- Zábava
The whole conversation
Bridges: 'its like life man, you must abide.'
McConaughey 'alright, alright, alright..'
yeah, yeah, yeah
😂
You just gotta keep on abiding man A B I D I N
They listen to each other... THAT is RARE
Oh man, THAT is a masterpiece of concision..bravo
Jeff Bridges played the dude and never fully recovered after that.
The Dude never recovered from Bridges playing him.
he IS the dude! the dude's wardrobe in the movie? actually jeff's clothes. they literally are one in the same. the dude abides.
He's,. the dude!
They burned one on the way over.
I dunno , True Grit was great.
Jeff B is an older version of Matthew M
Very true.
damn I wish I could be in the room when the camera goes off. that's when the real convo begins
*Higher*
I like the whole cowboy thing going on
How right you are
Whoever put these two together is an absolute genius.
You are so right. They both so much care free and yet; so diligent at pulling off what ever character they play. Kindred Spirits.
Totally agree, they have such compatible energy like two lifelong friends meeting up again. Whoever looked at them and knew that deserves a raise.
how these two never met or worked together ? D: Respect for giving this opportunity
Before they even spoke, I was like hey they would be great in a movie together
Whenever I hear McConaughey tell a story, I feel like he sits up writing them the night before.
Matt S "the is Chicago John"
Trust me has a Rolodex of anecdotes for every situation.
Matt S 🤣
I think it’s the way his voice runs, it’s like a river, he doesn’t need to really think about the story because it flows so naturally.
I'm stealing this joke, but it perfectly fits your scenario: I'll write, I'll write, I'll write.
the way matthew sits makes him look like he owns the place
He owns everything he does. I just re-watched True Detective, multiple expletives that series is good. Have you seen Mud? Such a unique film.
Devo Davis yeah dude I've watched season one of true detective at least twice a year since it's release. So Good! I hope they can make season 3 as good as 1 because season 2 I didn't really care for.
I saw the video with no audio and i felt that too
He does own the acting space at the moment. He is the leading man in Hollywood, taken more seriously than DiCaprio.
I think he does 🤔
I agrre with Jeff Bridges, watching a film without knowing anything about it always makes the experience better for me
Amarina E. I’ve got to agree because I’ve found whenever I read a review or an opinion it can taint my impression, enjoyment, understanding, etc., of what I’m watching. The greatest disappoint in recent memory was Manchester by the Sea. I let myself get caught up in the buzz, so I see it, but by chance AFTER watching many of the other 2017 Oscar movies. To this day I can’t believe Casey won that Oscar. He sucked, the movie sucked. It SUCKED! How the hell did Andrew Garfield not win for Hacksaw Ridge? For that matter how the hell did Moonlight beat Hacksaw Ridge? Sorry off on a tangent...😃
ya im doing this thing where you have no expectations for a movie, then once you get out it just happens to be an amazing movie! im telling ya ive appreciated so much now that i have been doing this
That's why I love short teaser Trailers instead of this bullshit that we get now, Extended 3+ minute trailers that pretty much give away the entire plot, yes I'm looking at you DC Universe and Marvel. Superhero movies are the ones guilty of that the most.
Big time, trailers can ruin a film. The less you know, the better, and preferably nothing. The element of surprise is half the joy of watching a story unfold.
Yep. Same with books too. The best thing is to just dive in.
That foot grab tho
Jeff I know McConaughey is HOT af but @ 3:01 really LOL
because he totally spoiled the ending of his movie.
Lol,I was like what is this dude doing
Literally trying to unscrew it xD
Matthew was like “wait a minute, I’ve never felt this awkward before, stay cool stay cool alright alright alright”
The Dude meets Wooderson. It was fate. Who's cooler than these two? Nobody.
Alright, alright, alright... Well, that's just like your opinion, man
You are entering in a world of pain
The two of them should a make cross-over film...Dazed and Lebowskied
Mini Maxi Clint eastwood
Be a lot cooler if they had weed maan
jeff is a mix of my grandfather and the 14 yr old who smokes weed in my class
Ha,.. what an interesting mixture
Wtf kind of teacher lets kids smoke weed in class?
I would love to see them together, playing Father and son in a movie
Yeah a Coen Bros. movie. The Coens need to dump Clooney who can't act his way out of a paper bag. Hire McConaughey and Bridges.
Mini Maxi - I agree
AprilPie16 yes!!!!
McConaughey would've been a good fit in Hell or High Water as Chris Pine's role, but Pine was phenomenal in it tho
i agree. good movie. understated yet powerful acting by all (chris, ben foster, jeff bridges). movie needs more recognition
It's like watching a FATHER and SON bonding!!!! 👌🏼👌🏼💯🏆
The dude's son
I'm only 6 minutes in but so far this transcript would be 90% gibberish. And I can't look away
Finished the whole thing. Definitely not gibberish but those first 5 minutes were hilarious
Thanks for this comment! I was 3 minutes in and wondering if/when it would start making sense. I shall persevere.
NoodTayne hahaha jeffs response to the first question confused the fuck outta me. thanks for making me feel sane.
Its a Dada masterpiece
Haha I thought I was alone, too. I'm glad u found this comment thread. :)
The Dude and mini-dude.
I love that first bit of dialogue. Here's how I heard it:
Matthew: "Can you tell me about that?"
Jeff: "This is a hard part, uh, you know, of uhhh, acting, you know? Let me give it to you as best I can, uh, you know. Certain things have come to light, and uh, ya know, has it ever occurred to you, that uh, instead of uh, you know running around, uh uh, blaming me, given the nature of all this new shit, you know it, it it, this could be a uh, a lot more uh, uh, uh, uh, complex, I mean it's not just, it might not be, just such a simple, uh... you know?"
NorthWriter best CZcams comment I've ever read
NorthWriter I'm dying laughing here😭😂
I died had my funeral and came back just to upvote damn youtube comment of the year lol
😂😂
More like 'let me school you son.'
Jeff Bridges complaining about Matt giving spoilers about Hell or high water, what a man.
Lucas Vieira Galvão yea he shouldn't have told people thay ben foster died in the end
Jeff Bridges is like a warm blanket on a cold winter's night, so soothing, so familiar. I just want him to wrap me up in his arms and hug me. God, I love this man!
i love when Jeff grabs his leg
He can grab my leg anytime👍
These are the kinda guys you don’t want to be late for.
I lived my whole life in total anticipation for the exact moment where Matthew McConaughey and Jeff Bridges bro five and to fist lock and I have to be honest.... I can die feeling Alright Alright Alright.
Without feeling like the good Lord gipped us
The moment I saw Matthew McConaughey deliver the closing argument monologue in A Time to Kill, I knew he was special.
txmoney he should have gotten an oscar for that scene alone!
I've been dead set against the idea of a Big Lebowski sequel...until now! McConaughey is soooooo The Dude's son! Someone make this happen!!!!
Julie Ann Moore is his mom .
McConaughey is so brilliant with words and story telling… it’s hands down why his reading of his autobiography is one of the best listens ever. Mind blowing to see someone that good at their craft aligned with their path
The lead singer from Cooder Graw (Matt Martindale) & McConaughey were best buds in College.
They're Both:
😐 TRUE to Their Craft!
😑 Ain't "Mind Blowin'!" if you're from Texas!!
For the first time ever McConaughey seems like the little brother in a conversation. I can just tell he really admires and respects Jeff like a father
Two of the most handsomest men in the movie industry. Both seem to live their own styles and not what is Hollywood. That’s why I appreciate them as actors. Love both of their craziness.
Jeff Bridges 👍🏻
The other not.
@Batman
I respect your opinion but I really like Matthew. He's a really charismatic and inspirating person, also a great character actor.
McConaughey is like a young bridges
Jeff bridges laugh at 21:26 😂😂😂😂😂😂😭😭😭😭
Ok E.g smith he is so joyful! 😍🥰
Like a mariachi grito.
This exchange was a spiritual experience for me.
hammervasara me too man! ☮️
Southern hospitality
That moment at 22:19 was so genuinely wholesome how they both got so giddy. You can really tell that they're both cut from the same cloth in how they approach life.
This is probably the best one so far, they make an absurd situation like this feel very natural and relaxed
Two men with minds way out of my ballpark. It's amazing getting to see these gentlemen as themselves and not characters.
Jeff sounds like he always has peanut butter stuck on the roof of his mouth.
These things happen, man.
@Monkee Media negative ghost rider
Haha, that is the best description of his speech. He *always* sounds like that.
🤣
He's made a great living from that voice. 👍
This is like, the most chill interview ever.
You feel like you just wanna roll a joint with these dudes
Jeff Bridges is the most humble human being on the planet ❤
Jeff Bridges telling Matthew McConaughey one of his stories about Kevin Bacon. Good stuff.
“Effortlessness takes a lot of effort.” Bingo
This is one of the best ones. For some reason I learned more about acting in these 31 minutes than I have in the last 40 years as a film fan. I felt like I got a very pure insight into the art. Thank you.
Great chemistry between the two.
This is a fascinating exchange between these two. McConaughey has this wise, salt of the earth, no nonsense approach but whatever he's gathered from all of it Bridges will blow up any little pretense that exists in it. He's coming at it sideways everytime. McConaughey responds to it, paying attention to everything. I could honestly watch these two for 10 hours.
Jeff Bridges might just be the coolest person ever to live
andrew allan thanks man!
M.M had his Big Lebowski moment as " The Beach Bum". That is a cross over, we all want to see. 👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍
McConaughey's laugh gets me everytime.
I like how after he grabs his foot at 3:00, Matthew brings his foot down... yes he puts it back quickly after but was just funny to me.
Variety chose 2 really great actors who had a lot in common to sit down and chat for 15 minutes, good job guys.
It's as if this was destiny.
We're watching galaxies colliding.
That long-ass, drawn out-ass horse story was inspirational as hell.
like father and son lol
coming in 2020
I thought for the longest time they were father and son.
Squid Inc oh man, that would be great! 🥰🥰🥰😍
1:55
And it was at this moment that McConaughey knew he shouldn't have asked Jeff Bridges this or any other question.
HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAAAAAA
God, CZcams comments are the funniest shit sometimes
Jeff is prob one of the few people that actually goes to heaven. That man is kind, honest and has the most serene/contented vibe the world has seen.
Amen to that
The Dude, and the Dude Jr.!
OMG I love this Actor on actor, brilliant!!
I would marry Jeff Bridges in a heartbeat, so charasmatic and I love his heart &art 🌺
I don't know why I love this conversation so much! 😄😂
Jeff's laugh is both soothing and terrifying at the same time.
It's looks like they shared a joint before filming this interview which makes it that much more fun
McConaughey is a great story teller.
Drink every time Jeff says “you know”
hahahahahaha you would be wasted
if you tried
Thank you for the party idea, now I'm in the detoxicating centre, lucky I survived.
Damn, this is two cool dudes! Awesome to get this kind of look into their work and how they think about it...
THE Dude and another cool dude. ;) Great interview all around.
I always loved Jeff Bridges voice idk why 💀 its like magic mixed with cheerios on a sunny day
They are having so much fun.
hahaha one of the hardest conversations to follow I've ever witnessed
same!! hahahaaa
Bridges just makes the person across from him feel so important so seamlessly... And they love him, they all love him. He's Magic... And not a bad actor either.
you could tell Matt M was catchin that Żen parable Dude was throwin out.
I would have killed to see Bryan Cranston and James Gandolfini.
mannnn...you brought tears to my eyes. I would have loved to see Philip Seymour talk to Heath Ledger.
As much as i loved Bryan Cranston's performance in BB, which was masterful, James Gandolfini was in a league of his own. In my personal opinion he was right up there with the likes of Marlon Brando and Al Pacino.
@@MrDarkkamui Funny, I'd actually say the reverse. In my book, the best acting I've ever witnessed was Cranston in the BB episode titled Crawlspace. Particularly the scene at the end when he realizes the money is gone. He's so good it sends a shiver up your spine.
Can you imagine these two having a podcast?
They can not find a better pair of actors than these two !!
please do a movie with Jeff Bridges as the father with woody harrelson and Matthew as his sons !!!!
Check out the poster for American Heart. Jeff Bridges looks just like Matthew McConaughey.
Daaang, you're right!
Nah not really
How have these two not worked together?
The old generation are the best in the way of conversations you can talk with them all night long .Jeff Bridge is the best open cool relaxed guy
18:43 The dude truly abides.
Matthew McConaughey is a great storyteller, he should try writing or directing (don't get me wrong, he is still brilliant at acting).
yeah you can see in most of these type of meetings his co-stars or the host or whoever he's talking to really gets into his stories, very good at telling them and they're all good stories, very open and most actors definitely don't seem to be
Its the Texan accent xD
@@hartia4584 nah man, it's charisma and it is almost pooring out of him
Just finished his book. (Audiobook) I really enjoyed it
It’s how relax he is. Dam I envy how calm and chill he is. I’m having nerve breakdown, panic attacks, social anxiety, embarrassment, blushing you name it.
He so relaxed he makes people relax, body language and it’s noticeable in his voice too. Plus I think it’s because his accent too, it’s not overpowering but just right lol
Just cool as can be, both of them.
Unbelievable pairing.
McConaughey's laugh at 24:34 LOL
Same laugh as Jonah Hill in War Dogs 🤣
best part of this is 2:59 where Jeff double grabs Matthews ankle and foot. Legend.
Matthew - a man of confidence and personal power!
two of the best bad ass good boys...
Each scene of "The Big Lebowski" is like candy, dear Jeff. Thank you. 💜
Jeff is the coolest, he is definitely up there with McQueen.
Could easily pass for father and son…two brilliant actors
2 best voices in Hollywood
I need jeff bridges on audio in a quiet tone saying "just relax man" would be the best destresser in the world
The Dude and his protégé
Imagine going on a road trip with these guys!
I love how interested in acting Matthew McConaughey is its so inspiring
Love these two! Matt McConaughey has been my crush for years! And Jeff Bridges is such a cool actor!
He's very very good looking
Wow, they are so adorable...I feel like I am watching a father and his son. Great pairing Variety!
Matthew's face when realizing he ruined the ending really expresses that he thinks his career is over LMAO
Best Interview ever
I love Jeff Bridges laugh.
Matthew is without a doubt the coolest human being in the world.
Such a legend conversation ! What a actors, there are some of my favorites. They should do a movie together. Look at all their amazing filmography jeff bridges (king fish, the big lebowski, crazy heart, true grit, tron, heaven's gate, starman, tucker, king kong) and Matthew McConaughey (contact, killer Joe, Mud, Interstellar, True detective, Gold, the wolf of wall street, dallas buyers club, paperboy) !!!
Legends, amazing work
So much charisma in this room.
Two icons!!!!!
I need more of these two please! They are like the perfect duo
I feel like Matthew is always in character Lmaoo his voice is just great
Jeff Bridges is the coolest, nicest guy on the planet and in my humble opinion the best actor going.
love jeff bridges.
