- A new web documentary 'In Search of a Legend', Mark Reed talks frankly and exclusively to Rob Crouch, actor and co-writer of new play, Oliver Reed: Wild Thing, about his father Oliver Reed. Part 3 of 3 parts. Made by Fourth Flight Films.
What a wonderful son. Your Dad should feel so proud of you and how you remembered your Dad with truth and love.
What an Amazing life to have had !
Oliver lived - he was so damn good looking and broody - he did not just exist .
Delighted he found that " field " for the horse and stayed in England with real people !
An Extremely talented Actor and also a Great Dad as his son is so together .
Sorely missed . RIP from Ireland
I'd imagine Mr Reed would be very proud of his son for putting this together. Not only that, but for new generations to come to see his true persona. Fascinating fella 🤩
He was not only talented but one of the most gorgeous men who ever lived in his day!!
I absolutely loved Oliver Reed. His son Mark has paid a lovely tribute to his dad.
I will always have a great respect for your father, as a human being, a person and an actor.Rest in peace Oliver Reed! Much respect. Amen 🙏
Mark is a credit to his great Dad. Oliver was a phenomenonally talented actor, well-spoken and always convincing in his roles. Thank you, Mark, for your kindness to us and for showing your Dad's human side.
The greatest Bond villain there never was. Brilliant man. The latent energy you could see emanating from him was awesome.
Now that would have been interesting. Give the man the outline idea, warn the crew, roll the cameras and let's let this thing off the chain, and bask in the danger of it all.
But I have a feeling we would need to agree a safe word. 🇬🇧🎥
Mark just looks like his dad, softly spoken as well. He must have been very proud of him.
The World needs more Oliver Reeds
Great man & you are truly missed 😢 how I would have loved to have met you & have a pint . Rip xxx
Fabulous Oliver Reed - always the coolest person with whom I shared a name. And what a golden age of British film and British film actors too - nobody could describe the current crop of screen 'icons' as “larger than life” or even charismatic.
Great man, no one like him nowadays 🤩
That was brilliant.So amazing to hear real insights by Mark into his father’s life and work. An important record of a great actor.
a natural actor..a hard drinker (not for modern women) but a kind heart....what one would cal.. "A MAN'S MAN"
An honest rogue I met Ollie years ago by chance in North cork, he was a genuinely nice guy there was a hidden genius I felt in talking with him that he didn't reveal to the world, the world is a lesser place, rest well
Many would disagree with you Sir.
Many agree with you 👍
@@young321bookie not too many tbh....
@@young321bookie why do you say that? just curious as I am absorbing the history about him on a daily basis.
And some are neutral while appreciating some of his films. One should just admire the art of an artist. They are just human. Nothing more, nothing less.
Wonderful man, wonderful actor.
The most enigmatic, charismatic, contraversal, electrifying actor of his generation,....he smouldered and energized on screen,...performing with honesty and respect for the varied and towering roles he portrayed.....great actors are born,....great characters are born,....Mr Reed was chiseled out of Ice....floating in a large brandy.....legend
Oliver Reed was in the first movie I ever saw at a cinema, Oliver! This film began my love and respect for England and Dickens and talented English actors. I loved him in the 3 musketeers and gladiator - May he rest in peace.
great tribute by son , many thx
Loved him as an actor and character, so authentic, so unique. He should have been a Bond, and in many other big films... some big names don’t come close to him, he was a genuine legend in my opinion. Under appreciated by the movie makers, he was better than Harris and others.
I spent a good few hours up the local King's Head pub in Rudgwick. I can confirm that Oliver was in fact a really nice man and very intelligent.
I have nothing negative to say about Oliver. Even the local policeman, John Slater, would be there to drive Oliver home in his Panther De Ville from the pub. John told me it made a nice change from cycling on my police bike. Oliver called my mates and I his Banditos. The darts matches were good fun.
As a child, my father used to look after the Burge's garden in Rudgwick. I remember I was very young, perhaps 6 or 7, and I would play with Josephine Burge, who was around the same age, in their garden while my father was working. That was until the tragedy that struck her father. I still remember when my father got a call from someone in Jo's family to let my father know.
what a nice story, but it's sad to hear about Josephine's dad
Oliver Reed was my pash back in my youth. He was handsome beautifully spoken and a lovely actor. Came over as loyal and switched on when interviewed.
Pity television preferred to fill him with alcohol and make him look foolish.
His son should be very proud of him ❤
wow his son looks so much like him..! Speaks like his father too..
Forget the hellraiser stuff for a minute = Reed was a proper film star with one of the great great voices and massive on screen charisma. In his early days he was also incredibly cool and good looking - check out the System, the jokers and Hannibal Brooks. He was the 60s in excelis
..a MAN...of substance, conscience, compassion but also a MAN that does THE job....with a hard drink at the end..simples
Was oliver reed a legend or an icon.....he was both....britains finest...what you saw was what you got...
Both.....xxxx
Fascinating three parts.
Oliver was a stud back then.as a kid he scared the geepies out of me as bill in the musical Oliver.excellent actor,professional at work,kind and generous with looks that made hearts flutter
Mark seems like such a lovely chap.
Wonderful, Oliver Reed,
And His Son
Agin Wonderful human beings The Reed,s Are,
Mark looks so much like Oliver when he smiles. He looks like him most when he smiles.
All ways rembered his son is clearly a fine young man part of ollies legacy
A very good tribute to his dad whom I'm sure he would be very proud.
Oliver seemed such a fun guy, I'd have very much liked to have met him but sadly he was before my time slightly. He even reminds me of my eldest brother Joe. I have six brothers and four sisters btw. Anyway they looked similar and had the same capacity to drink that much. Like Oliver, Joe died through his love of a pint, only in his case it was via a brawl.
He had it, today I honestly don't see any movie stars that have it. I suspect in the theater you'd find many that have it!!!!
It is a shame what alcohol can do to someone. No doubt he would have reached the heights of playing James Bond. He had the presence. He may also have got another 30 years. Nevertheless it was his life and if that's the path he chose..Good on his son for appaently turning out so well.
Lee Marvin was a great actor and man and marine.
A true star ,,,,,they don’t make them like that anymore ,,,RIP
....THEE classic tearaway THEY want now....
You are so right! Mark appears to be very charming.
I loved this man
One of the best vids I have seen on TH-cam. Thank you.
I've got a tshirt with OR & Keith as shown in this with their arms round each other & beers in hand.
The best Ollie imo was when he was not drinking. As his son said, it was very bad the way he was put on these shows to cause a stir & get him passed prior to interviews.
Good to see his legacy is a fine chap.
O.R. is my favorite actor and I loved watching all three parts of this! Mark Reed is a thoughtful and graceful son; so fascinating to hear him talk of growing up with his dad and some of his family experiences. So nice to not have to listen to the sensationalized stuff about O.R. and instead learn about other sides of his personality. I would love to see the play by Rob Crouch- does anyone know if it's on dvd by chance? I found another nice tribute to O.R. by Simon Drake called "The Trouble With Ollie." It's also in three parts, check out part one at th-cam.com/users/results?search_query=the+trouble+with+ollie+part+1 The links to parts 2 & 3 should be in the sidebar or just type in the title in the search box. Thankyou THANKYOU for posting "Oliver Reed: In Search of a Legend"!
Excellent!
Oliver reed son looks like him a good actor was Ollie reed rest in peace
I'm proud he's buried in Ireland,love him xx
i know why he's there, but there isn't any reason for him to be that makes sense.
"You haven't had a good beer if you haven't had a good hang over" Haha. This sounds like something his son probably overhead him say at some point 🤣
See Ollie and Keith like a Tartan special beer top class
He came off very well in The Word, that absolute plonker Terry Christian, Ollie said to him "Well i HEARD you were heterosexual" and gave Terry the up and down look, hilarious, the audience loved him. The audience loved him on After Dark too, yes the producers are merciless but Ollie came out on top as far as audience engagement, and who gives a toss about the people that CHOOSE to be offended ;+}
Great historical film, beautiful insight. thankyou
His greatest film for me. Was Triple Echo. Brilliant work.
Loved the documentary, very honest.
Drinking the sherbies and shafting the girlies is my fave quote.
🤣🤣🤣
A man's a man for a that
Anyone that has seen Reed speak without a drink in him would the the man to be thoughtful, gentle…. Full of fun with a mischievous heart.
That’s what I saw anyway.
Great actor and what a character!
Wish I could meet his son
Wow Ollie bought himself a hell of a property!! That’s a type of place you only see in movies. He must of had such amazing parties there.
who owns that property now? like right this minute 06/20/2021 ?
@@dabneyoffermein595 yes good question I would love to know this as well...
It's divided into flats now I believe. You can see in the credits here they thank "the residents of Broome hall"
good son mark reed. laura.
An actor playing a famous actor- how tedious and unoriginal- just from the few interviews and documentaries I have watched of him here on youtube I would guess Reed, of all people, would not approve of a play about himself....just a guess.
A little cruel? The hidden camera in the dressing room while under the influence, and then laughing about it, was demonic!
💯agree
enjoyed that, well done.
looks like Freddy Mercury astounding in Gladiator..would break your heart..which leaps at the unexpected sight on him in it...
Where's are his interviews please post more of his interviews same ones always on youtube, is their an interview after the filming of oliver.
Brilliant. ..
Wish I could have seen his kinder side.🤔
It was wrong what they did to him, inviting him on those chat shows, they used him, he had such potential!
I remember watching Oliver Reed on After Dark at the time and it was uncomfortable viewing. They set him up for a fall and it was disgraceful to do that.
Had the privilege of recording and visiting his resting place.
Imagine him as Bond?
Wo ist seine Familie und seine junge Frau sein Grab sieht mehr als traurig aus
and who the heck were Reed's parents??? and those handsome brothers?? same parents??
Intelligent like his father
WHO WAS HIS MOTHER? an actress?
I think of name was Kate Braryn a model.
It's quite fitting for olly to be buried in what's called the rebel county in Ireland called cork a fitting tribute to a true rebel the birthplace of Michael Collins Ireland's greatest hero
Oliver Reed was made of pure granet and lightening bolts from heave .a legend of a man
Lee Marvin, Hurricane Higgins, Keith Moon. No offense, but it seems that his best friends needed to able to drink 20 pints a day.
Oliver chose to appear on the Word and After Dark. He went on pissed again, ready for a fight and out of control. He most likely took the cash and didin't give a rats ass for what anyone thought including his kids and family. He lived life his way and went out the way he would have wanted too.
Blinding
His son also has a bit of The Hitch about him!
'Give him an enema and he could be buried in a matchbox'
Dude, look at the person you’re interviewing. Looks fucking weird otherwise.
Maybe Mark can go and clean his dads headstone occasionally,instead of just making money from his Dads name.
It sucks to be the son of someone like Mr. Reed. He has my sympathy.
