I was on the set of History of The World Part I. Filmed at Hollywood Center studios. I watched Mel show Dom how he wanted Dom to pee in the scene. It was a scream.
At this juncture in Johnny's career , he was not suffering from breathing problems. I believe he had stopped smoking by this time and his lungs were generating new pink tissue. Later on in his post Tonight Show existence, he started developing COPD symptoms from all accounts.
Crazy, time keeps on slippin slippin slippin into the future... watching two men, that are both passed now, talking about not wanting to die but knowing it will come someday. I’m presently in the year 2020, I wonder who you are, that’s reading this in the future, reading my post about two guys that have passed away that are talking about not wanting to die and possibly by now I have passed away? Hello from the passed!! RU-vid... the internet time machine.
Just incase no one else has seen "Fatso" I will say that it is a wonderful movie!! Ron Carey is also in it acting as Dom's little brother. Anne Bancroft produced, and I believe, directed it. A wonderful man who is overweight and his obese cousin dies. The wonderful Italian family (whose main focus is on food) all think he needs to lose weight. He tries and tries. In all very funny ways he tries. He hopes to lose enough so he can find a girlfriend and get married. The rest is up to you to watch the movie. I will also state that this movie really does show that Dom Deluise did truly have some acting chops. The way he handles some emotional but very sincere scenes is just wonderful. If you can find it, the movie is worth investing in for time and money. He was really a very wonderful man and truly missed.
_"And ya see a bunch of guys come towards ya..."_ 11:58 - 12:16 ... He's right. That's how you do it. It's the individual crazy guy you have to keep your eyes on.
Ill always love his voice acting work because that "scaredy cat" persona reminds me so much of a Mexican comedy actor "Capulina" whose character was just like that RIP to geniuses of comedy
There are very few people who have a natural voice that can do so much but Dom Deluise was one of those people, absolutely full of positivity and joy, RIP Dom
Good to see Angie also. She doesn't seem remembered so often. She was a real babe and just a good an actress. She had some great roles and did them well.
Dom DeLuise was so sweet, kind and inclusive. He did not need to be interrupted with Johnny's sarcasm, put-downs and general negativity. Actually Dom could be a one-man show. So Johnny should have just relaxed
Johnny had class and so did his guests. There are no late night shows now I can even stomach. I used to enjoy Conan until it became the kiss Obama's ass hate Trump show.
I wouldn’t go that far. Conan took a good amount of shots at Obama as well. Unlike that ass licker Stephen Colbert. Comedy works, for me at least, when you take shots at all sides. I still do enjoy Conan he’s too nostalgic for me to quit on him
Dom Deluise was WAY ahead of his time. Years before the food network, if he was around today, he would outshine them all. Especially dick Gordan. The only thing I don't understand is how does one sit at home with their ass up their ass. Anyone know?
