[khanusman00]

[Xeela10]

[Dani16Biebzzz]

I LOVE ROBERTO :D

[Dani16Biebzzz]

I LOVE ROBERTO :D

[MarianoGabriel25]

HE IS THE BEST!

[AliveinHim888]

Okay, Roberto Benigni is a genius and so lovely. That woman next to him (whoever she is) was being utterly rude.

[willnicholson18]

@AliveinHim888 I hated that she kept interrupting him! She was rude and completely killed the humour. Totally agree with you.

[Kaffeebaum]

"I've only made one film and I don't think the pope wants to watch it."

i laughed SO hard at that!

[slowzen]

I didn't know who Patsy Kensit was until i watched this vid. Now I know she's just another bitch.

[joshgrobanfan1991]

jajaja!! i love his accent!! he is soo funny!! what is wrong with that woman she looks so mad that he is getting all the attetion! that woman is selfish!!

[eqsmooth]

Patsy Kensit was so hot in Angels & Insects, but she is so frightened that Roberto might accidentally slap her.

[amdnovello]

@eqsmooth ahah slap her! I was worried too

[FuyuhikOco]

Everyone is blaming that gal for interrupting him.. well, i want to thank her. Looking at this crazy annoying italian was really sad.

[Ducksexbody]

is the pope a catholic?

[mrmebs]

@Ducksexbody *paedophile

[AngelBiLove]

@Ducksexbody yes. how dumb are you?

[AngelBiLove]

@Ducksexbody hes the fucking HEAD of the catholic church. Honestly how retarded are you

[Ducksexbody]

@AngelBiLove can Muslims join the catholic church?

[TheThomastran1313]

any1 else met the pope?

[jaz88pa]

He is CRAAAAAAAAAZY!

[TheBeanyBoy]

Patsy is a real twat. Let the man tell his story and be quiet.

[jackmorefx]

you should see some videos about him explaining the Divine Comedy by Dante here in Italy(if you know italian)...he remembers all the Comedy,all the lines,it's incredible!

[thosenightswrong]

"Ive only made one film but i dont think the pope wants to watch it"

xDDDDDDDDD

[HusamThaherVEVO]

BAAAAAAAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAAAAAHA­AHA HE DOESN'T KNOW WHAT POPCORN IS !!!!!

[Kenshiroit]

@HusamThaherVEVO ah I think he knew, but he couldn see the correlation, pope=popcorn.

[lexi297]

patsy argh she just ruined the mood, i love that italian guy he is so funny - anyone know what film he was in that the pope wanted to see? i wish i was italian :) so passionate

[VannErGodt]

@lexi297 IMDB.com and check it out. Im guessing La vita è bella but im not sure

[JacobSpagnoletti]

@lexi297 check out for the "Papocchio". In that movie a very young Roberto dress the clothes of the Pope! Really funny! And yes, the film the pope wanted to see was "La vita è bella". Greetings from Italy dude ;-)

[steadwik]

who is that bitch?

why does she interrupt him?

[KenFromBeara]

@steadwik patsy kensit. she's being a real pain in the arse!

[stephaniiadion]

He's so cute! LOL

[GriffithAMPS]

he's the Italian version of the Energizer Bunny :)

[kvillen11]

BAPIDI BOPITI?!

[Str4t0sPh3rE]

Sure, he was eating Popecorn with the Pope.

[animelover5076]

this clip is meant to be about enjoying roberto's story about how he met the pope so why are we all fighting about whos countrys the best? every country is amazing and different so can everyone just stop arguing and just enjoy the vidio? x x

[thedelta445]

whats her name????

[MarkieSparkie]

@thedelta445 She's called Patsy Kensit :)

[specialfaiths]

*is giggling like an idiot at the image of the Pope and Graham watching his film*

[animelover5076]

i love italian people, they are so full of passion and life. i wish the whole world could be like that. (oh and if any italian people are reading this comment, i completly love your ice-cream! please dont ever ever stop making it! lol x x

[littlesabra91]

@animelover5076 i'm italian....we are like other people...Benigni is strange and funny even for italian people...the south of italy is full of passion and life and this is why the rest of italy hate them....i'm embarassed when i see italian people(mostly from the south)in english programs...i love italian food and art but i want to go to live in usa!!!

[animelover5076]

@littlesabra91 i want to live in the usa too, i live in england and its not that exciting here, you could drive round britain in like a day its so small lol xx

[fafatatarra]

@animelover5076 If u arentt living here... u problably never tried the italian ice-cream... just sayin.. the one we export is total crap, i warn u... :D

[MrItaliano1900]

we Italians have invented and discovered 90% of the things that exist in the world. We have 2000 years of history. For exs, the radio (G.Marconi), telephone (Antonio Meucci), we have discovered America, and nuclear energy (E. Fermi). The first personal computer (P.G.Perotto), but there are thousands of inventions. We invented the comedy, opera. We are the masters of the show. All the greatest comedians , directors and singers have Italian origins. Benigni, made the film school to the Cow boy

[TheMitchy93]

@MrItaliano1900, The chinese and vikings can be proved to be the first people who discovered America, Nuclear energy was discovered by Henri Becquerel, Nikola Tesla invented the Radio. You can't say one person invented the personal computer as it is made up of different things discovered and made by different people.

I would disagree about all the greatest are Italian as well!

[MrItaliano1900]

@TheMitchy93 Antoine Henri Becquerel discovered radioactivity, not nuclear energy (Italian E. Fermi). The Vikings discovered America, hahaha, the world believes that the Italian Christopher Columbus discovered it. Tesla did not invent the radio (Italian Guglielmo Marconi), but he was a scientist expert in electromagnetism. You have very confused ideas, it isbetter if you go back to school or go on Wikipedia.

[MrItaliano1900]

@TheMitchy93 any scientist or historian can tell you that we Italians are a superior race and ingenious. What do you want to talk over the discoveries, music and art? Want to talk about cooking, you know that Italian cooking is the best in the world, or maybe you want to talk about fashion. You know that fashion is created and born in Milan, the fashion capital. We invented fashion and inventing every day. Maybe you want to talk about boats, motorcycles, cars. You know we are the bestm shut up

[TheMitchy93]

@MrItaliano1900, No i dont want to talk about fashion because i'm not gay, i dont care how fancy people make food on the plate, it wont look like that after travelling through someone's digestive system. Historians have discovered the chinese and the vikings had visited America before any Italian. Where have all your other comments gone, did you remove them because they were wrong?

[MrItaliano1900]

@TheMitchy93 My comments are here, I do not have it deleted. this discussion is boring, you're too young

[TheMitchy93]

@MrItaliano1900, So you think because i'm young i'm not intelligent?

[MrItaliano1900]

@TheMitchy93 u are 20 years.. too young ... but maybe you like Lady Gaga, maybe you think she is American, i'm sorry but she is 100% Italian, born of Italian parents. Madonna is Italian, her real name is Veronica Ciccone. or Paris Hilton is Italian 50%. If you want you can tell me your band favorite actor or director, he certainly has Italian origins ..

[Kenshiroit]

@TheMitchy93 lol the first people to discover america was the natives, lol. Not the vikings, the chinesee or Columbus.

[TheMitchy93]

@Kenshiroit, To discover a place is normally in the perspective of an outside source i.e. vikings.

[Kenshiroit]

@TheMitchy93 also the natives came from outside.......

[TheMitchy93]

@Kenshiroit, How would the natives be an outside source, natives means native to that land, meaning that they were born there.

[Kenshiroit]

@TheMitchy93 the natives came from asia, and they inhabitated the "new world" before the vikings/chinese/columbus. Therefore the natives are the real discoverer of America.

[theschranzer666]

@Kenshiroit wasnt they born there? o.O

[SKYCLAD77]

@MrItaliano1900 And we are very humble too, fuck yeah!

[WeWillNotGoQuietly]

The girl looks very very uncomfortable sitting next to that guy.

[noel83ww]

ma dai se vai li strilli e gesticoli come un pazzo, tra l'altro metà delle parole che ha detto pronunciate in quel modo non hanno senso

Poi di film famosi all'estero ha fatto solo la vita è bella

[TheShamy12]

What film is this guy talking about?

[TheGtrotter]

@TheShamy12 The name of the film LA VITE A BELLA OR LIFE IS BEAUTIFUL in english

[Polojine1]

i met someone one day and he was like him and looked kinda like him.. was a real pleasure

[frankcioppa]

To theundertaker19. Uh, sorry, but you totally misunderstood my posting. I'm into forensics and was referring to her crossing her knees away from him and trying to to turn away from him as much as possible. Her facial expressions and totally dumb remarks tell me she didn't have a clue what he was talking about. Maybe this scared her and made her want to run away. She's obviously not Benigni's intellectual equal. He's brilliant, she's a beautiful shell.

[tonytrailer]

when was this interview?

[pestrada]

fucking people got no respect for such an amazing person, 

[romaroma896]

americans are the shit of this planet!YOU DON'T HAVE A CULTURE!!!you are shit,i hate all of you so much

[sassyviking]

he is so sweet :) Love the italians<3

[frankcioppa]

Look at her body language!  She really doesn't like him - or at least is turned off by him.

[theundertaker19]

@frankcioppa are you nuts she is touching him for no apparent reason. i wouldnt be surprised if they did it in the dressing room afterwards

[fmary8]

orgoglio italiano di sempre

[ImYoUrNiGhTMaRe100]

A legend.

[hipsterpagliacci]

graham norton was acting like a total douchebag. benigni is a legend, full stop.

[ElijahsImpact]

@hipsterpagliacci No he wasn't.

[daffodil977]

He is too adorable for words :)

[BlackMirinda]

@daffodil977 Agreed !

[codownni]

Why is he shouting and swinging his arms around?

[thelinus85r]

@codownni:

It is the Italian way to talk. He only does it more often than other italian do.

[raggis93]

" My heart was really beating eh.. beating.. bbb.. b. bounces! re.. re....REBOUUNDED! thum thuthuthom thuthu THOOM!!!!!!" haha

[BlackMirinda]

@raggis93 LOL. Hilarious !

[blackNRN]

Ma questi 2 idioti lo sanno chi hanno di fronte? La donna chi è? Fa tutte quelle facce schifate, ma chi si crede d'essere? In confronto a Benigni sta stupida cafona è ZERO! Anzi, meno di ZERO! E poi lui? Ma lo avete visto? Vuole fare il figo con Benigni? Ma grandissimo idiota, villano, zotico, cafone e maleducato, stai parlando con un poeta, genio e intellettuale, che tu al confronto sparisci come una scoreggia al vento e ti xmetti il lusso di fare anche lo spiritoso? Dovresti baciargli i piedi!

[BrandoZeppelin89]

@blackNRN Ma guarda che Benigni all'estero non sanno chi cazzo sia, se si eccetua La vita è bella. Questa ridicola concezione di Benigni come intellettuale o addirittura genio ce l'ha solo qualche fanatico. Poi se sapessi l'inglese capiresti che non lo stanno prendendo in giro, anzi.

[MissLouiseeMary]

Patsy looks scared.. 

[arabiantraining]

Che due idio..!

[JamDeity]

I want this man to tell me stories. :)

[ghida44]

Benigni is great while Graham Norton and Pasty are crap and they don't laugh because they don't understand the purity of his words and they way that he is funny

[TheAArchitectt]

pope corn :) great

[chlolover08]

patsy face at 1:15 funny

[ThunderStriker89]

he schools that british barbarian hahahahaha!

[NickandKevinandJoe]

love him. 

[webly17]

Patsy Kensits face at 2:23 ....

She is still smkoing hot though.

[zeroleminski]

i think thats pretty much how the italians behavior, it is not about his own enthusiasm and all

[goldbach782001]

Che presentatori di merda... grande Roberto, fai vedere a questi barbari chi sei...

[trew9710]

no-wah

[axoram]

Patsy sei una sex-bomb!!!!

[thesolo]

I like how Patsy is so irritated at not being in the spotlight to a whopping minute, she has to awkwardly interrupt the story.

[selty]

@thesolo And I love that Graham doesn't even hide that he hates her rofl

[stick1903]

"have you met the pope?" "no!"

i'd like to punch him if i met him, different kind of "jumping on him" entirely 

[ily989]

@stick1903 when benigni met the pope, the pope in charge was Giovanni Paolo II and not Benedetto XVI

[MissOwlee]

I saw one of Roberto's film in my Italian class, the one set in WW2.

[Sakata1984]

graham norton you are nothing compered with this man...trust me....

[christepotter]

it's really hilarious , i love it

[MsButtercupButterfly]

" my heart is bouncing .. bouncing .. boom boo boo boom " HAHAHAHAHAHA LMHO

[xazadix88]

I LOVE HIM!!!!!! <3 He is so adorable :)

[freethinkerdangerous]

He's so Italian it's frightening <3

[heald111111111111111]

That woman is piss ass annoying 

[FarfetchdForDinner]

His sudden stop laughing and serious face at the camera is BLOODY HILARIOUS LOL!

[vaffanculo115]

graham norton just got harshly rinsed!

[movieparade13]

No puedo creerlo! Que chevere! Roberto en The Graham Norton Show! Seguro que si supiera mas ingles me reiria mucho mas

[geetarwanabe]

I LIKE TO SHOUT IN-A-ENGLISH!

[benwaddelling]

Patsy Kensit looks EXTREMELY uncomfortable.

[BlueSheep20]

I LOVE BEGNINI!!

[alinemerrow]

please tell me what movie was shown to the Pope?

Benigni's learned a pretty nice english since 1999, he couldn't even say the speech properly at the Oscars, now it's good, I think.

[MrFullMetalTube]

The movie was "La vita è bella", Benigni's movie about the olocaust. A very beautiful movie. It won three Oscars in the 1999. Bye.

[florencelovme]

the pope-corn

[florencelovme]

I love Patsy's reactions!

[Jamesgrobs]

just goes to show, remove an Italian's arms and he won't be able to talk.

[mantinicca1]

@Jamesgrobs this not funny.

[Jamesgrobs]

@mantinicca1 come now, one has to be able to laugh at yourself.

[Shendue]

@Jamesgrobs: Actually italians don't use exagerate gestures when speaking. It's a misconception caused by the fact that the middle american, in his ignorance, have the tendence to mistake the immigrant italians from the early XX century with the actual population from italy. Like if we thought you were goin' round on horses with cowboy hats and revolvers.

Actually, watching american tv shows, i usually see a lot of gesturing by american people, and it's funny you don't even realize it.

[Jamesgrobs]

@Shendue Thanks for the history lesson mate. Maybe you should cultivate a sense of humor. I don't have the time to explain the origins of meaning of this phenomena... google it! And by the way this is a British show.

[Shendue]

@Jamesgrobs: Yeah, i figured out it was a british show when i saw Patsy Kensit.

I thought you was a yankee because the misconception is more common between americans then european people, for the reasons i already mentioned.

Anyway, i think you misunderstood the tone of my answer, it was pretty informal. I figured someone may actually be interested in actual facts.

Honestly, i don't find the misconceptions about italians offensive, i rather find them silly and funny at the same time.

[Soundstage8]

That woman is a bitch. Roberto is a genius.

[caioviana]

POPE CORN!!!! LOL

[rhapsody710]

I just think it's funny when Graham makes the joke about POPE-corn ... eating it out of a bishop's hat! hahahah. Break out the Holy Butter & Salt!

[Malbo22]

'And popcorn?'

'Popcorn?'

'Popcorn'

'Pop-?'

'Popcorn'

'Ah yes, Popcorn'

'Popcorn'

'Popcorn'

....crikey! took em long enough didnt it?? lol!

[FarfetchdForDinner]

@Malbo22 ROFL!

[yomadhav]

hus the hawt person

[leofederer]

grande benigni

[frkseu]

graham norton seems retarded

[scannazzo]

pope corn ahahah he can even make jokes in english!

[Lennon4life1968]

Roberto will live until he's 150. He's probably never lived a stressful day.

[84Nippon]

GRAHAM NORTON likes pissing off everybody,that s how he makes the money.....

[CT27NX]

look at it this way:

her looks will fade,

his films, eccentricity and spirit will live on.

[ziochristmas]

1 genius 2 retarded

[pukester1122]

SHe looks quite scared of him when he speaks!!

[sterosso700]

un genio e 2 ritardati

[greengrendel]

O mio dio Benigni e Graham norton! XDXD win!

[soojb7799]

Oh my God -- He's so adorable. He could make any boring-ass story exciting.

[MaryMRevis]

@soojb7799 I KNOW RIGHT?? I mean this man is FUCKING HILARIOUS *smile*. He's too sweet!!



[TheDonutFox]

I just wanted to see him kik everything off off that red table, do a mario hop onto and yell in his little enthusiastic accent arms flailing- "MA-MA MIA! ITS'A DEH FREAKING POPE!"

[weaselidiotu]

pope-corn :)

[MikeUSUK87]

Who is that beautiful women next to Bengini ?

[dottidoll]

@MikeUSUK87 Patsy Kensit -English actress

[Magnesium33]

I jump on him for the joy!!?!?!

[iMIEIattimi]

ROBERTO...GRAZIE DI ESISTERE!!!!Riesce a far ridere anche parlando del Papa!!eheheheh!!

[MarcelloZangha]

@iMIEIattimi mi potresti dire di cosa sta parlando all'inizio??

[iMIEIattimi]

@MarcelloZangha dice che è incredibile perchè lui in italia abita a pochi metri dal papa e tra tanti giorni in cui poteva chiamarlo il segretario del papa, lo ha chiamato quando era a Los Angeles....ahahah!!

[deepenhancer]

@MarcelloZangha parlano del film che ha avuto un enorme successo tanto che è stato fatto uno "special screening" (visione speciale) per il Papa...

[PlutinusTube]

Incredibol

Yeah, incredibol

Eh INCREDIBOL

[florencelovme]

Patsy looks stunning! <3

[PrincessPotato]

OMG Roberto Benigni! I love him so much. Life is Beautiful is one of my favorite movies.

[Kasconero]

The Pope Corn hahahahah

[TrygviMurt]

The film he mentions in the end, is it a gay porn film? If it is, the pope and all the members of the catholic church most definetly want to watch it!

[mademynamekindoflong]

@TrygviMurt oh ho ho aren't you clever

[CINEMAITALY]

Inglesi? ah ah ah!!! poracci!!!!

[ildena]

I'm sorry for Benigni, but it's like candy to give the pigs, They can not get even half of the culture of this man-Mi dispiace per Benigni ma è come regalare i confetti ai maiali. Questi non possono arrivare neanche alla metà della cultura di quest'uomo !!

[naghiu85]

@ildena Non avrei potuto esprimermi meglio! Sono inglesi...ho detto tutto...

[greengrendel]

@ildena Guarda ke sn inglesi, ci arrivano si.

[simonjiy]

@ildena si ma vale anche per lui verso il resto dell'italia...

[Eumolpo89]

so funny

[bjarneboy]

Who wants to meet the pope... He's just an homofobisk old fart... I would bitch slap him if I meet him

[MrGetBusy69]

compared to him, the blonde bird might as well be an inflatable doll. absolutely amazing how alive this man is!

[fuzzynippleman]

@MrGetBusy69 no he's kind of a lunatic. wow! no, he freaks her out. . . and me too. For god's sake his flailing arks almost hit her in the face, about fifteen times.
