Milos Forman on Letterman, 1985, 1986

[@martinkubus2178]

RIP, Mr. Forman. As a Slovak, born in 1982 Czechoslovakia, I am proud to be his compatriot!

[@thisisfunny2234]

Him is Czech not Slovak

[@gentlemanjim480]

@@thisisfunny2234 You don't get the guy's message. The point is that we were one country when Forman and the poster were born. He is clearly aware that Forman was Czech, hence the emphasis that he was born in 1982, when the Czechs and Slovaks were compatriots in one country.

Amadeus is my favorite film of all-time.

[@fleetadmiralperry5739]

Mr.Allen I wish you and I could have a deep and detailed discussion about the film because I’ve grown to love it in the last couple years what with the pandemic limiting activities but more than that I’ve developed an appreciation For Mozart Deeper than ever before so hopefully someday we’ll have that chance

[@roedalacket]

Wonderful upload. Never knew Milos visited the letterman show. A real cool watch.

[@steveholmes77]

He seems like a great guy, very genuine.

‘One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest’ and ‘Amadeus’ will always be his cinematic masterpieces! R.I.P. Miloš Forman 1932-2018 🙏

[@ivanmay7890]

Milos Forman was an excellent director. He totally deserved those Oscars for directing Amadeus and One Flew Over The Cuckoo's Nest.

[@dealerovski82]

Everyone that cares should go and watch the documentary behind making of Amadeus.

[@scotchdopole]

If you haven't seen it watch Taking off. You won't regret it.

18:13 I just keep loving it when he says "Well, we arrived to Frankfurt"

[@letitbeknown8126]

R.I.P. Milos Forman, thank you for all your movies, but especially One Flew Over The Cuckoo's Nest, Amadeus, The People Vs.Larry Flynt, and Man On The Moon. Thank you for all the entertainment

@@magaliebatterie3148 None of his movies should be forgotten, that's true, and yes, he was someone who did whatever it took to make his movie the way it needed to be made, and for him to go to great lengths to make a perfect film, THAT'S what makes him one of the greatest film directors of all time👍

Amadeus was brilliant.

[@finnibertlunchiken7792]

You uploaded this the day after he died. I dudnt hear about it but in the first minute Dave says "You can die a happy man" and Milos answers with "but why should I die?". So I check google to see if hes alive and he just passed on two days ago. Weird. At least he lived a good 30 years after asking Dave why!

[@PoetryHound]

Cutting those 3 scene in Cuckoo's Nest would have completely ruined the film.

[@petrmilota6398]

You can just imagine how many other great people had different talents and those were never recognized because of Communist Regime.. Almost every Slavic nation - 400 millions..

All forms of authoritarianism stifle creativity.

[@capcacin996]

That's unpopular to say in America right now. Sadly the Universities here preach the benefits of communism, so you'll see many apologist comments to statements like this.

[@mrkv4k]

@@Nonesovile96 It doesn't. Democratic regimes don't have total control over your whole life, the don't stop you from going to school or get you fired for openly criticizing them.

[@davidschick4729]

The situation about smoking went now so bad in Czech Republic, that you are not allowed to smoke in a pub even if the owner of the pub dont mind you are smokin. And Miloš used to smoke in the airplanes. That is funny. Anyway AMADEUS is for me one of the best films I have ever seen.

[@ayakamontv2967]

the story about smoking in a plane ... yeah ... that ... like ... i know ... what is mean ... :)

[@akanecortich8197]

I have never heard that Amadeus was an alcoholic, pretty sure that isn't true.

[@THEAnnEla]

Well the fact you didn't hear about it doesn't really mean it's not true...

[@vittoriostoraro]

It is, and easily verifiable.
