Totally agreed! What a gift he has...what a lucky man! Clearly the movies - and moreso, the theatre, was what this man and his wonderful voice were utterly made for.

Haha nice one. Just rewatched it again for kicks and it was even worse than I remembered, atrocious directing and writing. Can’t believe the caliber of actors they snagged for this such as O’Toole, Gielgud and Mirren
So many kids think these modern buzzwords are new, then I listen to old media and realise they're just recycled from their grandparents and they don't even know it.
I remember this episode. It included a very funny parody of John and Yoko, and McDowell played John to perfection. Of course this was before John was murdered, which happened months later. The following summer when the episode was re-run, the John and Yoko sketch was deleted.
A fun-ish fact; McDowell felt guilty about making fun of John Lennon so soon before his death, but later he learned that John and Yoko had watched the episode live, and they absolutely loved it and thought he was hilarious.
I thought it was a bad impression and a terribly unfunny sketch. I'm not biased being a Beatles fan. I love impressions and I love Dowell but that one didn't work for me. Glad John liked it at least.
There will never be another actor like Malcolm McDowell who could tremble you and make you fear for your life like the puny mortal you were. Are his characters truly mortal? Or is it just that no one can prove it?
in every example ive ever come across of mcdowell speaking as himself he comes across as a highly intelligent bloody great bloke damn fine chap, and hes a truly great actor with an awesome speaking voice and special charisma, just like michael caine- simply impossible not to like.
In his personal life, he was awful, a cheater, womanizer and deadbeat dad. Pretty unlikeable. Must've been a narcissist, to charm women and audiences, while being an overall letdown.
According to Wikipedia, SNL veterans rank this as one of (if not the) worst nights in the show's history. Malcolm McDowell's monologue, on the other hand, was actually one of the more interesting ones from Season 6.
He was only 37 here, about to become a father for the first time. The thing is, he had already been married for 5 years when he impregnated someone else. At 25, he met a 34 year old divorcee and married her 6 years later. Another three years into the marriage, when he was 34, he began an affair with a 25 year old woman whom he impregnated about a year later, about 7 months before this SNL appearance. Two months before this broadcast, he had divorced his first wife and married his second wife in the same month. Two months after this broadcast, his first child was born. They had a second child two years later and then got divorced 8 years later, 12 years after they had met. He got married right away, the year after his second divorce to a 24 year old when he was 48, and his kids were only 9 and 11. After another 10 years went by, he had three more children with his third wife, now in her 30s while he was nearly 60. Now he's 80 with teenagers born in the 2000s. A real piece of work, that's the track record of a narcissist and womanizer.
You may enjoy 'Time After Time' which was a sci fi Time Machine film where he had to chase Jack The Ripper into modern day San Francisco...It was excellent!
I never even knew he was on this show! I’m slowly making my way through the infamous season 6 and I was surprised to see him. He must have been promoting Time After Time?
Check out the other ones from season 6 - they typically had one joke at best. A lot of them didn't even sound scripted - the host (often rather weakly) would just mumble for a few moments before getting to "We'll be right back".
McDowell was a good host--it's just that he was saddled with a literal shit show here (3 of the skits--the Leather Weather Report, Commie Hunting Season, AND Jack the Stripper--are thought to be among the worst of season 6, of not THE worst). Can you blame him for NOT hosting again?
His voice is so perfect, I can listen to him all day....

He's actually from Yorkshire in the north of England. His native accent is quite different.
So true!!!

McDowell can do comedy. Caligula is one of the funniest movies I've ever seen.
Caligula was intended to be a black comedy but ended up being something totally deranged and demonic.

I wonder if it exists anywhere on the internet
Mcdowell does have the best voice EVER, its just so interesting.
I love Malcolm so much!

He’s still an actor. Actively working.
Maybe one of them
you don't have to clap every bloody time people, Malcolm mcdowell brilliant as always though
2:14 There's the old McDowell smirk.
"The only reason I did this bloody show was to get a new permit anyway!"
I believe it, by November 1980 Saturday Night Live had gone downhill.
His hair is wierdly Gray For A guy in his 30s
Working with Kubrick sent him grey.
Although there may have been drugs involved, it’s really not that bizarre to see greying in ones 30s.
he was 37 here
37 to be fair
Ultraviolence makes people get older
I love how he used the word clout in 1980 that made me laugh out loud
That is actually a very old word that made a comeback.
@@michaelorlando4761 oh- i would never know
Something so charming about him.
Worst SNL monologue ever, he just complained, said nothing funny and then with no segue just ended it.
Lol I love this guy he’s got such Energy
He is really good person on all movies and outthere. Hard worker and real man.

@@MickPosch Of course they did ua-cam.com/video/NtOL3-OfEfs/v-deo.html
0:59 Now the proud GRANDfather of an American child.
There is an environmental film I saw where he narrates about what happens to the human body without water. It was terrifying!
He look like the xmen quicksilver
I smiled while listening to this the whole time
I always thought that he'd of been a brilliant Doctor Who around about this time.
Good call.
Why is his voice so cool？😩♡♡
He's such a great talker he would of been a good host, can't take your eyes off him, even to type out this msg!!!
would have
In his excitement for having renewed his work permit and avoided deportation I just realised that he _forgot_ to announce that week's musical guest.
For some reason Malcolm McDowell reminds me of both Eric Idle and Mark Hamill
Look how they respected my boy
I believe him when he says he only did that show for the permit. There are very few interviews with him around that time.
He always have an amazing sense of humor. I enjoyed his Cult Guru Bret Stiles role in The Mentalist.
What a dude :)

What a man!!!!!! ❤🥰😍😘
what an actor!
Adoro su Personalidad y su voz 🥰🥰🥰🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩
He looks like a taller and leaner version of James Cagney
His idol. I suspect McDowell would be pleased with the comparison.
Looking glass upon the wall, that I command to show you all.
I noticed that Malcom now looks unrecognizable than he did in A Clockwork Orange this id like in between where hes looking older but still looks young
what a cutie pie
Goddamn he looks so old and young at the same time
A little of the old ultra violence
Alex deserved everything
@@NateCraven318 it’s a fictional character 😂
@@_pepperz7455 I'm aware. But I still felt good seeing said character go through hell with how disgusting he was
“Welly, welly, welly, welly, welly, welly, well. To what do I owe the extreme pleasure of this surprising visit?”
I like Malcolm Mcdowell, I've started to like him and I've now watched two of his films "A Clockwork Orange" and "Caligula"
Watch O' Lucky Man Next Great Movie
You may enjoy 'Time After Time' which was a sci fi Time Machine film where he had to chase Jack The Ripper into modern day San Francisco...It was excellent!
@@crlguitar1 ok I'll watch the trailer and see
He’s Metallo from Superman The Animated Series
You should see Cat People next. O Lucky Man is pretty good.
He's so charming back then & right now!! 😍🇬🇧💖 this is why I love British men / actors like him!! 😍🇬🇧💖
I never even knew he was on this show! I’m slowly making my way through the infamous season 6 and I was surprised to see him. He must have been promoting Time After Time?
Immigrations laws my ass, poor fellow.... however he did it!. I love him
"Hi, hi, hi, Mr. Deltoid!"
Bet that's true....Mr McDowell, always tells it how it is.
Malcom♡
he aged very rapidly, this was not even 10 years after clockwork
he was 28 when filming clock so 10 years later he's almost 40
Drugs and alcohol will do that.
He looked old in Clockwork Orange.
Compare this to the 1990 Malcolm McDowell. He looked like he aged 30 years.
@@michaelorlando4761 ikr the los angeles climate probably wasn't very kind to his fair skin🤔
he makes me blush
Sing... in the rain, i am sing... In the rain
His menacing eyes
When people clapped because you're here legally instead of illegally...
Back when monologues were awesome
His voice sounded so different back then, compared to his voice acting in his older days, i didnt recognize his voice at all in Fallout 3.
Dressed in the height of fashion for 1981
The only thing missing is a bully entering the stage to pick a fight, alongside a woman wearing very little and McDowell becoming nauseated.
Evan Peters as Quicksilver in his late 30's
I was cured alright!
I'm the guy in the back who shouted "CLOCKWORK"
I want him to narrate my life story
I never saw this episode. I wonder if they did a Clockwork Orange parody.
Yes, they did:
ua-cam.com/video/NtOL3-OfEfs/v-deo.html
people complain that SNL is no longer funny, judging from these early shows, it was never funny)))
First few years, it was hilarious.
I love Malcolm but could this monologue be any worse?

Too attractive for his own good
Evening my droogies..
I am a Englishman in New York…..a legal immigrant in New York…….😊
He is so good looking!

You probably got hard at the rape scene sicko
Metallo 😎
Legend
I know that situation.
Malcolm McDowell scares me greatly even if this video humanises him.
He’s gray here but about 18 years ago he was 18
Just your humble host
That time he is very young
A most uninteresting story.
Dr. Calico’s voice actor
And Alex in Eating a Tangerine whilst Working for a Clock
isn't he the droog that kills kirk?
Cool story bro.
I thought it was Steve Martin at first

1:27 He said this 9 years ago. Today, just go to the Mexican border. You will be carried in!
Yeah right
If only they did all that for Lennon?
McDowell was a good host--it's just that he was saddled with a literal shit show here (3 of the skits--the Leather Weather Report, Commie Hunting Season, AND Jack the Stripper--are thought to be among the worst of season 6, of not THE worst). Can you blame him for NOT hosting again?
He hosted one of the worst shows in SNL history
Wtf I never knew this happened !!!
CRAWL! CRAWL! CRAWL!
Man he looks so old how old was he?
Ikr, he was 37 here, sad to say I think aging wasn't exactly kind to him, he's 78 now, but looks like he's almost 90 to me.
He's literally gurning his head off
Ha ha ha! Back when we had immigration laws.
