I love the fact that when Jonathan compliments Anthony, Anthony spins the compliment around to the film or the director or other actors. Pure class!
I love Anthony Hopkins he's one of my favourite actors Hannibal Lector was frightening and and creepy! His Oscar was well deserved!
An interviewer once tried to test me, I ate his liver with some fava beans and a nice Chianti
that’s why he’s Sir Anthony Hopkins
Plot twist: This is actually Hannibal Lector playing Anthony Hopkins for this interview.
10:40 when he says "Hello Clarice".. that gave me instant chills.
you could hear the audience gasp after he said it
When he said that I said my God he is like a Real life hannibal lecter
Was wondering if he said it here.. he never said this phrase, its a Mandela effect it was said in the next film Hannibal with a different actor (now anyway) by him saying it here that confirms it was originally in his movie
It seems Sir Anthony Hopkins has been mandela effected 🤣
@@NoHandleratall You beat me to the mandela effect!
Anthony Hopkins voice, is to acting, what David Attenborough's voice is to documentaries.
Lol, smiles
nice comparison.
@@whatshisname3304 thanks for the love and support, how long have you been a fan?
you mean Anthony right? I m sure you do. since elephant man, and of course, silence of the lambs though I liked shadowlands, and howards end.
@@whatshisname3304Great way to start the day, which one you seen last? Ever made it to any behind the scene of any of my movie shot before?
The man is definitely in a class all to himself. A true genius and one of the world’s greatest actors EVER
Absolutely. Just add Morgan Freeman, Jack Nicholson, Michael Caine and Peter O'Toole to this list, as well.
@@warlord9808 oh I TOTALLY agree, without question
@@warlord9808Jeremy Irons, Ian McKellen
Yup...I don't think i have disliked a movie he has been in.
"Let the audience do the work." Brilliant observation of writing, directing, and acting.
The best films leave a lot up to the audiences imagination which makes them scarier imo, like The Exorcist for example. I cant stand modern day jump scare crap, not scary at all and makes me cringe a lot of the time. It's like they're getting lazy with it with CGI and obvious jumps scares you can see coming from a mile away. Instead of making countless crappy sequels, knowing they will sell, they should come up with something new instead of dragging a series out just to make money riding the coat tails of the first and only good film of the series.
He is brilliant
Have deep respect for Sir Anthony. Amazing talent, wicked smart, and down to Earth.
Monstrous phallus also.
Wicked smart might still be an understatement. He wrote a complete piece for a philharmonic orchestra.
Seems like a lovely guy. Humble, intelligent and kind. His performances as Hannibal Lector are up there with the best of the best.
An absolute national treasure. Thank you sir Anthony 👏🏼
What a film what a legend , "sorry I can't chat any longer clarice , I'm having an old friend for dinner" ! Genius
His acting is great, but you need the whole team to shine. Only the actors and directors get credit, but the team makes it work.
Indeed. Your observation is spot on. Sorry I cannot write any longer Mark , I'm having an....
I could hear him talk all day. Very soothing clear crisp voice.
What an absolute gem of a man. So normal yet so extraordinary!
In a world where everyone wants to be heard, resulting to people talking over one another, it's so refreshing to watch this interview, the host just waiting patiently for the guest to finish talking and looking genuinely interested. I love Sir Anthony Hopkins ever since I watched The Silence of The Lambs, it still remains as one of my fave film of all time. He just comes off as someone you ought to be listening to. Very wise, very insightful and overall a gentle man. I love him.
Still such a handsome man with a voice like velvet .... love him! 🥰

@@anthonyhopkins4453 Well said Mr. Hopkins.
@@anthonyhopkins4453 hi anthony if you see this u played hannibal sooo well and i just like that movie so much just because of you!! Youre the best! You and jodie foster was so good..
He's one of my favourites actors!
@@anthonyhopkins4453" No doubt.. " you mean, not "KNOW doubt " I Marvelled at a paragraph written by a prominent figure of cinema like Sir Anthony Hopkins!! who acted Shakespeare, does such a mistake, not the only one though, 😂
Such a true gentleman. Genuine. Humble. An icon.
his voice resonates and is unrecognizable. did you know he is also a brilliant composer?
Yes he is , i heard the symphony that he said he composed years ago and only revealed it a couple of years ago , A masterpiece
“Hello, Clarice” never gets old. NEVER.
anthony hopkins, so likeable and the lovely welsh accent
Thanks for the love and support... how long have you been a fan ?
Waiting for FATHER movie not long now. He will be exceptional. Hopefully it will bring a lot of awareness to those with alzheimers
@@joycelle1000 Good experience, thank you for complimenting.

Such a genuine sweet gentleman. Great actor!!
He seem like a genuinely genuine guy.

@@anthonyhopkins4453 what an absolute weirdo you must be to take the time to make that channel
@@brandons5426 it's probably some liberal trying to spread Covid propaganda
Redundancy. Why couldn't you just use "genuine" and leave "genuinely" out of the sentence? It does not sound funny or amusing, or fun. It sounds stupid.
I think you're rightly right.
A delightful man . He's warm , charismatic , charming , and humble . Fame , wealth and power , don't make the man . The way he handles all those treasures , is what determines how good his heart and soul are .
Absolute legend of the screen and such a humble guy.
Anthony Hopkins and Robin Williams are my favorite actors.
Mine daughter too
This is the first time I’ve seen Anthony being interviewed. What a gentleman he is. Love his acting too.
I imagine as an actor (I'm not one btw), hearing someone like Sir Anthony Hopkins say he doesn't like theatre work, is probably quite a nice thing to hear. I think a lot of actors feel the need to say that they love the theatre as it's almost like it's considered the classical way of acting that all actors should aspire to. Of course, I could be completely wrong!
Yes. World's Fastest Indian is a great movie. Salt flats in Utah on a motorcycle and they did something to the tires and he's burned in the legs.
Sir Anthony Hopkins = a gentleman, a scholar, an actor and a great sport. Cheers from the US Sir.
By 1981, Sir Anthony Hopkins was practically a household name in the U.S., having starred in Magic and The Elephant Man. Forty-two years later, he’s still popular and instantly recognized in the States.
The World's Fastest Indian is such an amazing movie and so glad they mentioned it amongst all his other brilliant roles.
With that talent and success, what a humble man he is.
My fave actor, he absorbs his roles entirely. 💫
Very enjoyable interview ,he seemed very comfortable and relaxed ,and seemed to be enjoying it ,The most relaxed I've ever seen him when interviewed, 10-10 It was enjoyable just to see him relaxed in an interview
Anthony Hopkins is an absolute legend. How he was never a James Bond villain in the Dalton/Brosnan era, considering he was linked with the roles of Alec Trevelyan in GoldenEye and Elliott Carver in Tomorrow Never Dies, is baffling.
Oh wow, did not know that. I can't picture anyone else in those roles though, but I suppose that's because they are so iconic, as is his portrayal of Hannibal Lecter of course
@@moongirl786 True. The original first draft for GoldenEye was written with Hopkins as Trevelyan in mind. His character wasn’t a Lienz Cossack out for revenge ala Sean Bean, but a former mentor to Bond who went rogue.
Hopkins as a Bond villain would have been brilliant! Ahh what could have been...
An interesting thought about Anthony Hopkins being a bond villain He is so scary He could have pulled it off
Pure class... great actor great man... so much knowledge... so many stories
I loved his Hannibal role, but I did not expect he referred his voice from HAL9000 !
I didn't either but it makes sense when you think about it. A serial killer is typically cold and calculating, devoid of empathy and always analyzing. All of those qualities could be easily attributed to a computer or computer AI.
"The World's Fastest Indian" was a great film. Caught it one night free on KZhead and really enjoyed it. He is so great in so many films!
The feels when u watch it is awesome
Hannibal was an extraordinary film. Fantastic in its own right.
Sir Anthony playing Wolfman's dad as Tommy Cooper would be the most awesome movie ever. It would be lost on most Americans, but Brits of my generation or older would love it.
He did it so well that Jodie Foster never ever caught up with him off set. she recently admitted she was scared shitless of him...
"sir hopkins, what kind of food to make people live long like you?" "i ate human liver with some fava beans and a nice chianti."
😋
And also a wonderful composer of music.. I have seen his work performed by Andre Rieu and his orchestra .... Was one of the most wonderful pieces I've heard
My all time favorite actor is Anthony Hopkins! I'd love to know him in person! 💘
That’s awesomely great imagination, ever made it to any of movie shoot behind the scenes?
Great interview, so much better than the American interview shows. You get so much more out of it.
agree entirely!
My favourite actor for many years, from Meet Joe Black to Hearts in Atlantis and everything in between.
i remember seeing silence of the Lambs aged 13. It impacted me for sure at that stage !!!
I just love Anthony, just a brilliant actor and lovely guy ♥️💛🩵♥️💛🩵
SPLENDID INTERVIEW. SIR ANTHONY SEEMS SO NORMAL, REAL, DOWN-TO-EARTH, AND HE EVEN MENTIONS REPEATEDLY THAT HE LEADS A HAPPY, REGULAR LIFE. NO EGO ISSUES, DESPITE BEING THE GREATEST LIVING ACTOR. NO PERSONAL DRAMA. GORGEOUS PHOTO OF HIS WIFE.
What a gentleman...a rare breed indeed ...
Ahh, love this man, so talented but humble.
This guy is a PHENOMENAL actor and person!!!
He breathed life into Mutiny On The Bounty. Very revealing portrait of Bligh.
Bligh got a raw deal in history he was a great captain it was fletcher who was the problem
@@bystander1489 so who sent them round the horn Bligh or Fletcher?
@@factorylad5071 bligh sailed with cook he was an expert seaman look how far he went in a small boat when they were cast adrift by fletcher
As a 17 year old in 1972 I'd never heard of him ..nor read Tolstoy at that point... but I remember watching the BBC series and being absolutely transfixed by his performance.
-tap on shoulder.. "Are you enjoying yourselves?"
Simply the best, and humble and unassuming with it. Surprised his rendition of Captain Bligh in “The Bounty” didn’t get a mention, that was a superb performance. He is also multi talented, music was his first love and he wrote an excellent waltz which was performed by Andre Rieu and his orchestra, and can be found here on KZhead.
I loved Anthony Hopkins in The Rite. Very underrated. Brilliant.
His voice is wonderful I love him
I love you too Carol, Thank you for the kind words. Where do you live and how long have you been a fan?
Genuinely nice person, still retains his working class roots !
I actually think this is a great interview. Good ones both of them
Agreed they seemed to get along really well Best johnathon ross interview ive ever seen
One of the great voices and of course great actors!💚
This was a very good quality interview. Well done.
I love his film fracture and have virtually all the films he has done! Love the man
It is one of the halmarks of a great actor that they can take any role and make it shine, even if it's in a bad film. That is true professionalism.
What an amazing guy. His voice is unbelievable.
What an absolute delightful man Anthony Hopkins is, fascinating.
Love hearing him talk...
@@nedelinapanayotova2815 Huh? I mean Anthony Hopkins. He has a nice voice, theatre-trained and yet has a Welsh accent. It just sounds so mellifluous
Anthony Hopkins. Master of cinema. Much loved ledgend.
Such a generous man. In every way. I wish there were more. Listen to his AA talks. Stunning.
One of the best actors in history great in every movie
Wise, classy, humble. I like him
Such a lovely humble guy, Jonathan Pryce is also up there in the humbleness totally grounded
"The Edge" was fantastic
GREAT INTERVIEW! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Great interview, really interesting
A fine actor and a really nice chap. Maintaining the tradition of amazing British actors. Thank you.
There's a you tube item where Andre rieu performs a piece composed by Sir Anthony. Superb and quite emotional.
I remember going to the movies with my girlfriends and we were about 15 to see The Bounty and my friends were gushing over Mel Gibson and I was the odd one out who actually found Anthony Hopkins more attractive. My friends thought I was bonkers but still to this day I find him very attractive...
He is handsome, even though he's older
I do too!
Thank you so much for the love and support, how long have you been a fan?
@@sarahmiller1849 Thank you so much for the love and support, how long have you been a fan?
He’s a beautiful man 🇦🇺❤️
What an elegant gentleman!
Thank you for soft words and love unconditionally, how long have you been a fan?
@@siranthonyhopkinshq1690 I have been a fan for 30 years. I had to Google and do the math, because it seems like I have been a fan my entire life. Silence of the Lambs was the first experience. It did quiet a number on me. I watched my purse through most of the movie and cried. Interestingly, it was the Buffalo Bill character that terrified me. Hannibal was the only part I could watch. I was fascinated by the psychology behind him. I wanted to be Clarice, so I could interview him, and thus, a fan was born. Remains of the Day was the second piece of work I saw. And I was blown away! It is still one of my favorite films. I remember at the end saying, "Now that's what a movie should be." I also loved The Edge, Legends of the Fall, and Meet Joe Black. Watching your performance after the stroke in Legends of the Fall still never ceases to amaze me, and I have watched it many times. And being a Daddy's girl, and the daughter of a powerful business man, Meet Joe Black really resonated in my heart. This interview just showed me once again how impressive I find you. Intelligent, humble, chilvalerous, elegant, witty, youthful, mutitaltented - a true Renaissance Man. I find these traits to be so rare today. I am always so delighted when I encounter them. Thank you for your work. It has touched and inspired me. I continue to look forward to what is to come from you.
Ross did well here to reign in his usual bombastic style and show Sir Anthony due respect. It was lovely to see him relaxed and having fun.
I am not into celebrity worshiping or going crazy if I see an actor or actress but my god I wish to have a nice cup of tea with Sir Anthony Hopkins and have a pleasant conversation.
Best actor ever..he is so humble
And the sweet humble Welsh accent is good on the ears ....
Jonathan!! Let the man talk 🤣 he cuts him off so much.. what a lovely man. Would like to hear more from sir Anthony Hopkins.
Makes me proud to be Welsh!!🤩🏴
@Jaegar19Ultima Sheepshagger?
I heard that he still visits the local AA whenever he is in town. Quite inspirational. Incredible how even the most apparently poised individuals have their own demons.
He is so intelligent, so well-spoken. Unbelievable :)
Thank you so much for your unconditional love and support towards my movies and career. it means a lot to me and I appreciate you from the bottom of my heart 💖.
Humble kind man.
Smiles, that melt my heart. Thank you so much for the love you showing me.

Excellent interview to watch. Great actor. Would be a very interesting man to meet.
Great bloke, grounded and always super respectful.
Such a great actor!
Got to say one of my all time favourite people . Pure class Anthony
Great interview and great actor!!
Completely Legendary actor (that is still alive) who can play any part you throw at him really, from villain to hero and all the bits in between he hogs the screen with sheer presence (even though he doesn't mean to). Of course he has had iconic roles but it seems obvious from this interview he's not an aficionado of the Hollywood "elite". Which is awesome as they are so self-congratulating its nauseating. with their "red carpet" appearances that Ricky Gervais mocked so many times. TH is a very down to earth guy it seems, though getting on a bit in 2023. Thanks for this little gem.
He’s kind of introverted usually but can hold an conversation
I had dinner with Anthony Hopkins we had liver, fava beans and a nice bottle of Chianti th th th th th th th.
@@reubination is he 😐
In hindsight, this might have been a bad conclusion to jump to. I remember he said he went through a depressive episode around 2001 (the fallout after huge success -- the expectations for Silence's sequel -- it can do that to a person) and anyway he's just nice to listen to. I think I watched this interview in a dark room, during lockdown, isolated from friends and study, and uhh this is very different from watching on a sunny day.
Excellent questions will get you excellent answers. This is a very very good interview. Two class acts in two different ways
great upload. Please please upload the Catherine Deneuve interview from 2005!!
I m sure that interview would have been way more entertaining if Graham Norton would have been the host! ;0)
Absolutely brilliant love him
I can listen to him talk about anything ❤
"Oh no, it's not boring, it's just... a little bit arousing..." LMAO
Thank you so much for your unconditional love and support towards my movies and career. it means a lot to me and I appreciate you from the bottom of my heart 💖.
All Kudos to Woss, this is a very serious in-depth interview, during which he's able to tease out a lot of fascinating titbits of information from Hannibal about his career.
Brilliant actor! And he also is a music composer. Awesome.
