CABARET....where is Cabaret? That's the most Iconic performance in my mind ever. I haven't even seen any of those other movies, literally. Love you Alan!
@@DorianCairne Imo the first film is still amazing, but the sequels... Not so much. Except of course for his too-brief appearances in both of them. (I *still* ship Floop with Minion!)
I know this is for his film and tv characters but his most iconic character will always be the Emcee in the Cabaret revival. He made that character his own.
Agreed. I saw him on during Caberet’s last run on Broadway and I have never seen anybody so perfect for a role. Maybe my favorite onstage performance I’ve ever seen.
I believe Alan is one of the greatest underrated and appreciated humans on the Hollywood wheel. I just adore him immensely. He’s in so many of my favorite films and I wish him happiness and content with his life 🥰🥰🥰
I skimmed through and I thought they weren't going to talk about it. Josie and the Pussycats is the film I grew up with (totally forgot that he was in Spy Kids).
People misunderstood the real message. They saw the first layer thinking it was a big commercial in movie form, but none of these companies actually sponsored the movie to be in that. The music is awesome, pop culture references and killer jokes and one liners, and all the actors are bomb. I'll always love this movie!
Probably the most iconically eclectic filmography in film history, and such a lovely guy. I grew up with him as Floop, was surprised by him as Elton, and then absolutely fell in love with him as Eli.
GreekAndEgyptian i know!! like that show had such a fantastic extended cast and he still stood out as exceptional? this is why i don’t trust award shows
WHAT?!? He was the VOICE OF BLACK BEAUTY?!?!? MY MIND IS BLOWN I NEVER KNEW! I watched that all the time and didn't know... I didn't look it up. Like I was a kid and stuff.
His character development in The Good Wife is great. I don't know how much it was because of the writing, and how much he contributed, but somehow I have a feeling his performance was the driving force of supporting character rising to par with leading characters.
tbh i liked his role in that, the movie sucked but I liked his loki. Loki is my fav norse god, I enjoy the gods of micschief best cuz they have some cool/wacky stories that really play with the opulence of what gods are like.
I know he's a massive Hollywood star and he always deserved to be but please check out the short lived Scottish sitcom he wrote and starred in with Forbes Masson in the 90s. "The High Life" about 2 air stewards. Totally off the wall hilarious.
He was hilarious in it! I used to sing the theme tune all the time - "If you're feeling kinda tedious and life is seriously mediocre, here's how to get that adrenaline flowing, just get aboard a Boeing going high..."
He is probably sick to death of that role between the original production he was in and it’s revival. Although I could watch him in it or hear him talk about it all day long. It was a bold move for him to put such a drastic spin on such an iconic role. Joel Gray’s version is equally fantastic but is definitely his own. Vids I’ve seen of productions after Mr. Cummings have all seemed like copies of his take.
I swear I am getting my head spinning every time I'm hearing him of his accent because I've always heard about the American one so it's just feels a little weird to me
Yes !! That's also where I first saw AC. His character in that movie was such a creep !! So, I'm really glad I saw him in other projects and in interviews and such as he's so great. But I wish he spoke about Circle of Friends. It's always fun finding out movie tidbits.
@@armenianchik Minnie Driver is smokin... loved her in that movie The Loser with the American Pie guy... she was such a hottie and made me into alternative/rockish/gothy chicks for the first time as a young man......
Wish he would've talked about Circle of Friends. I know it was an Irish movie, but it was the first movie I ever saw him in and wow... such a great film! He played a real snake of a guy in it... such a great actor :)
For most of my life, I thought he was American. Then I heard him talk in an interview and thought "Oh he's Irish." Now I learn he's actually Scottish! 🤦♀️
@@muls9571 I usually do alright, his accent just escaped me. I think it's because he's a very quiet/gentle speaker and I've only watched a few interviews were he's using his real voice.
I love Mr Alan Cummings movies. My favorite is "Sweet Land". I just finished reading his book, I couldn't put it down. I cried and cried at the cruelty of his father and at the death of his grandfather. Thank you for sharing your story.
I’ve always adored Alan, his films have always been a part of my life. I grew up with films like Black Beauty, Buddy and Spice World. And of course later on came Romy & Michele’s, Spy Kids and Josie and the pussycats. He’s absolute perfection!
I was a little old for spy kids, but when I saw Alan in it I thought that was the perfect role for him. He needs room to be his outrageously funny self.
Spice World was the very first movie I bought on VHS, *memories* ! Oh man, I really need to watch Romy and Michelle again. Such a great movie! Such a great man!
Aldair Reynoso it’s so sad, I know it’s not a great movie but I loved him in it, it was the first movie my brother and I watched in English and understood completely, so I’m very fond of it. Anyways all his movies are great to me
Brenda Jaz hey I'm right there with you guys man, i actually owned the dvd as a kid, I didn't really realize it wasn't a good movie but I'd be lying to you if I told I didn't watch it everyday as a kid. I enjoyed it so much regardless.
lowkey only watched this because Spy Kids was iconic and I rewatch them all like once a year. spy kids is easily one of the best kids films ever in my opinion
Alan is the perfect example of an amazing human being. He's intelligent, funny, super talented and a really nice guy. I wish I'll be able to have a chat with him one day! :)
They missed Plunkett and MacLean, Reefer Madness The Musical and the Anniversary Party (some of my faves). Alan is someone who I've grown up watching and just love through and through. This helped me connect the dots and remember why I love him so. He speaks about his human/artistic experience not the glitz and glam. Both Tommy's Tale and Not My Father's son are among my favorite novels too. And he's silver fox daddy hot now. I'll be back in 20 years darling. ❤✨
Yeah when he brought it up I was surprised. I totally forgot the movie existed. I had it on VHS when I was a kid. I don't even really remember it that well. I just remember the alien part was weird. 😂
I remember when he was cast as Nightcrawler and insinuated in an interview that he was just doing it for the money because he didn't know anything about the comics. There was a huge backlash of fans saying he shouldn't be allowed to play him because he had no connection to the character. Then lo and behold, he was the best thing in that film. He was just amazing in that role, and I've always appreciated how he never half-asses anything he does, no matter what reason he takes the role.
i feel so happy after hearing him talk about spy kids. of course, i've seen a couple of his other works and he's an incredible actor but spy kids is indeed a huge part of my childhood. spy kids three was my very first 3d movie, i remember watching it in the cinema and how alan's character would tell us to wear our paper one red one blue-colored glasses at some parts of the film.
Lovvvve this guy sooo much, had a "Weird" crush on him when I was younger that I still kinda have to this day! Also have you heard the man sing? Ugh, I just melt!
Yessss they covered Josie and the Pussycats!! 🥰🥰🥰 That and Floop are the characters I identify with him the most.. BUT the one character they didn't bring up that I wish they did was Billy Blaikie on The L Word. I always found that character to be interesting and memorable.
CABARET....where is Cabaret? That's the most Iconic performance in my mind ever. I haven't even seen any of those other movies, literally. Love you Alan!
You haven’t seen Goldeneye?
That’s on you
That is theater not film… to say you haven’t seen James Bond movies or the X-Men trilogy is totally bogus.
@@SPFLDAngler Nothing in the video, title, or description says it's specific to film and not theater.
If you love him, i recommend you watch these movies.
That X2 nightcrawler opening is still one of the best openings in a superhero movie, period
He honestly made it the best movie in the series
@@Karin-fj3eu agreed, the emotion he brought to the character, you could really feel his pain
Totally agree honestly I think it is the best scene in ALL the XMen films.
1. Nightcrawler's opening
2. Quicksilver's Time in a Bottle Scene
@@Who-Am-I... the scene where quicksilver shows up at x manor is pretty choice too lol
Spoilers
we stan an icon
the fact that he actually likes spy kids made my young heart soar
*Fly free young flooper*
loved him in this movie ❤️❤️❤️
That's so cool. Most of that film did not age well, but his Floop performance is a bright spot.
@@DorianCairne Imo the first film is still amazing, but the sequels... Not so much. Except of course for his too-brief appearances in both of them. (I *still* ship Floop with Minion!)
“We stan an icon”?? What does that even mean?..
Spy kids came out when I was 10, Floop was one of my first crushes.
Kimmy G I finally feel I’m not alone. Same.
Mine too...
I was JUST watching Spy Kids last night and my boyfriend judged me for my crush on him hahaha. THANK YOU FOR SHARING MY FEELINGS 😂😂😂
Yup Floop is everything
i feel your comment in my bones
I know this is for his film and tv characters but his most iconic character will always be the Emcee in the Cabaret revival. He made that character his own.
Katie and he kept going back to it for decades. He loved that role
I agree Katie
Katie iconic 💕💕💕
Katie 100% The real reason I love Cabaret is because of his stunning performance
Yes! My favorite Broadway show and performance, ever.
I love that he stood up to Stanley Kubrick directly with, _"Yeah, that's cause I'm an actor, Stanley."_ Brilliant!
This :D
So uh...I know it's a theatre role, but Cabaret is mighty iconic if you ask me.
Bob Guy thank you! I’d watch a 30 min video of him talking about Cabaret!
Agreed. I saw him on during Caberet’s last run on Broadway and I have never seen anybody so perfect for a role. Maybe my favorite onstage performance I’ve ever seen.
I was wondering why the didn't put it in :(
Shia LeBeouf also thought it was mighty iconic
@@ginao6810 I'd watch a documentary about the whole production tbh. I think that's something that really needs to be made.
"I can't do that, I'm Mr Floop" LOL DEAD. Only legends can say that
Laura Oh 19:09 😁
Laura Oh I was about to make a comment about that lol it was hilarious
Lol.
Really wish Floop got his own spin off movie
I want a video of him and Tan France just shopping and chatting
I could listen to a podcast with people with this kind of accent all day every day no matter what they're talking about lmfao
Can David Tennant be there too?
I want to see him and tim roth in the same film. I thought this guy was tim roth otherwise I wouldnt have even clicked on the vid.
Omfg yes!
So glad I wasn’t the only one to see the similarities.
“And I was a ‘bond boy’..... because I had shorts.”
please tell me I'm not the only one who didn't know he is Scottish
Explains his unfortunate last name.
You’re really not
he hides it well, Scottish is a thick harsh deep accent, and it can be hard to mask, yet he does it well.
@@azadalamiq he can do accents so well. When he did Cabaret on Broadway in '99 I was blown away by his portrayal of the Emcee.
Melissa I knew... but I forget, and his accent throws me off each time
I believe Alan is one of the greatest underrated and appreciated humans on the Hollywood wheel. I just adore him immensely. He’s in so many of my favorite films and I wish him happiness and content with his life 🥰🥰🥰
Josie and the Pussycats is a classic! seriously underrated. But he will always be the MC for me. Loved him in Cabaret.
I skimmed through and I thought they weren't going to talk about it. Josie and the Pussycats is the film I grew up with (totally forgot that he was in Spy Kids).
Was just about to say.
People misunderstood the real message. They saw the first layer thinking it was a big commercial in movie form, but none of these companies actually sponsored the movie to be in that. The music is awesome, pop culture references and killer jokes and one liners, and all the actors are bomb. I'll always love this movie!
The highlight of this interview: I AM INVINICBLE!!
Probably the most iconically eclectic filmography in film history, and such a lovely guy. I grew up with him as Floop, was surprised by him as Elton, and then absolutely fell in love with him as Eli.
His role in Spy Kids is so iconic! I am one of those kids who would shyly approach him about this character
i've never heard his natural voice and accent and i feel like i'm tripping
the fact he never won an emmy for the good wife 😤 the greatest robbery of our time and it happened right before our eyes
Charlotte Heath DAYLIGHT ROBBERY
He was brilliant in that. 💕🇨🇦
Ashleigh Jaima Osborne he stole every single scene he was in AND with a flawless american accent? the world truly wasn’t ready
GreekAndEgyptian i know!! like that show had such a fantastic extended cast and he still stood out as exceptional? this is why i don’t trust award shows
um so we aren't going to talk about his iconic role in burlesque because I love that movie so much.
thank YOU! his "ay carumba" still haunts me to this day lmao
Yes! It is an Iconic part!
Omg Hes that guy, I didnt know
I wish they hadn’t cut his performance of “That’s Life.” It was so great. His voice is made of magic. 💕
THANK YOU!!!! I was really hoping that would be in the list. It's one of my favorite movies that he is in!
Romy and Michele and Josie and the Pussycats are both incredible bangers I'm glad they didn't ignore them.
Hey! :) What are "bangers?" I've never heard of that. And I agree, I'm glad they included those! :)
Jenn Hoff they’re just really fun and exciting!
@@MicoDossun Oh, ok! :) Just curious! :)
@@jennhoff03 It's an English expression. A banger is just a really good thing, or a sausage, depending on the context :-p.
ooooh
ROMIEnMichelle 👏
last scene iLIKE
WHAT?!? He was the VOICE OF BLACK BEAUTY?!?!? MY MIND IS BLOWN I NEVER KNEW! I watched that all the time and didn't know... I didn't look it up. Like I was a kid and stuff.
Joi Isak same here!
Exactly!!! I was a child & loved the 1994 film. Everyone I knew wondered why, but there was such a beautiful aspect to it that drew me(,:
His X-men scene was the coolest fight scene in X-men movie history imo
Also for it's time, the effects, transitioning, and choreography was amazing
I Remember seeing X men 2 in cinemas when I was 8 and the action was one of the best parts of the film.
Agreed
@@lukedaley17x2 and of future past I think had the best action scenes out of the whole franchise
Alan is one of my fave actors ever. He’s funny, amazing with accents and is a great character actor. He also has the most beautiful eyes.❤️
He also supports Scottish independence 👍 😊
His character development in The Good Wife is great. I don't know how much it was because of the writing, and how much he contributed, but somehow I have a feeling his performance was the driving force of supporting character rising to par with leading characters.
His interpretation of Emcee absolutely revolutionized the role and left an impact on the Cabaret franchise forever!!!!
He didn't talk about Son of the Mask. Although, could you blame him?
Or the fact he was the scarecrow in Tinman
"Some films I like and some films I really don't like " I took that as a sign
Son of the mask? Doesn't sound like anything to me....
tbh i liked his role in that, the movie sucked but I liked his loki. Loki is my fav norse god, I enjoy the gods of micschief best cuz they have some cool/wacky stories that really play with the opulence of what gods are like.
HE WAS THE FIRST LOKI
This guy was Tom Hiddleston before Tom Hiddleston.
Spot on!
The original Loki!!!
Pfft. Tom Hiddleston is nothing. He's just Swift's ex number 3482.
teppolundgren hey he’s more than that
@@remixdragon6156 Not really. One good role doesn't make him special.
Spy kids the best film never get bored watching it over and over
I need to watch it rn
Love the Spy Kids movies!
@DJ KO you are entitled to your wrong opinion.
I wouldn't say it's the best film but it's definitely fun to watch.
@@SayHelloHelli a
He is so versatile. I love watching for him when I see his name. I'm always floored by his performance.
The fact you guys got him to talk about his small role in Eyes Wide Shut is awesome.
I'm actually kind of upset he doesn't talk about the plot of it, or the "mysterious" way kubrick died
There's no small roles in a Stanley Kubrick film...
@@Bigburt- what was mysterious about kubricks death?
@@sammyblaze4234, he died. Everybody who worshipped him thought he was an immortal God.
I didn't know he was Nightcrawler but that introduction scene is still one of the best action sequences I've seen.
If he doesn’t say spy kids I don’t wanna hear it 🤔
(I’ve never got this many likes lol thanks)
I'm too lazy to whatch the whole thing. Did he said smth about spy kids?
ItzAndaTime 42 yeah he mentioned spy kids 🤣 he said it introduced him to a young audience
@@Yasunii well... he's not wrong
No Evolution 15:07 your welcome
Come on, it's arguably on his most iconic role of course he's going to mention SPY KIDS
Aww i wished he had talked about his role in Tin Man. That was a great miniseries and he played a really cool character in it.
I was on here just for that.
I loved The Good Wife completely because of him.
He was definitely the best character
Now I have to watch the show. I never got to watch it
You should watch his new series, INSTINCT.
Based on James Patterson's novel series.
him and josh charles yeah
Yes yes
I know he's a massive Hollywood star and he always deserved to be but please check out the short lived Scottish sitcom he wrote and starred in with Forbes Masson in the 90s. "The High Life" about 2 air stewards. Totally off the wall hilarious.
He was hilarious in it! I used to sing the theme tune all the time - "If you're feeling kinda tedious and life is seriously mediocre, here's how to get that adrenaline flowing, just get aboard a Boeing going high..."
So sad it doesn't get any media coverage! It's a great show and I love it. ❤️
One of my ultimate favourite shows
I can't find anywhere to watch it. 😢
I know it’s about his screen roles but he IS the Emcee in Cabaret. I wish he had talked about that.
He is probably sick to death of that role between the original production he was in and it’s revival. Although I could watch him in it or hear him talk about it all day long. It was a bold move for him to put such a drastic spin on such an iconic role. Joel Gray’s version is equally fantastic but is definitely his own. Vids I’ve seen of productions after Mr. Cummings have all seemed like copies of his take.
@@2Chickaboom2 he took the role to a new level of debauchery!
His brief discussion of working with Kubrick was all I thought it would be. Excellent.
Always loved this guy in all his quirky roles. He disguises that accent like no other Scot I've met as well 😂
I swear I am getting my head spinning every time I'm hearing him of his accent because I've always heard about the American one so it's just feels a little weird to me
John Barrowman is the only other one. When he speaks with his parents it's like wtf.
James mcavoy is amazing at hiding the accent and David tennet too!
I loved him on Good Wife. He was one of my favorite characters. I was so never ready to say goodbye to those characters.
Are you kidding??!! Circle of Friends is so underrated...it where AC played a baddie. First time I noticed him...Love that movie.
Yes !! That's also where I first saw AC. His character in that movie was such a creep !! So, I'm really glad I saw him in other projects and in interviews and such as he's so great. But I wish he spoke about Circle of Friends. It's always fun finding out movie tidbits.
I watched the video to hear what he had to say about Circle of Friends. :-(
Me too! That was the first time I noticed Alan Cummings and Minnie Driver!! And they were in Golden Eye together too!
Me too but then he blew me away in so much more Loved his book too!
@@armenianchik Minnie Driver is smokin... loved her in that movie The Loser with the American Pie guy... she was such a hottie and made me into alternative/rockish/gothy chicks for the first time as a young man......
He has such a pleasing voice! Gosh I know most of the comments are talking about his character in Spy Kids Floop but I love it!
Well I'd literally listen to him read the menu at Denny's for 8 hours.
I’d pay $5 a ticket just to hear him say “Moons Over MyHammy”
Word.
Hahaha, he does have a lovely accent..
If you haven’t already, you should listen to his autobiography audiobook! It’s really good, and you do get to listen to him for 8 hours!
His hotel clerk in Eyes Wide Shut is so dark and disturbing: I look forward to that scene everytime I watch the film.
He steals every scene he's in. Brilliant actor, and sweet guy, too.
Forgot he was in that. Been a while. Omg 😲 just saw a clip of him on Graham Norton & guess who's on the couch with him, Nicole Kidman!
Pretty sure he is the only man who got to hit on Tom Cruise on camera. It’s so good. Those eyebrows when he says “big guys.”
No 'Reefer Madness: The Musical?' Ah, an unsung masterpiece yet again!
He's FANTASTIC in it, go watch it this instant.
Same here! I am ENRRRRRAGED!)))
I agree, such an underrated cult classic and he's terrific in it. One of his best performances
Ah no! That's the entire reason I clicked on this video!!!
Me too! I love that movie.
Pass the torch and pitchfork!
Immensely talented. I watched The Good Wife because he was in it. Cabaret was meant for him. What a joy to see whatever he is in.
I introduced my niece to Spykids the other day.
Another generation of Spy Kids
His accent is God's way of saying, "you're welcome world"
You're pic says the same thing.
@@DCMarvelMultiverse hu?
@@StephanieStowers_stylist- you're profile pic says the same thing.
@@DCMarvelMultiverse oh...well thank you! *blush*
I love Alan Cummings, he's such a fantastic actor.
I’m sad he didn’t speak about Tin Man since he was easily the best part of that miniseries.
*PREACH*
YES!
To be fair that is a low bar...
YASSSS I still ship him and Glitch and Cain xD
IKR!? I was SO hoping they'd bring up Tin Man but they didn't!
Great actor. To me he will always be Boris, Floop and the OG Nightcrawler
Me too
I loved him as Rooster in Disney's remake of Annie in 1999.
David Beasley id forgotten that one ! But then the original with Tim curry is pretty darn good too
Yes! His song with Katy Bates was such a delight!
Yes!!! Him and Krisen Chenowich as Regis St. Claire were mesmerizing together!
Wish he would've talked about Circle of Friends. I know it was an Irish movie, but it was the first movie I ever saw him in and wow... such a great film! He played a real snake of a guy in it... such a great actor :)
For most of my life, I thought he was American. Then I heard him talk in an interview and thought "Oh he's Irish." Now I learn he's actually Scottish! 🤦♀️
American's can't differentiate British/Irish accents 🤦🏼♀️

meee!
Irish and Scots are really not all that similar.
Serious? 😂🤦♂️ Scottish is the most distinguishable accent after American
Floop is his best role without a doubt
nightcrawler says hi
You've clearly never seen Cabaret
loki was
i liked him when he played gazoo in the Flintstones
I love Mr Alan Cummings movies. My favorite is "Sweet Land". I just finished reading his book, I couldn't put it down. I cried and cried at the cruelty of his father and at the death of his grandfather. Thank you for sharing your story.
I’ve always adored Alan, his films have always been a part of my life. I grew up with films like Black Beauty, Buddy and Spice World. And of course later on came Romy & Michele’s, Spy Kids and Josie and the pussycats. He’s absolute perfection!
I love how Strange Magic was not even mentioned. It doesnt deserve it. but its my favorite role lol
This man would be my go to for style especially. Very sharp, without excess.
I was a little old for spy kids, but when I saw Alan in it I thought that was the perfect role for him. He needs room to be his outrageously funny self.
Spice World was the very first movie I bought on VHS, *memories* ! Oh man, I really need to watch Romy and Michelle again. Such a great movie! Such a great man!
16:04 I have never seen Spy Kids, but I can hear when a song is composed by Danny Elfman... 😇
You've a good ear!
I have never seen any of the Spy Kids movies 🎥
I really want him to play a part on Outlander. Even if it's just a small part. I love him so much!
Cant believe he didnt mention the High Life!! Loved that show. You for Coffee?
"Some films I like and there are some films I really don't like"
Son of the mask flash backs are coming back
Aldair Reynoso it’s so sad, I know it’s not a great movie but I loved him in it, it was the first movie my brother and I watched in English and understood completely, so I’m very fond of it. Anyways all his movies are great to me
Brenda Jaz hey I'm right there with you guys man, i actually owned the dvd as a kid, I didn't really realize it wasn't a good movie but I'd be lying to you if I told I didn't watch it everyday as a kid.
I enjoyed it so much regardless.
Mr. Flupe was Loki meets Willy Wonka meets Pee Wee Herman. He was amazing
He has always been such a well rounded actor. Just a class act!
Nightcrawler is one of my favorite comic-book characters, and his portrayal really did the character justice.
Annie (1999)! He rocked that role.
Yes! That movie is the one that got me into musicals! I love it so much!
I was hanging out for a mention of that one! my absolute fave movie musical
ikr they didn't talk about it at all smh
He's the one person who could play rooster as good as tim curry in the original
That's awesome he got excited about the Goldeneye 007 game for the N64.
Thank you very much for making this in a more chronological/timeline sort of way again.
Alan: "I am the voice of Black Beauty"
Me: *fan girl screaming*
SAMEEEE!!
I completely forgot he played all of these favorite roles!! What a truly great character actor!
I LOVED his Boris character in Golden Eye!!!!! I am Invincible - and then he dies.....
Professor Floop is his best. He added so much depth to a children's movie that just wowed me. Like how did that franchise get so many amazing actors?
lowkey only watched this because Spy Kids was iconic and I rewatch them all like once a year. spy kids is easily one of the best kids films ever in my opinion
Honestly the one I loved was Tin Man. He played Glitch and I adored the character.
Alan is the perfect example of an amazing human being. He's intelligent, funny, super talented and a really nice guy. I wish I'll be able to have a chat with him one day! :)
Anybody remember when he was Nightcrawler?
My favorite interpretation of nightcrawler, soo badass!
was he?
Icing on the cake....best thing heard in this entire video
@@Vino.Patell Did you not watch the video?
Heck, I remember him playing a flight attendant in The High Life
They missed Plunkett and MacLean, Reefer Madness The Musical and the Anniversary Party (some of my faves). Alan is someone who I've grown up watching and just love through and through. This helped me connect the dots and remember why I love him so. He speaks about his human/artistic experience not the glitz and glam. Both Tommy's Tale and Not My Father's son are among my favorite novels too. And he's silver fox daddy hot now. I'll be back in 20 years darling. ❤✨
Him as Billie Blaikie in The L Word is iconic for me! Alan Cummings is such a gift to the world ♥️
He's somehow sweeter and cuter than I had first imagined?! What an amazing guy!!
I was about to RIOT if they didn’t mention Spiceworld.... 10:40.
A very inclusive film history!
Yeah when he brought it up I was surprised. I totally forgot the movie existed. I had it on VHS when I was a kid. I don't even really remember it that well. I just remember the alien part was weird. 😂
I can't do that! I'm Mr. Floop. best quote of the whole thing
Love love love Alan! Wish he'd gone into a bit more detail about Eli Gold, my fav character on the Good Wife- miss that show
I remember when he was cast as Nightcrawler and insinuated in an interview that he was just doing it for the money because he didn't know anything about the comics. There was a huge backlash of fans saying he shouldn't be allowed to play him because he had no connection to the character. Then lo and behold, he was the best thing in that film. He was just amazing in that role, and I've always appreciated how he never half-asses anything he does, no matter what reason he takes the role.
I will always remember him as Bernard in Bernard and the Genie with Lenny Henry. It was the first thing I saw him in and I loved it
I could listen to Alan reading poetry all day long. I LOVE HIS SLANG! Gives me such a Donovan Mood.
So much admiration for this man, and it is so nice to see him wearing a shirt with Marsha P. Johnson on it!!
I bet, if I actually watched Goldeneye I probably had a crush on Alan's character. Alan's Nightcrawler is quite awesome.
I love Romy and Michelle's High School Reunion!
That movie was hilarious
"Titus", overlooked movie directed by Julie Taymor where he plays a great villain
And worked with Anthony Hopkins and a few other iconic actors in Titus
Forgotten how many films he has been in! Bravo 👏🏼
i feel so happy after hearing him talk about spy kids. of course, i've seen a couple of his other works and he's an incredible actor but spy kids is indeed a huge part of my childhood. spy kids three was my very first 3d movie, i remember watching it in the cinema and how alan's character would tell us to wear our paper one red one blue-colored glasses at some parts of the film.
ALWAYS enjoyed his performances growing up, and still do, he's great. So entertaining (:
So glad you got him to do this. The man does not get enough credit. Another great video!
It means so much to me when he said he enjoys Spy Kids! Also, he was amazing as Kurt Wagner
I loved the character you played in Burlsque. Such a cheeky chap.
I've seen half of these movies and shows, but I'll always remember him as the guy who introduces the shows on Masterpiece Theater.
Lovvvve this guy sooo much, had a "Weird" crush on him when I was younger that I still kinda have to this day! Also have you heard the man sing? Ugh, I just melt!
Yessss they covered Josie and the Pussycats!! 🥰🥰🥰 That and Floop are the characters I identify with him the most.. BUT the one character they didn't bring up that I wish they did was Billy Blaikie on The L Word. I always found that character to be interesting and memorable.
One of the few humans I wish to shake hands with due to the huge impact he had on me as a child with his character Floop.
