Seriously, is there anybody who does not like Danny? This is a great interview. You can tell he's speaking out of love and from the heart about Andy.

Very good point. He "broke on through to the other side." It's scary, though. There's something very scary about losing oneself for the sake of creative expression.

Danny, hit it on the head. Andy wasn't a comedian, I rarely laughed out loud at his stuff...but as a performance artist he was an absolute genius. Unparalleled and unsurpassed to this day. Thanks Andy.

​@@sullywinn4225 Yes, Andy Kaufman was funny, no doubt about that. But humor is subjective, right? Your version of 'funny' does not have to align with mine and vice-versa, and that's toally fine, we both can still be right within the confines of our bad takes on what humor is. But he was also a brilliant performance artist. IMHO Andy was not really aiming for the laughs, he was crafting a mind-bending experience. I don't even think he took the audience into consideration most of the times, he was just performing for the sake of performance. To me, that’s pure genius, it’s like he was playing 3D chess while everyone else was playing checkers. So, yeah, he was hilarious, but he was also so much more than that. He was an performance artist, through and through.

Can’t remember the last time I watched a whole 30 minute interview without pausing it. Well done!

If there's a Nobel Peace Prize for comedy then Andy, Danny & Jim should share it!!! What a brilliant interview full of joy & pathos!!👍✌️

I saw 'Man on the moon' for the 1st time a couple of weeks ago. Brilliant film, Jim Carrey was brilliant as Andy Kaufman, didn't know anything about Kaufman before seeing the film and saw some side by side comparisons of real life Kaufman footage next to Carrey as Kaufman and saw how brilliant both Kaufman and Carrey were and still are.

There is an Andy Kaufman award for best new comic of the year.

Jim was absolutely robbed, disrespected, sidelined... He deserved the Oscar for his work in Man on the Moon and the Academy snubbed him.

Absolutely entertaining. Taxi. Man On The Moon. Wonderful. We had a tuff life in the 70's. We all knew to be quiet when Taxi was on. My Dad laughed until he cried😂❤

Danny Devito is so compassionate and really expresses his love for Andy and knows that he is always with us the soul never dies

What a fantastic interview and isn't it wonderfully sadly sweet to see how emotional Danny is when talking about his friend.

Danny´s impression of Milos Forman is amazing and so accurate.

I LOVE devito's take on the idea of genius. He's truly such a treasure. I'd love to meet this man one day

I drove for a cab company on the west side of manhattan in the 70's. We had characters just like the TV show Taxi, including a "Starter" who was a short bald headed man who towered over us behind a glass window in an elevated booth just like louie. You had to "shape up" which meant you had to wait a few hours for an available cab, so there were all sorts of characters sitting around for several hours a day. I was floored by the TV show - it was so true to life for me.

I’m a brit,I watched taxi in the 70s on our tv late night Friday, 16 years old ,loved everything about it,oh those characters, and marilu was my first fantasy

What a great interview. This was so good from Danny's side of it. You can really tell how he loved Andy and how he really loved Jim's performance of Andy.... I love this movie. It is one of my favorites of all time....

10:27 The look of pure delight in Danny's face as he recalls Jim's devotion warms my heart 💕

It is amazing that this interview was 1999 ! The last century ( 20th ) . Seems so long ago. Andy Kaufman was a absolute genius!

Why are there thumbs down for this video? Don’t understand. Great listening to Danny.

Great interview. I went and saw Andy Kaufman at the Improv so many times. Very strange...wouldn’t talk to anyone else at the bar. All his performances were so offbeat. Also saw Freddie Prinze and Jimmy JJ Walker there.. fun times.

Someone with whom Andy worked who really understood what he was doing was Jerry Lawler. Check out some shoot interviews with him discussing working with Kaufman. Andy was a huge fan of professional wrestling, and had a tremendous instinct for drawing heat as a heel. He could also draw the sympathy of a babyface. He was a walking wrestling promo. Hollywood wasn’t ready for that.

The tears that start to form in Mr. DeVito's eyes as he is relegating the story of Carol Kane poking Andy in the coffin as she didn't believe he was dead just shows how much Danny loved him and had hoped it was the best prank ever pulled by Andy on his friends.

My wife and I just watched the movie last night, and loved it!

Sometime during the mid 1970's I saw Andy at a small club on Long Island named My Father's Place. The reaction John Belushi described to Danny is the same reaction the audience had at that club. For a while, no one was sure if Andy was putting us on or if he was really that awkward foreign guy. Right at the moment when everyone was convinced that what Andy needed was a to be given the hook, he did his Elvis impersonation and the audience reacted the same way in which the scene is portrayed in Man On The Moon. That night, Andy was the opening act for a popular musician and he made such an impression that he was the only thing anyone could talk about at the end of the night. I cannot recall who the main act was!

Man on the moon was amazing and so was Andy

Some people refer to multiple personality disorder...I think Andy had multiple personality IN-order...what a talent

When he says, "Andy came to the set or Tony, not Jim." To fully appreciate that you would have to see "Jim and Andy" the documentary on how much Jim went into Andy. He came as Andy for everyone there, the cast, crew, anyone that knew Andy and wanted to meet him. Andy's daughter that never met her father.

Great interview. Thanks for the video.

R.I.P. ANDY KAUFMAN! LOVE THIS INTERVIEW AND I LOVE THE MOVIE!

Thanks a lot for this interview... ❤️💯

Love Danny, a great guy, and his wife Reah, two brilliant actors, and really grounded people, grew up watching Taxi, but Danny is great in everything.

Devito is an amazing interview. I could listen to him tell stoires for hours.

Danny so cool, great interview. Speaking about Andy with reverence.. cA

Favorite show of all time, and the best casting of all time Danny De Vito, genius

That was a really enjoyable interview. Nice one, thanks :)

Love Danny! (and Andy!) Great interview!

i love danny devito.he is amazing.i loved him as the penguin.he is one of my favorite movie stars.

I think Ive watched this 6 times in the last 2 days. Cant get enough of danny/andy/taxi Dannys stories here are 💯

Great interview. Andy was a great man, as a big fan I really enjoyed Jim's portraying of him in Man on the Moon. Great movie.

Andy Kaufman was born before his time - Casting Carey as Kaufman was genius! 👏👏👏👏👏

I truly love Andy’s work

Danny DeVito must be one of the sweetest guys in Hollywood. Gives full credit to screenwriters, a gentleman to interviewers, lovely to his fans, the stories about how he and Rhea cared for Mara Wilson during Matilda. This is a great interview.

Beautiful homage to Andy Kaufman. To think that they thought Andy might be pulling a prank at his own funeral.

Greatest movie I ever see "Man on the moon" , Danny Devito is talking truth, Jim Carrey did brilliant job. Thanks to Danny Devito giving us this incredible experience.

That was beautiful!

What a fantastic interview.

I wish they would run Taxi again!!! Loved that show!!!

Danny DeVito was carved out of the mists of time.

That ‘s a great movie I love it till today...thanks for share this interview what a Great actor is De Vito ...best wishes all

Interesting interview, of how a film project germinates, big name director and production co, finances first, players next, and the principal actor, & strong screenplay, most important, well done♡

Danny DeVito is a good guy.

This movie treatment handles ANDY like he was some surreal painting and a clever fiction.

Thanks Chollie

It actually brings tears to my eyes to hear him describe how the film got going, and his feelings about “a sweet guy,” the inimitable, inscrutable Andy Kaufman.

I want Tony Clifton and Jiminy Glick to have an interview together

Love u Danny ur class act great interview 😁🇨🇦🇨🇦

The genuis shouldnt make me tearup but it always does

I guess I need to rewatch Man in the Moon!

It's 2018 and I miss Andy still..misunderstood

Superb movie, great interview

Danny is so intelligent.....DAAAAAANG! 😝♥️

Danny is one of the best . He’s really a class act . I’ve liked him from the first time I saw him in twins back in 87 or 88 when I was 7. Then later seeing Louis Depalma and of course cuckoo‘s nest. I was hooked .

Danny is right. At 17:05 he mentions Andy was bombing and you felt sorry for the guy. Thats what Andy was looking for. Your emotions, he had you.

That was amazing interview

amazing interview!

What an incredibly generous interview; given how much Kaufman screwed the cast and production crew of Taxi around so much. De Vito is one of the most considered and articulate actors around IMO.

Awesome interview! I love the movie!

Just saw the movie... Thanks Danny for this!

amazing interview

Such a great interview. Charlie Rose is a legend, along with the great Danny DeVito

talk about an inescapable grasp of poetry. this is why DeVito.

Danny is a brilliant storyteller- that’s not easy to captivate an audience- but for those who have a passion for what they’re sharing you feel the love, that genius and generous 🥰

Danny Devito, and Andy Kauffman were very great friends. The cast of Taxi was a perfect blend of actors who worked great together. Wish the show didn't end.

The movie is really special. well made and also crafted with a lot of love for Andy and his character. So many people involved in his life and career also involved with the movie, you could feel that it was more than your typical "pay sum a to make sum b" movie.

he was awesome as The Penguin and did a great job directing Matilda

This is such a great interview, can't wait for the brand new Netflix docu "Jim and Andy - The Great Beyond" coming out in a week!

Wonderful interview

Amazing interview, and I may be repeating what others commented but the documentary “Jim and Andy” is incredible. I don’t think anyone else could have done the movie Man on the Moon justice. I suppose Peter Sellers was equally committed to the bit (see documentaries about how directors hated working with him because he refused to break character for the entire shooting of movies like “Dr Strangelove” and he even refused to break character when his mom visited the set of dr Strangelove and that was their final encounter sadly). But aside from the long deceased Peter Sellars I think only one guy could have played Kauffman and we’re lucky Jim Carrey committed so hard to those characters. And I love how much love and respect Danny DeVito has for both men. Again, amazing interview and DeVito went up another peg in my book, which is hard to do since he was already awesome before I saw this.

happy 75th birthday daniel michael devito !!!

DeVito is the best

I am a writer, and former producer/host of TV shows. As I watch Danny, I'm thinking that Danny as himself is a superb character...quieter, more nuanced. The film Man On The Moon is one of my favorites, and I think Carey's Tony Clifton is the funniest of all those created...including Kaufman's. Jim took the craziness to a bit higher level, where Andy's Clifton was a bit more subdued. But to get Clifton, you see, you have to go to the moon.

So Andy, did you hear about this one? Tell me, are you locked in the punch? Hey Andy, are you goofing on Elvis? "Hey, baby" Are you having fun? If you believed they put a man on the moon (Man on the moon) If you believed there's nothing up his sleeve Then nothing is cool

I really enjoyed this

World treasures, Danny and Andy!
