- Viggo Mortensen, best-known for his role as Aragorn in "The Lord of the Rings" trilogy, is out with a new movie, "Captain Fantastic." It may look like an action flick, but he's not your typical superhero. Mortensen joins "CBS This Morning" to discuss his latest project.
One of the few actors who can actually handle a critical discussion about the work he does. Impressive.
Daniel Day-Lewis
I agree with every word .
He deserves an Oscar. What an incredible actor!
Osceanix No one will dispute that.
Absolutely!
Viggo is one of our greatest actors. This movie is excellent.
You're Danish ?
He is such an intriguing person and actor. He can act in several languages.
true very humble guy too.. off the grid type of guy..
earnest
no esperanto!
Good film, enjoyed the contrasts. These media fools (despite viggos efforts to explain it to them) completely missed the points of course
He turned 58 on October 20, 2016 and I still adore him so much. This movie is great.
58? are you sure the number is correct?!
Viggo is such a gift to humanity as an actor! Give him all the prizes in the world already. This movie is so touching, it is a must!
Giving him any awrad is kind of contradictory to the movie idea, don't you think?
Good film. Back in 1980, I went hobo for a little while. Hitchhiked across the country. Slept under bridges, in missions and that road life. Met guys doing what these folks are doing in the movie. It's definite worth exploring this world, but you have to know what that means. First of all, living alone in the woods...you have to be in massive physical shape. If you are not in the shape of a pro athlete, you are in huge trouble. And alone? Alone is tough. Ancient cultures did not do it alone. If you are alone in the woods and just break a leg...you could die from just that. So, it's a tough road and hard. But...and here's the thing...yeah, you can bring a lot of that kind life into yours. You can train and through hike the Appalachian Trail or one of the other major trails. We knew some lawyers who made huge money for 9 months of the year and spent the other three months just hiking the world. So, the hippie trip does have real freedom. You just have to be careful about going whole hog or doing it without planning. And don't forget that the outer freedom has to be supplemented by the inner freedom. And that you get from peace and spirituality, from things like Hatha Yoga and meditation. Without the inner discipline, the outer stuff eventually becomes superficial and boring.
Why alone? You could go with a bunch of other like minded people?
this is one of the best comments I've ever come across. thanks for your insight and sharing your experiences!
we are so proud of him here in Denmark
well in argentina too...lol he was raised here.....till he was ten...He has a lot of custum from here....
Have you watched "Rita"?😁😁😁LOVE HER!
Yes, he is very much loved wherever he is, because he is an amalgamation of cultures and he is very cosy wherever he happens to be! Very authentic person. One of those singular actors out there. I am glad that LOTR put him where he belongs.
Still my favorite work experience. Very thankful to be part of it.
best quote in the movie - "Americans are under-educated and over-medicated."
And overfed.
Welcome to 2020 where they may be the only ones that survived the Coronavirus Off grid
And overweight
@@jamesoconnor8217 Are you saying that everyone who was off the grid at the time didn’t survive? Or are you perhaps saying that the only people that survived Covid were off the grid? Neither way of interpreting what you said makes sense to me.
@@decoratedmop it's pretty clear he meant the latter?
Viggo Fantastic.
He is such a fascinating individual. He has an intellect that transcends the medium of expositional impersonation which engenders an impulse from we the viewers to explore further into the channels of his mentality and creativity.
Woa.....
gayeeeeee
weird flex but okay
His face, when the camera cuts to him after the first clip.
That's the face of someone who knows he's been a part of a great film.
'Do you believe all that stuff too?'
You mean the facts that were just presented??
5:22 That's some major flirting. Love it
A Great actor
Terrific movie and glimpse into the dynamics of a family we are told is wrong or unhealthy. What truly matters when raising a family is what this movie is all about. Viggo, your performances leave my mouth speechless and my mind full of thought. A very admirable human being.
Viggo tomando mate en la escena del desayuno familiar:un gesto de reconocimiento a su infancia. Hermosa película, moviliza y llama a la reflexión.
Wanted to see this in the movies but did have the money but I finally got to see this yesterday and it was Amazing! Reminds me of a good cult classic movie years from now people will be quoting from!
You can tell that his words come from a place of passion rather than just wanting to promote the movie during his interview circuit.
He conveys so much in his facial expression and eyes!
This movie is amazing, the acting really is on point and I loved it
I loved this movie
So fascinated to listen to and find out about Life of Viggo Mortensen
Voice is so natural and cultural
Complete honesty.... Thats life
Captain Fantastic
we should try living off the grid, without cell phones, electricity, social media, and see what is it like. this may happen one day.
we did live without internet, cell phones, and need to realize that.
Sooner Science Nerd ha ha 99% couldn't do it
Even while living on grid, we should try to stay away from stuff like social media. And other bad things.
Beautiful movie: must see
INCREDIBLE ACTOR.
Love that movie. Love Viggo. Thanks for sharing this interview!
I really appreciate his perspective on these subjects
'Do you believe all that stuff?' fkn condescending tone...these types of movies are meant for folks like that.
Wouter d.B. Wow, I totally agree! Her opening words hit me in the gut. She obviously didn't "get" it & really obviously needs to! I adored seeing this dedication to raising children with purpose & knowing the meaning of life. Not materialism & absence of parental involvement. Make her watch it 100 times!
Such an amazing mind opening film.
I love how he skipped the first question :D
when he is in Denmark he always go to his aunt to eat "frikadeller"
This is a film that is entertaining and inspiring...my favourite movie! Trying to escape the Mc Donald'd world trying to live in the grid!
I appreciate how articulate and openly self-reflecting Viggo Mortensen was about his character, Ben, and what he took away from the process of making this film.
movie made me cry at times... and that happens not to often and i would never admit it ^^
One of my favorite movies following LOTR. Why is viggo in 2 of my favs?
Viggo will always be Aragorm
Guess you mean Aragorn :)
an amazing movie. if you haven't seen it i highly recommend it
LOVE Viggo!
Thanks for that interview. Love that story.
Loved this movie so much! Viggo and the kids were amazing!
Actorazo!!! Me encanta el tipo. Desde promesas del este hasta cualquier produccion que encabeze.
Loved this movie!!!!
Lisa Sapien q
The all-seeing eye of CBS is watching you
god i so love this man. what a professional, what a superb work he does as an actor, never knew the man personally..but maybe someday:)...superb movies.
Viggo is a gentleman and a scholar and a truly great actor. He is so amazing in this film and each of the kids is perfectly cast and brilliant.
I loved his role in "The Road."
His role in Captain Fantastic seems to be him preparing himself and his kids for The Road.
I loved this film, it was really entertaining.
Aragorn!!
I can't wait to see this!!
Absolutely love this dude!!!!
Such a great movie!
weirdly a fantastic movie...........................definitely gonna remember this movie for a long long time..................what is rape?
Rape is a type of sexual assault usually involving sexual intercourse or other forms of sexual penetration carried out against a person without that person's consent. i just watched the movie :)
@@tamaashii usualy done by a male to a female
@@-genesis-182 OK we do not procede further :)
I feel so old!
Her eyes says everything 5:21
Great movie. The acting was amazing as well
A genius actor.
Terrific movie!
Anyone who didn't get something out of this film wasn't paying attention.
I’m so used to seeing viggo with a beard, lord of the rings and then this movie. He looks… different shaved.
Thats Gavin Belson!!!!!
Great film! Bravo viggo!
Viggo the best
very good movie!
Jstoney127 it's just a penis... everyone's got one
" falling " for Viggo. - ga
Is this Walther coinstau, Nicolaj the 2
second best movie you ever been the road was the best
They all look Mwee tirado in this... fluorescent lights.
2:43 When you have no fucking clue but trying to looks smart.
LOL!! Her look you mean? I know right - hilarious. Wish i could post memes here, cuz we need to drop a Fry here..
Yes she had no idea.. nothing important to say.
For the king! AAAAAA!!
Viggo isn't a captain....
The man is a general.
This guy is so underrated it's not EVEN FUNNY.........
Older boy is the main character in 1917 and younger boy is the bully in IT
❤
The truth always come out in the end, so don't try to hide it, just be honest.
Never had I think It'sa bad father.
IMHO
bel homme!
a lot of endo
Bernie Sanders Say,,,,, denmark is Great, hmmm
damn he looks old
Well he still looks pretty good to me, and he has a brilliant mind...
Stephen Curry Well, he is 58 years old
“It’s not political, it’s not some left-wing off grid fantasy at all”... i like the movie, but that statement is blatantly wrong. All the characters are extreme left wing / communist, or apolitical. The movie touches on right wing politics with condemnation alone (as fascism). Very political movie, since politics is not important for the plot at all - so bringing it in was a deliberate choice, even though off-grid people are just as much extreme right as left. Left wingers do it for nature, to reconnect, right wingers do it to escape multiethnic/multicultural societies (general main motivation of these two groups).
Mok Klonge That does not make it less political. Making them communist was not necessary.
@@noname-vc2ll That is wrong.
Worst Movie I EVER WATCHED , and believe it or not I was on the Watertown Swim team with Viggo in the early 70's . this movie was a Joke... My Son and I Laughed all the way through it........ confirmed my basic thought that Viggo is nothing more than a privileged Flower Child.... Off my List Viggo BY BY .. Using Flint to start fire... but you have a travel van complete with two air conditioners .... Captain Joke ..... But The Cheese eaters of America bought It ... For me ............. you owe me back two hours of my life.... This Joke of a movie was a Banal Blast of Boredom fro, the Hall of Shame...
John Soderquist
You should not run people down. Sounds like a jealous rant.
John Soderquist what does the fact you were on the swim team with him got to do with your comment on this film? Is that your claim to fame?
All you've managed to do is show how bitter and jealous you are.
John Soderquist I'm left speechless by your absolute stupidity and ignorance
John Soderquist Finally another sane human being. I don't know how people have not heard about this movie because it is complete idealogical trash, unless the director wanted to showcase the dangers of living in a cult. I thought that when the kids were staying with the grandparents he would do the right thing and keep away from them doing what was best for them and making a difficult sacrifice, but instead he uses manipulation to bring them back and dance around their mother's burning corpse and flushing her down the toilet. The characters end up having no character arc and end up exactly where they were before.
Freddie Williams Delusional in multiple ways than one
NOT IDLY DO THE LEAVES OF LÓRIEN FALL
Best comment haha just the best
