIDEO itself is over. I've watched hours of Dick Cavett now and especially like his Hepburn interview where he kept quiet. But you have to question his interviewing skills sometimes when his guest has to wait so long to begin a conversation!!

[@TheRubberStudiosASMR]

Ian Malcolm mode

[@roy_for_real2674]

He's a little different now.

[@josephlawson9950]

Jeff was a meme before the internet

[@scottmitchell1974]

Wow! These two would fit in nicely with Mao's folks.

[@captainkavern]

Actuellement he would start to shoot Jurassic Park 2 months later

[@SteelersCardinals1]

Way before the becoming the Pullout King. Who knew?

[@markwatson8051]

Sometimes Cavett's self consciousness is annoying and a bit exasperating

ahhh ok so he's always been like that. good to know.

[@MeTreesndirt]

So lonnnng ago! What a terrible person the fan, to call Dick Cavities tiny.

[@JoeDiamond110]

What an awkward interviewer.

[@thefashionhoe]

does anyone else think the interviewer was a bit rude here?
