  • Jeremy Irons has created quite the reputation as a Hollywood villain. But tonight, in a feature interview with Carole MacNeil, you'll see a different side of Irons - especially when he explains why he came to Canada this weekend to help a Catholic nun in Toronto.

    How can he be so perfect in soul, mind and body? Is he a kind of angel or what?

    He's so wise. I listen to him to learn how to speak every now and then.

    I love the fact he gave serious answer to a silly quesiton like 'ARE YOU EVIL?' instead of looking 'wtf are you talking about?'

    Irons is a genuinely deep thinking, philosophical and wise man.
    He is right, we all have good and bad within us. Extremes and small amounts. It just depends which one we display.
    That's been the way for thousands of years.

    Not only is he a great actor but he is a clever man as well. He has a heart. Too many of the paparazzi and press glorify celebrities who are poor role models. This man is an excellent role model in his work ethic and in his values he holds dear. Bless him!

    I love his philosophy and I completely agree with his ideal way of looking at things, superb! I, too, wished America would've handled that situation much better than they did...

    What an intelligent and wise person. I love his way of thinking in respect to the 9/11 tragedy. It's true; violent retaliation is the wrong way to go about things if you want to create a better world for everyone.

    your so right! What he says is all true and it´s so clear to see what he means.I think we all once thought that way ..but most of us do not know how to put it in words...or even to do it..we always loose in this situations when we feel more anger than appreciation for the whole situation...
    kind of sad...

    God Bless Mr. Jeremy Irons, you reminds of the famous Jesuit philosopher. Karl Rahner, who stated, "... for the ones with great difficulty and no clear evidence of success plot away at the task of awakening in just a few men, a small spark of faith, of hope and of charity." A.M.D.G.

  • @elisenelson5736
    @elisenelson5736 3 ปีที่แล้ว

    Seriously though, I think he's right. Realizing that we all have the potential to be "evil". It's like looking back at people in history and thinking, "oh well of course I would never do that" and thinking you would have been different and better. But of course you don't really know, do you? You might've acted differently, but you might not have. I just think it's important for us all to realize we have the potential to be malevolent and then guard against it.
    Anyway, Jeremy Irons is the best.

    @VIA919 - Jeremy Irons wasn't in Die Hard; that was Alan Rickman, who plays Snape in the Harry Potter movies. But I can see why you mixed them up. They are pretty similar in terms of looks and deep voices. :)

    He and Alan Rickman sound so freaking similar! Of Severus were to be in the Harry Potter series again, Jeremy's the guy.

    Very wise advice -- and from a actor too! No wonder he does not fit the Hollywood mold. He's too clever by half.

  • @HORSEZOX
    @HORSEZOX 13 ปีที่แล้ว

    @Zacofonix meh, i personaly think alan rickman was perfect for him, even J.K rowling saw A.R as Snape, but i can certainly see why you would think he'd make a good snape. they both have perfect voice.

  • @sean151291
    @sean151291 15 ปีที่แล้ว

    ok ok im pretty sure this could go on for a while because we both believe we are right or rather our opinion is the right one. so i know when someone is not going to be swayed. i respect your opinion on irons statement but i truly do believe that we have the possibility to become murderers etc it is simply whether or not we choose to make that change
    (also could you please tell me where i negated myself this is not me trying to score points i am just curious as i was pretty sure i didnt thnx)

    Jeremy Irons was at his best in the not so well known.. BBC drama - The Dream. It's a short story by Dostoyevsky that sums up the hidden agenda of the Bible. The agenda of tearing down this existing system and building a better world. To view it - Google - Part 1 - The Dream of the Ridiculous Man - It's on available on utube in 5 parts. There a several versions.. but only the BBC version features Jeremy Irons..
