That scene in the truck when Francesca has her hand on the car door contemplating whether to get out of the car or not.....OMG makes me cry!
Fabulous story, amazing acting from Clint and Meryl. Very, very touching.
I bought this book in the Amsterdam Airport in the 90s, only to find out the book was set 20 minutes away from where I lived back in Iowa. Crazy coincidence, amazing book.
He talks about magic, and I witness it here in this interview. It's the same kind of magic he makes us hope for in the pages of his book, but it also tells me the artist has to carry it to express it in artistic form. This gave me hope.
I'm long past wishing for that kind of Magic. If couldn't handle it . Too intense.
Great story. Might try and read the book. I am impressed.
This story "has connected with the entire world". Saw the movie yesterday, god, I was crying! Just beautiful.
Deep soul. We can see it in his eyes. After the movie, I'm going to read the book now.
Still my favorite romantic movie of all time. Still heartbreaking. Such a beautiful movie.
Wow so he's definitely Robert Kincaid!
holy crap, Waller looks exactly as I pictured Kincaid...
Why "crap"? It's ugly here.
I was just thinking the same thing!
Same here
The book is probably a bit autobiographical -- listening to what he said in the interview.
The resemblance is uncanny
I think he wrapped up the core of the book when he said, 'I believe that the Universe transpires and creates Magic in lives'
I'd say, if you allow it. He's truly a Creative Artist and his experience of the writing is truly a creative moment, as he said - Zen Like ! He allowed it to happen 😍
The first line of "The bridges of Madison County" is magical. I love this book and have read it numerous times. It's so beautiful!
Best story of all time. Best film of all time.
Ive watched the movie about 30 times and I always cry. I hsd a love like this and all those memories come flooding back.

Wow, what a great interview! Thanks for posting this!
I was very touched at watching movie, since never seen before it.Long,long time, ,I will remember it for my life.

What a smart, beautiful Soul.
I noticed that most of the comments on here are from women. Proves what he was saying about that there not bein enough passion in this world. To many men watching sports ignoring their wife's!!!!
Yet the author is male
Beautiful book...incredible writing...I've read it several times and my heart opens more each time to this delicate fragile thing called LOVE. Incredible. He wrote with such a deep sensuality we have been blessed by his presence. Thank you for your gift
It’s a story of betrayal, some lady cheating on her husband is not a beautiful thing. Waller got what he deserved, a slow painful death 😂
@@brodi0351 my sympathies with you for your narrow hard hearted perception of what love truly is. I hope one day your heart will be touched by it and at that point you understand 💜
@@teresaiche4722 I’m happily married, I know what love is. I don’t think you understand what love is if you think betraying your family and cheating n your husband is something beautiful. Maybe one day you’ll pull your head out of your ass.
@@brodi0351 your comment says everything about you than it does me 💜
@@teresaiche4722 That cheating on your spouse isn’t a good thing? Yep good job you’re getting there now
My favourite book my favourite movie . Thankyou Mr. Waller
F...i thoroughly agree wiTh you. This book breaks my heart.
Have not read the book , but, EXCELLENT MOVIE!!!
Give yourself a treat and read the book and its sequels, A Thousand Country Roads and High Plains Tango.
Fabulous story and my story as well. But my story lasted five years and ended bittersweet in a struggle with cancer. My passion was not so much physical as with the heart. Fated meeting.
Isso nao foi um filme foi uma obra de arte!!! Assisti agora em 2024 senti a mesma emocao de quando 7 anos atraz! Os atores,formidaveis,eles realmente conseguem captar Nossa alma pra dentro daquela historia!!! Wauuu sensazional!!!!!
If you haven't already, read his book 'Slow Waltz in Cedar Bend.' Love story that takes place in an Iowa college town back in 1980.
That is EXACTLY HOW IT TAKES PLACE WITH DEDICATED WRITERS WHO DON'T ATTEMPT TO CONTROL. I know this personally.
Funny that as famous as his book was, this is the first time I've seen him.
Looks like a woman, doesn't he ?
@@Wally-pu2hh Very delicate, serene look.

As a hopeless Romantic myself., Robert....i totally Get It. And WHAT a Magical , @ exciting experiece
that happens.
SOo many CAN relate. And i believe....the majority of lovers...end up going back home.. .IF they're on THAT side of the track. The Loner
moves on. Bittetsweet...

Beautiful interview!
My favorite book and film 🥰
Thank you ! Robert :) the book of Madison County! the best book ever
Brilliant !!!
I just saw the Movie Last Night.. it was excellent... For some odd reason I don't believe that this story is totally fiction..
Any artist knows what he means by the inspiration and how the book was " given" to him.
He has gone, but not his legacy.
Blooper right of the bat. "Directed by Steven Spielberg? You mean I have been adoring Clint Eastwood as director this whole time? Well. .. so that's fine...this gentleman, Waller. Yep, a true artist! I AM OK NOW
I think this is pre movie shooting. I watched documentary and it's all Clint Eastwood. No one mentioned Spielberg
He’s beautiful ☺️
Robert didnt even want it published, he just had a story to tell & was way too busy to worry about getting jt published. I felt the interviewer could have been more gentle in the questions, it sounds like he is grilling Robert for his life but Robert amswers with genuine ease. Love the film, just bought the book off ebay.
Always reminded me of David Bowie
People said the movie was much better than the novel. Even mentioned in another movie "Serendipity".
No, definitely not. The book came first so the movie was a comparison to it only, it was an adaptation of the book.
Depends on your reading skill…?
At the end of his life , Richard (her husband) said "Franny. I know you have your dreams , I am sorry I didn't give to you" (Something like that).
Some said he already knew her 4 days story. But I don't believe he did. He just to say sorry about what she has dream of yet never received.
Remember she said he is a farmer and very clean husband . So without any clue of this at all , if she kept it as a secrecy .
I feel pity but lucky too for this clean husband.
*RIP*
What?? 😨😨

Fabulous Man.. WOW.
I’m really wanna read this book. But I don’t understand English. Somebody will teach me. I appreciate!
You can probably buy it in whatever language you choose
He is beautiful !!
An amazing film that I lost count as to how many times I've watched. Francesca's body language and these little sounds she makes while looking at Robert (from a distance) or thinking of him as if she's in a state of extreme sexual excitement but at the same time like holding back, trying to control herself, I find extremely erotic. Then you got Meryl Streep herself looking like a Goddest, with that beautiful face and that body of hers hidden under those dresses that makes me think no other actress could've played this character better than her.
Beautiful film that I highly recommend.
طيب ليه الفلم غير متوفر بالنيت رجاء
