@@designanddirection Did you listen to this interview? Are you not utterly appalled? I've been aware of some of these FBI 'stings' down the years and every one of them horrifies me. When something as nasty and corrupt, as what Chris Morris is describing is happening, what do you think is the best way, a film maker should respond to it?
@@chesterwig This is what a lot of the 9/11 truth movement brought up. The FBI have been creating these terrorist attacks for decades. Look at the first world trade centre bombing where the FBI were caught to have created and carried out the entire operation from the making of the terrorists to the making of the bombs and the whole plot all along. Look up Operation Northwoods too where they show they are willing and able to carry out operations like this on their own people.
That was the most sobering, direct, clear-cut analysis on the war on terrorism over the last 18 years I've ever heard on a public news channel. Kudos to Channel 4 for having a 15-minute discussion on the topic, and many kudos to Chris for his deeply insightful analysis.
stephen stewart His entire point, along with the entire plot of his movie, answers that question. The FBI target these pathetic social outcasts, plans out a terrorist attack, psychologically influences them to carry it out, supplies them with all the technical know how and all the supplies, then arrests them as they start to carry it out. It’s the manipulation of previously non-dangerous idiots into carrying out a literal terrorist attack, just so the FBI can look like they’re good at catching terrorists. How do you not have a problem with that?
@stephen stewart They do the same thing here in Australia all the time in order to justify the BS war on terror and the erection of a police state that's true purpose is the targetting of dissidents, as they are fearful of social unrest as the economy is about to completely tank. Dr Haneef, Mambou Habib, David Hicks are just a few scapegoats that come to mind, while Schapelle Colby was set up in order to curry favor with the Indonesians, who were promoting a law an order campaign. They destroy lives everyday here....especially the indigenous. Souless psychopaths rule the world .
You can *still* be a funny and intelligent man.... Honestly, it probably wouldn't be too good for your personal life if you believed you were *the most* funny and intelligent man.
That almost sounds like fun, that is until you hear the story of a Czech teenager on cake who was run over by a tram...he thought he had 3 weeks to cross the road.
Chris Morris has always been my idol, razor sharp, sobering and unflappable as ever, such a massive treat to have his insight into the world to listen to.
I've been a fan of his for 20 odd years now, from On The Hour and the Radio 1 shows. I think everything he's done is on another level to anybody else, The Day Today, Brass Eye, Blue Jam on Radio, especially that.The 10 minute monologues on there are amongst his best ever work,The TV version of Jam is really underrated, it's dark AF and no way would get made now.
It sounds like (probably because he says it.) this film was a shocking wake-up moment for Jon Snow. (He may well have said to himself 'You know nothing, Jon Snow.') He seems to have been oblivious to the nature and scale of the FBI machinations and remains stunned about what the film prompted him to discover.
If you are sat in front of Jon and he isn’t coming at you with hard biting questions, it’s probably because he agrees with you. I’d say the respect between both of them was of the highest level and they probably carried on the chat afterwards. Two very intelligent gentlemen who are masters at their craft..

"I don't really see the point of comedy unless there's something underpinning it. I mean what are you doing? Are you doing some kind of exotic display for the court, to be patted on the head by the court, or are you trying to change something? The problem is that I think we've got used to a kind of satire which essentially placates the court. You do a nice dissection of the way things are in the orthodox elite, and lo and behold, you get slapped in the back by the orthodox elite who say 'jolly good, can you do us another one'. That's not what it is about so in a way these times should bring on something with a bit more clout. It's about the thrust, and it's really about whether the people you're lancing can get off your spike." - Chris Morris Perfectly said about the point of satire and why so many satires fall flat if they just placate or just roast the court.
Chris Morris takes satire too seriously now, though, doesn't he? Utopian thinking like "it can change society" etc. has meant that his work has lost its comedy. His last 2 films weren't anywhere near as funny as his TV series, which sprung from a freer, sillier attitude. He now sounds like an investigative journalist.

Really insightful interview. I am not over stating this. Chris Morris has and is an incredibly powerful voice. For me, satire, breaks down and reveals truth. It is the most effective way of holding the mirror, to reflect back. It can be uncomfortable, but is uniquely, necessary for a sane society.
Morris brought out the best of Peter Cook in the mid 90's during a short-lived but beautiful collaboration; he still seems inspired by Cookian high aspirations, ideas that satire is not just a rough tool of "nice comedy", but something more sharp.
@@lostuser1094 I'm not! (I even liked your comment to show no hard feelings), and I'm not saying that the nineties didn't have plenty of televisual turds being flung into our faces. It most certainly did. Back then we still had to search out good stuff on TV. These days there's nothing to search out.
I get the sense that Chris Morris has enough wit and integrity not to tarnish his legacy by resurrecting past glories that are still fresh and relevant today. Brass Eye was perfect, he has moved on, you can still re-watch it. We don't need another bloated, overworked, tired, middle-aged, embarrassing reboot like Red Dwarf or the Fast Show trading on nothing more than nostalgia.
Watch the interview. He just said that a satirist needs to keep his eye on the ball and he doesn't feel that "the ball" is there (i.e., in satire of the presentation of current affairs) anymore.
This Guy is a british gem, always producing the highest calibre in comedy and political reasoning. So refreshing to have someone so honest and who can portray his point perfectly.
How accurate the saying "many a true word is spoken in jest" is. Chris Morris is a very clear thinker which helps him deliver this sad (or dreadful) reality via his cutting satire. Great guy. Really like him.
Great to see Mr Morris out in the light again :) The Day Today still remains the comedic bible of incisive and insightful satire, what a great piece of work!
Fantastic interview all round: Good, succinct questions from Jon Snow, and fantastic commentary on American politics & its national security from Chris Morris.
The genius of Chris Morris. Never outflanked by the bonkers. "Chris Morris, thank you for joining us." Chris Morris, thank you for existing. You genius, you diamond, you rare and beautiful thing.
Chris Morris, brillant discussion, thank you. Please, Chris, turn your attention to adoption and child social services where the same thing is happening: abusive parents are being missed by the system, loving parents are being targeted, destroyed, and their children taken away. A starting point for the services would be if, for instance, the child is having difficulty in school, struggling with anxiety. The parents are blamed, and abuse charges are manufactured. The services then keep their adoption statistics on target, and look like they are being effective. The occasional child who is murdered by their abusive families looks like they slipped through the net, when the isn't a net.
When I think 'what have we got as a nation?' Chris Morris is one of the people who come to mind. We do have some real talent showing us the ridiculous nature of the world we live in. If it were in a novel you would not believe it.
@@Madyetmellow I guess you haven't watched The Day Shall Come or the Netflix era Black Mirror yet. There's only Armando Iannucci's satire that hasn't become stale

I get the sense that Chris Morris has enough wit and integrity not to tarnish his legacy by resurrecting past glories that are still fresh and relevant today. Brass Eye was perfect, he has moved on, you can still re-watch it. We don't need another bloated, overworked, tired, middle-aged, embarrassing reboot like Red Dwarf or the Fast Show trading on nothing more than nostalgia.
Bring it back? Just look at life today and you'll see that we're living in Brass Eye
Watch the interview. He just said that a satirist needs to keep his eye on the ball and he doesn't feel that "the ball" is there (i.e., in satire of the presentation of current affairs) anymore.
Wouldn't work. In fact not only that....perhaps even his latest won't work. Reality is almost a satire of itself.
a very rare interview indeed when chris isn't trolling the interviewer lol
or is he trolling !?
I'm trying to remember seeing him answering the questions. Snow deffo knows he's up against a master tho. haha
Well if it was Peter O'Hanraha-hanrahan...
@@davedogge2280 lol well theres no answers about a monster taking the form of a giant breast so I think its safe to assume he's serious
Doctors say he may survive, but only with his neck as an internal organ.
This film was made 2 years before the FBI hyped up a plot to kidnap the Governor of Michigan
This Guy is a british gem, always producing the highest calibre in comedy and political reasoning. So refreshing to have someone so honest and who can portray his point perfectly.
That was a great interview - Chris Morris’s mind works so fast.
He really does embarrass Jon Snow and his preconceptions.
My Christ he's sharp. Erudite and on point.
Christ's chin!!
Jesus Hector christ.
How accurate the saying "many a true word is spoken in jest" is. Chris Morris is a very clear thinker which helps him deliver this sad (or dreadful) reality via his cutting satire.
Great guy. Really like him.
Chris is simply pure pragmatism and realism, love it.
Love Morris' laugh when Snow says "It's hard to believe".
Great to see Mr Morris out in the light again :) The Day Today still remains the comedic bible of incisive and insightful satire, what a great piece of work!
Guy is a legend
Fantastic interview all round: Good, succinct questions from Jon Snow, and fantastic commentary on American politics & its national security from Chris Morris.
The genius of Chris Morris. Never outflanked by the bonkers. "Chris Morris, thank you for joining us." Chris Morris, thank you for existing. You genius, you diamond, you rare and beautiful thing.
Sack all journalists who don’t know what COINTELPRO is.
This!
Absolutely!
Yes!
@@jamesfletcher1439 State sanctioned intimidation and murder of left wingers I'm afraid. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/COINTELPRO
I felt so sorry to hear about the passing of Ted Maul, Chris Morris's old colleague. I hope they eventually find his remains.
What happened? Was it a bomb dog?
@@MLB9000 A stairwell nonce bashing.
Ted maul disturbs

@Chris Collins Another casualty of the wipespread cake epidemic
"Those are the headlines. Happy now?!"
"isn't donald trump many steps ahead of you?"
"ahead of ME?! haha"
That bit was hilarious
Haha, amazing. I love Chris Morris
Chris Morris, brillant discussion, thank you. Please, Chris, turn your attention to adoption and child social services where the same thing is happening: abusive parents are being missed by the system, loving parents are being targeted, destroyed, and their children taken away. A starting point for the services would be if, for instance, the child is having difficulty in school, struggling with anxiety. The parents are blamed, and abuse charges are manufactured. The services then keep their adoption statistics on target, and look like they are being effective. The occasional child who is murdered by their abusive families looks like they slipped through the net, when the isn't a net.
He is facting Jon Snow til he farts.
I farted then immediately read this. It's terrifying how almost accurate you are.
😂😂😂😂😂😂
There's truly no escaping Morris's tractor beam of comedy
He's not funny anymore.
He is close to doing a spherical interview.
Making them round
Those are the headlines. God, I wish they weren’t.
This is the NEEEEEWWWWWWS!
You've lost the news, John!!
As the Channel 4 newscaster sprawls on a pin, it's back to you, Peter.
GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOAAAAAAAAAAAAAAALLLLLLLLL
...ich lichte nichte
From telly to belly. Fact me till I fart!
Vote Chris Morris for next Permanent PM! 👍
Next Permanent PM? Isn't that a contradiction? If the PM was permanent there would be no next one.
And he would be a dictator, not a PM
@@pseudonayme7717 being a dictator is about more than just staying in power for a very long time.
I’d love to hear a conversation with him and Adam Curtis
When I think 'what have we got as a nation?' Chris Morris is one of the people who come to mind. We do have some real talent showing us the ridiculous nature of the world we live in. If it were in a novel you would not believe it.
"we have got other versions"
Beautiful.
He got a good chuckle from Chris with that line
wish i could have even a quarter of the intelligence chris morris has. amazing man
Chris Morris is a gift from god, Genius
Him and Charlie Brooker have been the best at satire for years 😉👍
@@Madyetmellow I guess you haven't watched The Day Shall Come or the Netflix era Black Mirror yet. There's only Armando Iannucci's satire that hasn't become stale
Chris Morris is a comedy genius, Brass Eye was absolutely brilliant. He’s an incredibly intelligent articulate man who really knows how the world works.
Respect to Snow for not shouting him down, like everyone else would.
Bona fide genius, the Daniel Day Lewis of satire. Should’ve been massive but everyone’s terrified of him
We need far more of this man on our telly. Don't stay away again please Chris!
A very reassuring presence, is Mr Morris. Look forward to the film.
An absolutely phenomenal film, everyone should definitely watch it.
To Chris Morris: you made my teenage years, and beyond - thank you.
This man is the Salvador Dali of comedy & satire. Narrow minded fools are constantly interrupting his flow. Let him work
Nathan barley is the most underrated sitcom in history. Scarily ahead of its time.
It's Hilarious & Co.
The day the world changed yeah!
Well weapon.
It kind of is
it was so true to the people it was making fun of, You just have to go to parts of London and Brighton and there are thousands of Nathan Barley's everywhere.
This interview is so soothing, full of justly indignation, enthusiasm, brilliance of mind and cleverness, which is much needed these days and which gives me hope. Thank you.
He's back! Morris was probably my first internet search. It's nice to see him again. Take heed, fellow youtubers!
Chris showing off his articulative skills and intelligence. Top man
Chris Morris is a national treasure. A real OG.
