Alan Cumming speaks with Anthony Mason about his new memoir, "Baggage: Tales from a Fully Packed Life," which details his wide-ranging career in Hollywood. He tells Mason how his work on the stage and the screen "saved" him, as he navigated divorce, a nervous breakdown at 28, and worked through trauma from his childhood.

He’s one of those people you’d just love to sit with, in a cozy room, and listen to him tell stories for hours and hours. I adore him,

He is the best guest on Graham Norton & Seth

Phenomenal performer, and a really sweet man, too.

Speaking of Hollywood saving him, he saved me after this interview! It’s been an incredible journey this past year after catching this interview! What an amazing and talented man. He makes it ok to not be ok, sometimes! Whenever I need a therapeutic recharge , I pop Baggage on my headphones and chill! I simply adore him on so many levels! 💙💙💙

I loved "Not My Father's Son," his previous memoir. Thanks for this interview.

His book "Not My Father's Son" covers a lot of his early years. It's worth a read - or better yet, a listen because he reads the audiobook version himself.

I came into the comments to post this.

One of the best character actors. Everything from Boris Grishenko to Gazoo, he's always so entertaining and brings wit and emotion to every role. I loved his series Instinct, it's a shame it only lasted 2 seasons.

I thought for a bit CBS did Anthony Mason dirty but seeing his segments recently, he is in the right place.

@michaeld.williamsiii9026 2 года назад

Such a talented man.💙 I’ve liked him since my teens and still now in my early thirties I still like him.🙃🤘🏾✨

A friend of mine saw Cummings on Broadway in Cabaret one night and lived it so much she went back the next night.

@lynneddy6551 2 года назад

Loved it. This needs an edit function!

@lauriefieldman8221 2 года назад

“Cancel and continue.” Fantastic reframing to keep going through ~With a smile and lightness ~ thank you, Alan!

His humility is what gets me. I watched his more recent interview for the "Traitors" where he commented that a quarter million dollars is A LOT. Most Hollywood celebrities aren't that grounded.

@maikelfm9520 2 года назад

I love his voice.

@maksimnikiforovski2034 2 года назад

Great interview! I loved him in "The Good Wife" as Eli Gold!

@karyherndon4266 2 года назад

Good reporting job. Years ago, my son and I saw Alan Cummings in a movie, where he was so funny and outrageous. I had no idea he was Scottish, though! He’s got such latitude in acting. Thank you for this interview. From southern Colorado!!

@claudiaraffo9340 2 года назад

I am totally and fully in love with his talent, his accent and his attitude of life. All my respect for his ability to overcome such hardships. Has the pleasure of seeing him in Cabaret and I was amazed at his talent needless to say his range. (Santiago, Chile, South America)

Alan Cummings defines multi-talented!

@mauricepowers3804 2 года назад

I simply adore this man!!!

@rebeccamccoy2346 2 года назад

I saw him live in Cabaret and he is fabulous.

@valmacclinchy 2 года назад

He was absolutely mind-blowing in that show. Incredible. And such a humble guy, too.

@EricaGamet 2 года назад

I first saw him in Romy and Michelle... then in Bond... I was surprised when I finally heard his real accent! He seems like an amazing person. See him in Schmigadoon, if you get the chance!

@pam0626 2 года назад

I loved his cameo in Sex & The City. He is so talented, funny and a natural scene stealer.

@laurenolshan4565 2 года назад

What a beautiful interview of a raw and authentic artist. Great emotion. Listening and not bombardment of questions. I could learn a lot about conversation from Anthony Mason.

@vegetariansuniteworldwide8091 2 года назад

He is one actor I would love to meet! He is gorgeous and so talented! Road trip to his bar!

@billsgotmedointhis 2 года назад

He's so underrated and I loved him in Romy and Michelle's High School Reunion but pretty much anything he does and he does a damn good American accent lol

@andrearenee7845 2 года назад

I absolutely love his work. Such a talent... Beautiful soul. Angry, out of control ego maniac directors are toxic 4 sure. And there is way too many of them.

@2legit64 2 года назад

Is anyone else thinking that Anthony Mason is living his best life right now? I was pretty bummed about him leaving "CBS This Morning," but I think that interviewing artists is his real passion.

@cityhawk 2 года назад

I could see Alan playing Eric Idle in a movie.

@NijimaSan 2 года назад

Sucks to hear his experience was so bad on X2. He was one of the superior things about that movie.

@angelaholmes8888 2 года назад

Yeah he was love him in x2

Besides his versitle brilliance which is incomparable, he is postively delughtful.

God, he’s just adorable.

Childhood trauma… it’s a killer.

@AshleyOliviaDaCosta 2 года назад

Amazing how dead-on that New York observer quote was! 🍾🥂 I don’t think I would have had that foresight in 1998.

I ❤ Alan Cummings...🥰😍🤩!!!

@catsinhouse 2 года назад

The book was just excellent in every way - hard to put down as was his book "Not My Father's Son" - tragic, funny, sweet, perceptive, and very, very honest.

@angelaholmes8888 2 года назад

Just finished reading baggage I really enjoyed it just like I did with not my father son

@angelaholmes8888 2 года назад

Alan is so right I had the same thing happening to me when I was 14 years old I started remembering the sexual abuse I suffered when I was 5 years old and I still get triggered having flashbacks I also grew up with an emotional abusive father
