ABOUT THE OXFORD UNION SOCIETY: The Oxford Union is the world's most prestigious debating society, with an unparalleled reputation for bringing international guests and speakers to Oxford.

It must have been an honor for those students to meet John Adams himself.
And Jerry Heller.
Chuck Rhoades.
And Nilo Nemolato
And Miles Raymond.
one of the most underrated actors
y, he did great as far as i know.
I agree 100% I have always liked his acting
Not by me!
He has great potential but he prefers to keep it low I don't know why but he seems to expose himself that's why he's underrated
@@isaaclouis219 He applies equal maximal effort to each of his roles and appears to have a genuine love and fascination with narrative mediums and the role of the actor. He is an A-list celebrity who earns top dollar but who isnt a blockbuster actor because his craft better suits complex character roles, not roles that target casual movie-goers.
Dude is awesome on Billions.
The end of the second series was such and amazing piece of writing and acting.
He is the star of the show, really.
@@Atombender He carries that show.
his voice is just amazing
i think he has one of the sexiest voices!!
Amazing actor. Loved him since seeing him “Sideways”, where he was incredible. More recently have been enjoying his talents in “Billions”. A masterclass in acting, he has such command and presence.
Very underrated actor, glad he's getting recognition for his talents
Insanely talented guy. No matter how “bad” the project is as he says and feels, he does an amazing job. He fits in every character! My favorite actor ever.
I fucking love Paul Giamatti. He's absolutely killed it in some of my favourite films. Incredible actor.
I love Paul. Such a smart guy and wonderful actor
John Adams was just amazing
Paul Giamatti is one of my favorite american actors - he made me laugh so much in his funny movies and he did impress me in all his many good other movies. There are not many actors from Hollyweird that I would like to meet and talk to - but you, Sir - are a real and true Exeption. Thank you Sir.
He is adorable.....I love him in every movie he's in!
I would have definitely loved to see Paul speaking Russian as the Rhino. I love that he's honest about productions that were not the best and why. He's been in way more good things, however, and always been the best part of everything he's in.
Billions is definitely my favorite thing he's been in recently. His acting + Sorkin's scripts = screen magic. The show overall is so well written and acted. It's one of my favorites.
EDIT: This interview was made before Paul started drawing again while in quarantine. It's hard to hear him be so down on himself and his abilities here, because he's really very good!
OMG, he said he does not like his voice. He has such an interesting and sexy voice. I love him. He's such a great actor and so underrated.
I can listen to him for hours..
Wow, she really jumped right into it 😅
yeah, like a rabid attack dog
Such a great job guys. Paul brings such amazing characters to life. No matter what situation they are in, he finds a way to bring you in, care for his characters. They are endearing. In his latest character, I want him to succeed. I want him to stay above the corruption. I see him trying, but failing, then trying again. Such a great performer.
With actors...it's in the eyes...watch the eyes...Paul has amazing eyes 😨
I LOVE THIS DUDE. what an actor!
so damn good!!
hes so damn talented
he is next level in billions! and then i started watching his movies and hes great
One of the finest method actors ever! love Paul Giamatti.
i remember this lovely guy from the movie "the negotiator".
deff saw some before n after, n loved it. whish to see him acting in hamlet :)
thanks to all for the "interview", every day u learn smth new is a good day.
Paul Giamatti was soo good in AMERICAN SPLENDOR. He didn't look like Harvey Pekar, and yet he *became* Harvey Pekar.
This was amazing. Thank you. Paul is even more awesome to me now.
Great interview and Q&A. Paul Giamatti is probably my favorite actor. I've seen the movie adaptation of Rhinoceros and I think he would be amazing in that role, which in the film, was played by Zero Mostel.
Pretty cool, I actually watched the John Adams series just a couple of weeks ago!
The first time I ever saw Paul Giamatti was as Marty Wolf in the movie Big Fat Liar and he was so great in that. He is one of my favorite actors!!
American Splendor ❤
One of the greatest actors I’ve ever seen.
She did a great job.
I love his acting he is the best
The way he speaks and behaves himself in that interview is a real role that he chose to play in this life , I am not saying he behaves the same way as he behaves on screen and that is bad, I am saying THANK YOU ,Paul that your play is real in real life , and you feel the same emotions like you want your characters be like and feels like for your audiences
I love him
He's a great, great actor.
Awesome interview, the whole rhino thing made me think of Marc Ecko with his company Ecko Unlimited
I like his voice
He's an actor, he's doing his job. He shouldn't have to apologize for the characters he plays.
Agreed
After watching John Adams, its hard not to see how underrated Paul Giamatti is
Been following his career for 20 years I've never heard of him being underrated
Love him
💗 wish I could meet you some day Paul, you're the whole package.
Whatever you do, have a whole lot of fun doing it.
I love, respect and admire you.
Me too! Me too!
Fantastic actor.
Chuck!
This guy and Steve Carell are serious gems
I love how every interview he has is heavily concentrated on his work and talent, not private life and gossip.
Me encanta
This "Let me have a country" John Adams clip is some of his best, serious acting ever. Just breathtaking:

When you think about it, he was right. How many people in history have been able to choose and configure their our county?
Wowww ...Paul is, "In the house" 🏠 ..."Welll playeddd 🎭🖼
Wow Marty Wolf really let it all out on the table here
Humble of Paul to do this gig
Whatever you say, Wendy. You're the boss.
I like their discussion on how we (audience) like darkness in characters.
like why does everyone love the sith and Darth Vader? it represents our dark side or our hate, and also passion Color red represents passion (rose)
and Darth Maul is completely red... Almost shows that if we follow our feelings to closely, the emotions will consume us. The Jedi warn Padawan about this... and most Jedi stay "single" because of this. Passion can be destructive. and as an audience we love this in sports, movies, books... it's very visceral and engaging
that voice, chuck~
this is what the tuition gets you.
He was awesome in Sideways.
Yakkun One of the best movies of the 21st century!
Yakkun just sae that last night
His dad, Bart Giammatti, was president of Yale University, president of the National Baseball League and MLB Commissioner.
his voice is sooo sexy! can't believe he does not think voice is great. granted, he hears his voice differently than we do, but he sees his movies at least at the premier so he should know how amazing his voice is!
I fucking love your movies. Now where are you when I need you?
It's a little surprising that in a packed room at Oxford, few were familiar with "Rhinoceros".
Would love to see his character work.
Who is the guy above the mantlepiece?
Where is the Jordan Peterson talk? Why has it not been uploaded yet?
"Miles I'm going to get laid on this trip and you're not going to fuck it up for me with all of your depression, anxiety and neg-head downer shit!"
Paul can you please play your father in a movie
Like him but just be honest,played Rhino because the paycheck was huge.
TRES Cool
Short, fat, bald, and amazingly talented. There is hope for the rest of us.
Fat? Jeez.
@@jasonwilkerson9497 Paul described himself as “short, fat, and bald” in an interview that I watched a few years ago. His words not mine. I think he’s an amazing actor and have enjoyed every performance I’ve seen him in. Have a great day!
I sometimes get him mistaken with John DiMaggio
Hope he shows up in Downton Abbey 2
Barney
Hamlet? How about Stephen Paddock - the ultimate American enigma?
I like to see Paul Giamatti take care of business
Awkward intro, but that’s nerves - it’s a pretty amazing man in front of her
I can't believe no one mentioned Dr. Satan. I'm so upset.
OMG, I just found he is the boss in the TV series Billions, I love his acting, hahahaha
"I couldn't be a cartoonist, I would have been ridiculous"
The ultimate character actor.
Paul's one of those gentleman that looks and behaves like they have read all the books in those shelves in the background.
Paul had his Julia Roberts movie pairing in My Best Friend's Wedding!
23:45: The wine.
John Stockton of acting
Tim the Gatekeeper!!!
Its so difficult not to see Chuck Rhoades and not the Paul isnt it?!
Anyone here after The Holdovers?
New Haven's finest.
20:00 what is hottie dressed for?
The way this guy pronounce the “p” is unique
imho P.G. would make a great World Leader when cometh the time powers no longer control God given free things.
P.S. P.G, I love listening to your voice Sir.
21:10 All the Meisner actors in the room: "Blasphemy!!!"
Dude it's so interesting that he hates his voice. His voice is one of my favourite voices in the world, along with JK Simmons, George Clooney and Antonio Banderas.
Older interview i know but ban phones, so disrespectful
WNnnnnnnnBC!
[스푸너리즘] 죽은 사람을 모시는것은 즐거움이라고! 라고 방귀끼듯이 앉아서 주변 사람들에게 자기처럼 흰옷입은 사람들에게 말하는 듯한 흐릿하고 어둡고 나무로 된 집에서 걸터앉아 불의잔 같은 그림을 보고 내려놓더니 하는 헛소리..그렇게라도 잠시라도 주의환기해줘서 꿈속이지만 고마웠어요. 엉터리같고 엉뚱하지만 너무 현실적인 말보다는 그냥 헛소리가 좋기도..힘들어서...Paul = 콘스탄틴 외국인 근로자가 일하다 주워버린 칼 그림처럼 그대도 파란 불의 잔 그림을 교실에서 들더니 내려놓고..즐거움이라고..이건..죽은 사람을 모시는것은 즐거움! 이라고..왼쪽에 있는 사람들을 향해 적막하고 축축하고 습한 공간을 밝히는 재밌고 인간적인 말투와 표정. 그것이 나에겐 즐거움이라고 나도 말할뻔했지만 속으로만 동시통역하듯이 생각. 그대가 즐거움이라고 말하는 듯한 느낌을 주자마자 나도 동시에 그런 말을 해서라도 기분전환시키려는 센스가 있는 그대의 존재가 꿈속이었어도 즐거움이라고..폴 = 즐거움...이렇게 사전적 의미로 순간 저장해버렸다고 굳이 쓸데없이 친절하게 애정표현을..아 체력딸려..
끼가 있음. 권위감없는 교수 스타일..항상 방귀끼듯 말하지만..so what ? 이러면서 주변을 다독이고 힘내게 하는 역할 paul
wow. don't agree with his take on John Adams. he played John amazingly. but, to say he was horrible? John and Jeffersons relationship alone helped guide laws and balance of everything about the show. and, how American is now.
Holdover man
Oxford uni and there all yanks !
Too bad most of the audience couldn't see him and the interviewer. Why weren't they on a raised platform?
Right?! I would have been so annoyed 😅
#FreeSpeech #FreeTommy #FreeBritain
John Lloyd Scharf 1 out of 3 🤷♂️
Gavin McBride; none of three. There is no free speech or free Britain if there is no free "Tommy."
John Lloyd Scharf Well we have free speech (hence why his organisation exists). And I’m pretty sure we haven’t been successfully invaded in just short of 1000 years. But anyway...
