Face to Face - Roger Corman

[@chrism596]

Love how Corman isn't biting when the interviewer's trying to push the "your films are filth" angle..

[@BonesBrigader]

It's easy to make sense of why we go to the movies

[@jameskwaka]

RIP Roger. Great film maker and what a voice!

[@edmund184]

When I see something like this it's like having a little present. Tv was like this all te time back then.

[@taniaearle4457]

Yes, back when people could hold a conversation and had social skills.

[@eduardo_corrochio]

Not only is he an entertaining personality with cool experiences to share, but he also has such a pleasant voice here as well.

I think he’s a lizard person

Corman is so smart and measured that it's a pleasure to listen to him. I couldn't say what my favourite of his film is, but I have seen a lot of them. Still many I haven't yet seen, though.

This guy was a head of his time. He’s also still going!! Corman worked with some wonderful actors and he also gave a lot of directors there first feature film break. Very talented, intelligent and insightful man. x

Sat in front of Roger Corman in early 70’s with his assistant, who became a huge director later, Jonathan Demme. I had an 11:30 audition and didn’t leave till 2:30pm. Forman and Demme were doing a Blaxploitation movie in the early 70’s. Turns out the part I was reading for was a hooker who spoke using Ebonics… had I known, I wouldn’t have auditioned.they handed you a script as you entered the room. Told me to take 15 minutes and read the part I was auditioning for…as I read the dialogue, I knew no way I was auditioning , but I was in the same rom with the men, they were talking on the other side of the room. Demme said we are ready. I stood up and walked over to them and said I can’t say this crap its humiliating dialogue. Demme reached for the script and said fine, we have a room full of actress outside, one of them wil read for it. Thank you and goodbye! I almost fell down laughing when I saw he had directed Toni Morrison’s Beloved for Oprah Winfrey. I always wanted to bump into him to remind him of our meeting.

Very devinare in his presence I would assume he would be a chick magnet but in reality he's probably a shy and humble and sweet person...

*debonair (suave, sophisticated, charming, confident, stlyish) You're right about him. He married in 1970, wasn't a playboy type. He is currently 97. Many people don't know that he had a brief appearance in The Silence of the Lambs. Corman played an FBI bigwig who gives Jack Crawford grief for sending a trainee to visit Hannibal Lecter.

Me: “man how on earth did this guy get to make so many movies when they’re all cheap and bad.” *listens to him speak* Me: “ooooooooohhhh I see.”
