By all accounts, he was. Before his role as ‘Killer Bob’, he had never acted. He was just working as a set decorator, and as they were setting up a shot in the making of the pilot in Laura’s bedroom, Lynch happened to see Frank working from a certain angle, and in typical Lynch fashion, decided right there and then that Frank was the perfect guy for the role. Lynch has always maintained that Frank Silva was a real ‘salt of the earth’ kind of guy, and all the other cast members have nothing but good things to say about him. Too bad he died too soon.
@@nadircatic3440 That’s a mistaken story Lynch corrected. Frank Silva was moving furniture in Laura’s room, then a woman co-worker outside told Frank to not trap himself in there, which Lynch overheard and inspired Lynch while Lynch imagined a trapped Frank in the room. Lynch then asked Frank if he had acting experience, Frank said yes, then they shot the infamous scene in Laura’s room where he’s hiding behind Laura’s bedpost.
It's so easy to see everyone is having a good time working with Lynch! Weird but heartwarming to hear Silva talk about his mother etc. I've never seen him talk outside the TP show.
The revelation of who killed Laura Palmer happens early during season 2 ... this newscast was about the season 2 finale ... the audience already knew by this point.
noisyturtle nobody got offended as much by every possible thing back in the 90s, spoilers for entertainment would have been way low in the list. Plus, there wasn't a huge internet community back then
the actor who plays Bob, so nice and friendly. when you see him on twin peaks you think he's actually Bob. rip too as well. seemed like a really cool guy
He absolutely does a great deal of acting. Don't confuse a lack of dialogue for a lack of acting ability. He's easily one of the most expressive performers in the cast. I'd say the only people who outshine him on that front are Grace Zabriskie, Ray Wise and Sheryl Lee. His three co-stars from the film.
Mike and Bob are the perfect duo, there's some un-used footage from the black lodge sequence of the last episode they use for atmospherics in the new blu-ray set that are AMAZING.
indeed, im so happy i jumped in on the serie itself without ANY knowledge outside from seeing one random episode years ago on television .... i'm so happy i dint watch the fire walk with me movie or anything else, it was such a fantastic experience!!
Frank's voice is so different to the rest of his being. It's wonderful to see him laughing and talking normally considering what he is known for playing.
I just love actors who play roles that become totally synonymous with their celebrity status yet are nothing like said role on a human level. RIP Frank Silva.
Bob really scared me and I even had nightmares about him for years, but seeing this interview, the actor comes across as a really lovely guy and I don’t think I will be scared to see him anymore.
I sent a whole packing crate of dead girls wrapped in plastic to Lynch's house and he never wrote back, I tell ya, when I see im, fella's gonna get a slap
You might not think much of BOB knowing it was just some lights guy, but seeing him as himself it's clear how great a choice it was getting him in the show. Like Badalamenti and lynch recording the midi notes for Laura's theme and on the screen it ended up looking like two mountaintops, it's all very cosmic Even the show is like that, begins great, most of second season is weirdly bad. Then most people hated Fire walk with me, and ending with the Missing Pages and the mostly beloved Return
The story lives on in Lynch's mind, watch some of his other films, they all link up in a strange way. I just watched a short film he did called "The Hotel" and it reminded me of TP a little. But the stuff afterwards, man, you spot so many connections.
У Боба (Frenk Silva) очень хищное лицо, он абсолютно незаменим, хорошо, что в "The Return", они не стали искать похожего актёра, а использовали CGI с его лицом.
Great news! Twin Peaks will be back but it will air on Showtime in 2016 in a limited release of only nine episodes. Hopefully it won't end in a cliffhanger like it did the last time.
Ha so true. It really is weird seeing this clearly very well rounded likable guy and equating them with the actor who STILL occasionally features in nightmares 23 years on! RIP Frank/Bob
I can't move on when I have finally found the root of all that is stupid. Mr. Pizzafondler, I salute you for your current and future achievements in your TH-cam posting career.
Not really. This aired just before the S2 finale, well after it had been revealed who killed Laura. Besides, ‘spoilers’ weren’t even a thing in television in 1991.
I can see why some people would be pissed about being spoiled, even if the show has been off the air since the 90's. Some people haven't seen it yet and would like to see it, like with me. But with me I'm not as mad because I already saw both seasons. here's my recap, Season 1: Good. Season 2: Good until episode 10, then despite having some good moments; it went down hill. But still check it out (I highly recommend it.)
Yeah he really terrified me as a kid and even made the name Bob scary the way Friday The 13th made Jason scary. They're innocuous sounding names other than that
Things were different back then. Twin Peaks was a very new concept for TV. Serial shows with overarching plot had never been done on tbat scale before.
She did say the last six episodes, so the killer was already revealed. We can argue there should be a window where content needs to remain spoiler free, but its not like she told us anything that followed the show didn't know already.
i love the mental image of david lynch being so floored by the revelation that the actors shared a birthday that he had to stop filming for the day
almost like there's some strange plan to life
Frank Silva smiling like a normal lovely guy is totally freaking me out.
He was “filled with secrets”.
I had the same feelings 😂
Poor Frank, I wish he would've been able to see The Return.
The Sphere Hunter Oh no. 😕Thought he was still alive.
The Sphere Hunter He kinda did "not in the real sense," but as a ball ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
He's still watching up to this day
I wish he would've been able to BE in The Return :'(
Who knew a gamer girl would also love Twin Peaks
aww Frank...he seemed like such a great person.
Poor guy
"I'M A NICE GUY!"- frank silva
Don’t go on the guy looks.
For putting on such a terrifying performance, Frank Silva looked like a charming human being.
By all accounts, he was. Before his role as ‘Killer Bob’, he had never acted. He was just working as a set decorator, and as they were setting up a shot in the making of the pilot in Laura’s bedroom, Lynch happened to see Frank working from a certain angle, and in typical Lynch fashion, decided right there and then that Frank was the perfect guy for the role.

Brewzerr wow, this is just really interesting..
@@Brewzerr Can't imagine anyone saying bad things about Frank Silva
Can’t imagine anyone else playing that role either.
No, you're wrong
Frank Silva - a very underrated actor should have been a bigger star, he had an outstanding presence on the screen.
He was working in stage moving furniture and he Got accidentally on shot. David Lynch saw him and Said he is our guy
@@nadircatic3440 That’s a mistaken story Lynch corrected.

Lol. He was a set decorator that got in the show by accident.
Great performance but he was never meant to be a big star or actor or anything.
@@user-wl2xl5hm7k I think the shot were you can see BOB in the mirror for a short moment is the one that was caught on accident.
@@danca8969 Yeah, that was after they shot the bedroom scene
It's so easy to see everyone is having a good time working with Lynch!
Weird but heartwarming to hear Silva talk about his mother etc. I've never seen him talk outside the TP show.
there is a great footage of Frank speaking at the Twin Peaks Fest in 1993.
wow, Frank Silva's voice is a lot lighter than I thought it'd be. He will be missed.
Wow, she just gave the entire plot away on live tv. I would've been pissed if I'd caught this back in the day.
it was already well established that BOB was the cause behind the murderer
meaters She said thru her singing dad.

learn what the word offended means
the idea of Lynch pausing the shoot of the last episode for some birthdays warms my heart
the actor who plays Bob, so nice and friendly. when you see him on twin peaks you think he's actually Bob. rip too as well. seemed like a really cool guy
Frank Silva was lucky enough to have the right face. He doesn't do much acting in the show, yet he portrays one of the most memorable characters ever.
He absolutely does a great deal of acting. Don't confuse a lack of dialogue for a lack of acting ability. He's easily one of the most expressive performers in the cast.

The anchorwoman gave like the most efficient plot summary of the main story arc I've ever heard lol.

Frank Silva is like a weird Keanu Reeves twin.
Yes agree🏞️ he's dolpenganger
Oh my god i was thinking that.
his evil doppelganger
I don't see the resemblance, but the politeness is definitely similar.
dont watch this if you haven't seen the show
indeed, im so happy i jumped in on the serie itself without ANY knowledge outside from seeing one random episode years ago on television .... i'm so happy i dint watch the fire walk with me movie or anything else, it was such a fantastic experience!!
God fucking dammit
@@jmanzo2009 :D
Unfortunately, Frank Silva lefts us very early...was a great loss..
I'm amazed how such loving person performed an evil demon...great talent.
this has to be the most wholesome thing to come out of Twin Peaks
i always remember bobs face as a child...23 years later and ive fianly watched twin peaks all the way through
so awesome to see them out of character and laughing. 3 legends right here.
Frank's voice is so different to the rest of his being. It's wonderful to see him laughing and talking normally considering what he is known for playing.
I just love actors who play roles that become totally synonymous with their celebrity status yet are nothing like said role on a human level. RIP Frank Silva.
ROP John Dunsworth, as well.
Шедевр ушедшей эпохи глубина резкости чувств и эмоций
RIP Frank Silva ;(
30 years ago, this video quality had been considered 'Crystal clear'.
What a magnificent memories of the past. These sounds, these faces, this is a poor-quality image. This is definitely a special style.
Bob really scared me and I even had nightmares about him for years, but seeing this interview, the actor comes across as a really lovely guy and I don’t think I will be scared to see him anymore.
"singing dad"
Seeing BOB and the Man from Another Place act like normal people is almost scarier...

I cant wait anymore since they announce the Blu-ray release on july 29, 2014. I wish it was today.
That last episode was a mindf^^^^. Incredible to think it was not the end.
PS Dale Cooper= Greatest Character ever
He has nothing on Dougie
Ever.
RIP Frank Silva and his voice sounded very different to what I expected .
I sent a whole packing crate of dead girls wrapped in plastic to Lynch's house and he never wrote back, I tell ya, when I see im, fella's gonna get a slap
That's because he ate them.
That's because you've got a shit sense of humour.
Bob Iger was the real villain all along.
Thanks so much for sharing, superb clip.
It's funny how people who play villians always come off as the nicest people in real life.
Watching Frank smile made me think "hell, who does he remind me of, here?" Damned if he doesn't have a facial resemblance to Keanu Reeves!"
You might not think much of BOB knowing it was just some lights guy, but seeing him as himself it's clear how great a choice it was getting him in the show.

Frank Silva strikes me as the sweetest guy ever
My birthday is also on October 31st haha, on Halloween! 😊 just like these two legends here, Frank Silva and Michael J. Anderson
WOW, BOB, WOW.
brilliant interview
It kills me that Frank wasn't alive to be in The Return
They should have talked to John hamm into it
@@Loonimis Jon Hamm playing Bob? He isn't scary at all haha.
What about Tom Hiddleston?
@@Loonimis how so??
Watching Bob in non-evil mode made me laugh like hell.
Miss you, Frank Silva.
woah..! if you've never seen twin peaks.. SPOILERS..! don't watch this..!!
Twin Peaks 2017 ended up being even better.
Fantastic!!!👍😃🌻🌷❤️
David Lynch plays the loud FBI Agent so funny
This is a great blast from the past! So cool & creepy that Man FAP & BOB have same birthday!!....and on Halloween, no less!!!! Great stuff.... 🚦
that pause at 1:55 just fits perfectly 😂
I loved Twin Peaks!
RIP Frank Silva
Frank's profile reminds me of Keanu Reeves. @ 1:50 But, that's just me. He was handsome when he wasn't acting nutty. lol. Love Twin Peaks. 😀
PS Frank Silva = Greatest Character ever
Hollywood and the Media is so bizarre, this whole piece fits directly into David's legacy.
Cute that they made the CNN logo in the Twin Peaks font colors.
Wow,,,, BOB was my nightmare for decades!! And it has ended today!!! I am not happy!!!
Great news! Twin Peaks will be back but it will air on Showtime in 2016 in a limited release of only nine episodes. Hopefully it won't end in a cliffhanger like it did the last time.

wow 90s fashion wow
And I thought Lynch was the master of confusing and disturbing imagery.
bob still scares me to this day!
Wow, didn't think Bob's actor would sound like that.
Man from another place,she keeps saying world

Jeez lady, spoil much?
Not really. This aired just before the S2 finale, well after it had been revealed who killed Laura. Besides, ‘spoilers’ weren’t even a thing in television in 1991.
@@Brewzerr yeah, it was a better time.
This was AFTER the show got CANCELLED during the SECOND SEASON. Everything she tells was 100% known by anyone that had been following the show.
My mother had one of those Coop T-shirts, one with a graphic of Michael Anderson on it.
The actor who played Bob (Frank Silva) died shortly after the filming of "Fire Walk With Me."
He's listed as dying in '95. The movie came out in '92. What's your definition of "shortly"?
@@MrJimmyTide 3 years
bob's so scary... thanks for posting this!
Holy shit I want that reporters blazer
Sometimes I have the feeling as if I see a glimpse of Bob everytime I watch in the mirror.
bob seems like such a nice guy lol RIP Frank

+Michael Blaine I don't know, that smile makes me uneasy!
Yeah he really terrified me as a kid and even made the name Bob scary the way Friday The 13th made Jason scary. They're innocuous sounding names other than that
I think it's fantastic that "Bob" had a gentle little hairdresser voice in real life. RIP Frank.
I've read many depoiments that said that Frank was totally opposed of Bob.
David Lynche's characters are remarkably interesting. I'm inspired by Twin Peaks. I want to create a work of fiction on par with it.
lol Silva mouths BOB right when the announcer does - creeeeeeepy...
ahora se puede ver en netflix, pero yo tengo las dos temporadas en dvd.
Is that the actress that plays Donna in the movie _Fire walk with me?_ sat in the crowd there? (0:59)
R.I.P Frank September 13, 2022
I wonder how would you feel if you meet that actor on the street after watching twin peaks....
Silva looks like such a sweet guy, but so creepy looking. RIP.
David Lynch is great for America.
Listening to two of the most creepiest characters speak so nicely 😅😅😅. Awesome
I see. Thanks for the info.
Spoiler alert, jesus.
Exactly - what an idiot
Things were different back then. Twin Peaks was a very new concept for TV. Serial shows with overarching plot had never been done on tbat scale before.
Frank Silva had a wickedly Vulpine face. Nice guy apparently - but you still wouldn't want to meet him on a dark night
Wow Bob Wow
She did say the last six episodes, so the killer was already revealed. We can argue there should be a window where content needs to remain spoiler free, but its not like she told us anything that followed the show didn't know already.
Rest in peace BOB
BOBS A LEGEND
It's my birthday, as well ;)
Bob seems a nice guy after all
I am Frank Silva.
I think Keanu Reaves in long grey wig would be quite good as Frank's doppelganger in the new season.
Mike Anderson has such a warm kindly expression.
RIP Bob
