John Malkovich talks about the recent Hollywood abuse scandal

He's playing a disgraced Hollywood studio boss in a new play that tackles the recent Hollywood abuse scandals.
John Malkovich talks to Tim Muffett about the role and whether it's something he's ever come across.

[@NothingMaster]

That voice, and his paused phrasing and intonations - Epic.

[@enzosamuel3161]

what is up with the stereo panning in this vid

[@cashlinart]

lmao yeah kind of strange with headphones on tiny speakers its somehow not super noticeable at first

[@SolaceEasy]

It's crazy how they put the interview in the left speaker and anything from the play into the right speaker. Whack

[@zoezzzarko1117]

Love this Voice. Clothing. Mind. Man.

[@mihaelaalexandra3835]

Where can I watch the full interview?

[@vengaboydk]

Almost forgot him. Then watched Billions. He’s brilliant!

[@tst3264]

I think the mix engineer really liked the Beatles!

[@HartmutJagerArt]

What's wrong with the (interview) sound ?

[@pelematthews5442]

GET EM LENNIE

Far too many people, though luckily a minority, seem to fall for the most basic logic fallacy. When Malkovich says bad behaviour will always exist, this is an explanation, not an endorsement. The interviewer, like much of society, are either fools or looking for a headline, and so everyone seems now incapable or unwilling of having an understanding of why something exists, for fear they are labelled complicit. It's absurd. And Malkovich speaks his mind - Ironically, these men who have integrity, and simply say how something is, are the one's who do not engage in many of these dodgy behaviours. It's the one's who lack integrity, and pretend to ally with women, who engage in these behaviours. For some, they feel entitled being an ally (Im the good guy), and for others, it's the expedient option to not have nutjobs like some people here accuse you. Here's an example. Somebody says killing babies is wrong and horrible and needs to stop. I say "of course. not sure you can convince the people killing babies to stop though. bad people just exist" - They say "you must like baby killing"

[@Landie_Man]

This sounds like it’s Out of Phase

[@rohankulshreshtha]

He knows something. I don’t see bad behaviour ending and hiding his grin.

[@halcyonsikes7018]

Why is all the sound taken from my right ear and fucked right into my left ear all of it, is it like this for you other humans too?

[@Dakessian]

Where can I meet this jon marcowitch

[@sebastianmartinez4504]

The same place you meet this Juan Favoritos

[@annabackman3028]

Look for John Malkovich.

[@andrearibeirodebarrosevasc5403]

Love him

[@Tuaregoxffff]

Excellent Malkovich, shameful BBC

[@gato0082]

Stephenwolf Shakespeare, 👁️ Thts right humor is very subjective...... 🤷 🤔🤔💔 😒👁️🙋

[@citizen1163]

JM picking his words VERY carefully in order NOT to be cancelled by Hollyweird. Very Disappointing

[@blackorchid2261]

Watch more interviews and you'll see that he is always mindful with words. Got nothing to do with cancellation.

[@KaliMaaaaa]

Of course he knew what was going on, everyone did. The difference is they didn't care and still don't because males like this are a part of and benefit from the system. Malkovich and Mamet both have a long history of engaging in emotionally abusive relationships (with usually much younger women) so why would they be against it?

[@Frank75288]

i thought he was gay

[@nursen2106]

you are mixing up things - what he didn't get, was the extend of what was going on and how. that lines were crossed a lot of times, where it shouldn't one new. but, usually one didn't talk about it with colleagues on sets esp. not with men. it's not like, everybody in show business, went through the same offices and they could have catch something, but chose to ignore it.

[@halcyonsikes7018]

No, not everyone did. There are certain circles. You could be surrounded by scum but not be included in the more shady aspects. I would like some more info on Malkovich's history of abuse towards younger women, can you provide that? I am always keeping an open mind, so I am genuinely curious if you actually have something here.

[@reaperthemad8731]

Damn. Didn't know Malkovich was a sex offender apologist.

[@allthatjazz9000]

🙄 meanwhile in war torn countries

[@Rainingdogsandcats]

Hard on the eyes and overly eloquent.

[@garyfenlon5769]

To you, maybe.

[@johna.4334]

You would rather see a George Clooney type image? Shallow could not even begin to describe your character...or lack of.

[@20ASilva]

Overly eloquent? That's bad? Ok.

[@Eoerta]

Yes. Brilliant isn't it.

[@Light-Shift]

@@johna.4334 Except this is exactly how males evaluate women. Solely by appearance. It's just being reversed. So you don't need to point out the lack of character since its been in practice for so long....

[@objektivone3209]

Boring
