+Anton Tati She really is a very good actress and she also gave the great Jennifer Lawrence invaluable lessons in the Beaver and helped shape her career as an actress. I love Jodie Foster because she is so talented and at the same time down to earth and unpretentious like Jennifer Lawrence.

Truly. Check out the Interview Magazine interview of Jodie by Andy Warhol, circa 1980. At 17 she goes toe-to-toe with NYC art world mucky-mucks and her intellect cuts like a knife, short and sharp. Stunning then and now.

I really enjoyed that interview. She is an amazing woman, very classy and humble. I think Ben was really at ease with her enabling him to do such a detailed interview. Good work!

Ben's a great interviewer. This interview and his one with Tarantino really kept me interested.

Every time Ben interviews someone on WTF such as Jodie Foster and Quentin Tarantino, I always get excited and root for Ben that he got the access to interview these people. Ben knows how to interview well, and it seems like the guests he brings on feel truly comfortable. It's really cool seeing how much What The Flick has grown in views and followers over the years.

that's was a very cool interview. She's so soft spoken and down-to-earth. You forget how many great movies she's done since she's not in the limelight that often anymore. Solid interview, Ben.

Who doesn't have a tremendous admiration for the genius Jodie Foster

The Beaver was way better than I expected. Truly enjoyable.

She surprised me. I knew she is a nice person from the movies but she really is smart and likeable. Glad I could watch this interview, thanks.

IMO, Jodie Foster gave the single greatest female performance of all time in Contact. Very excited to see Money Monster. It looks great.

Was only going to watch a few minutes but wound up watching the whole thing. Love Jodie. Thanks for the interview!

finally a beautiful woman with brain, very mature & talented , positive and smiling !!!!!

Excellent interview! She is simply perfect......smart, funny, unaffected, and just delightful.

Ben great interview. I have fallen in love with Jodi Foster again. And yes The Beaver was a quirky, emotional movie that I didn't think I'd like. I was wrong. Be Well.

+Al Mahdi Alaoui its actually not that difficult to be a good interviewer, if youre interested you will inevitably be a good interviewer/it will be a good interview. the problem is, if you do this professionally, at some point you are gonna have to interview someone who doesnt interest you and/or who doesnt have anything interesting to say - this is where it really shows whether or not youre a good interviewer. ben said right at the beginning he adores her and she is obviously an extremely interesting person, so this one isnt really hard..

do more quality interviews like this

That was the perfect interview.

Very interesting. Thank you for this.

+Andrew Williams If you ignore its politics, TYT has actually a strong business model, really low-cost (just commentary, instead of creating original work),. Believe me that getting journalists to write lengthy, nuanced pieces is so much more difficult and expensive. Read Cenk's columns at Huffington Post, they're lacklustre. TYT have loads of channels/ brands to cater for different niches in pop-culture. Also worth noting that they're the only "self-serious" (production values) news show in the KZread space. It's pretty fascinating if you've watched for long, like me, to see their growth.

+AY Berhe (thebiggerhand) Interesting comment. I've been watching a few years now. At one stage I quit because of some strong elements I did not agree with, however I returned to them because I like enough of what they discuss. Even if my views and philosophies are different, I still find value in their views and this interview was top class with Jodie Foster. I have strongly agreed with their position on money in politics and police brutality, but am quite strongly opposed to their take on global geo-politics such as the position on Russia and Putin. I also do not share their degree of Liberalism, being more of a social conservative myself. I'm also not as pro Bernie Sanders as they are, but I don't come strongly against him either. But i'll definitely agree that TYT has a good business model and they do their jobs very professionally. They are sort of giving news of the news. It's an added take on the manipulation of the mainstream media, which I like.

Nice to see Jodie back in the spotlight looking happy engaged and invigorated. It's been a long time since Silence of the Lambs and Contact, and eons since Taxi Driver.

Great stuff. 'Hotel New Hampshire' was an incredibly formative movie in my teens. Bit freaked out she's only 9 years older than me.

Isn't she brilliant! I love her! Thanks for the upload!

Ive always thought she was British for some reason this is the first interview of her I've ever seen

Why hello, Clarice.

She is a total joy to listen to. I would love to have a cup of coffee with her.

As someone who used to watch Skins back in the day (against my better judgement), I'm so happy to see Jack O'Connell doing well, because he's brilliant.

Jodie Foster is still a hottie.

Was this video private or something? Only 10,000 views... and I swear it wasn't here when I was checking for your Game of Thrones review the other day.

Pretty good interview, Ben. I am wondering if there is a pre-interview agreement not to discuss John Hinkley. I would have asked here about Inside Man, one of her best roles in later years and whether she would ever direct or even act in an action/superhero flick. But otherwise, a good interview, I had not planned to watch the whole thing. Good luck with your new film, JF!

Jodie Foster refuses to age. I'm jealous lol. Love her movies. Especially Contact.

Love Jodie she is absolutely amazing I hope to meet her and get so much advice on how to be a great actress

What a wonderful woman. Smart, entertaining and well spoken. Great.

I first watched "Contact" as a kid, maybe around 10 years old. It's the film that sparked my interests in space exploration, astronomy, and physics. I think it's a great movie--in my Top 100.

I think Jodie is a wonderful actress, and very intelligent. She is so unassuming and natural.

Incrível. como essa atriz é deslumbrante e grandiosa.Tão talentosa que se torna atemporal.

Ben normally forgets everything, you can see he really takes this seriously because he remembers everything

So is Jodie a What the Flick fan?! She doesn't tend to do many interviews.

Not sure why I'm leaving a comment, as Ben makes a point of ignoring feedback on these videos, but I hope someone at TYT will tell him thank you for doing such a good job. Along with his Tarantino interview, it's my fave wtf vids.

Keep doing your thing Jodie.

The greatest

Don't know why but when I saw it was Jodi I was like, OMG, what a coup for Ben! And it isn't like I am a huge fan but she has that allure that is unique to only her and makes me hang on her every word.

I enjoy Ben's intros on Turner, and who doesn't love JODIE!
