Just heard today that he passed. He may never have been a huge star, but he shined in everything he did. And always put a smile on your face. RIP Sir. And Thank You.
MICHAEL J. POLLARD - An American Acting Icon... Whatever he played...He delivered unique performances...I always delighted in seeing him in Movies and T.V...
May GOD rest Michael J. Pollard in peace...❤
Grew up watching Michael J. Pollard as he appeared in Westerns..Star Trek... lots of other stuff. He always played a strange...odd... guy perfectly. No one played the weird guy better than Michael. He really added spice to whatever he was cast in. Rest in peace Michael.
TY Michael J.
I've watched him for years too. I first saw him on the Andy Griffith show when I was a kid. I was just thinking that he usually played the awkward introvert but like you said the odd guy. I'm trying to remember what did he play on Star Trek? Was it the original show or next generation?
@@crystalheart9 He was on the original show and was cast in the episode "Miri" in which he played a weird teen as a leader of the children on that earth-like planet. He was perfect for the part. Here is a link to a clip of that episode. Pollard at his best. 1966 ua-cam.com/video/Rm6gjQBwPFM/v-deo.html
@@Scout81 Oh thanks for the clip and it was a really good episode wasn't it. 😊
@@Scout81 Thank you so much for the clip and now I remember the episode, he was very good in it.
SUCH a great interview, Alison!!! I could see this any time and still feel like it was that night all over again!!!
I have to say, you have a great style that clearly puts people at ease, Alison... the hallmark of the best kind of interviewer!!
Alison such a wonderful interview, you’re so patient with Michael. Thank you so much
He was AWESOME in Bonnie and Clyde.....I was so sorry to hear the news of his passing...I'll bet he was great to have as a friend....so many people remembering him for sure...
Hollywood should do more to look after living Legends like Michael J Pollard .
I totally agree
C W Moss and Cousin Virgil. Outstanding.
Great interview Alison..Saw the movie when it first came out in 1968 as I was a Wave in Navy stationed down in Long Beach. I also have the movie on dvd too. Michael seems so shy. Thanks so much for the video.!
Edie Koller I saw the movie a rerun on TV sometime in 1980s. She made such an impact especially of course the story of his character. For many years I talked about him and would ask people randomly if they knew who I was talking about. No one ever did. And I believe there were several or at least more than one Bonnie and Clyde movie made. And I just never found it. I'm thrilled to finally know his name because that's what I would ask people and they had no idea. Now that I know his name and this Bonnie and Clyde initially debuted in 1967 I think you said? I'm going to check Amazon 2 see if I can get a copy. I'm so happy to see that there is someone else that's a fan of his as well. Freak so many years I felt alone that I was the only one that appreciated this man and his character. And it's crazy that nobody remembered or new of the movie. I was born in 1968 so of course I saw it in the reruns and my friends Would have had to catch it and reruns as well. Anyhow I'm rambling because I'm excited
He was a great actor and played great roles really well only he could have done the way he did.
Thank you Michael for some great films you were always inspirational.
So wonderfully, naturally and remarkably offbeat. I absolutely love MJP.
What a beautiful interview. I loved everything Ive seen of him in. Roxanne, Scrooged, all the classic horror films American Gothic, Sleep Away Camp, House of 1000 Corpses. He did perfectly capture good comedy & oddball roles very well.
I can see flea from redhotchilliepeppers play this guy in a movie that would be cool
You make a good Bonnie, Alison. It is a crime how pretty you stay. Good to see Mr Pollard. I wish him a blessed long life.
Thank you Alison! I really like your videos and all your facebook posts!
A very interesting and amazing actor. I've been seeing him since I was a kid.
He's awesome
Wow! love that guy.
He's not to much of a talker, lol. That's ok though, he's still one of my favorite actors that is still with us today. God Bless you Michael, may God continue on keeping you around a bit longer.
C. Wayne Brock. California
Sadly..it was not to be. RIP Michael!!
This is too cool, what a team you two make!!!
RIP Michael J Pollard.
Great stuff thanks!
I loved him in Scrooged ❤.
She looks great. Fantastic idea to dress up for it!
Stellar interview! Yeah.....yeah..Oh!...yeah......
"dirt…dirt in the fuel line…". I seem to recall that was his first line in the script.
If you just take a pause -- he will probably tell you a good story. Take a pause. Allow some silence. Its ok ---
I agree totally...plus he was probably put off by being in front of a big live audience...he was going to say something that sounded like it would have been a good story, but he got cut off.....lots of actors are actually very shy...he was still great to see, and he was fun...I would have loved to meet him in person that night.
Even when I was a little girl I thought he was just soooo cute! Love him in the original Star Trek.
Alison, that is just surreal, awesome interview. Word is that Michael has been homeless or something like that, so how you found him is a wonder, I bet there is a story behind that. Warren probably really was wondering what happened to his old bud. Great interview, but seriously, surreal. Oddly, I don't think he's changed much aside from his appearance while everyone else is so different. Oh, you look fab as Bonnie, too.
***** that is so sad...has it been confirmed that mjp is or was homeless?
John Runion Sensitive topic. Alison deserves credit for what she did. I think Warren Beatty was honestly surprised he turned up. Nice that he hasn't forgotten his old bud.
***** MJP isn't homeless. He's lived over by the Farmers Market since 1984. But he doesn't drive, so he walks EVERYWHERE and people assume he is homeless. I just hope he watches where he's going when he's walking aimlessly though!
Alison Martino Cool, thanks for the word on that, Alison. I knew you would have the scoop, there are all sorts of rumors about him. Glad you cleared it up, appreciate that very much.
Alison Martino
thank you for that information.
michael j pollard is agood axtor he s lucky to work with waren beaty its a great movie and a clasic mixhael a lucy charter actor to get so much work
rich Beatty should support him
he owes him for that performance...
cool dude that Michael
R.i.p. C.W. MOSS
Warren Beatty also shredded the facts about Bonnie and Clyde. Blanche Barrows book mentioned how Beatty kept changing the script , and the names. There was no C. W. Moss. He was really good in the Film though. RIP little man.
Right. CW Moss was a composite actor for two other gang members.
Enjoyed Little Fauss and Big Halsey .
Wow
Cool!
RIP MJP.
RIP mate.
Is about exciting as watching paint dry
🌹RIP Cousin Virgil🌹
Yeah
Was that Patty Duke!? She was a gorgeous young girl, and so troubled. You can see it on her face.
"YEAH!" hehehe
Michael - the legs - look at the legs, lovely legs, they are right there.
"Yeah,....."
Why'd he change his birthname of Michael John Pollack , Jr?!
Method actors!
LITTLE FAUSS
Was he an alcoholic?
Weird little guy, always was and still is!!
would have been a perfect Bilbo Baggins of Lord of the Rings
@@jondoes8222 I agree; would've love to see him cast as a hobbit in one of the one ring films period.
Painful to watch !
He's worth 1.5 million and can't afford to buy pants that fit?
