Peter O'Toole on Leno for Venus Part 1

[DINOLOVER6717]

Lawrence of Arabia is one of the most revered movie's of all time! Why hasn't he gotten an Oscar?!?!?

And before you say so, all i have to say is HONORARY OSCAR MY ARSE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[sethmusic]

peter o'toole's shit has accomplished more than me

[JiffySpook]

Leno simply isn't intelligent enough for this type of interview.

[KellyGreen5555]

@JiffySpook Peter O'Toole much prefers to be interviewed by David Letterman. Both brilliant men!

[sethmusic]

fuck the oscars...the academie hands out awards like candy to people who deserve little more than bitchslap for their performances. to give an oscar to peter o'toole would be an insult to the man.....he is, most certainly above it.

O'Toole is somewhat of a different person than he used to be. One can perhaps places a dividing line before and after his pancreaitis surgery in the mid-70s. While young he was very firey, energetic, quite cocky, a boozer and, as Anthony Hopkins himself said, the kind of guy who could start a fight. In his later days, he's become softer, more gentle; the fire is still there, but shows up more on occasion. And his drinking is less regular and definitely less in volume.

his accent is awesome

[rkiry]

When you see him on shows like Leno and Letterman and see how witty and articulate he really is -without a script, you know this man is a genius. The stars of today pale in comparison, they stutter, mumble, and are at a complete loss for words. Can you think of anybody else who could discuss Shakespeare like this? What a star!

[KellyGreen5555]

@rkiry Letterman brings out the best in O'Toole.

[iTzeXile13]

[guitaoist]

sall good but the sound

just watched My Favorite Year and The Ruling Class. What a genius

[JonathanBorgogelli]

It is absolutely idiotic that Sir Peter O'Toole has never received an Oscar for best actor or supporting actor, it is outrages and bloody incompressible.

Sir Peter O'Toole is one of the few best actor that ever was.

[harsha1234]

I agree completely. I hate to correct you but he has never been knighted either, as retarded as that admittedly is.

[JonathanBorgogelli]

@harsha1234: "are you sure of that?... well, if not he should be knighted then.

[pixxispad]

He's not a Knight because he is Irish. I think he should have won the Academy Awards for Becket and Goodbye, Mr. Chips though.

[toppaz79]

@pixxispad His mother was scottish. I think that makes him a British Citizen? Not too sure tho.

[GriggsC123]

@pixxispad He doesn't want to be Knighted for political reasons.

[martythetickler]

@JonathanBorgogelli Unfortunately, he's not yet a knight, either.

[Radders123]

@martythetickler Apparently he may have declined a knighthood/honorary knighthood in 1987

[Gharmr]

Were you ever glad that you lived in the same time with men like these...

[iampeniel]

When I was a little girl my mother took me to a theater back then you could only see one movie that stayed there for a week or so it was Lawernce of Arabia I was in love for the first time and he was Peter O'Toole. There was only one other Actor that effected me like that but peter was my first.

[tux56]

No I glad to be growing up with these men showing their amazing fruit of acting.

[Brady2k10]

richard harris yes, and this guy, i just wish i was born a bit earlier, maybe 1950 or something

[StoryNClark]

soooooo so glad someone re-posted this

[misssophie119]

this dude is badass

[charliehamnett]

I could not agree with you more, what a remarkable man! ;)

[fleurdelis19]

Correction: he is the ORIGINAL badass :-)
