      Peter you're not listening properly. Rose isn't poking any fire. He is interrupting with useless clarifications that don't need to be made and disrupting the flow of conversation. This is egregious interviewing. Stop trying to make a flaw look like a technique.

    One of the most important things I ever heard was Harold Pinter's acceptance speech, "Art, Truth and Politics" for his Nobel Prize on December 7, 2005. Pinter spoke of the comfort cushion that Americans flop on whenever they need to escape something that demands attention and action.

    I was at school with Harold Pinter in 1944 but sadly i cannot really remember him it was the emergency school set up before the return from Kings Lynn.
    I remember we used to go to our shelter quite often a basement cloakroom ,the toilet was situated by the railway arches next to the Woodwork Hut, we had to run very quick and often saw a doodle bug fly past.
    Sadly i never made any mark on the world , i was one of few scholarship boys from Hackney Ii went to Kings Lynn but my mother dragged me back to London where I went to Parmiters until the school reopened at Hackney Downs.
    I was a Gentile but unless to was a Jewish holiday it never mattered.

      Charlie Rose had it easy. If you compare this to one of the few public interviews he did in the 60s and 70s, in this case with Melvin Bragg you'll see what a golden opportunity Rose has here. Pinter chatters away about light but mostly weighty matters. Had never been thus.
      Still, Pinter probably always needed drawing out so this blunderbuss style of Rose worked.

    • @tantotonto

    After Pinter quotes WH Auden, at 18:21 Charlie Rose immediately tries to match Pinter by confidently attributing another quote to WH Auden. Pinter looks and sounds a little surprised at hearing this - he evens seems to subtlety give Rose the finger. Pinter’s reaction is probably explained because Rose is actually quoting William Faulkner.

    Extremely interesting conversation with Harold Pinter. He is left to express all his wisdom and charm when he talks about the Theatre in the first part, while he is not left to finish his sentences in the second part, when he denounces the violence and arrogance of the United States foreign politics. There the interviewer’s interruptions become unbearable. Luckily, Pinter doesn’t lose his temper and firmly, clearly, using the best words the English language possesses, defines the US’ violations of International Laws and Human Rights and why. And the interviewer interrupts again, laughing and bringing superficial, pop arguments. Nothing has changed. Thank you, Mr. Pinter. We still need your words, very much ✨✨✨
