Ed Norton is probably the most underappreciated underrated actors ever . He should have won numerous academy awards.
Totally
Completely agree!!
He's not underrated nor underappreciated.
Such a dumb ass take. He is by no metric underrated haha. Dude has been an A-lister for for nearly 30 years has been NOMINATED 3 times for Oscars won golden globe and SAG awards. Save for Daniel Day-Lewis nobody really wins two let alone MULTIPLE Oscar’s. Not being historically great is not an indictment on his talent or appreciation. T
He's on MY top list.
We were classmates/friends in high school. Great guy and very very bright. I don’t believe anyone saw at that time the level of success he eventually unleashed on the acting world. His role in American History X is uniquely one of the best performances I’ve seen.
Amen.
Wilde Lake?
Do you have any story that you can share?...
Are you close to him now?
Best movie…everyone should see it once
Primal Fear
Refreshing to listen to someone so articulate. He is simply on a different level intellectually than most other actors/celebrities.
Seems to be.
Well back then lot of them were similar actually. Because acting is a real art and profession. Nowadays they cast based on body etc, the movies themselves are not made where acting can shine at all. It is not in focus anymore...sadly
Sad to think of this guy as somehow intellectually superior in any way, shape or form. When the C students look like A+ you know you are in trouble.

@@maguffintop2596 When people are judged by their scores in a school system as degenerate as ours is, we know there's something a little off kilter. The questions might be coming a thousand years late, but at least they're coming.
Edward is the most underrated actor ever. He deserves so many more awards than he ever got.
Underrated? His net worth is 380 million dollars and he makes 10 million dollars per movie ... And just look up his list of awards and nominations. It is quite impressive.
I gave him several awards to make up for the ones you owed him.
Always amusing to see people rip off the top comment by only slightly rewording it a year after the original was posted.... It's amazing what scrubs will do for absolutely meaningless likes. Maybe one day you'll actually have an original thought of your own... then again that's probably a longshot anyways.
That uNdErRaTeD actor literally got an Oscar nomination on his first film. LMFAO He's one of the most respected actors of all time.
The word underrated is one of the most self explanatory words in the English language and yet Gen Z couldn't use the word properly if their life depended on it.
I couldn't agree more.
One of the greatest performances of all time - Edward Norton in PRIMAL FEAR. Incredible.
Still cant believe that was his first acting gig!!
100%
Freaky ending
Absolutely.....NEVER bettered
I still get blown away by his performance in that. He's impressive in just about everything. Norton is at the acting top of his generation. Imho.
Mr. Edward Norton is such a class act and a true gentleman. When you see Dave reading out all his movies and accomplishments, just look at Norton's reaction. He was feeling so proud and humble at the same time. He's always been one of my favorites.
How old is this Norton on Letterman Show? Letterman has been off TV for years. Your comment is listed at 12 hours ago.
Help. I'm confused on the dates.
@@obrewsky i'm too😅
No he's not. I live in Jersey City :) (1:33)
Yeah, I agree. I, like many, have watched Fight Club I just don't know how many times, my favorite of his. But he really gets to act alot as the lead also in American History X. Amazing movie, seen that too a number of times. I would recommend 25th Hour also. As far as being humble. He seems that he is. But when Dave was checking off some of his career highlights, I think Edward was thinking more along the lines of "have you seen any of my movies(?), and would you care to comment?!". But nope, nothing. Dave overall, seemed dismissive of Edward and at the very least just tolerant, and I think mocking when he said you're a regular Rich Little. If anyone didn't catch that, then you haven't watched enough of Letterman. I honestly thought Letterman was overall indifferent to edward. I. on the other hand, appreciate him a great deal, and have, since he started way back when..I think he's excellent.
@@obrewsky Dave Letterman and his business partner(s)[I'm assuming of the original show and agent(s)] recently started a TH-cam channel for the fans to bring the best episodes from the past for the fans, old and new. So just enjoy and keep it respectful. Thanks.
Edward Nortons role in Primal Fear is one of the best performances I’ve ever seen. Truly underrated. He’s class.
Completely fooled me with the ending of that one. He was excellent.
I agree
Truly legendary.
At 83 years of age, I have had many favorite actors and actresses. But I'm here to tell you that. Edward Norton is my very, very favorite. He is excellent
We need more films with Norton, great actor
Glass Onion: Knives out he is in. I know that's not what you meant, but it's good😉
He is phenomenal is all his movies - in the Keaton film Birdman he was amazing. He takes over a scene like a more flamboyant Sean Penn.
Great Actors talents being wasted past decade when Hollywood went all-in on Woke Agenda. Hollywood just makes Remakes Last 20 yrs now - 70s 80s 90s favorites get rebooted. But Mostly it’s animated CGI Comic book genre churn.
Where’d all the great writer’s go?
yes plz more Ed Norton movies.
Das ist unglaublich!!!
Really like Ed Norton, and would watch his movies many times. He is one of most talented and brilliant actors.
@jess...I agree 100%
deniros protege
@@jamesbenchimol1537 deNiro doesn't have that much range, in my opinion.
Do not call him Ed! He hates it!
@@mariaroldan4200 ， OK, thank you. nice to know. Actually when talking about his way of acting different characters in movies very well with friends, I do say Edward Norton. :)
Wow. This is one of the greatest talk show interviews I’ve ever seen. Edward Norton is so quick and smart. Dave, of course, is a complete genius. He knows exactly when to lay back and exactly when to inch forward. This is gold star entertainment that was thrilling to watch.
Definitely one of the greatest interviews ever! I've always admired Edward Norton, as a performer and as a human.
Genius? Letterman? Ummmm... no.
Check out Michael Parkinson, guy was a genius interviewer.
Graham Norton's show is pretty good. Look him up.
@@howardsternisbatman I think he's a bit hit and miss. Gets some big stars on there, definetely funnier than the American late night guys but it's more informal/entertainment than say Parkinson.
Ed Norton is one of the best actors. He gets into character with such ease and believability. After I saw him in Primal Fear, I was sold. I flipped out at the end of the movie. He is so convincing. I try to watch all his movies because he is such a superb actor. He has such range, convincingly playing either a good guy or a bad guy. One of the greatest actors.
Primal fear greatest twist since six sense
@@Dubriginalyeah, no.
PF-1996; 6th Sense-1998.
Ed, is that you?
He was great as brad pitt.
The trick is to get 100 TVs and watch ALL his movies at the same time!
Edward Norton is one of top ten best actors in the world. Unbelievably talented.
Ed Norton is one of my very top favorites. His acting skill is second to none of all times, in my very opinion. Some actors got great roles that made them stars but Ed Norton makes every of his role memorable. He brings his characters to another level and even in an ensemble cast his character outshines others.
For a moment he actually transformed into Robert DeNiro. His facial expressions were spot on.
Not a single film with him disappointed, and that's a legacy! Brilliant guy, such a likeable personality.
What's farther? Chicago or by train???
Just really intense and great actor, very conscience of his acting! he writes, directs, he's totally believable in every role, great! Ed Norton definitely up there with the best of them for sure! no bs!
With enough classes he might reach the knees of Hugh Laurie!
One of the Greatest
@@thenativeson5071 ....just months before the....

I rate Edward Norton with James Stewart and he was one of the greats.
Ed Norton just reeked of self confidence in that interview. Both him and Gary Oldman are two of the biggest underrated actors in Hollywood.
I know right
Exactly what I was thinking. Casey Affleck has this charisma,also.
Both he and Gary^
Sorry, Norton isn't even in the same class with Oldman.
Agreed
Edward Norton is one of my all time favourite actors. I just love his very special demeanour along with the film roles that he tends to fit so well into.
Norton barely changed his face and voice and instantly *became* Robert DeNiro. Wow!
That subtle Deniro was top shelf.
I mean you would wanna see a little more than that.
uh no not at all
@@charlesnye1736 - Yes
Deep Fake lol
Since Primal Fear, American History X, etc, I watch every Ed Norton film. He is outstanding.
I am Jack's total agreement.
Edward Norton is one of my favourite actors of all times, he's so realistic in his acting roles and sympathic.
I loved Edward Norton in The Painted Veil. A brilliant twisted love story. I instantly became a fan of his.
Everyone always talks about his big, showy roles like Primal Fear, American History X, and Fight Club. And deservedly so. He was brilliant in those.
But what convinced me that he was top 5 of his generation were the smaller roles, the subtler ones, like The People vs Larry Flynt, Kingdom of Heaven, and The Painted Veil.
The Painted Veil ........... fabulous. My favorite Norton.
It's not only amazingly weird to hear Dave say the titles "Fight Club" and "Keeping The Faith" back to back, it is also a testimony of Norton's versatile talents.
Fight club was amazing. Loved it!
American history x definitely should have landed him the Oscar.
Chilling portrayal
Ditto!
I thought so too.
We 👍🏟️❤🏟️🏟️ minion milk
1 million percent agree. The change from white boy nerd to hard-core Aerian could not have been portrayed any better. Ethan Suplee was brilliant too,,from Randy in my name is Earl to evil racist,,,no type casting here
DeNiro impression was perfect
Edward Norton is the most underrated actor. And seems like a really decent bloke to boot. Primal Fear and American History X are two of the most brilliant movies I've seen, and it was his character in both that blew me away.
He Surely handled being a "Punk' Well....!!!
I love Ed Norton acts, just give him any role , he can do it amazingly.
He is one of the underrated actors of all time. Very talented!
They literally said he was Oscar nominated in his first film Primal Fear. I don't know how that's underrated.
Underrated actors of all time? Have you been living under a rock? For just about his entire, long, career I don't think I've heard his name mentioned without it being accompanied by heaps of praise for his acting talent.
Every time I read something like this I think 🙄
@@jonasandezekiel1109 think bro
@@akhrormuminov7180 all the time.
I have admired him for his talent in every movie he has been in. A great actor.
🎉😢
Mr. Norton gives fantastic interviews.
Really good story teller with some impersonations mixed in for some extra zest.
I know a fellow who is a private pilot in Kenya. He flew Ed Norton and said he was a great guy. Very friendly and unpretentious. That character comes through 100% here.
And equally a great actor.
I interviewed him a month ago, and he was very friendly and funny. Such a gifted actor and storyteller.
@@trumanupchurch4407 You can look forward to a book about Milos Forman later in 2023 (as you might know, Edward Norton starred in Forman’s “The People vs. Larry Flynt” and later directed him in “Keeping the Faith”). You do not know me, but I have worked as a journalist and film critic in Denmark for years, also covering Cannes for Danish television, so, yes, I did. You can check out my latest book, “Beyond Television”, for which I interviewed TV creators/showrunners/directors such as David Chase, David Simon, Nic Pizzolatto, Mary Harron, Peter Gould, Tom Fontana, Lesli Linka Glatter, Jay Duplass, Beau Willimon, Derek Cianfrance, Jesse Armstrong and Sam Levinson.

Thanks.
Wish I'd read this and cut to the bits--could have skipped all the uhs and y'knows, and repetitions, y'know, repetitions.
I was looking for this :D Thank you!
14 minutes saved. Tyvm.
wish this were pinned
Ed Norton is my favorite actor. I love his voice. Very gifted man.
Great interview. I did not realize Edward Norton was such a fantastic talk show guest. He brought his A game to Letterman.
Don't know why I started thinking he wasn't a great guest because this reminded me that i loved him even on Fallon
I agree
He speaks in such a soft, gentle, relaxed, and yet masculine manner. Soo engaging and endearing.
I remember reading Primal Fear, and thinking it was the best book I’d read in ages. Not long after, the movie came out. It was excellent, and my first time seeing Edward Norton. I hoped he’d get more good roles because he was so good.
He’s been in a lot of movies since, and they were all good.
Ed Norton, imo, is a fantastic actor.
If his character killed a rabbi in primal fear, Norton probably wouldn't have worked much at all after.
Along with a few other notable actors, when any movie comes out with this dude in it, it's a 'must see', regardless of what the movie is about.
Have you seen his adult film horse's in the wild or something like that...I heard he played his role giving an takin it like a champ.....
Sam Rockwell too!
He is such an amazing actor! He made me laugh uncontrollably with his guest appearance at Modern Family, and he made me cry several times.
Edward Norton is such an excellent actor!!!
I’ve always thought that Edward Norton should have won the 1997 best supporting actor Oscar for “Primal Fear”, instead of Cuba Gooding Jr., who won it for “Jerry Maguire”. It was his first movie, but I remember thinking what a phenomenal actor he was right from the start.
the Oscars are political. it has nothing to do with acting.
The Illusionist, is a great movie, Ed Norton ,Jessica Beil, Paul Giamatti,
What year was this
Cuba is black.
I thought he should've gotten something for Moonrise Kingdom. He played a totally different character for him and looked like he had a lot of fun playing him.
Hollywood needs to remember what a real actor is like him. Skilllz
How such a great actor like Ed Norton can be underappreciated ? Any movie with him is great and he 's also , One of best in my opinion .
An extraordinary talent on top of being a intelligent, funny and authentic down to earth human being. Something you don’t see much with actors.
He’s a rare gem.
Easily one of the best actors out there,terrific personality as well
Loved Edward Nortons work, he is a really good actor. I wish him continued luck in the future.
Well he just starred in Glass Onion. Sequel to Knives Out. He did an amazing job.
I think that's one of the best interviews I've seen in a long time and it looks like David really enjoyed it. He's an interviewer's dream because he puts the interviewer at ease and makes him laugh.
I honestly think Dave usually hogs the conversation and seems to have a huge ego. Not as much in this conversation, but based on most "interviews" of his I've seen. Interviews in quotes because it often seems less like an interview, and more like the Dave Letterman performance with some other guy or girl there.
@@emilejanse2672 Agree, never have been able to stand Letterman. Only watching this for Ed Norton even though it's from July 2001.
Ed Norton is amazing and totally not given enough attention in this business he is incredible
Spent a few minutes with him in a doctor's office waiting room...real chill dude.
Spot on seem lije a good guy primeal fear rocks or was it ha ha end scene
After visiting those apartments.
The Painted Veil was a wonderful movie with a great cast, but Ed Norton made you feel everything.
Edward Norton is great. He should be in more movies.
Ed Norton is a brilliant actor. I love watching his films. His performances are the best ever. He is in a class of his own. ♥️
Given what a genuinely nice guy he seems to be, it's amazing how good he is at playing jerks!
One of the best in his field. He hit it out of the park in Primal Fear and from then on I had to watch everything he does. Never disappointed.
Me too.
Same, if Ed Norton is in it, I’ll see it. What a treat.
@@debbiepowers4743 do you mean “is in it?”
@@donrood7282 yes, thanks.
Great comment !!!
Love Edward Norton, think he's a very talented actor who deserves more credit.
From the first time I saw Ed Norton in a movie, a long time ago, I have been in awe of his talent
That was terrific. I know he has a reputation for being difficult, but he is very entertaining and interesting.
His mimicking of De Niro is just unbelievable. What a legend.
He absolutely reeks of intelligence and awareness… One an incredibly gifted and switched on individual🙏
Edward is such a nice, kind and intelligent guy and one of the best actors ever!
Great actor, very sad no one would work with him… or was there another reason he stopped doing movies?
When he was roasting Bruce Willis, all he did was talk about himself, he seemed self-centered.
Ed quite clear to me, is a genuinely nice man.
Norton is not known for being a nice guy. Anything but.
@@timthompson8297 I’ve heard that, though it’s not in evidence here.
@@timthompson8297 and we must believe everything we hear/read, and continue to spread these undeniable truths far and wide.🙄😑
I love this guy. I love the way they cast him to split personaties! He's done it at least 3 movies. When he co starred with Richard Gear that was the best one. Truly talented.
Ed Norton is one of my favorite actors. He was especially good in " The Illusionist. "Primal Fear" may be his best work. Looking forward to seeing great things from this extremely talented young man.
Was this comment actually 10 months ago? Edward is 54 years old, lol. This interview has to be 20 years old.
Great interview. Notice how Dave allowed Edward to share his stories...without interruption?
Ahem Howard Stern
Ahem Jimmy Fallon
Based on this interview, I would love to have every dinner conversation include Edward Norton.
He is the onley actor who comes to talkshows with a natural state of mind .
The Score is one of my favorite movies of all times! Norton is brilliant is it 👏 Absolutely
He is an amazing actor. A generational talent. I hear he is difficult to work with but always worth it. I wish he would act more.
he's difficult because he's not one of the actors you pay and he comes in says his lines and leaves. He will be very intimate with the script to make his character better and he even does rewrites of the scripts. and hollywood just likes people that come say the lines and leave. I think thats the difference why he has so many classic movies with stunning performances.
He probably carefully chooses roles
@@marcelladillard3556he was just in a Netflix murder mystery lmao I don’t think that was hand picked
@@Giuseppe326 Everyone needs to pay the bills...:/
@@Giuseppe326 It was in theaters first...
Superb talent, Ed Norton always brings it.
Ed Norton in Primal Fear was mind blowing!!! Deserves the academy award for sure!
Ed Norton is amazing in Primal Fear, with Richard Gere as his defense attorney. 🖖👽🤖😎🤓🧐
He is one fantastic actor. Cute & funny too.
One of the top 5 actors in Hollywood Ed Norton
This guy brought my all time favourite super hero to life the incredible hulk and to this day it is the best MCU movie ever. Fight Club is a prime example of how versatile he is as an actor.
Loved him in the Hulk. So sad they didn't do the next one ...
One of the most brilliant actors ever.
Really a great actor. His role and acting in the red dragon was amazing 👍
Just finished watching Red Dragon and you are correct he's brilliant in it .
My two brothers and I took my parents to the Producers on Broadway right around this time and as with Mr. Norton's show, Nathan Lane called in sick and we saw the understudy, who was indeed excellent. But it was a crushing blow to my mother, who was a Broadway aficionado and was so excited to see Mr. Lane in person.
I was always amazed at how jacked he got for american history x. by far his best role.
He's a brilliant actor. One of my favorites. Great imitations.
Every time I see a movie featuring Ed Norton I watch it; he always makes his characters believable.
👍🏾👍🏾👍🏾
And interesting.
A great actor deserves more awards .
He was very very convincing in that film with Richard Gere...OMG still gives me shivers!!! Scary!! Didn't know it was his first...
What a guy - love Edward Norton, never new he was such a good impressionist too!
I love Edward Norton he is a Great Actor! Love his choice of movies he really gives his all.
I loved him in The painted veil ,the music the location ,the way it was shot was wonderful !!!!!😁🇬🇧
A brilliant and underrated film that was extremely touching and smart. Stunning cinematography and some great twists too. One of the all time GREATEST ROMANTIC storylines!
@@earthangel8730 you know you have summed the film up beautifully, my dad brought it for my birthday year ago,yes you are right it is under estimated, but you know I think people like you and I and others know the quality of the film and for me it's one of my treasured dvds !!!!!!😁🇬🇧
That this actor could ever feel "less than". He is an incredible talent, one of the best actors ever.
Edward Norton is fantastic in everything he does. David Letterman is so unbelievable at keeping itvall hilarious. GOAT of late night!
I fell in love with Edward Norton ever since I watched him in "PRIMAL FEAR" he should of already won academy awards by now, he has been over looked. Adore and love this man
He's one of the best his performance in Primal Fear is iconic 👏
100 per cent I think he was maybe 27 .The role and it was a great role he played along side Richard Gere.
What a nice guy, and a great actor. Continued good luck to him. He deserves it.
The movie Score is one of the most underrated masterpieces of Hollywood.
What a super guy, I wish this clip was an hour long. Top shelf in my book.
9:17 is when The Score with Robert De Niro and Marlon Brando is brought up
It's actually a great movie . It's on free movie sites all the time .
You're the hero we don't deserve.
Thank you soooo much !
@savannah :] you’re the real MVP👊🏾
thank you!
I absolutely LOVE Edward Norton!!!! He is my all-time favorite actor ever since Primal Fear. ❤️❤️❤️
Primal Fear really was the most amazing movie I ever experienced in the way I experienced that one. It stayed with me for a very long time.
Edward Norton’s performance in that film was so impressive. I remain in Awe of Mr. Norton
Ed Norton was unstoppable for awhile there, all those great films Letterman mentioned are within like 5 years of each other. I know sequels are frowned upon, but I'm a bit curious where his and Matt Damon's characters would be 25-30 years later, wow, Rounders is approaching 30.
Rounders. Such a phenomenal movie and all of the cast was incredible.
I liked it too. But I I thought Malkovich was trying too hard to be Russian. Would have been cool to have a real Russian in the role.
Ed's one of the greatest living actors easily. A master of his craft.
I'm from the Philippines 🇵🇭 and even at younger years of my life before (I knew he's not that old) we with my family watched him,,his movies. I cannot forget his role in American History X and a lot more. Such a brilliant actor !! We love him❤️
Fantastic interview, and agree that his performance in Primal Fear was top tier.
It was his first role. He was 19yo.
