He is a lovely, generous guy!! Such patience with everyone's questions!! It was a pleasure listening to this interview!!

[@muffincat99]

He is such a lovely person. He has been thru so much in his life. Losing his wife. Raising young children and then a serious bout with oral cancer. And still he has maintained such an uplifting spirit. Bravo Stanley!

[@Miroberta1234]

Wonderfully clear and curious interviewer. I hope this is her career path. We need more of her

[@cheedevulan8547]

I just love this much underrated actor.

[@gb4375]

Loved him in Spotlight.

[@MrSatnavatron]

Love me some Tucci --- way back since BEETHOVEN--- I loved the energy , inspired me to act in school - wish I had taken it further than first year.

[@emmad.176]

He's such an amazing comic actor, serious actor as well. I love him in Devil Wears Prada and Easy A :) He seems very smart and grounded as well.

[@timwright4263]

You should have got the Oscar for Mr Harvey. You were brilliant in that role. You worked so well with Peter Jackson, and with the young female cast. Then I think of 'Big Night' and Il Timpano. I'm English. I am so appreciative of your work.

[@neilburns8869]

I love how he's won over a brand new army of admirers since arriving in the UK. Obviously his wife is Felicity Blunt for those of you who perhaps aren't already aware she's Emily's sister (also as actress) and Emily's husband John is a director. While their uncle Crispin is a Conservative MP. Stanley has had a difficult time of things earlier in his life, losing his wife and then his own cancer battle. But he also loves his food, and in particular Italian food.

[@n.j.rihari813]

He's so right on it when he talks about Actors cos they are like that, they're special in a cool yet unique way that others are not. From real artists you won't get fluff or waffle about say the weather or that sort of thing. And male actors not afraid to engage with their Fem side its so attractive because its honest so, I love that about actors plus, when together they're some of the most hilariously fun joyous ppl to hang with. I luv how real they are so. if your not down with that and say conservative in nature then, maybe you shouldnt get around with artists cos they'll freak you out or blow you away in a cool way lol 👍🏼 Think real no fakery, open and not false then you'll get along jus dandy 🙃😊

tucci gang...raise your hands

[@dickfitswell3437]

I prefer to raise my hand for people that dont support domestic terrorism & dont bow to the mob. Also, he just confirmed he WAS a racist w/that virtue signal/pandering commercial. So, time will tell if he really isn't racist.

[@gb4375]

Love his passion for refugees!

[@francesca7142]

Cast your mind way back to "Undercover Blues" with Kathleen Turner and Dennis Quaid. Tucci is the would-be assassin "Muerte," very funny.

[@shaw7206]

Two questions: Is this interview happening in the university of Oxford? And are the audiences students of Oxford?

[@constantinosstylianou]

This is happening at the Oxford Union, an institution separate from the University of Oxford. Nevertheless, someone has to roughly be (or have been) a member of the University of Oxford in order to be eligible to become a member of the Oxford Union. So the audience is pretty much only Oxford students or alumni. The venue is the Debating Chamber of the Oxford Union itself, which is not University of Oxford grounds, but it's in the same area as many Oxford colleges and buildings.

Tons of more qualified italian i haav seen ,,,this is a axford pick

[@pc3346]

Where Jerry Falwell!... LoL!.. Y'all live under a rock?

[@alexaales7937]

i knew he would say 'the godfather' when asked about favorite movies. what is it with guys and the godfather???? i found it soooo boring. i found his take on refugees very refreshing, tho.

[@n2blaze467]

Free Scotland Free Scotland 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿

[@gopherstate777]

I agree love Scotland and has nothing the fuck to do with this program. Thanks for not contributing....ass.

[@jessebarlow1277]

free scotland! i love stanley tucci

[@dudeczek94]

Every time I heard someone cough in the back, I was thinking of the lack of "awareness" and ignorance from our government.

[@gopherstate777]

I agree but your comment is very neurotic.

[@julierogers1155]

What?

[@byarichand]

Terrible interviewing Process. He carried her all THROUGH,

[@MostCommentsAreFake-ud8by]

go away

[@MostCommentsAreFake-ud8by]

@Louvre360 - You cannot even write good English.

[@gopherstate777]

She is young and picked the wrong skirt and color for the event. Shouldn't have crossed her right leg over which is a distraction to real Male viewers like myself, but otherwise was pleasant and fine for a girl of 23. I think you expect too much. Where would someone of her privileged background gain such insight and worldwide savvy in England?

[@baguraditya]

Social distancing? No? Protective gear? No? Why? .. I'm getting really anxious seeing this

[@inertiamonster]

@@dv8760 He mentions coronavirus breaking out in one of the cities he recent filmed in Italy a little over 6 minutes into the interview, so no it wasn't. It may have been recorded before lockdown but would have been just barely.

[@brainsareus]

In your case, give social obliteration a try.

[@katicabogar24]

UK was one of the last to lock down...

[@HaningNugrahadi]

FIRST!

[@richardhoffman5769]

Well done

[@shamirpatel3569]

Stanley Tucci is an American institution. Britain you’ve already taken Churchill and Boris Johnson, please develop your own icons and stop stealing ours. 😂😂😂😂

Asian dude at the end; comes across as a libertarian sociopath.
