His other early film appearances include "Mystic Pizza" and "Adventures in Babysitting." He also executive-produced and portrayed 1960s counterculture icon Abbie Hoffman in the film "Steal This Movie" opposite Janeane Garofalo and starred opposite Jennifer Lopez and Vince Vaughn in the science-fiction noir film "The Cell."

D'Onofrio directed, produced and starred in a short film, "Five Minutes, Mr. Welles." He also acted in "Brooklyn's Finest," starring opposite Richard Gere and Don Cheadle and "Staten Island" opposite Ethan Hawke.
    Vincent worked on the Academy Award winning short film The New Tenants and the feature filmThe Irishman. Most recently, he worked on The Tomb, Ass Backwards, Supreme Ruler, The Necessary Death of Charlie Countryman and Fire with Fire.
    D'Onofrio received an Emmy® Award nomination in 1998 for his riveting guest appearance in the "Homicide: Life on the Street" episode, "The Subway."
    Away from the set, D'Onofrio enjoys spending time in New York with his family.

      EXACTLY!! When I see CI is coming on I get so happy, and then disappointment sets in when it's not him and I just change the channel. It's not the same without him.

    he is such an amazing actor!i love how he just gets into his craft and can do so many things at the same time when the camera is rolling.i mean Morgan Freeman admittded that he cant do accents nor is he a method actor yet here is Vincent who can do both.Also I liked how he said he don't need a press agent for people to know him.His work does that for him.A great interview.

    I am not an actor, but I am a writer. I admire the advice that Mr. D'Onofrio has for artists, and it holds true, I love research, and the knowledge will always remain. Perhaps this comment won't be seen by Mr. D'Onofrio, but I have to personally say thanks for the news on Johnny and Me, my daughter is Asperger's, and she is a great teacher. Thanks for holding true to the art.

  • @djdollase
    @djdollase 2 ปีที่แล้ว +3

    I’ve had the opportunity to work with Vincent twice in small roles on L and O: CI so this is a revelatory interview for me. Good questions and great, honest answers from one of the consummate actor-artists we have now.

    Maybe the best actor in Hollywood. I understand why he'd want to do TV, etc., but I wish he'd do more movies, because there aren't enough of them that feature him yet.

  • @MisterBrimm

    Wilson Fisk is going to be his most memorable role yet!

      He was perfect as Fisk. No one else will ever be able to play that role without being unfavorably compared with him.

      His wife was never a model, somehow the rumor came from someone who had no clue. His eldest daughter was an adult 4 years ago, but his 2 sons are young.

  • @whaziz
    @whaziz 8 ปีที่แล้ว +3

    Vincent seems nervous talking about his youth ... maybe being poor as a child? Don't worry Vincent; I was so poor my sis and I played with sticks and rocks out in the desert. I love you're versatility as an actor ... you attack every role with strength and do everything well. Some things I won't watch; Full Metal Jacket being one ... the scene from Homocide Life on The Street another. I've seen it full through once but won't watch it again. You suffer so well can't endure it. Still, I really admire you as an actor. Thank You for entertaining the world and for your love of dogs ...

    • @juvenilehall1979
      @juvenilehall1979 8 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Dear Mary .. Hello, also a BIG Vincent fan. "Full Metal Jacket" is very hard for me to watch. While stationed in Vietnam, I saw too many soldiers take their own lives. WHY ? A soldier gets shot by a VC sniper. He is bleeding so fast that there is no way a helicopter is going to get in - in time to pick him up - and the pain is getting worse. HE KNOWS HE IS GOING TO DIE - HE STICKS HIS M-16 IN HIS MOUTH AND ENDS IT ALL !!!. "Homocide Life on The Street" was a great episode -- Vincent really made it work along with Andre Braugher. Roger C.
      USAF ... 3 March 1968 - 3 March 1972. Was in Vietnam: 17 Feb 1970 -16 Feb 1971. I Thank God everyday that I am alive. :) :) At 66 years of age and living in San Diego, CA it doesn't get any better. This was a good interview - I just wish Vincent would have "been miced" - so he wouldn't have to worry about holding the mic.

  • @queuesnake704
    @queuesnake704 10 ปีที่แล้ว

    Good thing he included the studying (and in my case, entrepreneurship in new media). That's kind of a deal breaker for me and any future plans.

  • @BillieJean0902
    @BillieJean0902 10 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    Vincent was growing his hair out after having to shave his head to play Doc in the play "Clive", which ran off-Broadway from January to March 2013. He's a brilliant actor in stage, in film and TV roles. Check out his next live appearance at Joe's Pub in New York on March 24 with Dana Lyn. Trust me, you'll never forget it!

      @annastevens1526 2 ปีที่แล้ว

      Really glad they fixed that for the later conversations, it makes such a difference especially with actors who 'talk with their hands' or move around a lot! Must be hugely more comfortable for the interviewee too, not having to grip a handmike for so long.

  • @piffpaff9674
    @piffpaff9674 2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    Well, I would have loved to watch this interesting conversation in full length but the bad unprofessional sound is kind of annoying. It is somewhat odd that the sound people weren't able to put on the usual little micros... Who would like to talk 2 hours with a huge microphone in the hand?

Personally Stanley was able to live in the "" normal world and his world but when he crossed the line he died an unusual death and sadly he didnt understand he even crossed the line.
