#2 1989 interview with David Carradine
Вставка

- This is another part of an hour-long interview with the late actor, David Carradine, in 1989. He was a really great guy; a true gentleman. (For example, he did the interview despite the fact that the show had a tiny, non-commercial audience.)
He was in Vancouver shooting Bird on a Wire, along with Mel Gibson, Goldie Hawn and bill Duke.
Sorry about the poor quality, but this was all volunteer-run by amateurs, and this is a fairly poor VHS dub on top of all that.
It was one of many interviews done by this cable-access TV show shot in Vancouver in 1988-89 called Conversation.
Clearly, he was a good, kind man. He was playing Tennessee Waltz on the hotel piano when he was picked up for this interview. He kept the interviewer waiting and smoked on the set (verboten!) but it was all in good fun -- he was playful that way.
A total mensch. Rest in peace.

I got more out of this show than any other show ever shown on TV and I was born in '57, my dad put all the overhead fire sprinklers in all the studios in Burbank, and in the area, the overhead fire sprinkler, so the places didn't burn down unless they wanted them to, but I never got to go on set, because I'm just a person that thinks the show was the best show ever to show on tv, it brought discipline into my life, and concern for other people, and stop me from reacting on feelings, I'll never forget David carradine, and I'm still watching the show.
Great thanks for uploading these interviews,,,
Wow, the stuff One can learn and have learn by just being quiet-- and watching, learning the true Mr. David Carridine's art... So, lets go, Ya'll!
When I was 20 a friend took me into his home in Laurel Canyon...he was very kind..this was around 1980! he signed a Kung Fu photo and talked to me about his father...John carradine who NEVER did interviews!
Interesting, so he was a real gentleman also outside of the TV world
You are so lucky. What a cool guy
YESSSS. I fell blessed!
GREAT INTERVIEW ! TUESDAY 6/20/23 JUNE 20, 2023
It is eternal and so big it became indelible
he is my spirit guide(: lol
Wao como lo extraño.no debió de terminar así.
I think this interview is significant because here we have David Carradine himself at 3:00-4:00 mentioning, without prompting, how Bruce Lee was turned down for the role of Caine in Kung Fu back in 1989, 4 years before Dragon: The Bruce Lee Story film wherein it is greatly inferred that Kung Fu (Bruce Lee had titled it The Warrior) was Bruce's idea and was co-opted by the studio into Kung Fu with a Caucasian actor: Carradine. Although not entirely clear evidence, I find David Carradine's words very supportive of the idea that Kung Fu originally was developed with Lee as the lead but then Hollywood got cold feet and rejected him, sending him off to Hong Kong to make films there instead.
Indeed Lee was considered for the role, but Matthew Polly, author of Bruce Lee's first authoritative biography, established that he wasn't the author of the Kung Fu series.
just a great interview!
Really good stuff
David Carradine was Great on Kung Fu the TV Series 💯
Interviewer should do his homework. Bruce Lee was around long before the Kung-Fu series: Green Hornet, etc.
I was...and still am...such a big fan of the Kung Fu series. While I always loved David in that part, I always felt he came across as a bit of a dick in interviews. He has said of himself at that point in time, that he took himself very, very seriously.
1 ) Kung fu
2) The League Contentious
3) The number 3 series
Should of been , The League live On And the ghost of David Arthur Carradine & Kim Chan ,
As aged , David ghost played Kwan Chang Canie , And Kwan Chang has a wife !
mine too !
@countingmx Part #1 has no sound. Do I need to toggle something?
Interviewer is horrible lol
Great listening to Carradine....but the interviewer is atrocious.....in pt. 1 he didn't know Clint Eastwood made American westerns....here he is clueless about Bruce Lee being turned down for the role of Kung Fu....Caradine does him a favor both times....
Hah can we talk about something else instead of Kung Fu? “I would love to”. NOT
