Correct. The KING of late night. No, that is wrong. I don't consider a late night show has been on since. Everyone is a joke with maybe the exception of O'Brien. But even he is light years away from Carson.
When it clicks, it clicks. This interview shows just how good chemistry can be between two people. Johnny and Kevin both killed this interview. Especially loved the part about how the customer is NOT always right.
Kevin makes some of the most beautiful movies. Dances With Wolves was a masterpiece; so was Field of Dreams. I think he's a brilliant actor and a very sexy man. This interview reveals he's also very kind and decent as well. Go Kevin!
What a film "Dances with Wolves" was! It got nominated for twelve Academy Awards, winning seven of them, including wins in the all-important Best Picture and Best Director categories.
For those out there to young to experience Johnny just imagine a time with zero social media and of course no cell phones! You worked or whatever you did during the day and when the day turned to late evening you settled into a comfortable spot and let Johnny guide you to happy content sleep...it was an amazingly simpler time 🤩😍
One of my favorite movie’s of all time; Dances with Wolves. I met Kevin Costner a few years ago near Park City, Utah, a fluke while on a trip paid for by my employer. I wish I had the mindset to tell him how much I loved this movie and how it stays with me till this day. Such a nice man.
I was managing a movie theater at the time and I remember when it was released on Friday, November 9, 1990 the film reels came in late from Los Angeles. The projectionist scrambled to put all the reels together but it was a challenge because of the large number of reels because the movie was 3 hours long! Because it was 3 hours long we were only able to have 3 showings per day per theater. It sold out for months though!
love Johnny Carson he was always great but Kevin Costner dances with wolves my top five movies I've watched that movie so many times and almost believed it like I almost lived it I felt it it was it was impressive
God, I miss Johnny. I grew up with him on at night. For a while I thought he'd last forever. And Dances With Wolves is as American to me as a bald eagle or Old Glory. Kevin Costner is one of Hollywood's best and has been for 35 years.
It was my mother’s favorite show, even tho she taught school , had to get up early, always made time for Johnny Carson!!! I watch his reruns & laugh my butt off now & remember watching it as a youngster! The animal scenes are hillarious!!!
I miss Carson. I discovered him in the fall of 1965 when at the age of 12 I was asked to babysit a couple of kids two houses away. Only five stations I recall in the L.A. area at the time. Turning the channels I ran across him at 11:30 as I was able to stay up late and recognized a guest so I watched. Continued watching till the day he retired. Now I have to watch him on my video collection.
This is Really Interesting....never knew Kevin and Johnny Carson crossed paths...I used to watch and I know he retired in the early 90s. But this is Great!
I remember watching him in Silverado when it first came out, not knowing who he was, and thinking: "That guy's gonna be a star." And it's not like I'm some wise talent scout who can spot talent.
I rode and had my horse in training at a ranch where one of “Dances with Wolves” stuntmen/wrangler had his horses and cattle. All the PBR bull riders, Hollywood stuntmen and actors used to come rope and ride there. Next door was his brother’s ranch-he was head wrangler and stunt double for Kevin Costner for “Dances With Wolves” (his name was Norman Howell). After the movie was finished shooting, Norm brought home one of the buffalo to live on his ranch. Occasionally the buffalo would get loose and run through the neighborhood and get the horses all worked up.
Kevin let a friend stay on his couch. His friend was working on a screen play for a movie he was writing. He kept losing jobs that Kevin got for him. Kevin kicked him out. His friend begged him to read the screen play he had written not long after he was kicked out. Kevin...finally...reluctantly..read the script. It was for Dances With Wolves.
I met Kevin in Nashville one night and talked with him for about 20 minutes and that is exactly the way he described to me about how Dances With Wolves came into being.
"Political bias hacks"... Kinda necessary to take sides, when one party's gone full fascist theocracy mad and tried a coup and to murder members of the other, reasonable party that was voted in government after the fascist party and their fuhrer lost, but maintained they didn't, which has been proven to be one of their million lies to the public. What side you are on, is suggested by your comment.
@@cheri7054 Johnny's jokes were even-handed, funny because of the situation not the politics and he was never mean. He was friends with Democrats and Republicans.
@@cheri7054 - Wrong answer. Today's late night "talk show" hosts are nothing but full of vitriol and hate and just one way (anyone who is not a Democrat). Johnny and to an extent even Letterman and Leno were much more light hearted about politics, and to all of their credits, made fun of both major political party politicians on an even handed basis - and there was no hate when they did so. Not so in this day and age.
@@Nfarce This media is actually controlled by Repubs. You look at all the major networks and they slant right. We need Dem voices t quiet the chaos from far right Maga's
Kevin Costner is a national treasure! The thing is , he doesn’t seem to know it, which is super cool. Such a regular guy, the kind you want to just have over for dinner…and make no big deal out of it. PLUS….not hard to look at either. 😉
@@KevinCostner-lr1sp Let's see what can I share about my life with the World. I was born in Colombia a very Green and Beautiful Country. The weather is unreal Cool to Cold at night all year long.We have many people in Colombia from Europe. My Grandfather was German left Germany and lived in Colombia until 91yrs old he went to Heaven. My Grandma Colombian saw the Movie or Read the Book Gone with the Wind and went to America after leaving my Grandfather in Colombia she took my Mom with her and put her in School and told my Grandfather to send them money My Mom was in School in America. So My Mom would come and go from Florida to Colombia and one day she met my Dad a Colombian and they went to Europe and Got Married & created me in Amsterdam but came back to Colombia to give Birth to me.The video below shows me as a Wife & Mommy & Friend & Daughter. Now God showed me its Kevin M. Costner that is my New Husband to have and to hold & feed & give drinks & keep him HAPPY 😇💗😇.
My daughter (age 20 at the time) was an Extra on the film Black and White, from 2013, which starred Costner. While it was filming, I asked her if anybody famous was in the movie. She very excitedly replied, "Octavia Spenser, from The Help! She's great, blah blah blah,,,," Anybody else? "Some old guy. Everybody called him Kevin. He even told the extras to call him Kevin" It was Costner-a genuine nice guy even with kids who just thought he was an "old guy."
Having Kevin Costner on The Tonight Show with Carson to talk about Dances With Wolves makes you realize how long ago that movie really was. Carson would go on to retire less than 2 years later in May of 1992 after 30 years as host. I was a junior in high school and let's just say that movie made for the perfect date.
@@KevinCostner-lr1sp 😍Baby lol what a Suprise lol I Love You 😘🥰 Your very welcome. Sebation sends his Love to you and Bobby lol we need a play date lol omg.
@@KevinCostner-lr1sp Lol you know where I'm at lol Colombia. You know I was raised in Florida from 4yrs to 43yrs and my Birthday is coming up June 11th I'll be 49 but still feel like 10 lol and sometimes a Baby but I'm a Mom to an American Big Baby and you are my Husband because we both are Aries in the 7th of Marriage and Courts and so we should know everything about our Spouse and me having Jupiter in Aries with Mars also it tells me that my Husband is Huge know all over the World, so thats you and I am attracted to you and I want you. Our Sex in the 8th is Taurus and as a Colombian I am Jupiter Taurus. So I promise we would laugh alot and be nice to each other and be protective and safe of each other and our 8 children and Grandchildren and Homes and Properties for everything comes to us threw Scorpio energy. Okay that energy changes and transforms and takes a long time and comes out of darkness and surprise. But Our Marriage is Aries and Aries is Fast and Now and about Self defense and protective and emergencies and 1st and now and stop and start and new.
I think so. I see many young people feeling nostalgic for a time before they were even born. They buy vinyl records and always comment on home movies of life in the 80’s and early 90’, talking about how everyone seemed happier and were having human interactions with no cellphones. They even say the music was better. I always agree with them, because it was. I’m sure every generation says that, though.
Then he did Robin Hood, JFK, and The Bodyguard which were the last of his blockbusters. In fact, as a lead actor he never had another box office smash.

And if you’d like a real wake up… Watch the movie that he made called “The Postman.” If you’re trying to figure out what’s going on in the world today and in America, watch this film, write down to his character naming a town “Elvis, Oregon.”
