The calmness in Anthony Hopkins' voice is very soothing...I'm not sure I've ever heard anyone be so completely open whilst also being so completely at peace with themselves...that was a wonderful interview, Hopkins has a confidence in the way he speaks that can only come from a total lack of fear. Here is a man who has slayed his demons and walks free of fear.
An only child. Father hated when he played piano = trauma. Introverted yet easy on the eyes. Why? Perfectionism is a sickness. I know. I used to have it. Drove my friends away as they would say I'm a "control freak", that I wanted to steal everyone's power. But it's a result of insecurity and a way of trying to heal wounds to the psyche. Tony picked up the piano again because his father wasn't there to berate him. This is a troubled soul even now, he looks for divinity. He worries what is beyond death. I hope he finds peace before he passes. Sir Anthony Hopkins, thank you for being. Thank you for all the gifts you've created for us. They are part of your legacy and will be forever I should think. When we die, we will be joining billions who have gone before us. So. We should be at peace with it.

Ikr it is like your parents you grow up with them and you don't remember them been young but when you look at pictures of them looking so young you think wow they really look young and very absolutely gorgeous
Thanks for this I haven't seen him looking so young. It's interesting for me watching this as I've seen so little of his work, certainly not Magic. And getting to know something of the bloke.

I have the movie Magic. Anthony Hopkins, You were great acting in this movie. You are the spark that keeps Hollywood on the move, and you always add spice to the movies. You are fabulous !
The classic Celt self destruction, im glad he didn't succumb to it like Burton and others.what he said about the ego being deadly is absolutely true if it goes unchecked
I'd like to have Anthony Hopkins over for dinner. He's full of fascinating insights and personal history and the way he recounts them is subtly soothing and makes you want to listen to him forever.
In “The Lion In Winter”, Hopkins’ first movie, his voice sounded so different than it did in later movies. Hard to believe it’s the same person’s voice.
Linehan was a reporter from Canada famous for his brilliance, his insight and the amazing questions he would ask. Martin Short, also from Canada, we rule... does a great impression of him.
I agree. Wanted to watch it for a long time but didn’t have much money to spare for the dvd. I found a version on youtube and finally I could watch it. One of my favourite roles from Hopkins. What an excellent actor.
I've watched a few of Tony's interview and he considers himself not intellectual which kind of makes me laugh as he is one of the most fascinating men to listen too.
i like at around 26 mins he talks how he gave up smoking and drinking basically where the battle or conflict felt like it was over. I feel like this a week after giving up smoking where i don't have to make life harder than it needs to be.
Feeling like everyone else was talking a different language from the age of 4? Always feeling like he was on the outside looking in? Destructive perfectionism? So much here.

here's a man who's been off his rocker for probably most of his life, and has become one the world's most venerated actors. He actually used that "skill" to make it happen like others.
When you look at interviews like this where the guest is permitted to talk and is rarely interupted. Now compare that to todays hosts and you realise the difference. Great pity.
@@vintagesoul73911 I guess I'm mixing up things bc I saw him in a film in the 70s where his hair was blondish but it could have been white or grey. He obviously died his hair darker for sotl bc it's dark then at the Oscar's its white. Although sotl was filmed a good amt of time b4 the 92 Oscar's it already was a very long time from its release in feb 91 since an Oscars came after that in 91 all the way til March of 92 . Plus the film started in late 89 into early 90 but was held back months & months bc Orion was pushing dances with wolves for its promo in 1990 & moved silence to after dances with wolves run to 91 so it was basically 3 years between shooting & the Oscars. That actually unwittingly helped sotl become a phenomenon bc it just missed the oscar deadline so it made a fortune at the box office then was kept going through cable & video rentals then all the Oscar nods made more people see it then it made history becoming the 3rd film ever ( & not since in 30 years ) to sweep the top 5 so younger people like me who were too young to see it in feb 91 we were all catching it again bc of the Oscars wins well into may of 92. That's an unusually very long run for people to add onto the phenomenon & was all accidental. If it was released in late 1990 it all could have been different. If a movie gets released too close to its Oscars then it could vanish but this kept going & going. Basically I was 9 when it came out bc it was early in the year b4 my bday & 11 when I saw it in april after my bday in 92. So at 11 since things were way more relaxed with kids viewing access a whole new group of kids got to see it bc I know in almost 6th grade I was given way more independence.
You have such a refined, high-powered gadar. Yes, Brian was gay, and even though he lived with his male partner, he never could bring himself to tell his devout Irish Catholic mother. Doubt that he was fooling her...
I could listen to his voice all day
A tip: you can watch series at instaflixxer. Been using it for watching all kinds of movies recently.
@Thomas Reuben yup, I've been watching on instaflixxer for since december myself :)
@Thomas Reuben Yup, I have been watching on InstaFlixxer for years myself =)
Yeah, and I could look at him all day, too! ❤️
Then why don’t you???

Yes you are right
Back when TV was for adults. It's nice that the interviewer stays silent and lets Anthony talk for so long.
He is captivating, transfixing and hypnotizing.. So intelligent, beautifully-spoken with that velvety well-controlled speech and enunciation rhythm
It's called a Welsh accent!🤣
@@andiemorgan961 a cultivated South Walian accent.
Put the thesaurus down...

The finest actor who has ever lived
Jolly Osmond wdym lived he’s still kicking
The world's finest actor ever Anthony Hopkins.Up there with The Beatles and The Bee Gees.
He is definitely up there. Anthony Hopkins is phenomenal in Magic
@Jim Newcombe he is better than all of those
Nowhere did he claim that he was dead.@@jedrayne3636
I love his smile.. beautiful smile 🖤✨
I didn't think I could love this man anymore. His art has always inspired me. He is a fine wine. 🍷
Che bello era da giovane e lo è ancora adesso .
I could listen to his voice forever too and look at his beautiful face😅😅😅😅😅
He has spoken recently about his high-functioning Asperger’s. This would explain his childhood issues with life around him.
so young so sweet so kind and so clever
Autism and cocaine is a hell of a combo
@@brucesmith54, what does cocaine?
Who me?
@@NichtNameee only you
He had grown up a bit since giving up alcohol a few years prior to this.

Anthony hopkins is one of the greatest actors of all time!
Beautiful man
He's absolutely gorgeous when young.
Ikr it is like your parents you grow up with them and you don't remember them been young but when you look at pictures of them looking so young you think wow they really look young and very absolutely gorgeous
@Nikuper Vlogs, what, about 45? That’s not old, unless you’re 13 years old!
Anthony Hopkins is 40 years old here, but looks 55.
He looks a bit like Benjamin Orr of The Cars here.
Brian Linehan was the ultimate interviewer.
"When problems do exist, they are technical."
Nice way of looking at things
One of the best actor interviews of all time.
Sir Anthony Hopkins great actor wat a great voice lovely man
great interview by both parties...very enlightening..thanks for uploading.
“Magic” was the best of the dummy-takes-over-the-ventriloquist stories I have seen, and I have seen quite a few, done on TV and movies.
Amen! Love Hopkins. Favorite actor. So much respect for him, that grows with every interview and movie of his I have the pleasure to watch.
You have a great talents dear and continue your beautiful work dear Sir AnthonyHopkins forever 💖💖💖💖
a wonderful bit of history, magic was well magic and gave us a wee taste of this stellar actor
Thank you for posting this wonderful interview.
Love you Tony.....
lovely!
"I try to keep out of my own way as much as I can" (4:44)... a good philosophy to try to live by.
Thanks for this I haven't seen him looking so young. It's interesting for me watching this as I've seen so little of his work, certainly not Magic. And getting to know something of the bloke.

I love his English.

The classic Celt self destruction, im glad he didn't succumb to it like Burton and others.what he said about the ego being deadly is absolutely true if it goes unchecked
There are three great British voices I love - Hopkins, Burton, and Olivier
I'd like to have Anthony Hopkins over for dinner. He's full of fascinating insights and personal history and the way he recounts them is subtly soothing and makes you want to listen to him forever.
What an amazing and gifted
Actor!! +Magic is a brilliant classic!!!
such a magnificently brilliant classic actor! just love to watch him on screen, simply awesome work!
This is a great interview Anthony you are heavenly also good interviewer great questions asked
ahh, an inspiration, to all...
Anthony Hopkins is HOT! Haha
acting is the sugar pill of knowledge
How come??
@@dyuthig9518 caviar for the general.
I think this genius is proud to be British as well as Welsh. A great man, I have always realised his brilliance.
The Welsh and the other Brythonic Celtic groups ARE the ORIGINAL Britons!😉
@@andiemorgan961 So you are ‘ pure’ are you ? Am looking forward to this argument.
Thank you !
Sir Anthony, do not worry you will always be a super great actor.,
Great content ! All yt should show a larger timeline of all world's content since forever
Any interpretation he does stands out because he embodies it with such passion that it makes it natural. PRK-2024
Amazing

Il est une magie. Thank you😘😘😘😘😘😘
I love the accent

Would love to see the interviews with Ann-Margret
I got "Dream Scapes" for my birthday. I plan on reading it slowly and going over the lines, repeatedly ! Har Har Har.
He's just as brilliant as he's ever been
i loved the film he did with anne margret, he was a puppeteer, it was a horror film. magic..yes, he talks about it.
I agree. Wanted to watch it for a long time but didn’t have much money to spare for the dvd. I found a version on youtube and finally I could watch it. One of my favourite roles from Hopkins. What an excellent actor.
Worked on the white bus with him. . Good experience. John butterworth
Butterworth?? Is that really your name or are you just trolling?
@@PretentiousStuff, why not? There were Butterworths on the maternal side of my brother-in-law’s ancestry, from Lancaster, England.
I've watched a few of Tony's interview and he considers himself not intellectual which kind of makes me laugh as he is one of the most fascinating men to listen too.
i like at around 26 mins he talks how he gave up smoking and drinking basically where the battle or conflict felt like it was over. I feel like this a week after giving up smoking where i don't have to make life harder than it needs to be.
He could have produced some wonderful ASMR.
Anthony Hopkins is speaking with the voice of his psychiatrist, he grows out of it and becomes himself after a ten year period.
I know you know...the best smart actor..good luck...
Very good actor
He basically played himself in, Meet Joe Black. One of my favorite movies
Magic!
Could you get the website publicity out of the clip...I'd love to see Sir Anthony Hopkins better. Such a wonderful man. Thank you.
Thank you! I was thinking the same thing.
He’s from Port Talbot just like me 😊
Trying to see his 'asbergers'...really hard to tell
He has very mild asperger.
Feeling like everyone else was talking a different language from the age of 4? Always feeling like he was on the outside looking in? Destructive perfectionism? So much here.

Wise man.
Favorite english actor
Very much Welsh!
I've always assumed that he didn't "learn ventriloquism" for Magic; Fats' voice was dubbed in postproduction.
Sometimes it is, but when hes doing his act and many other segments in the movie, you can see him speaking without moving his mouth
He looks exactly like his character Corky in 'Magic' here...
....Now where's that puppet? (EDIT: I see he talks about that film here)
here's a man who's been off his rocker for probably most of his life, and has become one the world's most venerated actors. He actually used that "skill" to make it happen like others.

I suppose the definition of refinement may not be enough.
Hes so young here i didnt know he was a blonde
I'm lost. Where do you see blonde?
Far as I know, he had brown hair. It appears lighter here, possibly because of the lighting.
@@vintagesoul73911 I guess I'm mixing up things bc I saw him in a film in the 70s where his hair was blondish but it could have been white or grey.

It was the 70s. lol

He's clearly hit more than a few branches.

Kind of sick to now that this man became a cannibal later in his age. He ate a lot of people and he is still out there eating people...

Or perhaps it is the other way round...
