When it comes to Shawshank, Morgan Freeman & Tim Robbins always get the limelight but let's not forget just how good Clancy Brown & Bob Gunton were in this film!! They were unbelievable!!!
Great movie. Great actors but...Brown is looking older than Morgan Freeman...haha
Fitness/ diet are key
The Sisters were my favourite
Warden Norton is easily one of the most underrated movie villains ever and played brilliantly by Bob Gunton. No big fancy Marvel suits and weapons and yadda yadda yadda. Just your classic narcissistic, evil, stone cold, sociopathic mental terrorist who has every aspect of the prisoners' lives by the balls. And it's always the irony that the people that play the most messed up characters are those you'd trust to leave your kids with over some of your blood relatives.
What about Brooks? Honestly, they got pretty much every character right. Hell, they even casted the part of the bird right.
Best Shawshank scene was him giving evil Boggs the beat down of his life. So satisfying.
I liked that scene too.
I enjoyed the rooftop scene: "Do you trust your wife?"
@@themersh4064 Yes, the rooftop scene is my favorite
That was a good one. I knew as soon as the hat came off that Boggs was about to get that a$$ kicked, and I enjoyed every second of it.
"Give him another month to think about it" will never be topped.
The roof scene, tarring the roof and the beer haggle, that was the most memorable scene of the film for me.
Clancy Brown nailed it.
Thank you, Sir.
I agree!
Drink up while it's cold, ladies.
YES It Is!!! Just about feeling free...
Lawyers, bunch of ball washin' bass-turds
My favourite scene too
His portrayal of the Kurgan in the Highlander movie still gives me shivers. Concentrated evil.
Thank you for all you do for us Clancy.
That's the first thing i saw him in. He commanded every scene he was in. Very intimidating. A bit campy, but the whole movie wasn't really trying to take itself seriously - strictly a great fantasy cult flick now.
It's better to burn out than fade away!
my favorite Clancy role
Another time Mcloud!!
He had staples through his neck, he looked so crazy!
Such a massively underrated actor. The guys also real life cool.
Makes an impact in every film he does, as early as the film Bad Boys, he always had a menacing particular image which he maintained as a talented actor.
@@arserobinson7118 he was the main villain in Highlander in 1986 starring Sean Connery but he was good as the bad guy in Bad Boys in 83 with Sean Penn and was a corrupt Solider in Extreme Prejudice in 87.
@@arserobinson7118 That scene where he picks his nose and puts a booger in Sean Penns food was unforgettable.
@@scottknode898 He was amazing as a villain in that movie. Scary AF
100%. He can play good guys and villains, tough guys and soft guys, scientist types and warriors, and is equally convincing every time. There are so few actors who can portray so well such intimidating characters (as the Kurgan), and yet play comforting characters (like his character in Earth 2). Great, great actor. The Adventures of Buckaroo Banzai continues to be one of my favorite films, with a great cast. Highlander, of course, is classic. But he's just so good in every role he does.
Shawshank redemption is one of the greatest movies ever made.
A Stephen King novella.
I remember when it first came out it completely bombed, I couldn't believe it. There was like a month where you could see Forrest gump, pulp fiction, Jurassic park, interview with the vampire, and Shawshank redemption in the same theater at the same time. Ah the 90s..
ABSOLUTELY❤❤❤😘!!!
THE Greatest Movie of all time
Lol
He’s a prime example of why “bad guys” and more supporting characters absolutely can turn a good movie into a great one.
I don’t think Shawshank would’ve held up nearly as well if it wasn’t for him, his acting, and character arc.
well sure. you know what they say. a hero is only as good as his villain. a truly detestable but well-written villain can make the situation even more dire, and the hero's victory even more rewarding.
Or Highlander, he was so BAAAAAAAAAAAAAAD!
How would you describe his arc?
Agreed!
It’s hard to be an effective bad guy without being over the top.
"It's better to burn out than to fade away" This man is a legend.
Neal Young quote
"Neil." And the quote is from Highlander. But the line from My My, Hey Hey obviously came first. Which in itself is an homage to Dylan Thomas's poetry.
Do not go gentle into that good night,
Old age should burn and rave at close of day;
Rage, rage against the dying of the light.
_Happy Hallowe'en, ladies_
Legend? Lol

He's underselling himself massively here because he's humble and modest. However, for me, arguably the best scene in the film is the rooftop scene and the exchange which takes place between him and Tim Robbins when you think he's going to push him off the roof 👍
I absolutely agree
Shut up. If you know what your doing then become a film critic, until then shut up
@@NKdidit.24 I hope for peoples sake you aren’t a real nurse!!

He was literally in the greatest movie of all time. What an honor.

Not only was he great in Shawshank, but he was great in the Highlander, Starship Trooper and Shoot to Kill. Great actor. Love his work.
And Pet Semetary 2 !
And Bad Boys
And the Adventures of Buckaroo Banzai.
He completely over-acted in Highlander. He was believable as the ultimate evil without behaving like drugged-out punk in the church scene.
Pathfinder 🗡
Clancy Brown is a phenomenal character actor that’s so often overlooked for just how good he is. He also strikes me as someone that I would really enjoy just hanging out with.
Clancy has a lot of roles under his belt but will forever be the Kurgan in Highlander for me. He was awesome in that role. There can be only one!
I was just going to write that in the comments. Lol
Yes.. and he kills it as mr. Krabs
Yes!! Holy Ground, Highlander!
"It's better to burn out, than fade away!"
For sure he was young in that.
I met Clancy many years ago. It was while I was working at a restaurant. I sat him at his table. I accidentally gave him a menu with no menu in it. It was blank inside. He came up and told me in a nice way. I apologized and replaced it. He was totally cool. He was very nice, quiet, reading a book at his table, and tipped well.
I love hearing stories like that ! Thanks for sharing that 4 real
I gotta know, does he look physically imposing in person?
@@IceDragon1377 I remember him being really tall. I'm only 5'3' so he was really tall to me. He had a quiet demeanour. You know what I mean? Like not loud or boisterous. Not scary or anything. Just a chill guy. This was back around 1999 or 2000, I believe. I think he was wearing a black leather jacket. I knew who he was but didn't really say much because I was nervous and didn't want to bother him. I was a hostess at the time and a few actors and actresses would come in from time to time.
I have a similar story of him when I was working at a cafe about 12 years ago. Came in semi-regularly. Very very nice man, very quiet and reserved but friendly.
You blanked him
Actually got to meet Clancy Brown during a trip to Vancouver, Canada in the early 2000s…We had taken a lift up to Grouse Mountain. While there, I noticed him standing at one of the overlooks checking out the city below. He was alone. At the time, for the life of me, I couldn’t remember his name. But I recognized him from movies I had seen (Pet Sematary 2 and Shawshank Redemption). I walked up to him and introduced myself, told him I really liked his performances in the aforementioned films. He smiled and asked if I liked any of his other work. I told him sure and mentioned a couple of others I could remember. He thanked me, asked if I wanted to take a picture or an autograph. I declined and said I just wanted to say hello and compliment him on his work. He didn’t seem surprised at all. He was really personable and approachable.
I'm 55 and remember his greatest role in Shawshank. My now 23 year old child remembers him as Mr. Krabs. Great memories.
Shawshank Redemption is a must watch anytime I come across it. Absolute masterpiece
As soon as I saw commercials for it back in the day I knew it was gonna be great
A Stephen King novella.
Been watching Spongebob my whole life and never knew he plays Mr. Krabs. Well done Rich
Always read the credits when they roll, always full of info.
No feckin way!
Same
Hahaha same. Even more respect..
Same
It’s weird how Clancy Brown is known for playing the one of baddest guys in film history when he’s known to be one of the nicest celebrity ever
He was incredible in Shawshank, just incredible... and that entire cast had perfect chemistry .... what a great film.
Had the pleasure of showing it to my 85 year old uncle a couple years ago... he really really enjoyed it.
And to think Tom Cruise was supposed to play Andy lol
@@JasonMalyhorrifying!!?
Clancy Brown's role that always comes back to me is his drill seargent in Starship Troopers
I loved him in that. He busted himself down so he could end up getting intelligent bug at the end.
What a miserable movie…
I loved him as Gus in Pet Sematary 2
Sergeant Zimm: “The enemy cannot press a button if you disable his hand! MEDIC!”
MEDIC!!! 🤣
A terrific film, Shawshank. And Clancy’s character was indeed mesmerizing and terrifying. He played it perfectly
Clancy Brown is just a class act all around, while playing some if the most delightfully reviled villains in movie history.
Shawshank hands down best movie ever made. I can watch it dozens of times it never gets old.
Yes, literally the greatest movie of all time!
American beauty, Requiem for a dream also.
not a bad movie indeed, but more often I watch it, the more nonsense and tropes I discover.
Lol..WTF is WRONG with you?
My dad showed me the movie a long time ago and was telling me it's one of the greatest movies and I wanted to hate it but liked it that much watched it again right after it finished.
I drove limos in Houston and had Clancy Brown as a passenger. You meet a lot of folks in that business and he was memorable as a solid guy. Not a huge ego, just a regular guy.
My Grandmother met him at least once back when she was the Head Chef at a concert Theater
A regular guy who told you to roll up the privacy screen and stop asking questions
Clancy was beyond excellent in Starship Troopers.
"Who here thinks they have what it takes to knock me down?..."
"The enemy cannot PUSH A BUTTON IF YOU DISABLE HIS HAND!"
MEDIC!!!!!
PAIN IS IN YOUR MIND!!! WHO’S NEXT?!!
O daing I forgot. I agree
I think he and Michael Ironside were the only actors in the film who knew exactly what kind of movie they were actually in
He owned that role. A very underrated actor.
One of the greatest movie villain actors ever....so crazy to see The Kurgan sitting here having a regular conversation with someone.
Such a good humble man. Nothing even close to his Shawshank character.
For a guy who almost always plays terrifying hard men, he comes across as an absolute gent. My dad always used to say "If the big men had tempers like the little men, there'd be no little men left."
Awesome saying..
Big men and big dogs can afford to be gentle..they don't have to prove anything. The meanest men and dogs seem to be the little ones.
@@luv2fly745 The meanest men/dogs are that way because they think their "bark" is enough to scare someone into submission and they get their much needed ego boost because they feel tough, but when a bigger man/dog who is usually nice actually gets angry and doesn't back down to their bullshit, they know they're about to get hurt and they become cowards real quick.
well my son isn't the tallest but is the nicest person ever. This comment obviously is one of inner anger ! If all little men had the brains of big men we'd be in trouble !!!
@@troubledspirit3328 not really mrs
A wonderful actor, highly underrated ❤
This guy has the coolest voice ever. Terrific actor. I wish Carnivale didn't get cancelled, such a great show, and he was terrifying in it.
what happened to carnivale was an absolute tragedy, they creators wanted a 5 season show and they had to cram it all into s2 and it didnt really work, so disappointing when great shows get cancelled, sarah connor chronicles was another one
His acting in Carnivale is peerless.
"I killed him twice..." LOL! Best story I've heard in a long time. 3rd time is the charm Clancy.
I've loved Clancy Brown since Highlander. One of the greatest villains in cinema history.
I always enjoyed his Gus character in Pet Semetary 2. He was pretty badass in that.
@@ericbattle4597 Check out the movie Shoot To Kill with Sidney Poitier, Tom Berenger, and Kirstie Alley from 1988. He's great in that too!
Plus he was one of the greatest versions of Lex Luthor, i.e. one of the greatest supervillains, period.
He was funny as hell in Starship Troopers.
MEDIC!!!!!!!
@@ericbattle4597 god what an awful film that is
"Highlander" was such an epic, and he was the perfect villain.THAT is my favorite film for Mr. Brown... :)
Clancy Brown is of of the greatest actors there has ever been. He is under rated in my opinion. He can play any part given to him good guy or bad guy. He nails the part period.
... one of the greatest actors there have* ever been. If it starts with "one of" it's always plural.
I loved the roof scene about him not having to pay taxes
"Do you trust your wife?"
Great opener for a guard who kills prisoners.
@@jackhalas9493 lawyers? Bunch of ball washing bastards 😂
Look out, Merv, somebody's about to have themselves an accident
Best part of that scene for me is when Hadley is talking about his brother, who was rich, but had just literally died,
"It's incredible just how lucky some
a$$holes get"😊
What are you jimmys staring at? Back to work!
The brilliance of this man not only as an actor but as a voice actor as well is astonishing. He has not only given us so many iconic roles but sooooo many iconic voices. He honestly deserves a lifetime achievement award or something for the greatness he has given us.
Great actor! He tends to play villain/antagonist roles but he seems to be so sweet in real life.
Superb actor who contributed immensely to the movie...imagine it without him ? Not possible.
Love Clancy Brown in everything he does.
He always delivers a fine performance.
Very unassuming man.
Loved James Whitmore in the movie also.
He was also great.
I must admit, I was happy to see Clancy in the new Dexter series. He always seems to play his parts so well.
God I love Clancy Brown! His voice, his talent,... total man crush!
He also plays lex Luther on many animated batman films.
Clancy Brown played a great role in Shawshank. He, Morgan and Tim made that movie click. Great actor/ artist.
For me and I’m 53 now watching Highlander his character scared the crap out of me what a great actor
I once shared a flight to LA with Clancy Brown. I really wanted to get an autograph, but got shy at the last minute after we deplaned. Great actor and my favorite character of his was Sgt. Zim in Starship Troopers. However, his entire portfolio of roles is amazingly extensive and his range is immense. I hope to run into him again someday, but have the courage to ask for that autograph.
You’ve got a cool story though, and that’s all you need!
Why do people want autographs?
He has so many great roles, but I'll always remember him as Viking in Bad Boys. Sean Penn tuned him up with a few cans of soda in a pillowcase. Great scene from a great movie!🙂👍
Really? That was him? Decades ago since I’ve seen that one. Thanks for posting this.
Honestly a much better prison movie than Shawshank.
I lost it when he said that he killed that guys again. 🤣
The reveal of Andy having tunneled out of Shawshank Prison gives me chills every time. Easily my favorite movie of all time.
And then you wonder how the hell anyone accomplished such a feat with a tiny rock hammer.
And to think Tom Cruise was supposed to play Andy lol
@@JasonMaly Yeah, I can't see it. But I would never underestimate Cruise. I've seen him do fantastic work in things like Interview with the Vampire and Vanilla Sky. He's a capable actor when he's not being an action star.
@@ericbattle4597 ... and how he pinned the poster covering the tunnel entrance to the wall from inside the tunnel. Not to mention no guard ever accidentally punching a hole in any of the posters and discovering the tunnel during the countless cell inspections thoughout the years.
@@einundsiebenziger5488 And the sewage pipe being that wide for him to crawl through. Not to mention, how easily he broke through the steel and the thunderstorm covering the sounds for him. Also, the fact that he was never moved out of his cell for 20 years? So many unrealistic things, but still a GREAT escape scene and film!
The earliest role I recall seeing Clancy Brown in was "Bad Boys" with Sean Penn, filmed in 1983 I believe.
freaking great movie
Viking and Tweety!! 😂
That movie is intense!
Hell ya I was trying to remember this one. Thanks😁
Horowitz fucked Viking’s world up with that radio.
In 1999 I was 19 and ended up next to James Whitmore (Brooks) at a theatre men’s room and I didn’t think I was that guy but blurted out “Brooks!” I composed myself and said nothing else until we washed our hands and left the men’s room and I shook his hand. Very friendly gentleman.
What a genuinely nice person.
This guy was a guest speaker at my College graduation ceremony in Urbana Ohio in 2010. Shawshank is an all time favorite of mine.
that's awesome (for real). I'd rather see him or a similar type of actor speak than the usual boring UN/US political system stooge.
Haha.....my son and daughter in law both played sports and graduated from Urbana.....I felt compelled to respond because Urbana is rarely ever brought up! Urbana is no more....
Just don’t ask “what time do we eat” ?
I feel old when the Highlander is trumped by sponge bob. The man has presence.
I'm a big fan of both but spongebob (at least while under Hillenburg) is special
I can't wait to hear Mr Krabs to say to a foe "There can be only one..."
The roof top scene in Shawshank Redemption is one of the reasons I became an accountant. You will always be respected if you have skills and offer those around you value.
Number one most common question, people that were in something that became huge and iconic, was; "Did you know??" They keep asking that over and over, and no one knows.
They would just hope something is accepted and liked.
But it gets to the point, like I am watching the same interviewers over and over.
SHAWSHANK was a fantastic movie. I must has watched it a dozen times. Every minute of it is riveting.
What an amazing contrast between Clancy's role in Shawshank and his role in 'The Hurricane'. In both films he plays a prison officer but in Hurricane he's kind and compassionate.
He also played Lauphgrin in a Sean Penn film called Bad Boys. If you haven't seen it you should. It's a fantastic film.
The scene when they are tarring the roof and andy asks if he trusts his wife after he got that inheritance from his brother. Just brilliant.
An underrated actor for sure.
Shawshank is one of the greatest movies ever made.
EVERY movie is one of the greatest of all time!!
Mr Krabs and Hank Anderson are my most favorite roles from him.
If you met him you probably wouldn’t know is name, but you would damn sure know his movies! Such a compliment to his abilities.
One of my all time favorite actors ! I'm so surprised he doesn't get more work.
Imagine a world where no one cares what you look like?
Well that world sure isn’t in hoolywood
More? Check out his filmography
@@rhocat362 I'll do that,, thank you !!
loved the scene in Shawshank where Clancy is about to throw Tim off the roof of the prison.
He just was such a believable phycopath
What are you jimmys staring at?? Back to work!
“Drink up while it’s cold, ladies.”
... psychopath*
That rooftop scene, by far the best for me.
For me, it was playing The Kurgan in Highlander, he was awesome in that, he went so deep in character that it actually worried set and cast members!!
Shawshank Redemption is one of my all time favorite films and I can never get tired of watching it !
Bad Boys is a gem of a picture from back in 1983. Sean Penn is in it and Clancy Brown as Viking.
Wow. Learn something every day. Did not realize that was Clancy in Bad Boys, can picture it now!
Brooks was one of my favorite. And also one of my favorite saying.
Get busy living, Or get busy dying.
Why is always nice to see the few actors you hate his character's action in a movie..is truly a great genuine articulate participant in an interview. Glad to see he is getting more recognition for his work. I'm sure his filmography is vast...but I still recall Highlander with great nostalgia...Thanks!
Shawshank is always gonna be a classic, he’s also done numerous voice over work way before SpongeBob…but I have to say, Clancy Brown absolutely owned his role as the dead/abusive stepdad cop in Pet Semetary 2
Loved him as Gus
Scared the sht out of me as a kid. That menacing grin.
The surprise finding out later that he played Mr Krabs
“Drew, buddy…”
His VA work as Hades in GOW III is fantastic.
I was thinking that too!
Great actor - fills a role and is larger than life when he does. From Highlander to Shawshank - amazing. Love sponge bob too
He was also great in the short-lived HBO show Carnivale as the villain opposite Nick Stahl.
First saw Shawahank in the mid/late 90’s when I was in my mid-teens, thanks to McDonald’s!
They, at the time, where doing one of their promotions, but a meal get a coke glass, another meal etc.
Well at the time, they where doing one giving away vhs tapes and that’s how I saw 2 of the best movies I ever saw!
Shawahank and A Few Good Men!
I don’t do a top 10 list, my mind changes as often as the hands on a clock, but these two are in in that very group that are there and I can watch, any time and any point through the film!!
There are few films that can do that, so few, but when they do come along, they are life changing!!
Love watching Clancy Brown scenes from many movies. Great actor.
I was born in 81, I remember him most as the big bad in the first Highlander movie.... lmao, he was so badass.... Bobby pins and all holding his neck together
rumor had it that Clancy was sobbing like a little girl when they took him away at the end of Shawshank, but I find it hard to believe, he seems pretty calm, collected.
Yeah, his character 'Byron Hadley'.
Respect to the those who directed the movie for not SHOWING his character crying.
Clancy Brown as Gus in Pet Sematary Two is a super overlooked horror movie performance. He absolutely goes for it lol
I *loved* Carnevale!! If any show out there deserves a reboot, it is that! Clancy is superb in everything he does!
Clancy Brown was unbelievable in Shawshank Redemption. He gave a great performance.
Clancy Brown is so good at playing the bad guy. It was nice to see him play a good guy. In Starship Troopers.
He was in the final season of Dexter. Absolute killed it
absolutely*
I live down the road from urbana. Our reservoir is name after his dad . Great guy. A local hero.
Clancy is a brilliant actor! I like every role he plays and in "Billions" he is superb together with another favorite of mine, Paul Giamatti.
Wasn’t Clancy Brown also ‘ Viking ‘ in Bad Boys with Sean Penn? Great movie when he and Sean Penn were young.
Clancy Brown has not be recognized enough. He is such a fantastic actor
I just watched this again last night after not seeing it for years, terrific film. Clancy plays great part.
I thought his best scene in Shawshank was when he was going to throw Andy off the roof. This guy has been around for a long time. IMDB has him listed with 301 acting credits. That is a ton of work by anyone's standard. He played a lot of bad guy roles early in his career (probably because he was so good at them) but as he got older, started playing more sympathetic characters. He is an excellent actor and I've really enjoyed his work over the years. Appreciate the interview, thanks.
No doubt his best scene!
How about his breakout role as Viking in Bad Boys starring Sean Penn
That’s what always comes to my mind when I see him
TV and movie legend. What a guy
Great Actor!.....and he seems like a genuinely nice guy.
And in a way, makes this video almost disarming. He was so convincing in playing an evil, heartless character in Shawshank that you just expect him to be like that to some extent in real life. Great actor for sure.
Shawshank is a "Real Man's" movie, and if you're a guy who hasn't seen it yet it's time to step your game up.
Clancy is a very underrated actor. He’s been in so many things and I don’t think he gets the recognition that he deserves!
This is what a fine actor does. You forget the person and remember the role. A great body of work behind him.
One of my top 5 fav movies ever!! Superb acting all around.
The first role Clancy Brown played that really caught my attention was 'The Swede' in Bad Boys (1983). I hated that character so much! Funny thing, the actors who play the worst villains are often the best people in real life. I'm glad it's true in Mr. Brown's case.
His name was Viking .He had that radio blow up n his face
Yes, that's the one I always remember best too. And I heard that as well, the best bad guys are played by really nice guys. Much like, the best comedians are often the most unhappy people in real life.
Right? and the actors that play the good guys/ most loved characters are often jerks. Not all of them though.
@@eviljoker303 Yeah, you're right.
You mean, Viking
riches thanks for that at the end is so sincere
I always see him as his character in highlander. Such a great actor.
Clancy Brown is an amazing actor. I first saw him when the first Highlander came out. He delivers such great performances.
