Thanks for uploading this video . It was nice to see Michael at this period of time and was a great interview . He didn't know it then but he was already showing signs of Parkinson's . During the Back to the future II filming he had to recreate the "Johnny B. Good" number from the first film and he later wrote in his memoir it was much harder physically and he was achy for weeks afterward . He just put it down to ageing then but now realizes that normal ageing in just 4 years from the first film didn't account for how difficult it was or the toll it took .
and he Is now! he has same character and personality. the disease doesnt identify him or anybody. he is the same humble, kind and caring soul. with the disease he became more strong, more inspirational to others. Miss seeing him and his lovely jokes and smile, which brings smile to me.
Still is. Parkinson's effect your facial expressions so the camera will sometimes struggle to catch, but in videos and some very recent photos he's just as beautiful and charming and young as he was all these years ago. Magic never ages. No matter the circumstances.
It doesn't matter how short or tall he is Michael just has "it". I'm 5"9 and I think if I met a guy like him I would have given him a chance. I understand It's all in the way you carry yourself and accept who you are. I'm happy for his success, his loving marriage etc.
I doubt you would have if he wasn't this rich and famous. If he was just some guy working in an office you'd have kept thinking damn 5'4 and I am 5'9 I don't think I want someone shorter than me. So yeah maybe a fling but doubt it'd turn to anything serious. How could you do this to your kids who'll prolly end up being shorter than you. 🤣😂🤣😂
“The thought of working for a non profit organisation” disgusted his character in family ties, fast forward to today and he has founded one of the biggest charities in the world due to Parkinson’s
Great actor my kids love to watch him still! Have noticed when he was younger here he was figgity and has a nervousness my mother also had that when she was younger and worried alot. Just wondering if that could be symptom or cause of Parkinson's later. Cause i myself am nervous and high strung.
Nancy McKeon (a.k.a. "Jo Polniaczek") from The Facts of Life was the woman Micheal J. Fox was dating at the time whom he was referring to. They dated for 3 years.
He is my inspiration because I am also 5"4".I am 17 and I am 5.4 since I was 13 years old.Teenage was the time to grow but I couldnt grow even 1cm after that.Very sad and I am about to be turn 18 now after 1 month still same as usual 😭😭😭😭😭😭😭
Audie Murphy was about an inch taller than you. But he intimidated guys who were over 6’feet and out weighed him by fifty pounds. Had the hands of a girl but had lightning reflexes. That was how he stayed alive.
@@jewel79 Yeah I guess that makes sense. On Netflix though there's a lot of movies where they dub over the actor's voices with someone else's voice and it sounds really weird sometimes.
That's how all the Soviet films were made, actually - mostly for technical reasons. They also used to change actors, and, so, for example, in an adventure musical one actor would be on screen, another one (sometimes a really well-known one with a very distinct voice, which made things super weird) would speak, another one would sing and plus a stunt double. Four people to portray one character!
отношения должны приносить плоды, люди должны общаться и делать все дела так чтобы был результат. короче говоря они должны быть результативными. я об отношениях.
@@jenpeterson3712 I’m for actors having some range but an actor also has to protect their likability if they are gonna continue to get people to see their movies. What was the one where Arnold was pregnant? Seriously. An action guy having a baby and it wasn’t even particularly funny. Robin Williams playing a serial killer. Whenever you have a likable actor play an unlikable role, not one of redemption but one where they are just creepy or a jerk, it’s difficult to come back suddenly and be likable again. There are some actors who can be a jerk and pull it off but those guys have something else going for them. Will Smith has been pretty smart with his career but some guys get on top and the get tired of being liked don’t want to be typecast. It’s actually more difficult to be likable than it is to be the bad guy. In fact almost any actor can play the creep. A much smaller percentage can be loved.
@@gutenbirdactors get typecast. Michael was great in Spin City. He was great in The American President. Michael tried serious roles, which I liked, but preferred doing comedy, which was better. Yes, Arnie with that particular role was silly. I love Arnie. Kindergarten Cop was one of his best.
@@jenpeterson3712 MJF was a pretty decent actor with a great flair for light comedy who played clean cut. Once he started getting less clean cut, he lost a lot of his audience. An actor usually has to play to his strengths especially if you are playing the GOOD GUY.
@@gutenbird Michael was a great actor and proved his versatility even in Family Ties. Back then, sitcoms offered so much more variety. He had it in him to do both.
I miss the 80's.

@@Nati4Truth 100% agree. You should check out the BTTF episode of reunited apart by Josh Gad. He is still funny and charming. :)

His marriage stayed strong because crazy female fans sent constant death threats to his gf and later wife, Tracy.
@@SayAhh Guys we should thank god he's married a mentally healthy woman. At least she doesn't shoot housekeepers
Love you michael.
Are you related to him?

yeah it’s because the character’s opinions have nothing to do with his own opinions
One of the best shows, ever!
Yo im so proud at his first win in emmy also when he said that "i feel 4 feet tall" i feel him lmao
Not Oscar, it's emmy
He said "I FEEL 4 feet tall."

What year is this interview from?
1989, right before BTTF Part II came out, I had this episode of 20 20 taped that night as well, brings me right back :)
@@MapleJames76 Thanks! :)
4:51 What happened there? Howie Mandel looked stunned! 😲
Looks like he stepped on that woman's dress.
4:55 mood
"eight hugely successful seasons" , where's the eighth? :(
It’s…a…secret
To Everybody
So @ 9:10 they dub over a movie you already recorded?
if there are sound problems and this kinda stuff they always dub it with new sound afterwards... normal in movies really

7 seasons... not 8. Come on 20/20, you're better than that!
True
It’s sad when actors start playing stupid roles that sabotage their careers.
Give me an example
