I just bought my DVD of Bird on a wire, but this clip is not on it... Is it only included in the original movie?

@rekske1 Yes it is not in the re-edited version.

I didn't know that poets could laugh, much less at themselves. Cohen is a very interesting man. He was only middle-aged then. He is elderly now and better than ever.

looks like Graduate's hoffman....

So beautiful and funny at the same time.

@3rby Hitler was a practicing occultist. He brought satan's throne from Turkey in Pergamos to the Riechstadt. He was a drug user, and nothing close to a protestant or Christian.

@3rby Were that it were so. There are 55 Muslim nations, they control the UN. Sharia Law and Jihad insist they have total world dominance and over 90% of the wars on the planet now involve Islam, nice religion you gots there. Oh, 80 million were killed by the Ottoman's taking India, religion of peice? Piece of what fell out of Arafat?

[fleshtruck]

not to be morose but,I PREDICT THAT DUSTIN HOFFMAN WILL PLAY LEO IN A MOVIE. post mortem of course. i think it would work like a charm but hope that leonard cohen outlives everyone and a movie never gets made.

@IExposeMormonism "what left him tongue tied is a phrase no Jew wants to hear" "as brutal as anything... Muslims dished out"

If u r even 1/10 as moronic about the LDS church as u clearly r about Jews & Muslims, i doubt there's anything remotely accurate (or decent) in yr "exposure" of Mormonism.

But folks, i hope nobody gets this comment (or any like it) banned; it's important 4 people 2 know what ignorance is still out there in the world.

Can't be dealt w/ if we try 2 pretend it's not there.
