Richard Burton Interviewed by Merv Griffin (pt 1)

[MrRobertJameson]

Burton was a fucking prick.

[saukrates420]

thumps up if Ron Bennington brought you here !

[roystonsaxon]

JuanMctosser - you fucking wanker.

[TheNorgate]

How could Virginia Wolf listen to such rubbish.

[TheNorgate]

Two words: Jack Ass

[GlanceofGlory]

Love, love, love his spiel on the moon landing. Can you imagine being Elizabeth Taylor and being able to sit next to him when he riles people up with provocative things like that and still manages to be so charming? Must've been thrilling.

[daglach]

Amazing voice , charisma , what a man

[siobhans96]

what a suprise richard elden here again wishing ill of the dead.

[DidloDurante]

Burton is spot on about space exploration & of the supposed "advancement" of humanity. No wonder he drank himself to death...he was rightly appalled & bored by people as most compassionate people are.

[GordonMorrice]

Lee Marvin got smashed and fell face-first through a cake during the opening of production party of THE KLANSMAN. Burton almost died during his on-camera death scene. Insane shit.

[unwindzen]

Merv did a great job showing his interest and respondig to the guest.

[SUCKMEISTER005]

That is one old looking 48 year old.

[JuanMacready]

@SUCKMEISTER005 Yes he smoked 100 cigarettes a day. He was lucky not to get lung cancer like his friend Sir Stanley Baker.

[JuanMacready]

Burton was a wooden film actor and an overacting ham who just copied Olivier.

[iggypopbowie77]

@JuanMacready

What an utterly stupid ,idiotic statement!

[JuanMacready]

I agree, it was pretty funny when he died of lung cancer at only 48.

[nnikolle]

Great actor! thanks for sharing!

[nuitetjours1]

@strangefurt64

LAME. Like always.

[nuitetjours1]

@strangefurt64

you thought? You read from a paper, moron.

[JuanMacready]

I'm glad Burton died at only 58, should have been from lung cancer like his friend Stanley Baker.

[connaught2008]

great man, died way b4 his time.
