RIP, Robert Downey Sr. This film only grows in quality over time, and is so resonant today.
No, I say he is just relaxing with a friend. This whole thing would be PTA's idea. This guy is his hero, and Putney Swope is one of his favourite film oddities. Even the character Buck Swope (Don Cheadle) in Boogie Nights was named after the movie. And Robert Downey Sr. is even in Boogie Nights, as the guy who owns the record recording studio, the one who does "mp" and yp" scene, "my problem" "your problem" scene.
He was also in Magnolia as a WDKK Show Director.
One of the funniest pictures of my youth. Just watched Sr. What a guy!
and if you don't feel that your the creative type jump right in and help someone with what they are doing.
RIP
To the actual

Now I understand Jr's Tropic Thunder performance! Haha. Excellent...
"That's not an MP that's a YP. Your problem."
“Ok, I’m not familiar with this industry jargon. ‘MP’ and ‘YP.’ Just give us the tapes!”

i wish they'd had the two of them do a commentary track for each film.
Lol RDsr is like a tougher more brash version of RDJ😂😂😂
I can see where RDJ gets his confidence from lolll
one of my favorite films of all time - EXPLAINED FOR SQUARES
It seems fitting that PTA would love this film as a man who went on to become a master filmmaker. He didn't know what was possible and this film, albeit amateurish on purpose, showed some of that.
Putney Swope: far the funniest film I have seen since Blazing Saddles. It's a masterpiece.
what a great series, sad it's over now.
Even five years ago I didn't think it was over - slowing perhaps. Eleven more have come out since, including some very good ones, and we'll see what the future brings.
"Have a ball, baby" is my favorite line in any movie ever
RDJ has his gestures, his nose and his laugh ... They're a really beautiful family :) ♥
You know he would give Robert drugs when he was as young as six years old, right? Not exactly beautiful. 😂
Seeing this film this Friday and I can’t wait
RIP Bob Downey Sr.
RIP legend. Rest easy
Where is that quote from PTA? I've been looking for it and Google brought me here.
This is legendary! 🔥❤️
Thanks for your thoughts.
lol at PTA drooling over the actress in the fan away commercial. "My Girlfriend" lmao
The origins of Robert Downey, Jr. 's particular comportment.
I like that Paul is basically laying down for this
It looks like he even shaved...
A true cinematic classic.....
It amazing that Paul payed tribute to him in Licorice Pizza.
The first time I heard about Putney Swope was when I was working at a book store while completing my first degree at WVU. A college girl came in and wanted to know if I could order it for her. She talked about her love for the film for a good while. This was right before the internet became a thing, so it wasn't easy to see an out-of-print film like Putney Swope. I watched it a while back on the Criterion Channel. It's okay, but I think it's a classic due to how subversive it would have been at the time.
I hate that these videos aren't on the DVD
And sadly, neither is POUND even though PTA mentions it mistakenly!
Howard Stark lol
gtfo
HA XD
this interview actually makes me understand a bit better, why his Junior is the way he is ^^
Love this/
best thing on youtube.
Downey Sr. was a stud...
Damn, I gotta revisit Putney Swope. Been too long.
Never saw this. On Tubi for free
did he ever explain why he put his voice over the lead actors? I want to hear the original voice
I've read that, as hard as he tried, the actor couldn't remember his lines and there wasn't time to recast
Can someone explain the mounted fish joke? I feel dumb
The fish is small--like the fisherman.
and, game wardens enforce laws that require you to release fish too small to have spawned, to prevent dwindling stock.
True genius.
Define the Criterion Collection style...
Man I need to see this movie, looks great lol.

Dick Gregory??
It's obvious the lines were dubbed.
Martha's [Plimpton] mom was really hot
Ha! Sadly no..
SWOPE!
Robert Downey Sr. sounds like Alan Alda so bad!
Sounds so different than his son.
Goodnight sweet Prince.
LOL IRON MAN DOESN'T HAVE A DAD ANYMORE 😂😂 SMOKING THAT ROBERT DOWNEY SR PACK RIP BOZO
Other than the drug part I think Robert Downey Sr raised Robert Downey Jr pretty well because RDJ IS A FUCKING SWEETHEART
Mark Focus
Licorice Pizza… for Robert Downey Sr (A Prince) 😭
Did they explain why that was part of the Criterion Collection?
Well I could... I could.. Try! To eat! an air conditioner! But I don't think I would like it.
That scarf is 100% necessary, just by the way.
Family, what robert downey jr did we do with our latest in 2004? 👮👩⚕️🚫👰🍼👼
Roberts dad is a lot more cooler than him.
+Jack Ryan I think both are cool in their own way.
Oh totally, for forcing him to do drugs and almost killing the poor man
Anna Skywalker Holmes yup
Not true!
Anna Skywalker Holmes doing drugs is cool
Bingo Gas Station signing in
Haha.
1:45. Rosario Dawson???
CoreyReviews she would have been -10 then haha.
Is P.T.A. unhappy to be there, or is that just how he always acts? I mean this fourth part he doesn't seem so bad, but in some of the earlier ones, it's like he wasn't keen on all this.
He’s just really laid back.
Is the interviewer relaxed or what ?
Yes, he is, and he's not just "the interviewer", that's Paul Thomas frickin Anderson
4:05 gf
That black man.... looks a lot like Robert Downey Jr. o_o
Jeff Hocker it’s dick Gregory show some respect
Rasict
A prince? Or a putz
God free .....dj vlad
Mediocrity.
All my hipster friends made me watch this movie once and it really sucks. The jokes are college improv level, the acting is average to poor, and the voice dubbing of the main character is just annoying. It may have been funnier in its time, but it doesn't hold up to the extent that it is worthy of preserving.
it's more of a message movie; than a ha ha funny movie, idiot.
You didn't even understood that it's a fucking satire.
Typical moron
Sorry, I need to edit my previous comment. All my hipster friends made me watch this SATIRE once and it really sucks. Also, some douche bag online thinks that it being a satire somehow mitigates how unfunny and amateurish it is. The jokes are college improv level, the acting is average to poor, and the voice dubbing of the main character is just annoying. It may have been funnier in its time, but it doesn't hold up to the extent that it is worthy of preserving.
Putney Swope is an absolutely God awful movie.
