Nick Cage’s taste in Nick Cage movies is impeccable and fully accurate.
That’s high praise
He seems to really know Nick Cage's work.
@@jpdemer5 Still, not meant as a critic but he has a personal anecdotal perspective!
Only missing Wild At Heart
if it was top 10 instead of Top 5- I wouldve hoped he mentioned 'Adaptation'
His 100% dedication to the characters he plays and his personal disregard for what you think is delicious
It's the Koppla in him
@@SelinaCatCoppola
Xcellent
I don't care if Nick disregards what I think is delicious.
I wonder how delicious that cockroach was in Vampire's Kiss
We need Nicolas Cage on an hour long podcast so we can actually just listen to his thoughts, what hes learned in his life and everything else. He really is an intelligent person which you can tell he puts thought into his answers no matters how trivial or thought provoking they are.
I love how he doesn't hesitate to talk about film and storytelling in a way that feels true to him. He knows his history.
Agreed! It really shows his passion
It also doesn't hurt that he is a Coppola.
The dude became a legend of indie movies after his carrer took a dive and he came back on top just by keeping acting. Mandy is pure greatness.
Mandy fucking rules.
When I Die
Bury Me Deep
Lay Two Speakers At My Feet
Put Some Headphones On My Head
And Rock & Roll Me When I'm Dead
Absolutely!
he never came back on top...
@@simmzzzz 😂 someone's not paying attention then - his debt was payed off and he's thriving
A standing ovation from the _Late Show_ audience for Nicolas Cage.
"That's high praise."
My thought too!
🙄 they do that for everyone. They have their tongues up celebrities asses.
Indeed
haha good one
@@Pdotta1 Okay Pete Davidson from The Roast.
What I love and respect about Nicolas Cage is his fearless dedication. There is not a thing this man will not do on camera to make his characters more believable for the audience
I love Nicolas Cage's lion's heart
Nicolas Cage's pretentious response to Stephen's bringing up the "Thespian" misquote was truly brilliant.
It completely silenced Colbert. People often think Nic Cage is an idiot because he plays one so convincingly, but he is extremely intelligent and well versed in film , I mean his uncle is Francis Ford Coppola for goodness sake
He is a glib, not intelligent.
you're finding layers where there were none. it was a pretty straight-forward answer.
the first actor was an angel. played the role of a snake. his performance was so believable it created this version of reality we live in.
@@last7509 Literally never happened
How fun is this guy. Being 100% himself and caring so deeply about his craft. The way he moves through the world and his work is truly the life of an artist.
Nick Cage is always a win
He reminds me a bit of Jeff Goldblum. Always entertaining and seem to just be themselves with just that right amount of quirkiness.
say no more
oh and don’t forget Keanu - I want a movie with both and sneak in chuck Norris
Good actor but Cage's perpetually black hair is giving a serious "Steven Seagal goes to Russia" vibe. Srsly WTF is up with the black dye job? The guy is 60 years old now, time to grow up and stop being such a pretentious douchebag
Get in The Cage,love Nic
Nicolas Cage gave some solid answers in this interview. Despite his "crazy, out there persona" people associate with him, he is actually quite intelligent which speaks to his brilliance as an Actor/Thespian.
He also doesn't seem to be a hypocrite.
The only people that believe his crazy out there persona are kids that grew up on the memes and misunderstood them.
Nicolas Cage is an Oscar winning actor that was a world wide mega star praised by every co worker and director from Scorsese to John Woo. From John Travolta to Sean Connery.
@@lightup6751 he's really solid all around and I just recently watched "Face/Off" and that premise is iconic and I thought both John Travolta and Nicolas Cage knocked it out of the park. Cage has incredible range from "Raising Arizona" to "Leaving Las Vegas." He definitely deserves all the accolades he's received throughout the years.
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤯
I love the way he looks at Stephen after saying "and I don't want to be thought of as a hypocrite, I'm sorry if that sounds pretentious". His daring stance was saying "I said my word, the ball is now on your court".
He's more Nick Cage than the actual Nick Cage. He's a Nick Cage's Nick Cage.
He's played John Travolta playing Nic Cage. Understanding Nic Cage is like looking into Cthulu's eyes. You will go mad.
No he isn't; he's a THESBIAN
that's high praise
Nic cage is so weird and talented and unique You can try and hate him all you want but you can't hate him.
Nobody can hate Cage It's impossible.
Nick Cage²
The way he carries himself and talks about movies in general and some of the thought processes he goes through to tell a story, is actually quite impressive.
The guy is a true cinephile. Always was obvious that he reveres the concept of acting itself, it's his whole life.
Always
His riposte to Colbert's accusation of pretentiousness was a freakin' mic drop moment.
His complete self awareness, humour and dry wit have always made him one of the best for me... and the fact he still continually tries to find the best in every role and tries to improve and learn from every role is so so good.
There isn't a single movie he's been in that wasn't a better watch for having him in it. I'll die on that hill. And I'll chew the scenery doing it!
100% facts.
Here here! :)
My favorite were Gone in 60 seconds, Con-Air, The Rock and Face/Off.
@@NewYorkSong1 It’s actually “Hear, hear.” It’s short for “I hear what you’re saying.”
Amen ‼️
A few years ago, back in 2009, when he was living in Bath in the UK, a young lady whom he didn't know stuck a note in his letter box asking him if he would turn on the city's Christmas lights. He could have given any excuse to decline, but he didn't hesitate and the evening was a big success and he gained even more fans than he had before. Definition of a very cool guy....
When he mentioned German expressionism, Dwight Frye and Bela Lugosi my heart melted ❤
I had goosebumps. It was so awesome. Such respect and appreciation.
Nicolas Cage is very much in his own league. There's something so charismatic about him that makes him stand out among his peers. An actor (sorry, Thespian!) with the ability to morph his talents for character acting into so many tiers of film, from Blockbuster to Indie and everything in between. A true legend of our time, much like his Idols Brando and Lewis. Thanks Nic for all your inspiring words and passion for your craft. You deserve all the love and recognition in the world, and please never stop making movies!
Thank you for the love and support.Tell me how long you have been my fan ❤❤
Nic Cage is a lot more nuanced and sophisticated as an actor than people give him credit for.
100%
He is often great, but sometimes lousy.
@@jamezkpal2361 I don't know if I would say lousy. But he often tries things for the sake of trying it. I don't know if I would say he has bad performances, but they are always different. He always has an inspiration, and I don't think he ever phones it in.
But it often doesn't land because of that eccentricity
he's hilarious
Who knew?
He barely gets a movie in theatres these days, yet he still knocks a crowd dead.
Love him.
wild at heart is top 5 movies ever
Massive Talent is great
Nicolas Cage rocks! National Treasure, Rock, Con Air, Face/off, Gone in 60 Seconds, Kick ass, Family Man, his fictional portrayal along with his voice acting roles are my favorites.
I really loveddd Rock
One of Nic's most underrated films is Lord of War- such an amazing and cool film!
Apparently they're making a sequel to that.
You can tell he has taste because he actually picked the quality movies he’s made.
They meant Cage’s fav movies are his good ones. He knows the difference between his good and bad movies.
@horace sheffield I'm aware that's the whole point of my comment. His favorite movies are the ones that are actually good.
He said he doesn't get offered this kind of roles a lot
AGREED! He went deep for Brining out the Dead, which is my favorite Scorsese movie! It gets forgotten because he has so many great movies. xoxoxo
Should have mentioned Adaptation, but otherwise, yeah, great list.
I've never been bored watching Nic Cage. The epitome of an entertainer.
Damn…his explanation of actor vs thespian and then bringing it back to ‘hope that doesn’t sound pretentious’ was brilliant
Nicola Cage always ends up being more articulate and interesting than his interviewers seem to have anticipated.
I don’t think so. He was always well spoken, knowledgeable and interesting. It’s likely only people that grew up on the memes that misunderstood them. He was always an interesting and Oscar winning actor praised by Scorsese himself
I love how deep his knowledge is.
Why do you think he has deep knowledge from this interview?
@@antoniodominguezjr4734 the way he described the origins of the word thespian. The way he talks. His analogies. I'm not just talking about this particular video. He has deep knowledge of history, filmaking, literature among other things.
@@pranjoshi That is not deep enough, though. Most of us knew thespian originated from the classical Greek.
@@waryaawariiri1812 but he also described the chorus' role and how he broke out of that form. that's stuff most people don't know.
@@pranjoshi ahhh. Got it.
Nic’s CNN burn & the cut to Stephen’s silent head shake is the real hero here.
Growing up as a kid in the mid to late 90s … Nicholas Cage was a force to reckon with . So many memories : The Rock , Con Air , Face/Off, Gone in 60 Seconds … it was an entire era
Then he dipped a little but still came out with gems like Lord of War and The Weather Man
This second coming of Nic Cage which I think has partly been fuelled by social media and his own penchant to do whatever roles he wanted is his second era and I for one am fully here for it !!
ohh weather man, forgot about that one, so good. don't forget matchstick men from same era.
Back in the day Nick Cage worked as a parking lot attendent and his buddy John who was a guitar player who came to LA to start a career in music stopped by and they were talking about how John was so broke and Nick told John that there was a casting for a role and John was like "nah man, I don't know anything about acting I'm a musician" and Nick basically told him "it's worth a shot what's the worst that can happen?" and needing the money John was convinced and checked it out, we know know that guitar player as Johnny Depp, the musician who got lost on the way to band practice and accidentally became a famous actor.
And now you know, the rest of the story.
Was that for Nightmare On Elm Street??
Thanks Paul Harvey
@@robertchandlerjr5672
😂 You're welcome.
Harvey was awesome
@@curtisthomas2670
I think so, I'm not sure
@@whatabouttheearthGood day. 😂
If you haven’t seen the movie “leaving Las Vegas” do yourself a favor it’s one of his best it’s deeply moving. He won an academy award🎉❤
Also raising Arizona!
Also “pig” was genius!!!
Also Moonstruck ❤
Leaving Las Vegas made me cry. Reminded me of my half-brother, who killed himself (in a different manner).
Yes. Unforgettable.
Can we all agree this is one of Nic cages best interviews he's ever done.
You can’t go wrong with Nicolas Cage, so many amazing performances, up there with Walken for always bringing his A game, no matter the film
I loved him in Moonstruck too...
damn Im old I seen that in the movie theater.
I tend to stay away from violent or horrifying films, so I love _Moonstruck,_ it’s the first Nicholas Cage film I think of (though I understand he’s come a long way since).
We're not old....we've just been around a "little" longer, 😉😂
@@halflanding1900 Yes he has but he's as quick witted as ever !
I kept waiting for Moonstruck to be mentioned in this interview
Nick Cage is the kind of actor who would play himself in an interview.
True legend. For me: (1) "Leaving Las Vegas" and (2) "Mandy".
so happy to hear him say he likes The Bad Lieutenant, that movie is so insane I love it.
It's an incredible movie. "Shoot him again. His soul is still dancing."
I discovered Nicolas Cage when I first watched The Rock (the movie on Alcatraz). The Sean Connery + Nicolas Cage duo was excellent and the suspense was on point. Loved it. After that I'd say Face Off also was amazing.
+ Con Air
"How in the name of Zues' BUTTHOLE, did you escape"!!!! Favorite line in The Rock!
Was a ranger on alcatraz island when THE Rock was filmed, nick is a pretty cool guy, him and I talking about muscle cars a few times
him and Malkovich was a damn good duo.
@@markmac2206 Whaaaat!!!!
Yes they were! Loved Con Air!!!! And Gone in 60 Seconds. Heck... everything Cage was in was fantastic!
Raising Arizona is still my all time fav
@horace sheffield not unless round is funny
Just a man for a husband.
Cage’s take on Dracula is very interesting/ outstanding…after his explanation of Renfield, I believe it is a very relevant addition to the Dracula family.
I wouldn't want to kill his niche. But man, he would make a great John wick team character, by being himself. 😅
Willy's Wonderland is some of Cage's best physical character acting. He expressed so much emotion with out saying a single word. I know it's not popular but Horror is #1. Living Legend
That is an AWESOME move.
That movie is dope!!!
Very unique man. Smart. Sexy. I love him.
Yes, I love that one!
Nic doesn't say a single word in Willy's Wonderland, yet I was left yearning for more! He's been in some incredible movies lately.
Vampire's Kiss was one of the most entertaining films I've ever seen and it's still one of my favorite Nic Cage performances. So glad he mentioned it 🥰😆
4:37 Stephen’s face being schooled on malicious assumptions repercussions haha good stuff
You know, I’m suddenly struck by that I’ve never actually seen Nicolas Cage give an interview before. His personality is quite different than I would have expected and I actually am very impressed. I feel a little bad about how impressed I actually am.
Thanks for your continuous love and support. ❤️
For how long have you been a fan of mine?
The problem is that you probably were brain washed by memes growing up.
Nicolas Cage is an Oscar winning actor that was a mega star of the industry from indie to blockbuster.
He was praised by Martin Scorsese himself and commended by Sean Connery.
It’s crazy what a couple of memes can do. He spend too much of his fortune back then and had to take on some odd roles but he was always a great actor that is well spoken. It really shows how we blindly believe internet culture without critical thinking sometimes
That's so funny. First movie I saw him in was Vampire's kiss. People never know what I'm talking about. Awesome to hear him bring it up
I do. I love that film!
It's a fantastic movie! ❤
Valley Girl and Raising Arizona then City of Angels
That movie alone, has convinced me to watch Renfield.
You don't say!
Don't forget Wild at Heart!
Oh yeah! And that snakeskin jacket he wore in homage to Marlon Brando in "The Fugitive Kind". 😻
#1 Wild at Heart
#2 Raising Arizona
#3 Leaving Las Vegas
This is easily in the top 5 interviews that Stephen has done on The Late Show - brilliant 👏🏾
I love that he picked PIg as his favourite film he's been in. I haven't seen all his films, but that's the best I've seen him in. He's awesome in Mandy too. go watch 'em if you haven't yet
Thank you for the love and support.Tell me how long you have been my fan ❤❤
Before this appearance on TLS I've been waiting for Renfield to be released. The anticipation just grows stronger now. It looks like a fantastic film.
caught it last night in preview screening 75% fullt heater and Cage was just owning the moments he was on screen.
I saw it earlier this week and I had a lot of fun. Great movie! 7.5/10
This interview, in 3 or 4 parts, sadly, is one of the best late show interviews I have ever watched. Nicolas Cage has become, like Richard Harris and Peter O'Toole, and some other of the other old time great stars of cinema, a brilliant raconteur. Why some dimwitted critics mock him is beyond me, but a lot of American culture is so lowbrow now. He is absolutely fascinating. And the little preview of his latest movie, where he plays Dracula arriving at a group therapy session for codependents is mesmerizing. Nicolas Cage is a hipster, a real one, they are rare now. I bit of a crush here....
One of my favorite actors from the last 30 years , Face Off , Con Air , The Rock , City of Angels , Knowing and so many more great movies
We could almost be the same person!!!!
Leaving Las Vegas is so underrated.
A friend and I are making our way through every Nic Cage movie and it has been a phenomenal ride
The good, the mediocre, and the bad are all amazing to see with this guy - a highly dedicated professional
I think Taratino should make a role for him..
*Tarantino
Tarantino is in trouble now for sexual assault, so I’d be surprised if anyone popular to be in his movies anymore..
@@trufflesrheaven Sexual assault on who exactly?
@@trufflesrheaven Why the hell are you spreading these fake news?
@@mattclayer6541 someone’s feet for sure
The Rock with Cage and Sean Connery (RIP) is one of my favorite action movies of all time.
Shoutout to that great flick and those involved.
Was a ranger on alcatraz island, when The ROCK was filming, nick and I would talk about muscle cars a lot
@@dogsense3773 That's sick. 😎
Love the rock. Great wrestler
I love how much, thought, feeling and research Cage puts into his roles.
love Cage's performances. He always adds. But my favorite of all it's his kick ass character as a father. It really made me emotional how the character just was always worried about his daughter to be prepared for what is coming.
What a legend.
Nicolas Cage might really be a vampire, dude looks GREAT for his age.
Money does that. Sheesh.
Blood magic, everyone who is someone does it. ❤
Hair plugs…
You can tell Nick Cage really cares about his craft, love to see it.
Nick Cage as Nick Cage in a Nick Cage movie about a Nick Cage character doing Nick Cage things: Cageception. I'm in.
Vampire's Kiss was great. He could have filed for bankruptcy, but he chose to work his ass off and pay off his debts.
He ,Christopher Walken , Michael Caine are my favorite workaholic off beat actors
All brilliant!
Nick Cage being Nick Cage is so Nick Cage. I'm here for it.
Always have and always will love Nick Cage ❤ also check out that suit! He has kind of a modern goth Vincent Price vibe. Love it.
Thank you for the love and support.Tell me how long you have been my fan ❤❤
As a Greek I *kinda* need to correct Nic here: the Greek word for the acting profession ("ηθοποιός") literally means "someone who generates ethos", someone who generate ethics. But "acting", as in "acting up", yes, it's "hypocrite" ("υποκριτής")... which of course is another Greek word English borrowed. So, yeah, "actor" isn't a "hypocrite" in Greek, but also, it doesn't translate 1-1 to the what acting means these days. Also, blame me for patting our back, but being "someone who generates ethos" sounds kinda better than "someone who pretends".
dont you dare correct nicholas cage
I was looking for this comment, had a feeling that greek language part of the interview might be a little inaccurate.
@@johnm5186 o come on - Cage would love this.
personally i prefer "someone who pretends" because "someone who generates ethos" is...well...either it's too egocentric, or it's the half truth of a lie, or it's too much gravitas upon 1 cultural role. no matter which way you look, it's dishonest.
Ancient Greece v Modern Greece
I loved that he talked about Vampires Kiss. He's truly unhinged in that and it's a crazy ass performance. Love him!
Thanks for your continuous love and support. ❤️
For how long have you been a fan of mine?
wow, I can't describe enough how much I love Nick Cage as an actor. He looks like a good man too. all the passion and how fast he responded to those answer shows how honest and know what's he doing and love what's he doing in his work. I love The Rock, Face Off, and ConAir. I will be finding and seeing all of his films!!
he can do a low budget crapfest one minute and a masterpiece the next. guy's filmography is unrivaled. all other actors take a risk once in a while, nic cage takes bold swing with every project.
And always entertains in both
My favorite: Moonstruck
This is insulting. People treat Cage poorly all the time. He's a good actor.
He's a great actor who has been in many classic films but he has also been in some really bad ones. He does soo many movies, they cant all be winners... IMO what makes him bad in some movies and good in others is the same thing, he takes chances with his roles. Sometimes they just dont land but other times they are extremely memorable. The people who clown on him only look at the cringy, poor performances and not the good ones. The thing is that he is good way more than he is bad and thats part of what makes him a legendary actor IMO.
I loved him in Moonstruck too!
There’s always been a certain charm about him that I always loved and I think people see it too.This movie looks like a fun ride. For Stephen to have him on the show is high praise!
Edit: Renfield was good.
Thanks for your continuous love and support. ❤️
For how long have you been a fan of mine?
Nicholas Cage is a whole lotta moods and I am always here for it!
*Nicolas
face/off for the win everytime!
This is a master class by Colbert in interviewing. He gets him to open up with psychological precision.
My favorite film of his is The Unbearable Weight of Massive Talent.
That is such a brilliant film. He and Pedro Pascal are absolutely, delightfully hilarious together! That scene where they take LSD had me laughing so hard that my stomach hurt!💖
So good
Yes!!!! That movie is delightful!! I was so happy for Pedro when Nic mentioned American Werewolf in London, because in an interview Pedro said that's a favorite of his❤
@@JadeValour hahaha, yeah. I want to take LSD with Pedro Pascal and Nicolas Cage.
That was soooo good!
I honestly didn't see that ending coming!
The National Treasure movies were an absolute favourite of mine growing up I can't imagine how amazing those must have been to people of the country there are at least two generations of competitive quizzers in my country who had a fire lit in them by those movies. I've seen The Rock, Con Air and Gone in 60 seconds so many times. Stuck with Ghost Rider mostly cause he was in it.
However what I most look forward to is the nonexistent hope that one day there might be a sequel to The Sorcerer's Apprentice.
A little Indiana Jones for a later generations.
One of my all-time favorite actors. He stood out from the very beginning and evolved graciously through his movies. Nothing about him is pretentious. Yeah, Face/Off top five for me, too, as Stephen pointed out. The Cage/Travolta combo was unique, priceless. 🔥🔥🔥
The brilliance of Cage is that he may come across as pretentious but you would be mistaken to think he isn’t a professional actor. He researches it and appreciates on a high intellectual level. Cannot stop loving him.
Nicolas CAGE Is efortlessly hilarious
So glad he mentioned Vampire's Kiss. That movie rocks and is really underappreciated.
1.) Gone in 60 seconds 2.) Face Off 3.) National Treasure 4.) Con Air/Snake Eyes (tie) 5.) ... literally any of the cheesy c-rated, low budget Netflix movies made in the last 15 years that are excellent for background noise and laughs 😂
I forgot about snake eyes lol...Next is a cool movie too!
I don't care if he's crazy, I like Nic Cage. And I'm glad he mentioned Vampire's Kiss, as it's possibly the first movie I saw him in and one of my favourites.
There is always method to the Cage madness
A b c d e f g
Ghost rider was my first cage movie and still enjoy it regardless of what people think
I'm with you, I can't remember how many times I've seen it but it never gets old!😊😊😊
I don't understand why it gets so much hate. I enjoy it still
MCU before MCU.
It's my brother's favourite movie.
And I love it too
Never a boring dull interview with Nicolas Cage, love his laid back cool eccentric quirky nuance yet classy and captivating sophistication. Crazy wild dark sarcastic sense of humour and love his laughter/ giggle. He is 💯 a thespian and king/ lord of Hollywood, pop culture classic cinema. So great of Stephen to ask what his top 5 films are, I can’t pick just that number, there are so many. He is the only reason I will be watching this, him as Dracula is in a league all his own.
Thanks for your continuous love and support. ❤️❤
For how long have you been a fan of mine??
@@NicolasCagePrivate Long time, It would be so cool to meet you in person one day.
I can't wait for the Nicolas Cage Colbert Questionaire
The Rock, Con-Air, FACE OFF, National Treasure 1... these are some Nick Cage movies that are my favorite. 😊
I’m so glad Nicholas Cage is back where he belongs!
Horror that is humorous and deeply disturbing
You look fantastic!
Fun interview 😂😮❤❤
*Nicolas
not only is a great actor but he's a genius promoter and advertising man as well...he named the most obscure films most people have never even heard of as his top five nick cage films.
This is actually a very objective list of top 5 Nick Cage movies.
Adaptation will always be my favorite Nicolas Cage movie!
Same!
the best!!!
I love so many of his films and the more recent ones have certainly been brilliant: Mandy, Pig, The Unbearable Weight. I’m really looking forward to Renfield💖🤩
Thank you for the love and support.Tell me how long you have been my fan ❤❤
Love that he shouted out Bringing out the Dead and Bad Lieutenant!
Love the interview!
That's a sexy suit Nicolas!
Thank you for the love and support.Tell me how long you have been my fan ❤❤
Cages' charisma is just the best!
In these interviews now, I always think it's the Nick Cage from "the unbearable weight of massive talent" and I'm extra happy for him having a resurgence in popularity. 😂 The cage multiverse!!
