This is probably my favorite episode of this series that you did. I always saw Harry in movies, found him so fascinating, and this only made him even more fascinating. I’m so happy you’re posting these vids back up.
I grew up watching this man. And if he was in a movie I was watching or if I knew he was in something I intended to watch, he was the guy I focused on! There just isn't enough words out there to describe this man's presence in film. He was the best there ever was!
Whats surprising is if your listening Harry tells us who he became AFTER the battle if Okinawa where he saw and faced death everyday for 80 + days . After hearing that for me life will never hold the value it once had and living in the moment is what us the saving grace in it all ! Thanks Harry ! ❤️
The scene where Travis tells the story to Jane behind the two way mirror had me in tears,it’s the explanation for everything we’ve seen up to that point and is so beautifully acted and shot and makes it the ultimate Harry Dean Stanton scene as well as being his ultimate movie.
The character actor to end all character actors, I've binged this whole great series for the last three days and saved him for last; cause Harry Dean Stanton typifies everything great about a damn good supporting actor; He wasn't handsome or flashy, worked in a wide range of genes and movie quality but he ALWAYS delivered a great performance and lifted the world of the movie just from being in it and the few times he was the lead, like in Paris, Texas his performance is so real and textured I could hardly breath watching him. Also he never tried to be cool and thusly was one of the coolest people to ever live. The world is lesser without him in it.
Bless this series for coming back. These are all gems of youtube content and even tho ive watched them before all the effort you put in does not go unnoticed
Ok. He talks about the turning point being, 'Alien', in the '80s. The dude was 60 years old! If I had to wait that long for my turning point.....😝 Thank you for clips of his great middle career. Boggles the mind that producers, directors, casting dir. couldn't see his talent. HDS always brought his best.
A REALLY GOOD WATCH. Only just seeing this now, not even finished watching it yet but I am compleled to comment on how good it is and how much I'm enjoying it.. Good job.
I always liked his roles... especially in the movie "The Straight Story"... he only appeared in the closing scene, but his part and presence were perfect. RIP Harry
To know more about Harry Dean Stanton and his personal life? Good luck! However, his very last film was probably the most truest as to who he was. Watch his final film called "Lucky".
My friend, could you help me? I thought in the age of the internet, I could find out anything. But, I am trying to find a movie with Harry that I only got to see 10 minutes of. However, with every passing moment caused greater and greater laughter until I couldn't breathe. Then I had to leave. It was on TV about 40 years ago. Harry had a cowboy hat on, he was 40-50 years old. There was a woman's chorus singing in it, and he was looking at this guy pulling something out of a bag or suitcase. With every passing item, Harry would ask, "What the hell?". And this went on for 10 minutes and just struck me where it hurts. I believe they even showed the women singing just before. I've been trying to find this out for many years. Thank you.
It's OK!! I wrote down the movies Lynch had done and looked them up! It is the Cowboy and the Frenchmen! Though the "What the hell?" part didn't last as long as I thought, that part was on you tube. At least I know now thanks to this documentary. Thank you!
Wow, great video! The first thing I remember seeing him in was Pretty in Pink. This is my favorite series on youtube at the moment keep up the great work!
Love the video and videos on the channel ,but was there no mention of him in Christine? That was the movie that he was in that stuck out the most to me
when you did a video on Roberts Blossom why did you not bring up his role in The Last Temptation of Christ was his role to small or did i miss that in your video
He was good friends w/ Hunter S Thompson. I remember during an interview he talked about how upset he was that he wasn't give the chance to play his harmonica & sing "Danny Boy" during the service. Not exactly sure, but it sounded like he was under the impression that he wld have a chunk of time set 4 him to perform, & it didn't happen. You cld see it still bothered him, & he wound up doing it right then during the interview.
Harry Dean Stanton, Warren Oates, Dean Stockwell and others..... way, way underrated, great actors. Todays movies don't have the quality of character actors. Gene Hackman was the greatest character actor of all time. They make movies great, and they don't get number one credit.
