@Ry G Yeah, what was I thinking? Actors like Robert DeNiro and Alec Baldwin are the true intellectuals of our time! #LMAO Seriously - 1) They film one scene at a time. 2) You only see the scene they got right. You have no idea how many attempts it took to get that one good take. And besides, actors are only speaking what other people have written. Just look at Barack Obama as one example. He's as good as anybody at giving a scripted speech, but he stutters and his speech pattern is totally different when he has to think for himself. He's like a totally different person. Charles Bronson was an intelligent, articulate person. Many actors aren't.

DeNiro's a fantastic actor (moreso in the old days than now) with a temperament not that different from Bronson really. Politicians have to walk on eggshells not to say anything that gets them in trouble, so it's not fair to compare them with the greats. Dan Quayle or George W Bush couldn't finish a sentence, and Obama is charming but super reserved in impromptu speech (which can be frustrating).. but it has nothing to do with their skill as politicians - W and Obama were both two-termers.

The ironic thing was that Bronson didn't get his big break until he was almost 40. And he felt very resentful at how long it took to make it.

Had Charles Bronson not turned down the lead role in 1964's A Fistful of Dollars, the world likely would never have heard of Clint Eastwood. Bronson was a virtually fatherless, dirt poor, great depression-era coal miner, a world war 2 B-29 Aerial Gunner, and actor who scrapped by in Hollywood for more than 20 Years before emerging in the early 1970s as the #1 Highest Paid Actor on the Planet; and as you can see in this clip, not a braggart. Not your typical Hollywood Personality, then or now.

Their stories line up, but Charlie left a couple points out in this interview. One of the boys worked at the company store, so, they had a key.. They were running away, so, they went heavy helping themselves to food for the trip... As for Charlie getting shot, when that guard cornered the boys, he only had two of them cornered, on the ground from what i understand.. The third boy, Charlie, was on top of the train and had a huge chunk of coal over his head.. He was about to hurl it down on that guard...my pap was trying to shake his head " no" to Charlie, the guard picked up on it, swung around, and saw Charlie up there with the boulder about to be rained down on him, and drew his gun. After all this.. Charlie, who was 18, went to jail for a little while, my pap, who was 17, went to juvie, can't recall anything about the other kid.

dude walked the talk a time when talk shows were very interesting

What an incredible man's man's

"The Valachi Papers" (1973). One of the best organized crime movies, and one of the most under-appreciated. I saw it in New York the day it came out. Is it out on Blu-Ray?

Vin Diesel, Dwayne Johnson: We're the toughest guys ever in movies! Mr. Charles Bronson: Ha ha, that's a funny joke. In all seriousness, Mr. Bronson is probably the toughest looking actor to ever hit the movie screens and playing the toughest characters. Not to mention he grew up tough, so he's basically playing himself! A smart dude and a good storyteller. I could listen to him talk about anything. Rest in peace to such an amazing actor.

It's like he accepts just enough interviews to display his bluntness in order to discourage potential requests for future ones, which I very much imagine didn't sit too well with the heads of studios trying to promote his films.

First time I saw an interview with him. He does seem to be an edgy taciturn person, his conversation is exchanging information. I don't think we see his real personality here, he keeps alot inside, I guess prefers it that way. He's a generous man, raised one or more of a friend's kids when something happened to the parents.

I just don't like Dick Cavett in this. He's trying too hard to one up Bronson without Bronson realizing it, but Bronson knows what's going on.

The feeling of fearful hesitation that Cavett emits during this interview is hilarious ... Bronson sure has an aura of power about him.

I love the full version of this interview where Dick Cavett has to hold up and promote a brand of mascara while Bronson just sits there silently judging him.

Good stuff. Seems like a likeable guy. I have to admit, some of the bad stories I've read about him really started to turn me off, but seeing him here sparks my hope that he was a decent guy who just had a hard life when he was younger. Always been a fan since the 80's.

So thankful for this channel, amazing interview after amazing interview!

Good on him (Charles Bronson), unlike today's actors, if he didn't agree with the interviewer he would call them out on it... a very honest man, that didn't take crap or settle for fools... he didn't like the BS side of hollyweird, and the moment they tried it on him, he'd call them out on it straight away... gotta love integrity like that...

"The Dirty Dozen", "The Vallaci Papers", "Once upon a Time in the West", "Telefon". Damn! He did a lotta great movies.

A man's man like they don't make them anymore.

Cavett isn't so glib around Bronson. He forced a no-nonsense interview out of Cavett. Love to see what he'd do with Kimmell or that clown on the tonight show.

When I was a kid in Fairbanks, AK, we used to jump the train coming out of Wainwright Army base after it crossed the Chena River. It would slow down for the bridge and as it sped back up we would wait for the locomotive to go by and jump on the cars. It was a way to get across town fairly fast. A good fight for a film with some street cred authenticity would have been Bronson and Sean Connery. They both came up in some tough situations and knew how to handle themselves in real life before becoming actors.

I love charles bronson one of very few greatest actors

At one point not that long ago (maybe a year ago) the full interview with Bronson & Jill Ireland was on KZread but I can't find it now. I suppose this channel (The Dick Cavett Show) had it removed for copywrite reasons. Hopefully this channel will put up the full interview for us.

Bronson is amazing.

One the THE greatest.

Love that Charles Bronson.🙂

Charles Bronson such a wonderful great actor....

Charles Bronson, the man

Probably the most badass man EVER.
