Harrison Ford chats to Barry Norman about his rise from obscure television actor to Hollywood superstar - an 'overnight success' story, that in fact took nearly 15 years.
He discusses acting in effects-laden blockbusters like Star Wars and Indiana Jones versus more dramatic roles like his current film, Witness. He claims that he will never make another Star Wars movie, and that the next Indiana Jones film - The Last Crusade - will likely be the last time he dons the iconic whip and fedora.
Originally broadcast 21 May, 1985.

Ford: "One more Indiana Jones." Also Ford, 40 years later: "The final Indiana Jones." (And I really liked this one, so haters not welcome.) Seriously though, this guy was king of the box office for 20+ years - 1977 to about 2000. One of the most spectacular runs of quality blockbuster films ever.

A great interview. There is a kind of stillness and realness to these older interviews that has been lost in interviews of today.

they don't care about deep answers anymore, it's all about jimmy fallon fake laughing like an idiot, brain dead "jokes" and kimmel and colbert pushing their political agendas

The first time you see Harrison Ford being interviewed is a bit of a surprise as he appears to show little enthusiasm and is just super cool. At least you get the idea that he is probably being himself than acting all hyper to promote a movie. It must be difficult being the interviewer but I guess his reputation is well known.

@MaheshWalatara 2 месяца назад

The third movie he forgot was probably Force 10 from Navarone.

@TheSpookyDuke Год назад

Blade Runner is one of the best films in history and noone mentions it per se in these 80s interviews with Harrison. That film was hugely underrated and misunderstood for a very long time.

@davidjoe3368 Год назад

Actually, IMO, that was Rutger Hauer's Movie, but yes Harrison Ford was the leading man, and fantastic as always in that Film.

@LookatmeimSandraDee 2 года назад

I think he was a cameraman at one time, late 60s , he was assistant filmaker on the road with The Doors at that time.

@thatwastheweekthatwaswasit1707 2 года назад

1985 - No more Star Wars. That chapter is finished. Just one more Indiana Jones. That's enough. 2022- I did another Blade Runner as well.

@TurfShifter 2 года назад

He's a hard man to interview but telling him he gets overwhelmed by special effects was a bit awkward. The only person I've seen get a decent interview out of him is Graham Norton as Harrison seemed to enjoy the experience.

@cheesofile666 Год назад

Hah! Interesting to see how reserved and modest he was, even at the peak of his career.

@DyenamicFilms 2 года назад

It's interesting that he felt an actual acting job would lead him nowhere as an actor and opted to do carpentry, which to me, I would also think would lead you nowhere in the acting world, but, if I'm not mistaken, it was him taking up carpentry that actually led him to where he is today. You just never know where your decisions will lead you.

@michalisterpandros6017 Год назад

He meant an uninteresting role in a television series. He feared that everyone would only start seeing him as “that guy from this series.” So he wouldn’t get offered interesting roles in movies.

@squamish4244 Год назад

Yeah, he just happened to be doing carpentry for a certain someone.

@dominokid7996 7 месяцев назад

Harrison is so spot on , people don’t go cinema to watch special effects, they go for human emotional connections with the characters they are watching . The last big budget movie to do that was Gladiator/ titanic . The rest are mostly special effects bonanzas

@anomalyinc3239 5 месяцев назад

the fact that people went to see Episode 1-3 on mass aswell as Avatar proves his statement too so I dunno wtf you're talking about the fact that people went to see those movies too proves his point, if it's just special effects the movie goes nowhere

@californio1850 2 года назад

I'm surprised to see his hair was thinning here. He must have gotten a hair transplant at some point

@Rose24681 7 месяцев назад

Harrison Ford is completely right and I avoid movies that have an overwhelming amount of special effects for the exact reason Harrison Ford gave and so clearly explained.

@keaton718 Год назад

A lot of actors would be offended by suggesting they were overwhelmed by action or effects when that's not what they meant. Ford clearly has his ego in check.

@haydnevans2978 2 года назад

Interviewer has a slightly insulting undertone to the words used in his questioning. Thought Harrison handled it with great 'cool' observation.

@MrSimonmcc 2 года назад

That's Barry Norman. He was an honest critic but had quite an annoying style. Gets to the point though.

@haydnevans2978 2 года назад

@@MrSimonmcc I see, I can barley remember him. I find him quite hard to interpret, as in, is he just asking or trying to jibe/snyde. I feel his point is Harrison is overrated and not good, but he doesn't quite say it. Don't think I would enjoy many of his interviews if he was always like that.

@alexandercummins 2 года назад

Many people today are used to the sycophantic interviewing styles of Jimmy Fallon, or James Corden and others like them. Its more about hero worship than an actual interview. Barry Norman asks sincere questions with no political motive's. I personally dont see a problem.

@haydnevans2978 2 года назад

@@alexandercummins yeah I'm not much a fan of Jimmy Fallon or James Corden, very phony. That's not to say I dislike them, but I wouldn't watch them, same as Barry Norman, I don't dislike him. Genuine intelligent objective questions are what we need. Norman is alluding to something, trying to say something but without asking it. I find that a bit rude, why didn't Norman just call out the elephant in the room and ask Harrison Ford himself if he thought he was overrated, instead of beating around the bush. That's fine, its good everyone has a different preference, its when people pretend to like things just to follow the crowd its a bad thing. Case in point would be your Jimmy Fallon and James Corden example. Good chat Sir.

Bring that famous must be a huge burden for him . However you can’t say you enjoy being an actor in blockbuster films and then turn around and say I don’t enjoy being a celebrity. They have always gone hand in hand. And anyway who actually enjoys working!? I don’t anyone who enjoys working?!? Is he nuts ?
