- Celebrate Ryan O'Neal's career today with this very funny conversation about his early years on TV and his co-star from WILD ROVERS, William Holden. Ryan, who died at the age of 82, Dec 8, 2023, after a long battle with cancer, joined producer Rob Word at The Autry Museum for a special look back at his career.
Ryan talked with Rob about growing up in Hollywood, his screenwriting Father, Charles O'Neal (RETURN OF THE BAD MEN), their neighbor Henry Brandon (THE SEARCHERS), early stunt and acting work on Kirk Douglas’ International TV production of TALES OF THE VIKINGS, Mia Farrow’s self-inflicted G.I. JANE haircut during the run of their hit series PEYTON PLACE, Tuesday Weld and getting his screen acting card by working on THE MANY LOVES OF DOBIE GILLIS, reuniting with Ali McGraw his LOVE STORY co-star, and much more.
You won’t believe what William Holden did with his Best Actor Academy Award! Ryan O’Neal recalls his friendship with his Oscar-winning WILD ROVERS co-star and reveals what happened to Holden’s trophy.
Ryan was always exciting to be with. He had his demons but we connected as movie lovers. He was a real film buff and he kept me on my toes. I'm pretty good, too. But when I'd stump him or correct him, he'd punch me in my arm...hard. He was a boxer, too! Ouch. I loved his sense of humor and his contrary attitude. He made several films with Peter Bogdanovich (PAPER MOON, WHAT'S UP, DOC?) that have become classics, starred in Walter Hill's unfairly neglected existential noir, THE DRIVER, and what many believe to be his finest performance as BARRY LYNDON . Sure glad he joined us for this interview on Sept 20, 2016. Condolences to his family, friends and fans. R.I.P.

R.I.P Ryan O Neal🙏. Thank you Bob for sharing.
Thank you Rob for showing this interview. I always liked Ryan O'Neal.
What a fun interview.
Hard to believe he’s gone. ❤
Absolutely another home run. He certainly was a legend..
My family had the pleasure of hosting Ryan and his daughter at a location party back in the late 70s. A charming fellow. I ran into him years later and he remembered the event and was just as charming. A very deft comedian; his performance in "What's Up Doc" has always been under-appreciated.
Really hard to believe. I will always remember Ryan as the young actor in Love Story. He just never aged in my mind. Excellent celebration of Ryan O'Neal's career/life Rob. RIP Ryan ✝🙏✝
Another true Hollywood Legend gone. Great interview Rob. Thank You.
A very sad day.
Rest In Peace, Ryan O'Neal. His fantastic performances will always live on. A wonderful actor.
Brought a tear to my eye… yet another in a sea of tears. And hey, I even a slight shout out at the end. And yes, he was just warming up. We talked like this for years upon years. One lucky son.
So broken by the news of his death, Always one of my favourite actors from back in the 70's. What a charming man and talented too. We your fans will miss you terribly. Rest in peace darling Ryan O'Neil..
I saw this a couple of years ago. Thank you very much for reposting. This is a very special interview. He's with Farrah now. Rest in Peace.
Rip Ryan Patrick Charles O'Neal, you will be missed
❤ your comments moved me greatly
Ditto... until I saw this , back then, I had no idea how witty and intelligent he was.. don't think I ever saw him on the talk show circuit back in his heyday, so it was a pleasant surprise to share his company this way..
I doubt seriously Farrah would want him anywhere near her.
He's not with Farrah. He's somewhere else.
Thanks for all the memories!
My sister was a great admirer of Ryan. She wrote a letter to him. People responsible to answer letters of his fans sent my sister his pictures with autogramme and dedication. God was she happy! Now she is 65 and keeps his pictures on the wall of a living room, nicely framed. She is so proud of them.
Thanks, Rob for sharing ! RIP Ryan O'Neal 🕊️
❤Much due to himself, Holden's life was troubled. Ryan's as well. But their lives were also extraordinary. I hope Ryan's final journey was peaceful.
This was a wonderful interview.
What a genuinely funny and charming man he was. Also a very good Golden Gloves boxer.
Great interview! Totally glued throughout 🙏❤️
Glad you enjoyed it, nic. Thanks
Enjoyed this. The great thing about these actors is that you can always revisit them after they are gone.
Thanks for showing this Rob. Always liked Ryan O'Neal.
Brilliant interview, Rob. Ryan O Neal was such a droll, amusing fella, unlike his screen persona, doesn't take anything too seriously. RIP Ryan.
Very good interview.
Thank you for reposting this Rob as a tribute to Ryan. I did not know he had passed until I saw this post. May he RIP.
Thanks Rob for showing this interview and how Ryan was interwoven into Hollywood Movies and TV.
Never knew he passed. Seemed like a wonderful guy. RIP. Thanks for posting.
Just passed on 12/8/23
Love the interview. I was so sad to hear of Ryan O'Neal's passing.
Thanks for posting again. An underrated screen presence. The critics of the’70s never seemed to get over the fact he was a TV star that audiences embraced as a movie star. “Paper Moon” is one of my cherished movie going experiences as a 12 year old kid. He is existentially fantastic in Walter Hill’s “The Driver” ; very funny, and able to be both goofy and masculine at the same time in “What’s Up Doc?”; and in my humble opinion stars in Kubrick’s greatest achievement “Barry Lyndon”, a film and performance that on first viewing 40 years ago gave me bored bewilderment but now I am stunned at its beauty, subtlety, and O’Neal’s full bodied performance, one of cinema’s true masterworks. And I much mention the great Richard Brooks’s final film, the unjustly despised “Fever Pitch”. Ryan is great in it. And in this day when sports gambling is an ubiquitous presence, this film deserves a revival as a wake up call.
Rest In Peace Ryan O’Neal. And thanks Rob for posting this tribute.
Wasn't that a great film?
Good thoughts. You've prompted me to take another look at "Barry Lyndon."
Barry Lyndon is won of the most beautifully filmed movies of all time.
RIP Ryan O’Neil, another wonderful actor gone.
Thanks Rob 👍
I became a fan of Ryan O'Neal from his appearances on "Bones." Then I watched several of his movies, including "Golden Boy." I am sorry to hear about his passing as really enjoyed some of his movies and television appearances. Great interview, Rob, and Ryan is so appealing! 👍👍 I would like to see the "Vikings" television series. 😊😅😂
Paper Moon is one of my favorite movies.
RIP Mr. Ryan ......Godspeed.
I may have posted this comment the first time this video aired. My daughter collects Breyer's horses, one of which is Gene Autry's horse Champion, complete with the pistols on his bit. Like Ryan O'Neal, my Dad talked about western stars coming to the local theaters across the country when he was a kid growing up in the 1930s and 40s. He remembered meeting Don "Red" Barry when he was playing Red Ryder. Now they are all gone. RIP, Ryan.
Thank you Rob. I feel in love with Ryan during Story when I was a child
Great, Rob. Ryan is alway hilarious and had an encyclopedic knowledge of the industry. I really liked him in Barry Lyndon. He was a very good actor, and of course, the camera loved him. Impossibly handsome man. RIP
Nicely done! Thanks for sharing! He had a great career!
Thanks for watching, foxy.
Thank you for conducting this interview with Ryan O'Neal I enjoyed it every much. It was full of entertaining information. God bless
Rob, Please NEVER stop making these episodes!! I'm 65 and I LOVE the actors and actresses you bring on your show from my childhood! I share your show with all my friends!!!
Thanks, tom. I sure appreciate your sharing our shows.
Good interview and Actor rest in peace
Your most entertaining interview Rob. Ryan was a fabulous actor could do it all comedy drama action. No other actor was as cool as him after Walter Hill's The Driver.
Too many R.I.P.'s coming too fast now in our Golden Years. Great interview, Rob. That Naples thing... Neighbor of mine and his wife were taking Scuba Diving lessons, when they heard about the group of stars looking for the drowned Oscar. Man what a story his wife had about that month. She was all up in the clouds about Ryan O'Neal. 👍👍 5⭐
So many great actors passing away.
Hi Rob, thank you for another job well done. Always a fan of Ryan O'Neal. Sorry he's gone, but a lot of great memories of him in movies like What's Up Doc, A Bridge Too Far as General Gavin and The Thief Who Came To Dinner.
Terrific.......
Say what you want about Ryan (and God knows two of his four kids have 😑) … but he was so handsome, so entertaining, and so hysterical. In every interview he crack’s jokes. RIP ❤
Class interview.
Wow, Ryan should have written a book about his experiences. What a repository of Hollywood history now gone. A million thanks to Rob and his efforts to retain it via the westerns and so much more.
Sad news. He was one of your better guests. Great very dry sense of humor. May he rest in peace.
I remember some of this, from the original broadcast. He was involved in many productions and was a very solid actor. This interview showed another side of him, the bit of a contrarian with a quick self deprecating wit. I probably like many did not know he had passed until this episode showed up. It was a good conversation.
Well done as always! Thank you for putting this interview up again! Andy McKane, Maunaloa, Molokai.
Very good looking and talented 👌 👏 ❤ RIP Ryan O'Neal ❤ 🙏 🕊
It’s good to see the other side of someone. Ryan has such humor.
Rob, what a terrific interview! Ryan is one of your best interviews ever! Thanks for sharing again!💫
Will that was special. I had no idea he did so much tv and movie work. You know his baby face make him to look so much younger than he was. rip
Ryan O'Neal had boyish good looks.
R.I.P. Ryan O'Neal thank you for the years you spent giving millions of us film and TV viewers hours of pleasure. You were great in the TV series Peyton Place, in the film Love Story and my favorite of your films Barry Lyndon - a much underrated classic.
I 'm so sorry I offered my condolences to the family, in my opinion he was a great actor.🙏
Nice tribute Rob 👍
Enjoyed, Rob
A great actor, Ryan O Neal, will be missed greatly. RIP
Very cool Rob
“Wild Rovers” was SUCH a cool film! It seems kind of forgotten today. Or maybe I’m just not paying attention. Anyway, thanks for running this again, Rob. I always liked his Bogdanovitch films, and I remember my mom being a “Peyton Place “ nut. I avoided stuff like that. -MJ
Great segment rob & RIP to him, i found the movie he did with william holden on TH-cam so I'll give it a run soon.
Oh, one more thing! I had a very long discussion with Henry Brandon many years ago at a Sons of the Desert convention. He was truly surprised that I knew so much about him and his career. It was many years before that Google thing came into our lives.
Weird, I just looked up his name on Wikipedia last night to see how old he was. R.I.P.
Rob, I got to know RYAN O'NEAL quite well as he guested on TV's BONES, as I was assigned to be his driver...
As those who met him know well, and all those that thanks to you Rob know very well, Ryan was a very big HOLLYWOOD film buff... we had many conversations on that topic. He was back on the 20th Century-Fox lot which he knew well from his PEYTON PLACE TV days, and BONES was shot on one of those old stages.
Driving back and forth from the studio to Ryan's home on PCH out by Malibu, I'd play a CD in the car that I put together, an audio compilation of music and dialogue from his movies and that always got his attention. Ryan had his health and family problems, but was always such a pleasure to be with, and one of the most easy going, down-to-earth movie stars I ever met!
R.I.P. Ryan... I may be wrong, but I think this was your biggest star interview Rob, very memorable and a fitting epitaph don't you think?
Thanks, graham. I've never seen him interviewed anywhere talking about his early days and having such fun remembering them. Glad you, too, got a chance to hang with him. I'll bet he enjoyed your company.
Ryan loved talking with anyone who REALLY knew about HOLLYWOOD and movies, it was the one subject that always cheered him up and made him forget his troubles.@@AWordonWesterns
Shocker. Not very old. Just watched the movie with Mr. Holden on TH-cam 3 days ago. RIP Ryan and condolences to family and friends. As always Thank You Rob 👍🇺🇸
I haven't thought about Ryan O'Neal for years mainly because not many of his films are shown on TV. The day before he died i was watching the film "Fatal Attraction" with Anne Archer and decided to browse her film history and found out that she made a film with Ryan O'Neal called Green Ice, and i watched a short clip of it on TH-cam and then the next day it was announced that Ryan had died,
A Hollywood golden boy in the best sense was Ryan. Loved his films. He is well remembered. Thanks for having him on your show Rob.
Goodnight sweet prince. May flights of angels sing thee to thy rest.
Wish the interview went on longer…He was a great talent!
One of Mr O'Neal's later, maybe lesser known films I liked a lot and highly recommend is "Zero Effect" with Bill Pullman. Was made into a short lived TV series, but they picked the wrong guy to play the title character. There's still a chance there for a team with a little more imagination and the right cast I think.
Growing up watching 👀 ryans movies,he seemed too bring so much too everything hes in,and just watching his interview here,i can tell he really had such a passion for his craft.i really enjoyed this interview. Thank u,he was such a true movie star.
Thanks, dana. He was very talented. I'm working on a memorial tribute to post in a couple of weeks.
Rip ❤ Ryan O Neal
Ryan's Peyton Place co-star Christopher Connelly played Moses on the TV version of Paper Moon (which lasted one season).
Jodie Foster played the daughter on the TV version.
@@GeminiladyJackson-xq6hc Jodie Foster did make a successful transition from child-actor to adult actor. Tatum O'Neal didn't.(Chuckle!)
Im so saddened to hear this, he was a good actor. I never quite got over him losing his wife in Love Story.
Love means never having to say you're sorry.🌹
Very Nice
Thanks
R.I.P. Ryan O'Neal you will be missed
RIP
Ryan O'Neal is such a great storyteller and very charming. I wish that there was more footage of him talking.
You can find interviews with Ryan, online. He was an excellent guest, and had an amazing knowledge of TV and Film history.
Rest in peace Ryan ❤️
He’s phenomenal as an actor
That is sad to hear, he was a good actor and will be missed.
I’m in shock as a fan rip Ryan oneal
My favorite Ryan films are Paper Moon, and Barry Lyndon.
They're leaving us quickly. All the more reason for your efforts Rob.
Rip Ryan.
Ryan never lost his boyish looks.
I’ve only seen a few of his movies, but if I had to pick a favorite, it would have to be “The Driver” (1978), he is just so good in it along with Bruce Dern. A shame no one’s ever brought that movie up during interviews with him
A great movie few remember sadly.
❤❤❤
I am too well versed in Mr. O'Neal's dark personal side to celebrate his life.
He was a good actor but a terrible human being.
this is very cool
I’m really bummed out that 3/4 of Ryan’s children weren’t invited to pay their respects to their father. Griffin made the long trip in his car all the way from Texas. I think this was a Healing effort that was needed. I guess I am just really blown away how much Patrick continues to call this guy, a shrine of a hero, but his other children should have been allowed to attend. I respect Ryan as a legendary movie actor but his son Patrick is going over the top with idolizing him. As I get older, I can take a bit of his side and their side and come out with the real story in the middle. I really pray that Ryan’s 30 million estate is being handled fairly. Tatum is still in memory care facility from her stroke due to her overdose a few years ago. Then there’s Redmond he will need that money for his long term mental health care. Farrah was so worried about leaving her son behind.
Hope his money IS distributed fairly. I was shocked when i saw only Patrick attended the funeral.Where were the others ?
Throughout his entire career, it's always been very interesting to me how he always fluffed right over his association to Barbra Streisand with whom he not only bedded, but did two movies with. I supposed it was an agreement between the two of them. In her book, she calls him a (a very fun) "fling" and says she was "too serious" for him. Interestingly, their romance was over by the time they started shooting What's Up Doc?
Rest in peace, Ryan.
I never saw his death posted anything 😢
great interview, but weirdly o'neal's eyes died awhile before he did.
Wow, Ryan O'Neal was an amazing actor. No second rate star. Mr. Word seemed genuinely displeased by Ryan in this interview.
On the contrary, Bill. I had a blast. It was always edge of your seat fun with Ryan. He is missed already.
@@AWordonWesterns thanks for responding. I'm glad you enjoyed R.O. There at the end it seemed like you were pushing off stage but I guess you guys were just having fun. Real men like you and Ryan know you can joke around without offending. I'm not woke so it was nice to see old school banter. Love your show. How can I see a show live?
Whenever I see Ryan O'Neal, all I can think of is how he destroyed all his children.
Guy was a real abuser. Beat wife and kids and even gave his young kids drugs. No loss here
He didn’t have a funeral….?
Yes I have Heard that Ryan Died from....????? Some kind of Cancer??? Well Hopefully He is in Heaven with Farrah and the Rest of His Family??? RIP Ryan 😭😭??? The Only thing You Really Did was Love Story!!!!. Really!!??!
Great actor but a pretty scummy person
I met him at a bar in Vail in the 80s . Or maybe it was Aspen . Seemed like a good guy . R.I.P. Ryan
RIP
