Oliver Reed interview clip 1980

[@oldnfree9806]

not always drunk ,but always genuine- There's no one like him today.We miss you Ollie!

[@Natedawg38]

100 videos of this guy on KZbin and they're all gold. What was he? He was human.

[@delbertmol]

Just makes you wish he was still around. Watching actors getting interviewed nowadays is bloody awful. No characters left.

[@FilmedbyEdmund]

wow, this comment is 9 years old. It got so much worse

[@extanegautham8950]

@@FilmedbyEdmund didnt it. pompously referring to their film as a project...the only place they become a little genuine is on Graham norton.

[@jkshackelford]

Amen

[@irishnessie]

All the old school actors are the best. Only ones I can think of left are Clint Eastwood and Anthony Hopkins. Maybe Stallone. And the likes of De Niro ruined it by being a flaming SJW. The older actors had class and didn't have agendas. They knew their place and got on with it.

[@redplague]

Yeah it's so generic. Maybe they are just so afraid of getting into trouble that they essentially just act in the interview. Although recently I saw an interview with Guy Ritchie and Kristen Stewart (not together) and people in the comments were slagging them off for being awkward. That's what they're really like! That's a good thing!

[@candildelacalle]

Ollie is very close to my heart. He was one of my Father's favorite actors. Once my Dad got drunk and angry and kicked my tricycle while I was riding it and I fell down the stairs still hanging on to it. I was three. He didn't mean to, but caused me a deep cut below the chin that needed surgery You can barely see the scar now, but for years, while I was a little girl, it looked really scary. You could see all the stitches marks and it extended to the sides of my face. I would watch Ollie's movies with my Father, and my Dad would point out at his face and say: "See? He's got scars on his face and he is tough and cool, and everyone loves him". "But I'm a girl, Dad...". "It doesn't matter", he'd say. "No one messes with him and no one will mess with you". The scar became virtually invisible, but my Dad always felt guilty about it, and for the rest of his life, he would touch it every time he was near me, even on his death bed. The booze killed him. Thank you Ollie for being a bond between me and my Dad. I hope he is with you in Heaven.

God bless you. Great context of circumstances.

[@suzettemaha5413]

We all have our vices and make mistakes but your father obviously made sure you knew that he loved you. He sounds like a wonderful man.

[@SapphireKnoxx]

Bless him. I agree with his beautiful voice... Beautiful smile... Charismatic.... His presence is amazing.... The second after he walks down the stairs before he says "If I give you my sword, will you give me your heart".... You can just feel the EXCITMEMT and anticipation from the crowd. I honestly don't believe an actor has stolen that from his audience since Oliver and probably never will. Long live Ollie xxxxxxxx

[@markmcmullan3351]

When ollie went into character the atmospere in the room changed ,he was the real deal.

[@octaviof.g.7316]

I wanted to hear the rest of the scene

[@dereksmallsuk]

Just a big fanny

[@kiely4561]

he had an aura around him, bags of talent and charisma, probably didn't fulfil his true potential, but without the drunken foolery he wouldn't have been the man we all love lol

[@mareet7354]

@@octaviof.g.7316 up until about 2 wks ago, the entire interview was up. The YT channel that had it was terminated, pity coz its a good interview

[@71ibanez]

Just by the way Oliver delivered those lines,you can tell he’s an accomplished actor!

[@suzettemaha5413]

As a nine year old girl viewing the movie "Oliver" for the first time on a class excursion (it was 1981 btw), I was absolutely terrified of him as Bill Sikes. Watching the movie many years later as a young adult, my heart skipped a beat at the scene of Bill Sikes' entrance into the pub as Nancy is singing. There is a moment when he turns to her and raises a slight smile, and then I noticed those striking, blue eyes. That was it, I was in love!

[@christopherwalmsley8526]

Lovely to watch Oliver fond memories of my youth. I could listen to him all night x

[@kerstinwernermironow]

i look this every time I am in troubles and than I can smile again.... Thank you Ollie

[@rossmorebaz]

he was a genius ...he had so much talent and charisma

[@Mira_Dunia]

Why couldn't he have been like this in all his interviews? Not a drunk, insulting guy. Just a polite, funny, smiling, gorgeous even when all sweaty Ollie?

[@Saw-Mc]

Erin F because he would of never been remembered for that , you heard what he said at the start

[@oliverholmes-gunning5372]

Thought I'd seen every Ollie Reed clip on youtube- glad to see there's one I'd missed! Classic stuff as always...

i was always amazed how oliver didn't seem to give a fuck about anything.

That's the way it should be! I loved his attitude.

[@anton1990]

Ollie was really handsome. He had the most devlish smile.

[@tombstoneharrystudios584]

You think he was goodlooking then...check him out when he was young!

[@Kevinasp]

One word for Ollie - legend!

[@annemccullough8794]

Great actor and entertainer!! Great interview!! 😊👍

[@benchristoguitarist58]

Chills: " If I give you my sword, will you give me your heart?" The power of it resonates across 40 years.

[@shawntamandl6660]

The best interpretation of the musketeer films ever done …even though it really was one film etc. That cast, production, and choreography will never be done like that again… and the movie scores were brilliant - especially the second movie composed by Lalo …

[@michaelparker120]

Love Oliver Reed 👍 true to himself regardless ❤️

I still love him. What a wonderful , intelligent man.

[@dkizxpt-su3ze]

Yes, and Olly was quite a character too

[@mortymorty5771]

There are no real people left.. So sad that this generation has left us.

[@lisalorraine9780]

you mention his nice speaking voice-- as an American who was introduced to him when 7 years old in Oliver! and then seeing him not long after that one Saturday afternoon on television in The Shuttered Room, you grow up thinking he is probably gruff and boorish --and even though you like it, still, it was interesting to find he had the intellect and sensibilities of an O'Toole

[@facetina]

He is more alive in this video than 50 people running in the street right this instant!

@rylojr1977 Yes indeed. When not playing up to his image, he was a dream chat show guest. Lucid, funny, (as you say) thoughtful, interesting. There's a lovely 1973 interview with Parky as well.

[@danielmay1278]

Deeply misunderstood, very intelligent man, just his drinking tarnished his image, but all he was just a normal bloke wanting to have a laugh.

[@extanegautham8950]

my god what a jolly fellow. a teetotaller would want to have a pint with ollie. seems like a very sweet man. in the event, a bloody damn good actor...wish he had in fact done Shakespeare, his own way.

[@thevan3293]

"If I give you my sword will you give me your whiskey"

[@Johnphilips1234]

Yeah actually apparantly he was. I know he was/is a legened and I'll be slated for saying this by some die hard O Reed fans but the main reason he was such a larger than life character was because he was drunk all the time. I'm sure if many people turned up to their TV interviews plastered they would appear more outrageous and entertaining. What Im saying is maybe the drunk Oliver Reed was the real legend.

[@OUTBOUND184]

How do you know!? Do you have a link for them? It'd be much appreciated @kara1464
