One of the best to come out of Hollywood. Nobody can do a bad guy like Bruce Dern, and that is real talent.

Rest in peace Alex Easton

“You don’t have a leading man face”. I would have never said that to him, very insensitive.

Unbelievable actor

Bruce Dern eating animal crackers telling Ricky to get the lame-o's out of here is a fond memory.

Bruce was truly one of the all time greats bad guys particularly in westerns

One of the finest American actors of all time.

I see his personality in a lot of his roles.

He laid out how Hollywood has been shit forever. Thanks Bruce.

One of my favorite actors. He made some of the most memorable iconic movies.

Wow!!! What a great in-depth interview. Always like Mr. Dern. Would like to see the entire interview.

Bruce Dern is absolutely fantastic in two of his early performances on "Alfred Hitchcock" t.v. series. They are: "Night Caller" and "Lonely Place". If you haven't watched these and you like Bruce Dern, they are must see in my opinion.

Bruce Dern is one of the best actors in both t.v. and movies. The man is a class act. I'm a disabled Vietnam Veteran, having served there with the army in 1969. The part Bruce played in 'Coming Home' was special to many of us. He hit it out of the park.

I'm 75 years-old now and I've seen many of Bruce Dern's movies and t.v. appearances. He is one of the finest actors I have ever seen. The guy makes any part a must see.

He didn't learn grammar at that expensive prep school.

His agents should have told him the obvious -- he didn't have good enough looks ot hair to be a leading man.

*I've never drunk.

Bruce Dern should have won an Oscar; he has never given anything less than excellent performances.

Dern could do unhinged, dangerous and menacing right up there with Nicholson and Walken. One of the best bad guys ever.

Live folks are cannibalistic to eat & I want no part of it except a bit of inner-knee meat. Here, chew off my right hip after I dip it in east Tijuana onion dip because I like you like a spiny cactus does a live- ass fern; like old-ass Duke Wayne adored crazy-ass-nut Bruce Dern.

I just saw Word On Westerns video about the movie The Cowboys with the now old Cowboys and every one of them praised Dern for his acting and how he scared the hell out of them! They said the one scene where he grabbed the kid and threw him in the river then put the knife to his neck was all Bruce improv at the moment.

Bruce Dern is a Legendary actor

The fine actor A, Martinez from the movie The Cowboys sent me here. Bruce always worked with such an honesty that you didn't believe he was acting the part. That is true craft and art.

For my generation, the Boomers, there is not a better villain than Bruce Dern. I’m sorry he is unhappy that we love him. So much for what he brings as a villain. In almost every movie, there is a great guy and villain or it’s usually a really bad, boring film.

Bruce puts his heart in any part he plays.❤

Excellent conversation. Dern really has earned his chops. A library of great parts. Great that Tarantino still uses him, but give him some better parts, man! Dern always raises every project a few notches. A true American original.

This interview is almost too honest. I don't think it helped his career. He said some things that could be taken the wrong way and I think they were.

Bruce Dern always seemed to be a modern actor. I always kept an eye out for him in movies because he was very original and genuane and believable.

Bruce Dern should have been bigger much sooner. Too much talent.

Awesome actor. One of the best.

The difference is Newman, Caan , Redford , Beattie and the guy who starred with Fonda in They shoot horses .. were all very good looking and had sex appeal ! Bruce Dern wasn't and didn't ! That's why he didn't get leading roles !

You know Bruce Dern is still ALIVE !!! WTF !! Just looked it up on Wiki !

Best in the business

Tip toe scene in cowboys is real great acting i remember it still was so scary watching it as a boy that

His daughter laura is a great actress too

No drinking or smoking like most on the show

No drinking or smoking like most on the show

He may not have Redford looks but he is a better actor

He should have gotten a Oscar for the cowboys

18:00 peak liberal, “Rosco Lee Brown wasn’t as upset as I thought he should be”

He was a actor who didn't mind what he play at.made him great

Always said very underrated. Very good at light comedy also

My favorite role of his is Joe Danby in "Support Your Local Sheriff". He's hilarious

I love Bruce Dern and always will

Bruce blows away all of the other actors he mentioned that became stars before him. I can see moments when they are acting or are self conscious but I can never catch Bruce acting. And he also has more fire and emotions then the others. .

I loved his quirky role in Hitchcock's 'Family Plot.'

Still stiff necked they still are!!! His followers do not believe, WHY …pride!!!

He was never a leading man. He had a character actors face. As hard to accept as itvis, his ambition was not in line with his looks

So funny in support your local sherif with james Gardner

Probably the best interview Cavett ever did because Dern was captivating.
