Russell Crowe interview - Parkinson - BBC

[fan1985ful]

@RichardElden

you're an asshole!

[devilstoysuk2]

The next Jor-el :)

[LamentingHarlot]

Russell Crowe may have had, or still have a temper from time to time, but he is a truly remarkable actor and has prescence which others could only wish for. He is genuine; anything but pretentious - and he does not play" the hollywood game," which makes him even more admirable in my opinion. Mr. Crowe is a phenomenal actor and a charismatic, charming, catch of a man! Congrats to his lovely wife and two handsome young boys :) They are blessed to have him.

[SeraphimSword]

"Most of the people that work in your job are a pack of bloody idiots" - Classic

[magnostic]

He reminds me of Eddie Vedder.

[Searcheur]

vest actor lol

[InnocenceExperience]

lol a group of idiots is a pack. that's just funny for some reason.

[TheDEATHSTARIII]

you know he is actually friends with south parks trey and matt

[CaptainChaos]

He is a bit full of himself isn't he...

[DemiathDoomhammer]

Mr Crowe is going to play Jor-El in Superman: The Man of Steel.. I think he'll be great!

[LamentingHarlot]

@DemiathDoomhammer Yes? and when is this supposed to be coming out? I've yet to see him in the 2010 release where he plays the starring role in Robin Hood, but I know that his portrayal of the legend will be nothing less than impressive.

[icecubesiz1]

gladiator mmmmmmmmmmmmmmm real life eeewwwwww

[elijadejesus]

Russel Crow speaking as another true man.  The world just hates us men. Of course the castrated males and masculated females just hate that. Yet they make up most of the main stream world in which we live in no wonder the world is being faxed to hell because of them.

[elijadejesus]

Russel Crow speaking as another true man. The world just hates us men.

[anjasy]

the best actor, he is genius!!!

[wilpri]

He is a real man. I totally dig him on pretty much every level.

[manowar8899]

Making movies

Making music

and fighting 'round the world !!!

[luverbitch]

mmmm lol I could lick Russell Crowe from head to toe! He is sexy, his temper only adds to him sexieness!

[lizclegg]

He may be a very good actor but Russell Crowe is a prick.

[fishNguitars]

@lizclegg No. You are.

[fais555]

pl0x lixk dah bals@k

[psydrummerhead]

What the fuck does parkinson mean to these people

[ExtremeBogom]

@psydrummerhead

Parkinson is the name of guy doing the interview.

Nothing to do with the health condition or anything.

[raidfaglol]

cool guy, needs more decent roles

[GoStobe]

russel crowe loves some good old fightn'

[ok2kok]

ARE YOU NOT ENTERTAINED? The best Line ever come out of his mouth.

[VirginStitches]

*swoon*

[nadia2004]

Brilliant actor.

[Boganvillar]

FIGHT ROUND THE WORRRRLD

[MrTexasboot]

I love in the way that he talks!

[shereemirabito]

LoL at smooth Aussie being a contradictory term! I just gained a new level of respect for Russell Crowe, he says it how he sees it. <3 it!

[JayRicci7891]

"Making movies, Making songs, And Fightin' Around the World!"

[uglybetty132]

@RandomHuman1000 yeah you're right.. an oscar for best actor and a couple other nominations must mean his career never started. Did you never see a beautiful mind? Don't talk about things you don't understand.

[dmcguire70]

I much prefer Russel over mr sickly sweet Hugh Jackman any day.

[RichardForkins]

Why is the channel called "BBC Worldwide" when so many of the videos are blocked in certain countries? Just call it "BBC Britain" -_-

[hearts76100]

I think he is a diamond bloke and a bloody great actor!

CROWE ROCKS.....

[HayleyLovesMeesha]

LOL!! "Yeah well why not most of the people in your job are a pack of bloody idiots" classic!!!

[smartzazi]

he looked like Georgoe Carlin somehow..

[fornow100000]

crowe sounds so cocky. sounds like a big asshole too

[kingcaesar5]

@fornow100000 like kid rock said, its not cocky it you can back it up.

[DarisPrayers]

Aaahh,Whats wrong with you people?He is so hot! lol.Here is this guy with the morals,integrity and guts to get in peoples faces,and beat the crap out of evil,bloodsucking "media"lyches who have no sense of values and principles.and are trying to bring personal harm to him or to his family.He signed on to be an actor,not to have lowlife wannabe hollywood misfit reporters get into his and his families personal lives.What would you men do?Shake those peoples hands?Stop whining.He is so hot. lol

[zexzy]

@DarisPrayers I'm like soooo totally 100% agree with everthing you said...

[belisariusorb]

Clearly not very modest or charming, a raging ego in fact, but his intensity is what makes him what he is - a very intense actor.

As for the punchups - I wouldn't expect anything less from an Aussie.

[footballisrubbish]

i think he is the best actor in the world at the moment

[face999]

One of the luckiest actors in Hollywood and what's with all that internal anger? Get some help. You've come a long way since Neigbours and have made some good films but you're nothing special.

[warpfield98]

@face999 i don't think he thinks he's anything special.

[jakeyalmighty]

brilliand actor gladiater is best, love russels fuck you paps n media attitude

[dcasey77]

A goldmine? Well, that was modest!

[lippoldt]

He is the best actor in a long time. He is hot too.

[mnewimwlk]

too bad australia and New Zealand are the places where the british limeys scraped the SHIT off the toilet and carted it off too......they are descendents of shit petty criminals and sore-filled whores....:).... Russel crowe is nothing more than a herpes pustule from his great-grandmothers pus-filled cunt

[bexkee]

@mnewimwlk  grow up. Fool.

[mnewimwlk]

too bad australia and New Zealand are the places where the british limeys scraped the SHIT off the toilet and carted it off too......they are descendents of shit petty criminals and sore-filled whores....:)....

[warpfield98]

but its lovely down in Australia and New Zealand.

[mjdvfc]

@mnewimwlk go fuck yourself

[snelpiller]

@yodudewassp meh, I doubt he walked away unhurt =P your right if he randomly attacked ppl for no reason, like beating down old ladies. But if like had a fist fight with some dude, then who cares tbh

[dave790]

@bertiedump haha fair enough, i admire your hateful passion! i think crowe's alright, we'll move on.

[macho417]

He looks better with short hair.

[puremongrel]

media is to hype up an event to sell papers/news

[Pacimpersonator]

He would

Make

An interesting president of the united

States.:)

[Pacimpersonator]

I think that Russel crowe is a fantastic actor. He definitely earned both those

Oscars for

Vest actor.:)

[Restayvien]

@Pacimpersonator

vest? lol

[meanmrmustard89]

@Pacimpersonator LOL wtf is a "vest actor"? Sounds like somthing you would find in gay porn movie.

[jackocloud]

smashing

[mistad00m]

making movies writing songs fightin' round the world

[dave790]

@bertiedump i think he's likeable, fuck the media, he's himself. clooney comes across well but that's just it, you think he lives like a charming saint all the time?

[konradfat]

You fight like Norwegians, ya Fairies!

[Satan820]

makin' movies makin' songs and fightin round the world =D

[alimamma121]

new zealand!!!!

[CarolEspaguetty]

Autralian?? Hi is from New Zeland!

[emor2050]

@bertiedump hahaha, im trying to imagine clooney playing some of crowes roles like gladiator or rompa stompa.. for the better part the stuff that hollywood produces is rubbish and crowe as always starred in films with integrity. if he needs to distance himself from the phoniness of that industry then so be it. if you want to see a nice boy being smooth and charming maybe your on the wrong page, check out this guy orlando bloom.. hes up your alley, a real bundle of joy

[kralor123]

ROBIN HOOD

[reevery1]

He is one of the most down to earth, genuine celebrities I've ever seen. You should subscribe to his twitter - and you'll see what a great guy he is.

[lemonsnlimes333]

damnit why is russell crowe so gorgeous?!

[TheSparkle7]

is crowe a aussie or from new zealand?

[CarolEspaguetty]

@TheSparkle7  new zealand

[xwingclass]

Mel Gibson was to play The Gladitor he turned it down. the rest is history. very good actor.

[gaurav1221]

@xwingclass nd that metters in this context, why?

[fincherderallo]

the guy is himself, applaud it

[vince0123]

gladiator baby

[infidel94]

he is my idol in movies. even if he plays in twilight i will still watch that shitty movie because of him!

[impamiizgraa]

he's an Aries, they're short tempered but usually regret it quickly.

And yeah he's really good at acting! I wish I could be an professional actress =(.

[Alorrana]

parkinson is/was great.. Is he still on  ?

[TheSestren]

@Alorrana He retired

[Alorrana]

@TheSestren

Oh okie thanks tho :)

Cheers.

[alienfurfox]

You said it right Mr Crowe, most of the media people are idiots, because their heads are filled with non-sense and they don't have a clue to what reality really is.

[SlugaBoziji]

He is one very good looking man!

[Weenybean]

I'm just glad this guy is in the world and in some films that I have loved. I also like that he is trying to speak his mind, tactfully for the old guy,not being completely rude as he could be. You can't always be true to yourself in ANY profession but some actors/actresses try and attempt to come across with some integrity. The whole thing is a 'game' anyway isn't it? BTW I like Aussie's.

[estdes1]

Tbh he is an overated actor. In A Beautifull Mind he played the role like he was autistic, not schizophrenic. When a true maverick actor is given a role, and in the case of being given the role of John Nash, a true actor would research all the factors of the mental illness the character had (Schizophrenia), and the differences between Schitzophrenia and surrounding simmilair illnesses.

[762full]

So is Crow gonna kick his ass or what?

I think its time fore some -FIGHT'IN-

[Pharnax]

WHERE IS TUCKER?!

[wesawebi]

russell crowe is one the biggest assholes ever. his ego is enormous.

[snelpiller]

Crowe is a great actor, couldnt care less if hes hot tampered. Aslong as he dosent hurt anyone let him do his thing

[teddyPancake]

@snelpiller PREACH!

[molitovguardian]

Crowe is not infringing on anyone's personal liberties. He's a talented actor & that's what matters. People who decide they hate him can just go BAAAAAAAWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWW­WW

[tiziano300]

I like Parky but he was tactful verging on sycophantic here. He basically wanted to say why do you behaved like spoilt brat you dickhead?

[lefty5128]

didn't Russell start out on the soap Neighbors?

[KaitainCPS]

@lefty5128

Only in a small role for three or four episodes.

[TheUndertakerSaysRIP]

him and christian bale are always serious but great actors....

[sandy10842]

He seems a bit of a bore to me(almost depressing)

[poopchunk3]

when was he diagnosed with parkinsons wtf

[KevinCarey]

@poopchunk3

no Parkinsons is the interviewer

[BMayhew60]

Ron Howard lives in New York? I thought he lived in Mayberry.

[vincentmack37]

parkinson is such an awful worm, he squirms his way through this

[NunuQuadros]

irish banks are going to default on your deposits.

all the insiders know this and are not telling you

move your deposits to a safer bank now!!!!!

[KevinFL]

He doesnt seem to get good roles anymore. I think there's too many good actors who arent a pain in the ass to work with. Another Robin Hood?

[destinationdolls]

LOVE Russell Crowe!! Can't wait to see any and every movie he's in!!

[prashantsunkari87]

post working??

[FearthePast]

Lame actor, bored my to death everytime.

[baryon15]

Born Born in New Zealand in 64, a hot headed actor named Russel Crowe.

He loves to act but he loves one thing more, FIGHTING around the world!

He fights his directors and he fights his fans, it's a problem no one understands. If there's two things he loves it's fighting and FIGHTING around the world.

Making movies, making music and FIGHTING around teeeeh woooorld!

[clansir3]

this man is the definition of humility !!!

[r1cynic]

The quote about Aussies is good.

[CustomJ]

The Douche Master General!

[conjoly]

The hilarious thing is that he believes his own bullshit. What a knob.

[dalemkaine]

gee got tickets on ya self rusty

[rickwoodartist]

he can do three things only and none of them are acting. Drink 16 beers every night. Tries fighting anything that moves and biffs a good dish in a nice resturant

[machogamer]

he was a good actor.its sad that he died.

[Micbo2k10]

@machogamer he's not dead... thats keifer sutherlund

[michor10]

@Micbo2k10 nope. He's not dead either. That's George Clewney.

[numptybaws3]

@machogamer He aint dead it's chris pine you are thinking of

[Orbster25]

Russell Crowe makes me nervous....but he's still awesome.

[ashman102]

@guybjorn

romper stomper is amazing

[JaxxBat]

Bet he eats kiwi for lunch too

[MrValzen]

Best irish actor out there

[ashman102]

@MrValzen

Irish? He's Australian.

[grobo11]

@ashman102 He's actually from New Zealand.

[ashman102]

@grobo11 true dat. but he lives in aussieland now

[JaxxBat]

@grobo11 He is actually awesome too..

[topbluffa1]

and Australians are British he most probably is partly irish.



[TheBalisto]

@ashman102 He's from New Zealand :)

[ashman102]

@TheBalisto Yeah sorry my mistake. :)

[Orbster25]

@MrValzen lol...check your facts...he's an Aussie ;)

[wassup9]

love him to death.

he is so non-conformist. knows who he is, isn't going to answer questions the way the media wants him to so he tells 'em like it is and kicks their ass.

[AirDB23]

he´s an aggressive fellow you can see it in his eyes

[sexydracula]

i love him (crowe).. no no parky's not my type

[roobooh]

Ozzie Ozzie Ozzie......OYAH OYAH OYAH !!!!!

[Pricap]

awesome man! you´re the best ...please! save us! we don´t want spanish films anymore

[JaxxBat]

@Pricap .. He was a Spaniard in Gladiator..

[AsDyingILay]

I was in Gladiator!

[SanguisArcangel]

@AsDyingILay Yeah and I'm Samuel L. Jackson

[Dyerdon]

He's right about the media though... Still trying to find some footage of him with his fans... but I could care less if he's a douche to the media, they're a bunch of bloody idiots! He's a great actor, and isn't horrible in singing, though I think that's more of a hobby than anything else.

[sefjaguar]

he looks almost exactly like eddie vedder here

[jty72]

Makin' movies, makin' songs, and fightin' round the world!

[Wushu17]

I'd imagine Russell Crowe having this hairstyle in the new Robin hood movie.  Rugged, grungy, and yeah.

[FrostedPingu]

To like...or not to like? That is the question...

He's a bit up himself at times and quite frankly a bit of a douche, but I feel obliged to respect him because he's an absolute pro at what he does - a mesmerisingly talented actor.

[NaeJoy]

He is a piece of shit.

[mrjugger]

australian twat

[Critchy39]

Born in New Zealand in 64, a hot headed actor named Russel Crowe.

He loves to act but he loves one thing more, FIGHTING round the world.

[0507590]

@Critchy39 lol a south park fan i see

[HitchHikersBlues]

@Critchy39 : It's his Irishness.

The Irish learned to be fighters for everything.

They had to be, when the fuckin English went round the world takin everybody's land!

[gaelenfade]

@Critchy39 Get 'em Tuggy!

[poundingonthedoor]

Russell Crowe is one of those actors that one either really likes, or really hates. Never much of an in-between-opinion on him. I used to hate him, until I was forced to see Cinderella Man and realized he's a ridiculously talented actor. Many people claim he's a stuck-up, pompous asshole, and maybe they're right, but I think he is just very, very dedicated to his work, and he knows he's good at it. And I'll never tire of seeing his films.

[bugninja80]

@poundingonthedoor He is a good actor but I would never want to meet him because he is such an ass. It's the same way I feel about Tom Cruise.

[mrjugger]

@poundingonthedoor you ponce

[poundingonthedoor]

@mrjugger How about you stop being a douche and let me give my - neutral - opinion.

[gaurav1221]

@poundingonthedoor r u white?

[gaelenfade]

@poundingonthedoor hes a modern day Errol Flynn. Errol was known for womanizing, hard drinking and fighting. To be compared to a hollywood legend isnt a bad thing.

[blairbooth]

This is sooooo funny! Kneecapped1000 gives a send up response to the Mark Lawson BBC 4 radio interview over Russell Crowe's rant about irish, english accents! A must see!

[blairbooth]

Check out Kneecapped1000 vid of Russell Crowes Robin Hood audition, Irish accents and all! Really funny! A must see!

[glotaro1]

Go Russell, knock everyone down. LOL

[otterboxiphone]

I hate this actor to my best passion. Arrogant shit. Worst person.

[SirYawnsalot]

sexy accent!

[mekissingyou]

I watched him on jonathan ross the other week and i thought ross was just sucking up to him so badly.

Didnt joan rivers call him a fucker or something? well he is.

Anyone whos LUCKY enough to be an actor and payed millions and is then playing the 'poor me' card i cant stand.

[24julyuk]

Contrast this to the way Parkinson treats Meg Ryan upon accusing her of similar bahavour towards the media. I love Parky, but I do think he was at fault with the Meg Ryan interview.

[iluvgermans]

Lol after he said "i bang the parts" he laughed right after (that sounded funny to me too) ;D

[cjwright79]

God Keith is such an interminable windbag.

[colsh1690]

he was brilliant in the gladiater!

[mrjugger]

@colsh1690 he was good in Gladiator aswell

[colsh1690]

@mrjugger ha ha point made!

[EcoTriGem]

such an attractive person :)

[Taypion]

wheres tugger?? (lol south park)

[0verseer69]

russell's the man

[GreenGretel]

If Crowe was an actress, he'd be called a "diva" and "difficult" and probably a "bitch" for all the shit he's pulled on and off set, but since he's a talented male actor people just assume he has high standards for his craft that are essential to his "genius." Actresses, no matter how gifted, are treated to a double standard wherein they're expected to always be delightful, whereas male actors are allowed to be moody, temperamental eccentrics.

[uzemakistyle]

@GreenGretel yeah cus thats cool, but if a guy is going to scream for a purse...wel thats gay

[s0nn3rt]

@GreenGretel lol owned

[Orbster25]

@GreenGretel that's not entirely true....
