  • I was thinking the same thing, Groucho is totally dominating the interview. Like dude didn't you get your segement? Capote is being kind and biting his lip.

  • It's a shame that Groucho wasn't generous enough to give Truman a chance to speak

  • Capote is thinking: "Shut the fuck up, motherfucker!"

  • @duckman531 no hes not. hes just being rude because hes trying to make himself look relevant............ while time as passed him by.

  • Heavens to Murgatroid! Fascinatin footage! You would never hear great writers of yesteryear (Lardner, James, Lewis, etc) mentioned on today's talk shows! Much as I love Groucho, I would love to hear more of Capote! Groucho seems to always be "ON"! Thanks for uploading! You've MADE my day & my week! CHEERS, mate! :-)

  • @Patbuchanan Groucho is fascinated by Capote and is taking the measure of Capote's knowledge with his questions.

  • shut up groucho! so rude. truman hardly gets to talk.

  • I completely agree that a writer cannot create when he's drinking, edit sure, like a champ.

  • While Groucho was hanging out on this show, Jack Benny was hanging out on the Tonight Show with Johnny Carson. Carson told him he could come on as a guest any time - so he did. I think these old guys were probably lonely and missed the limelight. What harm did it do?

  • Dick: We'll be back -- probably!` Love his dry sense of humor!

  • Groucho is a grouchy douchebag.

  • Little did they know that one year later, Fear & Loathing in Las Vegas would be written!
