One of the classiest, most dedicated character actors in the history of Hollywood, Eli Wallach was such a gem, as was his wife, Anne Jackson. A few years before he died, I wrote him a fan letter, and he sent me back an autographed picture of himself as Tuco in "The Good, the Bad, and the Ugly," along with a very long, handwritten letter, telling me all about his life as an actor. May his memory be for a blessing.
As charming and interesting as he is in this interview, such was he in real life! I had the pleasure to work with him in "CAFE CROWN" , on Broadway. He was always friendly and he regaled us with wonderful stories of his career without ever speaking ill of the many famous people that he knew and worked with. RIP Sir.
RIP and long live Eli Wallach (December 7, 1915 - June 24, 2014), aged 98
"If you are going to shoot, shoot don't talk"....I can't even imagine anybody that would be better than Eli as Tuco. They don't make them like that anymore. A true legend...
Could the interviewer be less engaged? Reading question after question by rote is NOT interviewing. Great that Mr Wallach was such an interesting subject.
Eli is so talented. I love him. Really one of the greatest!
What a professional. Such a rich life.
Greatly missed.
eli's memory is incredible - he starts spewing names instantly - and he is fun - he talks about the right things - the things that make his life interesting
way too short, what an amazing person. I could have listened to him for hours.

I love listening to Eli Wallach.
I adore Eli Wallach! He has a fabulous voice, is erudite and truly interesting.
One of my favorite actors. Thank you TCM for posting this video.
This was a great pleasure to watch. Couldn't hear the interviewer too well but by the responses... well done.
A wonderful interview by a wonderful actor.
Just watched Good, Bad and Ugly for the first time. I have to say, this guy was a hell of a lot more expressive and memorable than Clint or the other guy.
