Mr. Candy was an amazing actor and his comedic timing was pitch perfect. My 12yr old son has just discovered Candy's work so it's great to rediscover his work, but more importantly....Let's Mambo!!!....
+Sergio Lobato I don't hate celebrities but when you hear the news that one dies I usually don't really care, but when John Candy died I really was sad. I loved him. I still think about how I wish he was still around. John Candy's death was literally the only time in my life that I was truly bummed out when a celebrity passed away. He was truly one of a kind.

There is a documentary about John Candy on UA-cam somewhere. I watched it and he was a very nice man. One part he was at a airport passing through after a really long day. Someone noticed him and wanted his autograph. He took the time to stop and sign an autograph for this guy. He made small talk with the guy and was very kind. RIP John Candy. Many people miss you even still today.
So, despite being an A-List Hollywood star, John Candy could go around town like a regular guy doing regular things and having problems like other regular people had? That would explain how he was able to be the quintessential "everyman" in his movies and shows
Thanks for the laughs John, i have all your movies...and watch them multiple times a year, whenever i'm feeling down, you bring me right back up. We miss you.
john always seemed so nice and kind, no matter what was going on. i think he was the same in real life. may he rest in peace. if you look he was in alot of movies.
I met John through a friend that was part of a Private filming done for a TV where they had worked for the production Company and invited me to sit in and see it. He was from my area and I knew the High School he went to plus we both collected the older metal bottle caps that was a big deal into the early 1960's . I had met him again 12 years later at a Hotel lobby where he was staying prior to being at a Football game for the team he was a part owner of. I spoke to him about talking to him 12 years earlier and he remembered the TV show and the one guest that was with him which I described to prove i was there in the Private filing . He was taller than I expect and had freckles , he was also the same person after 12 years and just as kind to me and let him head up to his room after a minute of talking.
I would of looooooved to c a part 2 to uncle buck, 34 yrs later. That would of been soooooo kool to see Tia all grown up. Married with her kids, and introducing them to her uncle buck. To see their relationship between each other. He was soooooo fatherly to her and gentle, caring with her. I soooooo looooooved that! Dawg do i wish JC was still here. I would of went to c alllllll of his Today's 🎥🎬💜✌👍🎩
One of my favorites, that no one mentions: Armed and Dangerous, which he starred in with Eugene Levy. Also, Only the Lonely, for a look at how amazing he was at dramatic roles too.
John Cnadt is a Canadian institution!! A lengend and icon. Loved him as a little kid. Everyone's Uncel Buck!🇨🇦🍁❤ he was also a proud Canadian. Watch Canadian Bacon!!
Always one of my fav actors when I was a kid but I didn't find out he had passed away until much later. Really sad to find out when I was older that he had past very early in life
I found out the same year that he passed, which was a month before my 9th birthday. Only the Lonely was the first movie of his that I saw. It was a romantic drama, but it showed that beyond his amazing comedy talent, he was a natural at dramatic roles too.
John Candy was a legend! There's nobody, not even Will Ferrall or Big Guy from SNL Chris Farley, they are good too, but John Candy was something different! I hope we get another chance to enjoy somebody as funny and hardworking at his craft!
Used to watch him every night after Letterman. Miss simple long form interview shows like this. But, in this TikTok era, no more attention spans for this kind of television.
lovely person he was every time i hear patsy cline singing back in babys arms, i say wheres you hand under the pillows there not pillows bwahahahaha rip john candy lovely man xox
John Franklin Candy (Newmarket, Ontario; 31 de octubre de 1950-Victoria de Durango, Durango; 4 de marzo de 1994) fue un actor cómico canadiense, que realizó la mayor parte de su carrera en los Estados Unidos.
John seems like a lovable person although he seemed difficult with writers and directors.That is fine, if you are the writer or director..if your the hired hand then you shouldn't have that much to gripe about.
On the contrary, John was a kind and understanding person with everyone he came in contact with including the writers and directors. John had the ability to see the character he was playing better than those who wrote and directed him and he often would inject his opinion as to how it should be played. Looking back at his stable of classic moments that's hard to argue with. One view of his scene in JFK shows just how wide a range his acting ability was. From what Oliver Stone said Candy nailed it in one take doing it better than anyone expected of him.
You can see john candy has taken alot of abuse in his life, and he handles it well. The interviewer strangely did appreciate he pissed of john here, and you notice how he came back bringing john back to be comfortable. Not many in hollywood would be people, that have taken much abuse in there lifes, and john candy must of been strange for the types in hollywood, a person whom was not an ego maniac, with total narcissism. Planes trains, and automobiles, will always be my fav comedy ever. I still remember when at school, seeing it, i found it so funny. He must of been really out of place in hollywood, but you can see here, he has taken some abuse in his life, and he handles the person trying to laugh at him, well. But i found it funny the interviewer knew he upset him, and tried to make john comfortable again. Its good that although the interviewer hurt johns feelings, he understood this, and made john comfortable again. It was a nice interview. But like i said, you can see, john probably took alot of abuse in his life. RIP geezer.

Candyman

I wrote a similar comment, without seeing yours.
Man i miss John Candy....always loved his movies....i was so devastated when i found out he had passed away R.I.P
What a nice guy - imagine having a few beers with him. I miss his acting so much.

He was one of the funniest actors!!
Uncle Buck was one of my favorite movies when I was a kid and I'm so glad I enjoyed it even more as an adult, I really miss John Candy
He seems so genuine, a funny kind man wish I could of met him
This was a great interview. They really covered a lot of memorable content by the legendary John Candy.
Big fan of candy hi from Britain 2016

RIP, John Candy! YOU WERE THE BEST OF THE BEST!!! =)
Nowadays Mark Wahlberg and The Rock are "comedic" actors. Give me back the 80's and John Candy.
💖💜💚💙 Love John Candy, what a sweetheart.

Extraordinary guy... Splash! Is my favorite along with Uncle Buck.. such a gentle soul ..John Candy truly missed... R.I.P
"Uncle Buck" is a move I have seen 15 times. A wonderful movie, everyone cast good.
John Candy had a heart of gold.
John Candy was a legend! There's nobody, not even Will Ferrall or Big Guy from SNL Chris Farley, they are good too, but John Candy was something different! I hope we get another chance to enjoy somebody as funny and hardworking at his craft!
Che simpatico che era, e sembra anche una brava persona, davvero...
Love Candy !
They don’t make comedies like Uncle Buck anymore great stuff, I loved Speed Zone too, hard to find that one
Used to watch him every night after Letterman. Miss simple long form interview shows like this. But, in this TikTok era, no more attention spans for this kind of television.

What a legend he was to us.
Heart of gold. True gentleman.
seemed that when the 80's were over so we're the careers of the SCTV CREW also
What????? Oh sure they just vanished lol
@@aaronjohnson3463 shut the fuck up

+John Boutet Yep I heard.
I love Mr. Candy! He’s so talented
John Candy in real life was nothing like Uncle Buck. He wasn't as bad as Uncle Buck. John Candy was quite serious in real life!
Rest In Peace John candy gone too soon
What a talent!
Big, big bear, big bear chase me...
Here you go. Got a nice Zagnut for you.
Bob Costas with the late great, John candy.
I wonder if U B was written especially for him to play?
holy shit. That HAT at the end! I want it!
Camp Candy!!

rip
A class act as they say
As I'm writing uncle buck is on Starz
hey div
The Schmenge's!
why did he have to die soo young :(
OC Guy He smoked, was obese, and had done coke, deadly combination. It’s a shame.
Being rich and famous is a curse.
I think he was fat and smoked too much in his life.
