    This man is a treasure. Many years ago, he was sitting next to us in a restaurant when we recognized him and we did not want to disturb him. After a little while, I motioned to my camera to ask his permission for a picture. Not only did he agree, he posed for us with his wife Kelly Preston and their new baby. I told him we loved his movies and he thanked us, all the while maintaining eye contact. He recognized we felt special to meet him and he made sure we enjoyed it.

    Given his stature as an artist, it’s refreshing how transparent and humble he seems. John seems almost shy like he really doesn’t even want to talk about himself too much. In the land of egomaniacs that is so rare and I think it does come from himHaving parents who were older who he had to be patient with and nurturing with and also his association with old Hollywood stars who younger stars probably dismissed. John was a pretty smart guy to tap into their knowledge base.

    This interview is 20 years old. Travolta has a huge body of work since then. A favorite is Gotti. As a True Crime junkie, I've read and watched much about Gotti and Travolta nailed it right down to his last minutes on his deathbed. The movie was criticized a lot because it wasn't some other movie like Godfather, or Goodfellas, or Casino (which was nothing like the true story in the book). But even then, they said Travolta was excellent. But the movie really was good, very good.

    A wonderful human being, a remarkable actor, 100% unique, authentic, and unsurpassed in star quality. You can clearly see John Travolta was deeply loved by his parents growing up. They instilled in him a priceless gift that, if you're lucky enough to receive it from day one, will last you a lifetime - Self esteem.
    That gift has helped protect him through the harsh rejections and unrelenting scrutiny of an actor's life. And no doubt it has kept him afloat through the many personal tragedies he has suffered over the years - many more than one person should.
    God bless you John, and thank you for all you have given the world through your fantastic work and your inspiring personality. This interview from 2003 is a real gem, but watching it knowing he was to lose his wife and son, is so very sad.

    I agree with everyone else ! Also a very intelligent guy. I admire his skills..... A dramatic actor with a great sense of humor, sings and dances. Drives a plane better than a car !! Just seems to lack fear. Quite humble as well. I'm sure he's awefully grateful for the life he has been given.

      same.. they used to nearly all be on youtube about like.. 10-15 years ago (the early/dark ages of TH-cam), but they started getting removed, and I think that the channel (Bravo?) was very strict about keeping them down. Maybe since James Lipton has passed they'll be a little more relaxed and hopefully allow people to upload them again!

    John Travolta's strength lies in his proof he is the real deal. This isn't just talk, not reverse engineering his resume. He did all that when he was cold as ice. His flamboyant style, his gratitude and his unwavering trust in himself and the world, the focus on the positive as an antidote against all the negativity, they are all conscious decisions he made to keep himself sane, happy and productive. I bet there were moments his ego took over, but overall, his ego took the back seat and that is the most impressive about this man! He is the real deal. Generous, courageous, hard working, responsible, collaborative and genuine. These are some accolades which are all real, none hyperbolic. Quite extraordinary! a lot to learn from this man!

    Watch the documentary, Mr. Saturday Night. About Robert Stigwood. A lot of great stuff about the making of Saturday Night Fever. And it was John who felt that he deserved an Academy Award nomination for SNF, and wanted one. And made sure he got one. It was his doing.
