Even in old age.....his awesome voice perservered......Great actor!
He was an older man, but he still had the chops. Listen to his voice and watch the eyes. He was a unique individual.
For certain.
I would have liked to have had the chance to meet him. He was the epitome of cool also.
@@ryanhodges7101 In early 50s my dad was staying at a hotel Mitchum’s mother in law owned. One day in the lobby Mitchum introduced himself “Hi, you must be Tom, I’m Bob, the son in law”. After a drink or 2 my dad said “Bob, you look kind of familiar “. Dad said was as nice a guy as you could meet.
Tom, that’s awesome. Bob really seemed like a regular guy. I bet him and your dad had a cool conversation. Take care man.
@@ryanhodges7101 Thanks, Ryan! Yes,, my dad was a WW 2 vet, and Irishman, so I bet was a cool conversation. I love that Mitchum quote, while he was living in Palm Springs, after he was released from jail for a marijuana rap, when asked about prison life “Was kind of like Pail Springs, but with a better class of people.” :)
@@tomarmstrong3297 Ireland was neutral.
One of the true great Actors, no thrills , no airs and graces, just straight up good guy, and very honest and sincere. Made some great films.
Oh, THAT voice! Robert Mitchum was the only man who called me "Doll" to my face AND I LIKED it!!!
Dear Susie- zoiks, I never saw your comment until today... that's a great story. How could you not love Mitch calling you "Doll"? When I met him that day, I said, "It's an honor to meet you." He replied, "Oh I bet you say that to all the girls..." Best wishes, Luke

How many “Hail Marys is that worth?”
Hello Doll.
Best actor ever
Please give me his voice
Robert Mitchum and Lee Marvin. Best voices of their generation of actors, bar none.
A great old time actor. He definitely has a voice of his own.
What a great face, what a great voice, it's fascinating watching him listening to the fairly long and round about questions.
Thanks for tuning in and commenting- he was always a hard person to interview- he only consented as a favor to Janet...
Even when he's old, Mitchum is ice cool.
Leaning....leaning...leaning on the ever lasting arm........
"Night of the Hunter" 1955. One of the best creepy scenes ever shot. Still gives me the jeebies.
I concur with PoppaBlue59, I watched Night Of The Hunter when I was younger, I purchased it on dvd when I became an adult. Still love it, as I have Robert Mitchem. Absolutely was a great man and actor.
Night Of The Hunter, my absolute favorite Mitchum film. The entire cast was superb, but Mitchum was just phenomenal.
Track of the cat was a great one
0:24 That voice broke the sound barrier...sent shivers down my spine. Nobody had a voice like Mitchum, even in old age it was still like velvet!
I have a lot to discover still about the man, these interviews are more inciteful than anything I have ever seen. Thank you.
I have enjoyed seeing him in films. So many. Thanks for sharing!
Thank you TOO for tuning in and watching- and for your kind comment... :)

R . I . P. Bobby . You were one of the best . There never will be anyone that could even come close to you . I have seen every movie you made and you were one of a kind .
+thetimahawk1 A truly natural actor, ... like Spencer Tracy and a very few others.
Just watched Out Of The Past !! One of my faves !! Those love scenes with him and Jane Greer , man she was hot and he was lucky !!
thetimahawk1 n;))
thetimahawk1 he seems more like a Rob than a Bob
LEGENDARY BAD ASS, This Man. Don't make 'em, like this anymore. god speed Mr. Mitchum.
Ryan's Daughter was one of his best movies. I still watch it and never tire of it
Absolutely!
Robert Mitchum also had a huge country hit record in 1958 off of Thunder Road. I remember it being on the country music radio station which my mother liked about every hour when it was Number ONE! And Mitchum sings very well on it. I just listened to it here on TH-cam to refresh my memory. Type "Thunder Road Robert Mitchum" to here him sing.
Calypso is like so ! Is one of great albums of the 50s 😊
Amazing how booming his voice was even in the last throes of lung cancer.
He could talk until the end. My father could not. He also had lung cancer. In the end he could not even swallow.
So unfortunate that at this his final interview, the questions being asked him cannot be heard. He is definitely one of my very favorite.
Brace67 We only uploaded his boom mike channel... we shot this interview for our Lifetime Intimate Portrait biography of his and our dear friend Janet Leigh... here's a link to it:

Thank you so much for posting these interview with the Hollywood Greats. These interviews are very inciteful. RobertMitchum was such a genuine down to earth man. The stars from his era seem far mor genuine han those today. Perhaps that is why they remained on top for decades. Such a fantastic actor. He was fantastic in the late 80's in the epic series War and Remembrance. Still top of his game all those decades on. A true star and a Gentleman. Thank you for sharing these interview with him
This brings back fond memories from my childhood. My Dad worked part time as a Bartender in Maryland during the early 60"s and would bring Robert Mitchum to our home on several occasions. He lived at that time on Belmont Farm in Maryland. He was a Super nice person. Also, my daughter's Godmother's Aunt, Dorothy Spence married Robert Mitchum.
And thanks for watching! Sorry it's so raw- and that we only uploaded the boom mic on Mitch... he really didn't want to be interviewed- only consented as a favor to Janet for her Intimate Portrait... :)
It was painfully obvious that he didn't want to be interviewed.
Man that guy's got some serious pipes. He could blow out my speakers if if he said "boom".
Thanks for watching! The audio improves after the gardeners stop working- Mitch refused to ask them to stop! :) Also, we're sorry for the low audio level... we were worried about digital overmodulation (the awful "crunch")... and we only uploaded Mitch's Sennheiser ME-80 boom mike, and not Carole's mike. We'll try to re-upload the interview soon, with the levels boosted a bit... it's a bit of a crap shoot with TH-cam- the levels in the Avid are bang on, but it seems that you have to boost them up 3dB over nominal!
Warmest Regards,

Yes, That Voice ! Love the narration, He did for " Tombstone".... Most especially the epilog. " ... Tom Mix wept." Indeed !
Yeah, great deep voice, barrel chest, world weary look..
Excellent actor. His voice never changed. God Bless
His voice tells it all. Real testosterone, alpha, strongman.
My mum's & my elderly friend, who has now passed. Met Robert Michim, with her daughter on his boat back in the 60's. God bless June, we had some wonderful laughs when I was younger.
You were the Blonde Bomb in your day! ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Robert says "all the other studios had the lamps ... we just lit the scenes with cigarettes " ( film Noir)...priceless comments. as always.
LOVE Mitchum, carried such a presence on screen. Blew my mind in Cape Fear couldn't take my eyes off him, not many people could hold their own never mind dominate a scene with Gregory Peck like he did in Cape Fear.
Indeed @Joe Spitler, really Mitchum was not intimidated by Peck at all. A super secure man! Mitchum was absolutely terrifying in that movie - he dominated every scene.
Robert Mitchum was so laid back as if he was always wearing his slippers.
Hello- Thanks for watching and your kind comment- as always!
When we first arrived to shoot his interview, I walked up to him and offered my hand to shake, and said, "It's an honor to meet you." He replied, "Oh, I bet you say that to all the girls." AHAHAHA!
The audio quality improves around halfway into Part 3 or so after the gardeners stop working- Mitch refused to ask them to hold up until we were done... "That's their job, dear." he talks about Marilyn and working with her husband Jim Dougherty at Lockheed during the war, and wanting to punch Otto Preminger in the face when they were making "River of No Return"... :)
A Real personality and a true Star . A man that made acting seem easy he was just that good. He never let ego out pace his talent.
Magnificent actor! RIP Mr Mitchum! Bravo! 🙏🙏
You're right - her voice melts like butter in your ears - very pure sound.
Here after watching Eldorado. The elegance in his figure character is always the most radiant over any other actor. At least for me. He just stands out as such a positively bright and wise individual. Hope he's resting in peace.
El Dorado. One of my favourite Mitchum movies along with The Big Steal, Night of The Hunter, Villa Rides, and Farewell my Lovely,
Great, great actor. One of the real 'he-man' actors of a day looooong gone. Imagine going out for a night of drinking with him, Lawrence Tierney, Oliver Reed, and Lee Marvin? You'd come home with a billion dollars worth of stories..and probably a couple of black eyes. Loved these guys.
+Scott Q Thanks very much for tuning in and taking time to write such a kind comment! We really appreciate it.
Luke Sacher (shooter of this interview)
+soapbxprod Thanks man..I loved Mitchum. 'Night of the Hunter' scared the hell out of me when I was a kid. Mitchum was a monster in that.
I read Oliver Reed's autobiography years ago. In it, he relates a great Mitchum story. Oliver had gone drinking with Mitchum during a film shoot (can't recall the film), and was lambasted the next morning by the director. The director was basically berating Reed (who was a younger actor then with no 'pull') for apparently making it too easy for RM to go out and get smashed..which he frequently did. Unbeknownst to the director, RM had walked up behind him and had heard everything, and took great offense to this. He proceeded to confront the director, who wanted NO PART of dealing with RM, and told him off. The director sheepishly took RM's scolding and backed down, and didn't bother either of them after that.
I also heard/read that Mitchum was one of those actors who could always nail his scene. He could be hungover as hell and still 1/2 sloshed and he'd still nail it. The guy was a pro, and an iconic actor. One of the best of all time for sure.
+Scott Q AHAHA! Fantastic! Oliver Reed dropped dead in Freddy's Bar in Brooklyn... I lived very close to it and saw many great bands there in the late 1990s and early 2000s, including "Les Sans Culottes", the NYC French parody band... speaking of Mitch- when we arrived at his house to shoot the interview, I walked up to him and said, "It's a great honor to meet you." He replied, "Oh, I bet you say that to all the girls." And cracked that trademark smirk! AHAHA! What a GUY!
@@sjames304 That would have been The Big Sleep in 1977.
@@soapbxprod I guess he liked using that line. I remember him saying it to Derek Malcolm at the end of the Guardian lecture. This was after he come out of The Betty Ford Clinic or whatever it was and lost some weight.
Love Robert Mitchum. always mans MAN
+lindapriorirish8 A role model to me since I was a tyke- THANKS!
When I arrived at his house, I walked up to him and offered my hand and said, "It's an honor to meet you, sir." He replied: "Oh, I bet you say that to all the girls..." and smiled that Cheshire Cat smile of his...
***** Thanks for sharing.. I will be laughing about your story, for awhile.. I intend to Share it with My family... Thanks again...
Thanks a lot for posting this interview! Mitch was my hero, even as a little boy, He introduced me to Marilyn Monroe in "River Of No Return" which I saw at the age of 10 in 1957. Mitch died on June 30, 1997, almost 80 years old after a life full of adventures and many really good films. He'll live for ever!
Wow - what a gem. Loved him in Night of the Hunter and Cape Fear. Excelled at playing driven characters.
De Niro used both those roles as inspiration when he did his own version of Max Cady
Sounds exactly the type of witty comeback that I have heard him say in other interviews. He always seemed like a big star without the big ego too.
Geez! He was such a great actor. This is like a year before he died and he seems so worn out. He's 78 of course.
Oh, yeah! Big time! It's amazing he lived this long. He had a lot of issues that he never dealt with in his lifetime. That probably made him a great actor. All of them were messed up actors: Henry Fonda, Spencer Tracy, Monty Clift,....
Hey, my guy is 84 and looks 59. Not a teetotaler - but never ate cigs like so many of the great actors did...Mitchum, Bogart, John Wayne, Robert Ryan, Aldo Ray (huge boozer too) Lee Marvin....the list goes on and on. What a loss.
I became a fan of Robert Mitchum around 1993 when the BBC screened some of his films late at night 'Mitchum at Midnight' they called the series. I watched all his films on television after that. He is my favourite cinema actor of all time.
What a great actor he was. I wish we had as good of actors today.
+Bruce Clements Thanks for watching! Well there are a few good ones today I think... Michael Keaton, Liev Schreiber?
Allen Green. Are you kidding?
Allen Green. Are you kidding?
Allen Green.Grow up kid! Get a life if you can.
You act like one!
Still smart as a whip right here. Bless him.
newdomtanner Thanks for tuning in and leaving a comment- the audio improves at the end of the second or start of the third part, after the gardeners stop working- he wouldn't tell them to stop- "That's their job, dear", he
says on camera. Cool guy to the end- he was still smoking Pall Mall
unfiltered reds when we shot this- he was obviously very sick by then.
Deep voice for an old guy. Thanks.
+Terry Tanktop And thank YOU for tuning in!
+Terry Tanktop And thank YOU for tuning in, boss. Much appreciated.
Especially for an old
guy dying at the time
of lung cancer AND
emphysema! Notice
the spasmodic, labored
breathing, and his
wasted appearance.
Living proof of what
smoking can do for
you, and proof positive that intelligent and caring
people can be brought down by addictions as easily
as the stupid and reckless. This is sad
to witness, as I liked
his work and persona and would
like to have hung out
with a well-spoken, honest, creative, upper-crust
dude like this.(This
is a response to
Terry Tank top's remark: "Deep voice
for an old guy....")
Terry Tanktop has
NTerry Tanktop ....what do only young guys have deep voices? Hardly. Young guys sound like girls. Robert is known for his baritone voice.
Thank you for posting it.
He sure was a nice guy- just hated to be interviewed! He only consented to it because it was for Janet's biography. Thanks for watching, and great comment- we appreciate it. :)
yes, you can see WHY he hated it too
all i can say is your very lucky to have met him, wish i could
"We're talking about Film Noir... "Out Of The Past"...all the big productions had all the lamps so we just lit the sets with cigarettes..." Sharp as a tack. Mitchum was just untouchable, effortlessly cool-as-f*ck and nailing it right to the end. A class act.
thank you for the technical information, I'm afraid its over my head but I appreciate your reply !!
Loved him in El Dorado with John Wayne and James Caan
+john Magill Thanks for watching- how about Ryan's Daughter? Also, Heaven knows, Mr Allison, and The Sundowners with his favorite leading lady, Deborah Kerr... :)
Mitchum and Wayne together in a movie, that's too much man for one screen to handle.
I'll throw in a Mitchum film that never gets a mention and it's quite good-the forerunner to Dallas, Knot's Landing, Dynasty and all the rest. It's called Home From The Hill (1960). He plays a wealthy tycoon who's trying to instill some manhood into his son, played by George Hamilton, while harboring a rather shaky local reputation and a few skeletons in the closet. See it.
@@julianmarsh1378 Mitch was on a role at that time. Look up everything from Night Of The Hunter on. Incredible streak of great films.
“Home from the Hill” is my favorite Mitchum movie, thanks for mentioning. Mitchum is terrific, and rest of cast is also solid-even George Hamilton!
nothing can describe men like the wonderful Mitchum we will never see their likes again
Such a great actor . Tough and cool and loved his movies
Sorry! Long story... Mitch refused to ask the gardeners to stop working. And we only uploaded his mic channel to TH-cam- not ours. But thanks for tuning in!
His 1955 film "The Night of the Hunter" was a brilliant performance. Also the later one he did in the 1970's about the Japanese underworld " The Yakuza" was also a great film imo.
Also Dick Richards' "Farewell, My Lovely"... Raymond Chandler story... :) Farewell, My Lovely (1975) Sub Spa
Cheers for the info.
Mitch talks about making "River of No Return" with Marilyn and Otto Preminger later in the interview- part 4 maybe? He also talks about working at Lockheed with her and her first husband Jim Dougherty.
My pleasure. It's a super flick.
th-cam.com/video/s7tfQVsxC3Y/w-d-xo.html
Dear soapbxprod: Thank you! I only wish the questions would be easier to hear. To really follow the interview one has to constantly change the volume (drastically) between the questions and Mitch's answers. Otherwise - as I said before - a very welcome interview with Mitch, about one year before his death. I have about 90 percent of his films in my dvd collection. Not all of them are first class, but many are.
What a legend. Excellent actor especially when he played as Brigadier-General Norman Cota in "The Longest Day" (1960) and Commander/Captain/Admiral Victor "Pug" Henry in "The Winds of War" (1983) and "War and Remembrance" (1988). Even in old age he had his iconic voice. Shame he's no longer here 😪
He was far too old for those roles.
My dad, who passed years ago, was a lifelong firefighter in Everett, Massachusetts. When they were filming the 1973 film "The Friends of Eddie Coyle", his fire department, among other local area fire departments, and others, were recruited to be extras at the Boston Garden, where some scenes for the movie were filmed. At the end of the day's shooting, "Bob" invited the extras to join him at a local bar. My dad said that Bob was a what we used to call a "man's man." As tough and rugged as he would often appear on screen, he was also generous and appreciative of the job the extras provided and treated them exactly like equals, even buying them drinks. I watched the movie, looking for those scenes filmed at the Garden with hope of recognizing my dad in the background, but they are short cuts, too fleeting, and too far back to recognize anyone. But I think it was cool that my dad went out drinking with Robert Mitchum.
Hi soapbxprod: Thank you for explaining this to me. I understand. The interview (or Mitchum's answers alone) are still a valuable addition for any Mitcum fan. I'm less interested in the Janet Leigh bio. I know she played opposite Mitchum in "Holiday Affair", but this film is really among the forgettable films of Mitchum, in my opinion. But Mrs. Leigh starred in a good number of high class films, too. I just mention "Psycho".
LOL! Yeah- Death sucks Donkeys! -Wayne and Garth
Thanks for your hilarious comment and for watching- warmly appreciated. :)
I knew there was a logical reason......Robert Mitchum has been in my top 5 favorite actors since I was a kid....sorry, didn't mean to sound angry. Thank you so much for posting.....love the interview!!!!
Oh NO! Of course not! Thank YOU for watching! I promise that I will re-upload the interview... If you can bear with me for a few days... just so swamped with work...
Warmest Regards to You and Yours-
Luke Sacher
Great actor with many years of great movies.
+Edward Anthony Thanks for tuning in and taking time to leave a kind word- we shot this interview for our 1996 biography of our dear friend Janet Leigh- Mitch only consented to the interview for her... how's THAT for CLASS? :) Here's a link to the finished show:

Luke Sacher (shooter of this interview)
Yeah, he was definitely a great one.
+Edward Anthony Farewell, My Lovely... as great as Chinatown... :)
th-cam.com/video/mpIftdXefsE/w-d-xo.html
I love his "crap" movies (film noir). he was one of my all time favorite actors. Love how he seemed to respect the actresses he worked with like Hepburn. he was a class act.
So talented, old hollywood, in true form. an icon.....
One of the top five movie tough guys ever.
+Tim mcCaffrey Thanks a lot for tuning in.
Luke Sacher (shooter of this interview)
I will take a not so
wild guess as to who
the other four top
tough guys are on
your list, and probably everyone
else's: BOGART; CAGNEY; E.G.ROBINSON, & GEORGE RAFT. (With
"honorable mention"
going to ROBERT RYAN; JACK PALANCE; LEE VAN
CLEEF; & last but not
least, my favorite, the
unheralded LEO GORDON!)
That's a great selection of tough guys you've listed here and I'm really surprised to see the great Leo Gordon's name mentioned. He must one of the most familiar faces from dozens of movies and T..V. shows but not many people could put a name to that granite face of his. If I remember correctly he was shot in the stomach while robbing a petrol station and he spent three or four years in Alcatraz, so he was the real deal. Come to think of it, I'd add Charles Bronson, Lee Marvin, Victor McLaglen and William Smith to the list as well....you'll never see guys like these again.
You wouldn’t pick a fight with Bob Mitchum, he started out as a bouncer in a rough pub and won lots of dosh as a prizefighter !
Thank YOU! I LOVE all your videos! Really, sometimes I don't have words how kind you are to share all these treasures with us!! Germans, hm, Marlene Dietrich, Diane Kruger. Some are half German like Sandra Bullock and Leonardo DiCaprio. All the good looking ones, you know. lol. ;-) Oh, not to forget Roland Emmerich and Hans Zimmer.
I love Robert Mitchim he had just that voice no matter which film he was in a great actor 🌹🌹🌹
How about that line where he says ...
"I never watch my own movies. They don't pay ya to watch' them".
my dad said Mitcham was a tough guy.hard as nails. top actor
+neil williams Thanks for tuning in- did your dad work in the movie biz during the Studio Era? If so, Wowow! :)
+neil williams And a helluva warm guy too, when he knew that you were a straight shooter and on the level. Thanks for watching our interview, and sorry for the poor audio!
Thank you
Oh you are most welcome- and thank you for tuning in!
Luke Sacher (shooter of this interview)
Great actor, great guy.
I, too, wish I could hear the interviewer better but I love Robert Mitchum and love to hear anything he has to say. What an actor! Just finished watching him in "Thunder Road" on TCM earlier and it left me wanting to see more of him. I think I'll start re-watching "Winds of War" again. Then follow it up by re-watching "War and Remembrance."
Dear Melanie,
Thanks, and we're sorry for the low audio levels- if you look below, you will find multiple explanations as to why... we only uploaded Mitch's mike, and not Carole's, since we were only using his direct answers in our 1996 Lifetime TV biography of my "auntie" Janet Leigh... here is a link to the complete program:

there will never be another robert mitchum
l still enjoy his movies,and l miss him
What is there to write about? He was a kind, gentle man, who loved his wife and was faithful. He did smoke much too much and had emphesema for last 5 years of his life. I met his brother Jim who was trying to take singing lessons in L.A. He loved his brother. His Mom was from Norway and that is why he was "slo" eyed. Kept away from women as much as possible. Wonderful down to earth man. That is why you liked him. He did have some fist fights.
What a great GREAT actor. Just got through watching "The Enemy Below". The only enemy is us all having to grow old. Wish he was still with us.
good movie
Thanks for uploading - really enjoying the interview with the late, great, Bob Mitchum but is it possible to add subtitles for the interviewers questions as many of us are hard of hearing and the volume, even at maximum, is inaudible. Thanks again!
That's a super picture- think he was nominated for it? I love him with Deborah Kerr in The Sundowners... :) Thanks for watching, sorry about the lousy audio!
He made a movie here in Australia and he was a gun shearer of sheep in the movie was really good movie.
Can we please get these kind of actors back, true men, nothing fancy, they drank and smoke, but never regretted it, just a way of living. Humble, tough, made out of iron. They punched you up if they were in a bad mood, but class acts.
LOVE Mitchum. His best film? "Heaven Knows, Mr. Allison." It was about a Marine who gets marooned on an island with a pretty woman... a nun. One of the greatest WWII films ever made. A captivating,, perfect film... see it.
Thanks for tuning in and commenting! I think that he mentions in the interview that Deborah Kerr was his favorite leading lady. She was nommed for Best Actress for "Mr. Allison". They were magical in The Sundowners together too.
*****
Really? I heard a story from my uncle who was the technical advisor and friend of the producer on "Allison" (he was a Marine who fought on those bloody South Pacific islands) that you might like. Apparently, Mitchum was a little reluctant to work with Kerr because he thought she as a little too "prissy and proper" to handle him. But one day during shooting, she fell into the water and began "cussing like a sailor!" From that moment on, "he fell in love with her," and they remained friends for the rest of their lives.
I concur as well. It's the one I always think of when I'm in the mood for a Mitchum movie. He and Ms Kerr work in a few films and were good friends off-screen. The fact that it was just two actors with dialogue makes it more appealing. No place to hide.
tiffsaver
Hello- thanks a LOT for that great story- totally made my morning. Your uncle must have been some hell of a guy! :) Here's her third picture- very gritty and realistic for its time (1941)- have you ever seen it? (UK Matinee) Love on the Dole - Deborah Kerr, Clifford Evans 1941
NYVoice
Mitchum always belittled his work as an actor- "I just kept putting on the trench coat and changing leading ladies." "RKO figured there was so much baloney they had to sell, and I was it."
Thunder road was made by him. great car chases.
Thank you so much for your kindness- he truly was the Last Gary Cooper, huh?
Did you ever see Thunder Road with Keely Smith? I LOVE her SO much!
You gotta see "Thunder Road" with Keely Smith if you haven't... thanks for watching, we appreciate it.
He must be talking about Holiday Affair in the beginning of this clip ..He was in that with Janet Leigh..love these old interviews
+Nancy Foster Yes, indeed- and thanks again for tuning in! We shot this interview for our 1996 Intimate Portrait of Janet, who was a dear friend. Mitch only consented to the interview because it was for her. :)
Here's a link to the finished program:

Loved, Holiday Affair!
and again what a voice
Thank you for the movie star interviews. It is nice to see them. :-) I do have one suggestion though, could you maybe add some subtitles for the lady who is asking the questions? I can barely hear her and my volume is all the way up. Thank you again for the interviews. :-)
Hello Adele- sorry about the low audio levels, this was one of our first uploads to TH-cam and we only uploaded Mitch's mike channel. We'll try to find time to re-upload the interview with both audio channels some time soon.
Best wishes,
Carole Langer (interviewer) and Luke Sacher (videographer)
LMAO! Poor Curt Jurgens... a formidable opponent. :) Thanks for watching and your terrific comment!
I love seeing Robert Mitchum. I can't say that I enjoy either the poor quality of the audio, nor the (in my opinion), poor quality of the interviewer's questions. Nonetheless, thank you for posting this.
We didn't upload Carole's mic channel, just Mitch's- Promise to re-upload as soon as I can get around to it... the audio improves in Part 3 or so, after the gardeners stop working. Mitch refused to ask them to stop... "It's their job, dear!" he said to Carole... Also- he only agreed to be interviewed as a favor to Janet Leigh. We were making her Intimate Portrait for Lifetime TV. Warmest Regards, Luke Sacher Praeses & Soapbox Productions Inc.
Thunder Road is one of my favorite movies. Great man and actor.
The sound in this video is crazy! Great voice.
Still had that voice and personality
RIP ROBERT MITCHUM xxx
@eotto2001 I appreciated the interview and that you posted it. I had to work around the sound but it was nice to hear him. You put up the Roddy McDowall interview and the home movies he did at Malibu. I was floored by them. They were like regular people -- beautiful regular people -- having a day on the beach. Natalie Wood was beautiful in everyday life, too. I don't register people as icons but I know they were all very famous and talented.
Whadda awesome voice!! He could've been a radio commentator or voice-overs for animated characters and such. I miss his fine acting. He has no equal!
mega man and actor imo loved his film,s since a boy long ago thank,s soapbxprod
Thank you, Colin- so kind of you and glad that you enjoyed the interview. :)
Mf50
Winters lives in an SB suburb of Monticeto....a few miles east of Santa Barbara. I hear he is quite apprachable. Could be your next interview.Now THAT would be fun! The weather is nice this time of year..............:)
Awesome voice. What is really cool is, he was in the original Cape Fear and the remake 29 years later.
I remember "Thunder Road very well. I still have it. I first saw it when I was first learning to drive. It was NOT a good influence, but I loved it and every film he ever made, including "Night of the Hunter". "Hing hand hung,, se what the robber done..." And "Leaning, leaning, on the everlasting arms."
Will always love Robert mitchum thunder Rose unbelievable
The Best of the 'Best' that was!~
The Enemy Below...that's all I'll say!
+John Lott With Kurt Jurgens! The BEST!
winds of war.
