Alexander James-Palmer Yes, You are correct. I was just watching a clip of Kirk Douglas on Johnny Carson and that little clip was great. I need to make a point of watching some of his movies and also other classic movies which I always loved.
I live in Santa Barbara where Michael and Kirk have lived for many years. The family is wonderful and generous to everyone. Check out the "Douglas Family Preserve" in Santa Barbara; a large tract of virgin land that they bought and donated to all of us. (I also went to school with Michael.) Best of the best.
What a class act...Mr. Kirk Douglas could have been looking only at Johnny during the whole interview, but no, he turns to the other guest next to him to make him part of the conversation. True gentleman.
What an amazing LONG fulfilling life he had. A genuine human being and one of the last great actors of his generation . 103 years on this Earth! RIP. Edit: he should have won an Oscar for Spartacus
Dedication to his art, can you imagine how that must have hurt having that leg folded up for as long as he had just for the short time he was on the show especially when he sat down? And what face you ain't gonna forget anytime soon, one of the old time greats in the industry.
Stephen john bald, what was so great about Johnny Carson? Just a talkshow host and a comedian for a year. That's his whole Wikipedia.😂😂 I mean really? 😉
Mr. Douglas also had a peg leg in the movie "The Man from Snowy River" a few years after this...he played two parts in that film, All I can say is...Kirk was a talented Son of a gun!! and that's an understatement!
Mr. Douglas also had a peg leg in the movie "The Man from Snowy River" just under a "decade" from the time this aired! Anyways...Kirk Douglas was a great actor for many, many decades and we should never forget this fact! Kirk was a talented Son of a gun!! and that's an understatement!
@Bernadette Dixon "Sparticus" featuring Kirk "Lonely Are The Brave" Douglas, w/co-star Tony "Trapeze" Curtis, was/is really awesome, wasn't it?! Wasn't that or not a Stanley "Full Metal Jacket" Kubrick film production?! Really amazing!! I loved Mr. Douglas when I was an Anderson Indiana kid, decades ago when he starred in the title role of "Ulysses" from Mythology, with that beautiful actress portraying his lovely faithful passionate beautiful wife, as well. This is a really great interview of Kirk Douglas by the "King of Late Night Television" himself Johnny Carson to the audience of "The Tonight Show" in '73 as well. Classic NBC broadcast!!
My mother said she coundnt stand him he was very arrogant..I see a nice man all my life I didn't like him because of my mother said he was boosting himself. He did.in a way.
There is no doubt about that, but why were so many of his late career movies so bad? The same thing happened with Gregory Peck, Rock Hudson, and others. "Scalawag" was especially terrible! Kirk produced and directed it, so he can't blame others. I begged my Mom to take me to see it, and after the first few minutes, I became aware that she was staring at me and giving me dirty looks. When it finally ended and the lights came up, she said, "Well, I'll pick out the next movie". I really couldn't argue with her.
Spartacus has left the cross and Vincent is at peace with his Starry Night! Kirk, thank you for leaving us with so many glorious characters. RIP, Legend! You will be remembered and missed!
A man's man, a true hero. Remember him in movie "Ulysses" in early sixties. The final scene where he fires the arrow through the ax heads is tattooed on my soul. Struck fear into me and the would-be suitors. Thanks for the memories Mr. Douglas. RIP
DeHaviland is actually 103-1/2! Will turn 104 in July, bless her. And she also has the distinction of being the last living cast member of Gone With The Wind.
@@Dontuween Oh, you mean Beau! Didn't know that! Will have to google to see how old he is. He was a little boy in 1939. Even if he was born in 1930, would make him 90! Thanks for sharing!
What a great life he had. And a son who perhaps equaled his career. 103, wow. That is fantastic, but he had to deal with a stroke in later years. RIP Kirk.
@@dannygjk , What an asinine comment. The Academy is supposed to judge actors on their performance not their personality. But you must be one of the perfect people which makes it difficult for you to comprehend that reality.
@@libertyforever4270 You misunderstood me. I meant those awards are partially popularity contests. So it's easy to be "overlooked" if the person doesn't curry favor.
@@libertyforever4270 No problem I actually thought the way I worded it I might be misunderstood but I didn't bother to change it. I think the reason or one reason Marlon Brando refused his award was he had a low opinion of the whole thing.
He was really something else: old school way back machine.... he saw it all- - did it all - made no apologies for his long trajectory of everything. 🇺🇲🌿🇺🇲
RIP Kirk Douglas. He was an amazing actor and while "Scalawag" demonstrates his skills pretty well as a performer. As the only picture he ever directed it is all over the place. As of this date, "Scalawag" is not commercially available in the US, although sometimes it pops up on UA-cam before being taken down.
He was 30 when i was born my first introduction to him was when i watched him in that boat that took him trading with the indians how i loved that film,me in my Davy Crocket hat and my long rifle played by the canal,in the days when we played,when a Government looked after us as kids,where did it go,God i love America it gave us Movies the kids of today will never get to see in context of that time.Great Vid thanks.

Grande attore e grande atleta credo che sia una cosa possibile solo a un ginnasta professionista, una gamba piegata in due per così tanto tempo tra muscoli e legamenti...,e poi così sollecitata, non è certo da tutti, e neanche più giovanissimo, veramente Un Grandissimo !!!! Addio !!! Big Kirk
I know HOW he did the peg-leg thing, but I don't know how he did it (as in able to do it), because to me that would be painful! Dedicated actor, a great actor, a phenomenal actor. RIP Kirk Douglas & Johnny Carson. I can't help but wonder if Kirk and Johnny's paths have crossed again wherever they are.
The leg has to be held back. It is painful and can lead to blood clots. Now we have blue screens (which are actually green) can make lots of 'magic' happen. You can ware a certain type of covering that doesn't show up on screen.
Mario Zondag I know who he was stupid but the effect was pretty good till he turned around and I seen if foot on his Ass. The guy sat down like nothing . You try that and see the pain you’d be in . I though for a quick second he maybe never had the leg . Ricardo Montauban once had one then lost it to cancer .
We miss you, Kirk, Johnny, and Ed. You guys made the Entertainment industry fun and exciting.
Alexander James-Palmer that was the time entertainers doesn’t had political agenda

@@catswalkjpgr Way better movies than the junk they make now a days
Classic times, they are truly missed. RIP
theres a really good interview of Kirk on Cavett's youtube channel
103 years. What a life. Rest In Peace Kirk.
May God guide him in the heavens above.
He didn’t believe In god he told the severely non symmetrical bill Maher that on Bill’s undeserved tv show.
Kirk was one of the Finest Actors I have ever seen..
Kirk was really an incredible guy..
I wonder..
How many actually know Kirk was an Acrobat in real life,before becoming an actor ??
A pretty good one at that ..
Johnny, Ed, and now Kirk D.
Gone but will never be forgotten.
Prayers to the Douglas family and friends.
Thank you for the clip here.

RIP Kirk. And thank you for the great entertainment you gave.

One of the very best of old Hollywood, an era never to be repeated.

hes also around 63 years old here
@@thetruthchannel349 close. He was 57. Still in great shape!

Love seeing Kirk on this show, brings back so memories...
This is a good tribute to Kirk Douglas.
Paths of glory, Lust for life, The vikings...Movie memories lasting a lifetime. Thank you Kirk.

I couldn't understand why the princess turned him down, in The Vikings!
My favorites of his movies were "Gunfight at the OK Corral" & "Spartacus". Such great acting!
The Villain.
Paths of Glory
@@KMN-bg3yu Kubrick's first film, I believe.
My sister loved Spartacus.
Wasn't he Ulysses?
We miss you Johnny and Ed...man, I frequently miss those wonder years.
My mother said she coundnt stand him he was very arrogant..I see a nice man all my life I didn't like him because of my mother said he was boosting himself. He did.in a way.
JAGG KOUT too bad you feel that way...he brought much joy to many people during his time on earth
He was a great actor!!!!!!
" Lonely are the brave " best movie Kirk made and his favorite. Mine too. The end always makes me cry. 😪
Based on great early forgotten Edward Abbey book
So powerful the punch at the end I can’t rewatch it! I just love it from memory!
Me to.
A true legend and a real gentleman too. RIP Kirk !
One of the greatest actors that,ever lived if not the greatest rest in peace kirk knowing that you gave the world so much
