I had no idea Hader was such a cinephile. It makes me love the man even more. This the the first interview I’ve seen him in, where he’s actually relaxed enough to be himself and not play the “funny man” everyone expects him to be. No nervous laughter here. He’s genuinely enjoying himself and it’s so refreshing.
DeathBeforeDecaf Liking movies, sure. Who doesn’t? But actually loving the medium enough that you dig into the history of it, watch everything you can get your hands on and are open and eclectic enough to appreciate films of various quality and genres on their own terms. That takes a special type of film geek. The type that usually pursues a career behind the camera. I rarely see actors discuss their love of the craft beyond a few favorites or classics that inspired them.
It's excellent! And, of course, it makes me think about my own movie watching journey. We all have one. And the fact he's opinionated about movies. When I was in university and me and my friends used to watch alot of movies. Some people in our group picked The Natural, a way too often. Doug. My tastes were way left field of the group so I watched films by Scorcese, and others like him, by myself and then watched the popular movies with the gang. But the girls in our group of friends were cute so.....I tolerated a lot of average films.
I grew up in Tulsa and was a childhood friend of Bill's. When he says that he would watch for the reaction of his friends when turning them on to something ( film or music ) he isn't lying. He turned me on to Pink Floyd , Frank Zappa, A clockwork orange, etc.... His dad had a killer music collection.
@@Cottagegay Film experiences? No not really. We would listen to the vinyl soundtrack to A clockwork orange and act out the fight scenes which go with the sound track. Record our voices on a cassette and he would do a lot of the old Dana Carvy stuff from SNL. When he made SNL I ran him off with my conspiracy theory crap. I used to mess with him about the elite and what not and he was like '' dude I gotta go'' lol I don't blame him. Damn that was almost 20 years ago. My dad still grooms his parents dogs every now and then. I'm not expecting him to reach out any time soon haha.
Grew up in Tulsa myself. It was a bit weird. I'm way older than Bill. There weren't any multiplex theaters at all, but I saw so many films as a kid (my parents liked me to get me out of the house so this was at least a weekly thing for me). One that I didn't see was one of the first X-rated (this is when the system started; 16 or older) films and it starred Haley Mills (pregnancy or lack thereof was involve, so....). Sweet little film, but I babble (and I'm damned good at it). Tulsa is actually an international seaport. Check yer maps and go, "WHAAAA?!?!" They spent most, well all of my childhood dredging the Arkansas River. It is called the Port of Catoosa. Look it up. It's my favorite Tulsa tidbit.
Double S probably because it wasn’t about his comedy. All of those interviewers, intentionally or not, end up asking the same questions. Not to take away from this one though because this is great
@Double S I agree, the Interviewer was great, really solid questions. It’s the first time I’ve watched something from this channel, and I’ll have check out more to see if it’s this good.
@@luislozano6332I like to think I’m pretty chill. I’m not a cinephile like Bill but I love all kinds of films and discussing them. My friends just don’t get as excited or interested as I do about them so that’s why I think it’d be pretty cool to have a friend like Bill
"The movie doesn't want to watch this!" That is a child's thought, so endearing. Phew, this is probably the first time I see BH enjoy an interview so much, maybe because it's about directing and not acting. Anyway, I can't wait to watch other interviews of him on this channel.
Bill said in an interview that he didn't like Fight Club partly because people around him were literally wanting to open a fight club and taking the movie way too seriously.
I agree with BH on that one. That movie s*cked in a big way. I'd gone with some buddies to see it. Brad Pitt was an idiot in that movie. It was terrible. I'd literally wanted my money back at the time.
Dear god, Hader pointing out how Evil Dead progressed as they started actually learning as they go is so spot on, I can’t believe I didn’t see it before.
15:23 - I fully expected Bill to turn into Stefan and be like, "yes yes yes yes yes, if you're looking to for a movie that will scar you for life, Hollywoods hottest movie is..."
Every movie interview or podcast with Bill gives me a movie to watch that I've never heard of. When I heard Edgar Wright and him swap movie recommendations I thought "Of course".
This is probably my favorite interview with him. I adore it so much because you can tell he’s so in his element here talking about something he’s so passionate about and it makes so happy that he gets to just talk and talk about it however he wants to. I love movies and I love this man!
I hated that film too, and so did most of my friends. Only one friend of mine actually enjoyed it. I attributed this feeling to the fact that Kubrick died before finishing it. Must admit that Bill's reading surprises me, I didn't get the "ridiculous" part of the story. Why did you enjoy the film ?
So nice to see a side of him that isn’t seen often. It’s lovely how passionate he is, and it’s more like a conversation than an interview. You can tell he’s really enjoying it.
Yep, that impressed me, too. It's the late, great Stanley Kubrick's swan song and much of the critics and movie going public, seemed to me, to have their eyes (and ears), wide shut. Hader definitely gets it.
I love to hear him talk about moments with his parents. His dad was such a gateway into film for him and you can tell from how he talks about them they were super supportive. Ah hell, I just adore this man. He's such a lovely soul. I could hear him talk about anything and it would bring me bliss.
I really like Bill Hader interviews, compared to a lot of interviews with writers, creatives, or famous people in general they feel very souless. But you can just see on his face, that he is really passionated about this. He also love uses voices which keep it from sounding boring, and is able to hold a conversation that holds more than your attenion.
loved this. thought I was gonna stay for a minute or two, but I ended up being sucked in and watched the whole video. all love to bill hader. no such thing as a guilty pleasure! if you like it -- you like it! can confirm: ozu can do it all, whether it be rip your heart out or asking you to "pull my finger." might queue up evil dead tonight, haven't seen that one yet.
so cool of you to share this on here for those of us outside of north america who can't have criterion thanks so much!!! it'd be so wonderful if you uploaded the clips of bill talking about the virgin spring the american friend and a couple of other movies i love hearing his insights :)
Bill Hader mentionning Jean-Pierre Melville made my night. I can't wait to see what he does next (after Barry, which is amazing). Thanks to you for uploading this!
"I don't like Fight Club or the Matrix." LMAO!!!! Awesome, same here, Bill. Nice to hear I'm not alone. 'Taxi Driver' was the first video I ever rented, Loved hearing about first 'Evil Dead', I had bought the first or second issue of Fangoria magazine and that was the cover story. Sam Raimi was interviewed and I loved reading about the making of it on the fly as they were learning.
Echoing RedWolf Paper, this also increases my respect for the guy. Genuine, not pretentious and like a cool dude to hang around with. My movie education happened in my teens, there was/is a public channel in Australia called SBS (set up as an ethnic channel in the early 80s) which showed foreign films, tv shows and documentaries. Quality stuff, and 100x better than the commercial channels, which showed the same movies - think vacation, European vacation, etc. Remember, that Oz had only 5 channels in total - 3 commercial and 2 public - until the 1990s when cable came in. I think that if i'd had an older brother or father, etc,. who was a cinephile or audiophile, I would've got into quality stuff earlier. But then again, maybe it would not be until i was ready to be exposed to those sounds/images in my teens that I could appreciate it. thanks for upload, nick
Clint Oakwood it’s crazy because when he started talking about watching movies with his dad I immediately thought of Clockwork Orange because he had a poster of it in his office and I was so interested to watch it so I watched it young and of course it stuck with me so when he said Clockwork Orange I went 🤯

Yes, and also his ambition never was to become an actor in the first place, but be the maker behind the camera like you said.
He reminds me of my dad and that is why i like him so much
He's also been a guest at the Trailers from Hell podcast.
The more I see of Bill, the more I like him. He’s very endearing
“It’s no taxi driver” is such a funny way of calling something average
This is now my favourite interview with Bill, like you can see how passionate he is about film. 😍

Have nothing new or smart to add but I love your comment ❤ "in all sort of ways"
Hello Internet that made me cry
He's in love, thank god.
He's always struck me as a genuinely happy person. And it rubs off on every person that watches him. Wish there were more people like him
@David Calderon That too makes me smile...in a way.
Bill Hader just seems like one of the best, most genuine people on the planet. I'd love to watch movies with him.
I think out of all the interviews I've watched with Hader, this guy asked him the most interesting questions. Good stuff.

If you watch that movie and decide to open a fight club you missed the point completely.

@@galeforce3192 Ewwwww (Salo) 'puts the wife and I in the mood'. LOL
I've just bingewatched Barry and now I can't get enough of Bill Hader. 😢
Same here, I have been a fan since Season 3 came out
I'm totally with Mr Hader on Eyes Wide Shut. Its one of my favorite films that gets better the more you watch it
He can take me in a movie date anytime.
10:30 "I'll show you the life of the mind" is a great pick-up line.
I like watching him talking about movies. A total cinephile.
I could listen to Bill for hours. What a man
he really has the most impeccable and sophisticated taste in films that I've ever seen.
wow i can hear him talk for hours. love how passionate he is about movies and that part with guilty pleasures is also very sweet 💞
Bill Hader looks like the Dr. Jekyll to Quentin Tarantino’s Mr. Hyde.
Lol. why are you so right?
This is the greatest observation ever
Make it happen Hollywood
8:13 "Shut up, Hader"
Holy shit that's kind of a genius joke
This is so good. I watch Hader because he's kinda goofy but this is the first time I've seen him genuinely love the conversation
Every movie interview or podcast with Bill gives me a movie to watch that I've never heard of. When I heard Edgar Wright and him swap movie recommendations I thought "Of course".
Anyone who wants to make a movie but is not sure if they even can needs to look into the making of Evil Dead. Bill knows what he is talking about.
This is probably my favorite interview with him. I adore it so much because you can tell he’s so in his element here talking about something he’s so passionate about and it makes so happy that he gets to just talk and talk about it however he wants to. I love movies and I love this man!
how can anyone hate Eyes Wide Shut? Kubrick was a crazy genius. Go get'em, Hader!
I hated that film too, and so did most of my friends. Only one friend of mine actually enjoyed it. I attributed this feeling to the fact that Kubrick died before finishing it. Must admit that Bill's reading surprises me, I didn't get the "ridiculous" part of the story. Why did you enjoy the film ?
I absolutely love Bill. I cannot express this enough. As a fellow movie buff from a very young age, I love the passion. Such a good and funny dude.
So nice to see a side of him that isn’t seen often. It’s lovely how passionate he is, and it’s more like a conversation than an interview. You can tell he’s really enjoying it.
He looks so happy and cute I love him 😔😔
That scene in Taxi Driver when the frame shifts to the hallway is one of those perfect moments in cinema. Scorsese just gets it.
It's just mind-blowing that a 10 year old child would get that visual language. Hader had it in him since childhood, apparently
As soon as he said he loves Eyes Wide Shut, I hit the like button. This dude is a BAMF who must be protected.
12:21
Yep, that impressed me, too. It's the late, great Stanley Kubrick's swan song and much of the critics and movie going public, seemed to me, to have their eyes (and ears), wide shut.
Hader definitely gets it.
LOL !
This made me a die hard Bill Hader fan
Welcome to the club
Children of Men is one of my favorite movies. Cool that he mentioned it.
His movie taste and experience is so similar to mine, even down to eyes wide shut, when hes talking about learning about directors from video boxes...
Guilty pleasures implies you're ashamed about it. Bill is above that
I could listen to him talk every second of every day for the rest of my life
Guilty pleasure is such a bad term. No one who talks about their "guilty pleasures" ever seems to convey a feeling of guilt.
Bill is a treasure!! An he holds up with time
Love Bill. Defo agree with him about Eyes Wide Shut, hugely underrated.
Is your avatar a picture of James Caan?
Bill is such a true lover of Cinematic Art because he can appreciate every form of it.
I just adore this man.
Hader mentions two movies, which I feel sheepish saying, I had never heard of. Barry Lyndon and 8 1/2 both look very interesting. Thanks Bill
Kubrick and Fellaini. Your journey discovery of great cinema is just beginning. Good luck.
@@williamdowd3985 Felini. :)
"I'll be be back all the time!" Oh my god he looks so happy, like really happy. Now the pain of losing Filmstruck is even worse. F
He's so wonderful. So handsome and funny and smart. Love this guy so much.
Raising Arizona is so damn funny! Seen it a dozen times and it just gets better every time I see it.
I love to hear him talk about moments with his parents. His dad was such a gateway into film for him and you can tell from how he talks about them they were super supportive.
Ah hell, I just adore this man. He's such a lovely soul. I could hear him talk about anything and it would bring me bliss.

i would love to have a movie marathon with him

I cannot believe that Bill Hader hasn't his own "verified" Twitter, Facebook, CZcams nor Spotify presence!
My family was a movie family too. I once put it that we demonstrated our love to each other by watching movies together.
loved this. thought I was gonna stay for a minute or two, but I ended up being sucked in and watched the whole video. all love to bill hader. no such thing as a guilty pleasure! if you like it -- you like it! can confirm: ozu can do it all, whether it be rip your heart out or asking you to "pull my finger." might queue up evil dead tonight, haven't seen that one yet.
Thank you so much for this interview! Bill is my idol!
best interview of bill so far (im watching them all) - i was dying for someone to ask him about movies and JUST movies 🙌
Nice interview. Larry King says "you must listen", when performing an interview.....this guy gets it.
Sub'd and looking forward to more.
Well done.
during the taxi driver story bill says he was 10 three times, and then the interviewer asks how old he was. he wasn't listening very well.
Dude thank you so much for posting this interview, I'm in love with it
why does he look so damn good here?

Its very awe inspiring that he is absolutely in love with movies like a little kid.
I can't imagine watching Taxi Driver as a ten-year-old. i saw it when I was twenty and it traumatized me.
8:30 is the funniest goddam thing ever
Really like this interview and want to see more!
I also loved Eyes Wide Shutter Island Of Dr. Moreau!!!
Bill Hader is my spirit animal
Fantastic interview. What a down-to-earth guy.
2019 and Bill Hader is emerging as the alpha pappie. Who knew?
pappie?
Great interviewer. Consistently concise questions that elicited a lot from Bill Hader.

He should have his own movie.
There should be a movie about the making of Evil Dead. It would be hilarious and inspiring.
Was 11 when I saw Taxi Driver Fell in love with Cinema or moviegoing Thanks for introducing me to a true fan
Shout out to "children of men" one of the top 10 movies of all time in my opinion.
Strange coincidence how I wanted him to talk about Clockwork Orange and he did.

@@limetreess , he has a poster of it in his office? Bill Hader?
I was thinking the same for Taxi Driver
Bill Hader and Patton Oswalt need to start a movie podcast where they just talk about movies nonstop. They’d probably be the next Siskel & Ebert.
that barton fink story!! relatable
btw hader needs to play a super crusty slimy horrible villain, i would probably like him as an actor after that loll
What a great idea for a CZcams channel. Way to go, Pedro. Make some more of these!!
Please.
Oh, breaking my heart here. Casablanca is still one of the greatest films ever. It's so wonderful.
Thanks for posting this! Really cool
Eyes Wide Shut was awesome!!!!
I love Bill's comedic undressing of it. It could be funny out of context.
owenhunt Haha. Eyes Wide Shut’s alternate title really could be “Tom Cruise is Tryna Fuck.”
I wish I could just sit down with bill and he show me all of his favorite movies I feel like I've missed out on "important movies"
This is such a good interview and also one of the many times I'm like Jesus where Bill and I the same person reincarnated???
I love this guy, so honest in his views.
I have yet to see any other Ozu movie, but Good Morning instantly became one of my favorites ever.
cant wait to see bill win a lifetime achievement oscar, guys a legend.
Barton Fink is an iconic first date movie tbh
great interview
You’re the hero for non us people who can’t access the criterion channel thank you! Any chance you could upload the Michael cera one please?
Yesss!! Sound Warehouse was the best!!
Hader singlehandedly restores my faith in the future of the human species . . .
