    Always glad to hear an Albert Brooks interview - and he's great here - but why on earth don't they talk about his career as a director? He's a great actor, but his genius is in his filmmaking. What a wasted opportunity.

    I discovered Albert in the early 80's. There was a syndication of SNL, and his films were some of the funnier things! He has worked in every field I cherish. His projects have me wonder if was he who gave me my sense of delivery, and timing? I enjoy dry, but silly humor. Sometimes, I come out with good stuff. He is an endless fountain. Today's funniest man. I respect, and love this son of a bitch. He got Goldie too!

    Oh my... Watch this if you want to see an interview with an actor about movies, with break for audience to watch the movie clip, but the filmed interview we watch doesn't show the movie clip. I continued watching ONLY because I'm a fan of Brooks and hoped to learn more about him. And the low audio level made a chore of watching and trying to listen to this recorded interview. Geesh!

    I have preached the GOSPEL of " ALBERT BROOKS " for 30 years. His Genius is obvious and if someone doesn't get Mr.Brooks in a Movie ..........I know they aren't smart enough to hang around.
    " DEFENDING MY LIFE " made me reflective about my childhood and lead to therapy.
    When he did " MOTHER " and did the froasty Ice Cream and speel on the frozen cheese I peeded on my couch. So Albert owes me for one steam cleaning !! LOST IN AMERICA made me cry and choke and his other work is a mark of a brilliant man.
    Albert moves me, makes me think and makes me laugh and I would love to cut his grass just to spend time with him. Not in a creepy way ....I could sleep in my RV just down the block.

    Would've much rather heard about Lost in America, Defending Your Life, Mother, etc., all of which Brooks seemed to want to go more into. But, instead, he has to talk about The Scout and I'll Do Anything? Come on!!!

    Yup, comments are correct, we want to hear about his creative genius! He makes beautiful movies about life and it’s absurdity

    For the people whining about why they don't talk about Brooks' own films, the whole point of the evening was to talk about Brooks as an actor in other people's films.

    I can't believe they don't showcase the 1st Act of his film Modern Romance. Flawed, but it's got such a great beginning.

    Dear CZcams: please stop removing film clips from interviews like this. The "fair use" provision of copyright law allows for using excerpts from media when doing reviews or discussing works of art. The law is supreme, not what giant media corporations demand. Teach your robots to respect fair use. It's the law of the land. 🇺🇸

    Albert
    Why IN THE WORLD would your parents name you Albert Einstein ???? For Christs sake !! So that you would become a successful in show business ?? You know Albert....a lot of people would like to hear from you once in a while. Just a good comedy once in a while. YOu make it look so easy. Is it? Well then just a movie a year lets say. Kind of like Woody Allen. Shirley you could make one little movie for your dedicated family of fans . We're still here. Forever waiting....waiting ...waiting for you to appear before us and entertain us like you used to in your hilarious movies. Just one a year for a while and then we'll talk. Thanks Albert. YOur the best !!

    Almost no discussion of his career as a filmmaker, but great questions about when Albert Brooks first sensed George Clooney was going to be a movie star. Pretty disappointing really.

    Interview Albert Brooks and ask him about his acting? Real Life, Modern Romance, Lost in America, Defending your Life. C'mon guy-at least Kubrick knew he was great...

    Albert Brooks is a "today happening" kind of comic. If you need this explained, you don't really know Albert!

    Am I the only one that expects Albert to show up on "Curb Your Enthusiasm" some season? Maybe as the brother of the late Marty Funkhouser?
