JM is so mysterious. He plays such cold characters, he's so quirky, and yet he strikes me as so very sweet. Clearly a highly intelligent, complex man who has managed to remain really humble despite his stardom. 😍
He says as a boy he was beaten up every day by his brother and his mother did nothing to stop it. He drew on that brother for certain characters he played.
Craig, in my humble opinion, is on par with Johnny Carson. When he left the Late Late Show, he left a huge gap in entertainment. John Malkovich is precious, as an actor and as a guest. The awkward pause was the best.
Yes I what Johnny Carson live and I completely agree with you. I put Johnny Carson and Craig Ferguson in their own League. At ease with everyone and everyone at ease with them. A fact I even think the stars were sometimes more comfortable on Craig Ferguson show than they were at Johnny Carson.
Love and miss Craig's show on the air. John is so cute when he laughs, it's like a full-body giggle. Love his sense of humor too: "How do we know he's not a good actor?" 😂
@@jonathanrex My thoughts exactly. I'd enjoy his company. Any accomplished screen actor who would agree to do a completely demented movie like "being John Malkovich" must be a cool guy
His accent is intriguing. I guess it is from living in different countries? Doesn't seem weird to me. He just doesn't adjust himself for the talk-show setup. I admire him for that.
These two are the best in terms of chemistry, both so intelligent, charismatic and gifted with extremely delightful personalities/ who actually have interesting ideas to share. The talented Mr Malcovich is himself on and off stage it seems with a slight variance in range from comedic to villainous roles, but always endearing somehow which is his magic. I could watch these two interact all day, it would be addictive. ❤☺
John Malkovich is one of the best in my opinion. He looks like a guy you could just hang out with at a bonfire and talk forever about anything. He just seems like a very wise and nice man✌❤
Craig's show was mostly about Craig... and that's what works best for him. The stature of some guests requires Craig to be a bit more attentive and interrupt less. Those of us who love Craig would rather see him doing his goofy quick-witted persona, but I think it shows a measure of maturity to scale it back for certain guests. I thought he was just fine with Malkovich, and Malkovich showed appreciation and good humor for Craig's humor numerous times. Actually, I'm amazed how well he does with the prima Donas like Harrison Ford, Keanu, Morgan Freeman, Anthony Hopkins, Russel Crowe, et al. The mega stars seem genuinely relieved to be on a show that treats them like normal knuckleheads instead of the huge celebrities they are. Craig had immense talent for putting these folks at ease (as much as these people can ever be at ease, anyway). Ah, Craig... we miss ya laddie! You've had your respite now, so why not return to being a late night douche? That would be great...
I subbed because I found myself watching tons of these. I'm from the UK so can only remember CF doing some Breakfast TV spots before he took off, but these shows are really good. I'm developing a new found respect for a fellow Scot.
Line delivery, timing, humor, subject matter, very refreshing and Being John Malkovitch throughout especially like his role in the aforesaid movie and Burn after Reading
Love JM giggles. It's so precious but none of these giggles compares to the giggle he had on Graham Norton Show when Asling Bea made him literally tear up with laughter.
No, it's nothing like a mockumentary. The title is literal and that's all I can really say without giving too much away. I guarantee you haven't seen a movie like it.
In both the opening and the closing of the first segment, they talk about him being on the show three years ago. I guess that means that it isn't 2/2 visits?
Definitely not underrated, or overrated. He's one of my favorite actors though. He often doesn't play the leading role, and typically plays supporting cast, or villain.
I 1st seen John in Knockaround Guys years ago, just recently getting into his movies and interviews and I'm sorry it took so long because this man is just excellent.
From an Austrian: Craig isn't entirely wrong here. Though we do speak a variety of German here, it is often at odds with "German" German, and we do use a lot of different vocabulary which is unknown in most parts of Germany.
@@MichaelVereno Maybe a bit like US English versus UK English? Or Brazilian Portugese compared to Portugese on Portugal? What do you think about the connection from Deutsche to Dutch spoken in the Nederlands?
By the way. There is 'winter white', just like the color John has on. You can find this color in many items of clothing made for wintertime. Wool sweaters. Wool suits. Wool skirts. Wool coats. Wool scarves. Leather coats, skirts, pants, boots, hats, gloves, All in winter white, which is a creamy white like John's suit. Anyway, winter does not really come to parts of the Southern USA. I think it's mostly some older people that needlessly worry about the propriety of wearing white in winter.
No, He is from Illinois. When I refer to him being a southern gentleman, referring to the refined men of the Southern States in the United States. He has a place in Lisbon,Portugal but lives on the East Coast primarily in the USA.

the thing that makes me really like Malkovich in this is that he seems to really dig Craig’s humour

I don't think the show had great ratings though. Yet CBS kept him on probably because they knew they had a gem.

Craig was better than Johnny, which is saying a hell of a lot
This guy is the perfect villain. Something perfectly psychopathic in his eyes. He would have made a great Bond villain.
Mn B he made a good johnny english villain

It's adorable to see how much Craig makes John laugh. Loved these interviews.
i love how he starts most of his answers with No...
Is it just me or is John Malkovich hilarious. He’s one very bright guy. I’d love to meet him in a pub, bet he’d be great fun.
Thought the same.. what a great personality to spend time with.
@@jonathanrex
My thoughts exactly. I'd enjoy his company.

It's a testament to Craig's witt and intelligence that John enjoys his humor so much and feel at ease with him

Malkovich manages to draw you in but makes you feel slightly ill at ease all at the same time! Utterly wonderful!
'A friend of mine, who was married to a very good friend of mine'...perfect.
**One of the MOST EXCEPTIONAL ACTORS on the planet!**
John Malkovich is one of the best in my opinion. He looks like a guy you could just hang out with at a bonfire and talk forever about anything. He just seems like a very wise and nice man✌❤

8:31 I'm jealous of the alternative universe where the John Malkovich Cooking Show was picked up.
Malkovich is not weird. He is genius. The best actor!!! I love him.
Man, this was the best Interview John has ever given. Craig does such a good job. Miss that.
I've always wanted to hang out with John Malkovich and Jeff Goldblum and just let them talk to each other.
John Malkovich is so underrated as an actor.
He has 2 oscars...how could he possibly be underrated
@@eas26 That is underrated. Because he is beyond the most talented out there.
No he's not
Malkovich is underrated? The man is a legend
Underrated to whom ? You?
john has a nice dark and calm sense of humor reminds me of john cleese and the dark British humor that they have in their sitcoms
"There are lots of things that people want that they shouldn´have." -John Malkovich
“It’s like a hot pond”-classic.
John Malkovich is one of my top 1 actors. Even without Finland mentioned. Big greetings from Finland!
Malkovich is not weird... he's an actor who's also an introvert.
That's why I like him. You can tell he enjoys Craig's outlandish humor.
he is VERY weird. Creepy.
And a genius
@@rhodamackenzie1105 He is not weird, unless genius to you is weird. It probably is.
@@EvolvedJewel he and Jeff Goldblum are weird in that Walken weird way.
I just love JM …isn’t he wonderfully warm and eccentric……he is so dapper!
blushing at his age,charming...
This was the oddest set of interviews and so oddly funny!
I'm in love with John Malkovich
Why do people say hes weird? He seems like the most normal person ever. You would never guess hes a world class actor. Just a total gentleman.
Ιf you cam make Malkovich laugh.. you are good.
wow they are well matched...these clips are treat. thanks, JL Fly!
“The last thing you want to do in a talk show is call authorities when the guest leaves.” 😂
I've always liked John Malkovich. He's an intellectual.
What a treasure this pair of interviews was. Thank you Jay Leno fly
I love it when he laughs.
Clickbait - he’s actually very pleasant. Funny too, great to listen to.
I subbed because I found myself watching tons of these.
I'm from the UK so can only remember CF doing some Breakfast TV spots before he took off, but these shows are really good.
I'm developing a new found respect for a fellow Scot.
what a reversed world we live in to have John Malkovich, the most normal person in the entire world called weird. completely describes the culture
Malkovich seems to enjoy and appreciate humor, but is rather awkward expressing his sense of humor. He's one of my favorite actors.
I used to have a massive crush on malkovich for years, it started after watching dangerous liasons... haha
Great actor, particularly in Dangerous Liaisons and In The Line Of Fire which happens to be one my favourite Clint Eastwood films.
Definitely talented and weird.
So is Malkovich.
Aaa ya see wadda did there?!
Not really. Wadda did ya do da di da?
@@szymongrabarczyk3561 lol
That circumcised conversation is gold. Only Craig can do that shit while being next to a dignified actor.
“They speak German.”
😂
Line delivery, timing, humor, subject matter, very refreshing and Being John Malkovitch throughout especially like his role in the aforesaid movie and Burn after Reading
I love that even the most ridiculous questions John will genuinely mow over the response before simply saying......."no." It is just so poignant.
He got him to laugh! This is a great interview… man Craig was so so good on another plane!!! Miss him !
Somehow, I wouldn’t mind listening to Malkovich for a whole day👏
And he seems more open in these interviews with Craig
Great personality and beautiful voice.
Love JM giggles. It's so precious but none of these giggles compares to the giggle he had on Graham Norton Show when Asling Bea made him literally tear up with laughter.
Ah wow ... I love John Malkovich !!!
I don't usually think so highly of actors; that they deserve so much praise. John Malkovich however is great in everything I've seen him in
Yes Malkovich is not just an actor. He is a movie star. They are a rare breed.
You don't appreciate the craft of acting? Are you stupid?
"So you came late to the surfing." Oh Craig :):):)
Malkovich has this hint of an English accent that is entrancing.
Huh? He is no American or English!
If you haven't seen, "Being John Malkovich" you should check it out. Even if you don't like John the movie is reality-bending and awesome.
bored312 Isn't it like a mockumentary kind of thing?
No, it's nothing like a mockumentary. The title is literal and that's all I can really say without giving too much away. I guarantee you haven't seen a movie like it.
I liked being John Malcovich
Malkovich. Malkovich? Malkovich! Malkovich.
Malkovich-Malkovich? Malkovich?
What a weird / funny interview. Love it.
The switch in video quality and clothing and pretty much everything between the 2008 interview and the 2010 one is crazy!
This is HILARIOUS. C & J are really good together!!
John, you are such a great story teller and I enjoy your acting.
I think Craig is so much better than anyone doing late night now.
I’m in love with John malkovich ! Love him so much!
Who doesnt??
Me too! 😍
Malkovich is fascinating
He was a damn good actor that chicken. This is the best interview anyone has ever done with him.
Clearly that was the best akward pause on the show ever.
The South Africa experience he's talking about is the movie Disgrace (2008)
In both the opening and the closing of the first segment, they talk about him being on the show three years ago. I guess that means that it isn't 2/2 visits?
Rikard Peterson 2003 would have been 1/2........
Mr.Malkovich is a very kind and talented human being .
Really neat guy! One of the more enlightening Craig interviews.
Realy?
Most underrated actor out there!!
I don't think he's underrated at all, anyone who cares about movies love him.
Definitely not underrated, or overrated. He's one of my favorite actors though. He often doesn't play the leading role, and typically plays supporting cast, or villain.
ricardo guajardo
Nice compliment.
He’s a terrific actor and I think well loved.
I hope that's sarcasm. A movie existing titled "Being [your name]" means you're everything but underrated.
Not at all. He’s an icon.
I'd love to just have some coffee with him.
you need Jesus
Watch **"RED"**
I liked these interviews..Loved John
I could watch these two for days.
Jophn Malkovich is a great American, and a brilliant actor.
I 1st seen John in Knockaround Guys years ago, just recently getting into his movies and interviews and I'm sorry it took so long because this man is just excellent.
I think it is so funny when one says no no I shouldn't say this ,he immediately insists no you can please do
Not how I expected him to be after watching Burn After Reading and Space Force
If anyone was wondering, in 2008 29000 euro was 42630 usd.
These weren’t bad interviews. It’s just that Malcovich is a little low key, so what? He’s an interesting guy.
he speak rly slow and is rly smart
His is just about 30 IQ points above Craig's and doesn't condescend by enabling him to be better.
@@bitcoinbelle
I doubt that actually.
@@jshepard152 okay
Should be making dinner but John got me glued to my chair.
That awkward pause = king slayer.
I still think the movie Being John Malkovich is closer to truth than fiction.
John Malkovich may well be the most interesting man in the world, no matter what the beer commercials claim.
LMFAO the bit about speaking austrian was gold
Austrians do speak Austrian though ;-)
It's cool to see that Osborne Cox is so popular
Oh I LOVE these two!
What an absolute delight 🤣😎♥️
some of the funniest interviews ever
I just saw him in Ripley's Game and loved it. He brings class and calm to every scene. Such a great actor.
Craig...one of if not the best interviewers !!
I like how John feels bad after correcting Craig that Austrian people speak German lol such a nice lad he didn't want to be a bitch about it !

We’re weird because we’re not on his level of genius.
John Malkovich and Michael Stipe should make meditation videos together.
+Stephen Wright
I think that this interview is hilarious! I can’t stop laughing.
I agree 😂🤣
My all time favorite collaboration would be John and Gary Oldman. My 2 favorite actors of all time!!!
This was awesome. Love malcovich.
He looks like a southern gentleman in his suit.
The first one, the white/beige outfit.
he is from south europe thats way
No, He is from Illinois. When I refer to him being a southern gentleman, referring to the refined men of the Southern States in the United States. He has a place in Lisbon,Portugal but lives on the East Coast primarily in the USA.
His lineage like mine was from the former Yugoslavia. My family was from Dubrovnik. Perhaps this is your reference?
I think he means like Colonel Sanders from KFC
