Dick Cavett Show Part 2/3 - Peter Falk / Cassavetes & Gazarra (1970) Part 2/3

[fuckingharpsichord]

i wish we could see the drummer as well

[rjplamf61]

Priceless. love everything these three guys were connected to. "Husbands" is one of the most intense movies I have ever seen. Cassavettes was ahead of his time.

[chickenwretch]

Would have loved to see these 3 great actors bitch-slap the hell out of Letterman, Cavatt was cool though.

[bornyesterday21]

I don't know. When i was in high school, i loved these guys and this kind of stuff. Now i'm watching this video and thinking, 'you know, this isn't all that funny'.

[ericfrentzel]

They don't make shag rugs like that anymore.

[bustergurl]

3 great dudes. i miss'em. Grazi =D

[menelith1]

R.I.P. Ben Gazzara, the last of the original three amigos. We may never see their likes again.

[Juliaflo]

@menelith1 We will never see their likes again.

[johnnydancer1969]

They really don't make 'em like they used to ... wouldn't you have loved to go for a drink with these guys after the show! RIP Ben.

[Luvie1980]

They don't do this on TV anymore!

[junedeon]

Ben Gazzara...actually all THREE of these cats...were one of a kind. RIP Mr. Treehorn.

Serge Gainsbourg gets drunk every time he's on television and he's celebrated as a national treasure. One time out of a million people get drunk on tv in america and the sky is falling.

[sunnytuesday]

Magical video.

[hellyeahfucker]

why did he hit stanley kramer?? thanks!!

[slowdream101]

I like this

[dani9714]

I love these three guys, John Cassavetes was a true artists, and who cares if they were under the influence or simply being funny? I think this is hilarious!

[evviemoore]

Is it possible they're to some extent acting out the characters they play in Husbands in order to get the audience drawn into that chemistry so they will watch the film?

[Tabish29]

Can u picture any actor being uninhibited like this on public television? Not in this commercial corporate run puppet show we call the world.

[9162vb48]

Okay, we get it. The Three Stooges want to show all of us terribly repressed people that they're NOT terribly repressed. And the way they do that is to act like infants. ... See, this shows us that they have no inhibitions.

That not even infants or seven-year-plds would act like they're acting, hey, that's beside the point. What's important is simple ... ... ... being a celebrity.

[9162vb48]

They're all geniuses! They're all geniuses!

.... At least that's what they keep telling us.

[MrFingersniffer]

i think you had to do some massive speed bumps of coke to go on the dick cavett show.

[TheTubePortal]

I'm watching the whole thing hoping that Dick kicked these guys off the show at some point because these guys were being big time jerks. They were nowhere near as funny as they thought they were. They weren't just disrespecting Dick, but also the audience.

@TheTubePortal

You're a bore. I replied in "part 1/3" what I think of it, but as a fan of Peter Falk who I am, I unworthy that you comment on each of the videos of the interview only to criticize, really.

Sorry for my bad English.

[TheTubePortal]

@alguien1234 It's good that you are a fan of Mr. Falk, but you have missed my point. This was a talk show and in its day it was considered the most intelligent talk show on television. When these actors went onto the show they must behave as guests to the host. Instead, they behaved very foolishly, like children, or even worse. If it was meant as a joke they carried it too far. You can tell from the audience reaction that they also were uncomfortable with their behavior of these men.

[alguien1234]

@TheTubePortal

I don't know how people felt. I too would have preferred a serious interview, but I really don't think it was improvised on television, so I wouldn't blame only the guests. Anyway, we're not going to make an endless discussion about this ...

[TheTubePortal]

@alguien1234 I agree, we are both entitled to our opinion :o) Have a nice weekend.

[mussman717word]

You guys do realize, this audience chanted "We Want Dick!" on national television, don't you?

[Deavi783]

This is better than the circus.

[Skatecareerheaven]

Back when it was noble to be an actor. Watch a talk show today and 90% of the time it's some horry star who lacks depth and true talent.

[MorbidHybrid]

best part is the gay crewmember drinking coffee at around 3:57

[Mdriver1981]

John Cassavetes succumbed to his alcoholism on February 3, 1989. Peter Falk died of natural causes 41 years after this interview (June 23, 2011). Dick Cavett and Ben Gazzara are still alive. 

[kneejerker]

@Mdriver1981:

Thank you for providing death dates which anyone could easily obtain via a google search. How about the coffee drinking crewmember -- is he still with us??

[Mdriver1981]

@kneejerker, tell me his name and maybe I can help.

[Mdriver1981]

@kneejerker, tell me his name and maybe I can help.

[Mdriver1981]

@kneejerker, he died of AIDS on October 31, 1981.

[Mdriver1981]

@kneejerker, no, he masturbated himself to death.

[Luvie1980]

@Mdriver1981 Ben Gazzara died from cancer 2 days ago. RIP Ben.

[Juliaflo]

@Mdriver1981 Mr. Gazzara joined his buddies recently.

[TheLegoFan1]

LOL with all of em falling over each other...It's the best XD
