      35.45 - "What's been one of your toughest time as an actor?" - I'd say Franco's toughest was trying to answer that above question whilst trying to act as if he did no wrong.

    I ran into William Defoe at my local laundromat. It was just the two of us. I starred at him and asked the obvious: "Aren't you...?" He said yes. I apologized for disturbing him. He said, 'We're in a laundromat.' I loved the fact that their was no artifice no ego. We had a wonderful conversation. I ran into him again and his wife was with him. He introduced her to me. If I had my wits about me I would have asked him and his wife if they had time for a coffee. He was gracious and totally genuine. By the way, the laundromat is right down the street from my small apartment in Paris.

      a great story and just that one line "we're in a laundromat..." says so much about him and says alot about the difference between an actor, an artist and craftsman and a celebrity who can't be bothered by the serfs and common folk. An artist is one of the common folk, which is also how he hones his craft. Great story.

      I wish I could remember it, but I was like 2 at the time. Defoe and his family stayed at a lodge that my parents managed for a family gathering or reunion or something. When they checked in, they interrupted my dad and uncle watching Platoon. They were flabbergasted because they didn't initially recognize the name when they reserved their place at the lodge. I have a photo of him holding me. My parents talk about how much of a gracious person he is.

      Same with critics. So called American critics didn't actor favourable to 'Dead Man's Shoes', one of my favourite all time films. But on rotten tomatoes 50,000 members of the general public gave it a rating of 91%.

      If CZcams actually starts putting ads on non-monetized videos by creators who never asked for them, that just goes to show how greedy this corporation can be. This thought is disgusting. CZcams is essentially making free money off small channels and not paying them a single penny. Yes, these are small channels, but since there's so many of them, CZcams will still make a huge profit off of this new policy. I don't care if CZcams hates us now, it must be said by someone. I urge to our subscribers that we spread the message to all creators, and urge CZcams to immediately repeal this new policy.

      @@itzelmayoral729 I think it's just that they wanted to make sure they didn't speak clumsily. It's a huge, heavy topic, so a quick response could have come across as glib. And of course it's uncomfortable: every male actor these days has gotta be wondering "did I miss an opportunity to do something about this? Have I been in a situation where I ignored a sign and let one of my female colleagues get harrassed (or worse)?". Besides anything else, Tom's probably the most experienced interviewee out of all of them, so it's not surprising he has the confidence to jump in pretty quickly. I read it more as the others wanting a moment to think about it, rather than wanting to keep just quiet
