My friend worked as a carpenter with Harrison once. They were working on a big producer's home. As they were working, he asked him if he had done any acting lately, and he replied, "Yeah, it's called "Star Wars." My friend asked him what it was about, and he said, "it's like a space opera. Check it out and tell me what you think." My friend saw it that week and was so excited about it that he had to tell Harry that night, and went to his little house in the Hollywood Hills to tell him that the movie was going to make him a star, but nobody was home. He knew Harry always kept his kitchen window open, so he crawled through it, found a piece of paper and a pen, wrote a small note, and left it on his refrigerator door. On it he wrote: "Dear Harry. Your carpentry days are over."

Recap by Tammy AI
? This was really necessary ?
I love Ford's humour, and the fact that he doesn't take himself, nor the films he's starred in, too seriously.
My favorite Ford film is "A Clear And Present Danger"
Nobody ever says this, but Regarding Henry is my favorite Harrison Ford movie. There’s more feels in that movie than the rest of them combined.
I just watch that movie last week. It’s not a bad movie. It’s a good story.
Im almost at the end of the vid and they are talking about rolls well after RH which is why Im looking at the comments to see if anyone remembered this movie. I did like this movie very much as well. I do like Han and Indy as his best movies and characters though. Not when he was in Disney Wars or the new Disneyanna Jones movie as they eviscerate Indy in a movie no one asked for. I really liked Mosquito Coast as well.
I love this movie.
That’s a good point. I can’t believe he didn’t bring up REGARDING HENRY. I honestly forgot about that movie. Thank you for bringing it up.
I loved Regarding Henry, a very touching film. Another one I liked was Sabrina, a remake of a Humphrey Bogart and Audrey Hepburn film.
Outside movie stardom, as a regular guy he seems genuinely cool.
An old RAF buddy of mine got chatting to him at a hotel bar/lobby and Harrison graciously came over and joined him and his family at their table for a while. I think a bit of aviation talk would have been the connection!
Well, it’s no wonder because Harrison has a pilots license. He has his own plane that he pilots.
My husband (retired Navy F14/F18 pilot) told me Harrison has been known to take photos with military personel and that he has several planes.
I don't think he hates Star Wars, he just gets irrate with people who think he's a fan of Star Wars.
He is not.
If you wanted to talk about Star Wars as a film, a project he worked on, he's fine. But when you talk about it, like it really happened, he has none of it.
Mark Hamill said that while filming Star Wars, Harrison Ford had a notebook with him where he would write things related to the character of Solo, creating, for himself, a background story to justify Solo's actions and demeanor. You can't hate something if you are that involved.
I think the perception that he hates Star Wars comes from the fact Lucas denied him what would have become a legendary cinematic heroic arc by having Solo die to save his friends and loved ones. I would have hated to see Solo die back then, but also, I can recognize he had a very good idea, and can understand what bugs him...
Also, it would be fun to read what he came up with for Solo's motivations!
Harrison Ford will always stand out for being himself. His acting is beyond reproach and there will never be another man like him.
he sold out big time with the latest Indiana Jones
Ridley Scott did not make Ford do the voiceovers; the studio did as they meddled in Scott's film.
Years later when Ridley Scott released the Director's Cut, the voiceovers were removed.
Sally Kellerman remembered Harrison Ford working on her house shirtless and said it made her late for the studio.
Completely misleading title! He never said he “hates” Star Wars. He’s repeatedly clarified that he didn’t like the fact Han Solo had nothing to do in Return of the Jedi and that’s why he wanted him to be killed off, “It’s not that I wanted Han Solo to die. I wanted Han Solo to be able to lend some significant emotional weight to the story.”
I've never liked Return of the Jedi. It was obvious Ford wasn't on form in that film. Its not on level with first two movies IMO
I've enjoyed way more of Harrison's movies than critics suggest I should.
Iconic voice
As far as I’m concerned, the mummy with Brendan Fraser is Indiana Jones four. I think it was a much more interesting, supernatural force than aliens
Did the narrator intentionally mangle the pronunciation of names?
I really liked him in 'Blade Runner' and 'American Graffiti'.
harrison ford is an incredibly underrated and legendary actor. he made a character like indiana jones extremely popular while also appearing in a legendary blockbuster franchise star wars. harrison is a funny actor and unique in its own way.🙏respect to a livin legend. yall should acknowledge this eighty year old man.
Witness is my favorite. It's Peter "WEER" (Weir) not "Wire". Working Girl and Regarding Henry come up close behind it.
That's not the only name he got wrong; he mispronounced Roger Ebert's last name at least twice. And Anne Heche, Nick Nolte, too. I wonder how thorough the biographical research is if they're so casual with the pronunciation of names. And there were at least two gross mistakes between the narration's stated gross on films, vs the captioned amount. I enjoyed this biography of Harrison Ford, but these mistakes kept distracting me.
@@davidnaegle427 Yeah, I caught those too. These narrators need to check these things.
In addition to names he mispronounces a large number of words too.
The voice-overs and cut scenes in this video are hilarious, when they're mismatched. My favorite one is when he talks about The Fugitive being one of the first western films to be shown in the modern PRC, but the stock footage is of Kim Jong Un.
It’s a pretty bad effort. I like how he goes from talking about a movie that came out in 2000 to his 1979 divorce in a blink of an eye.
Harrison Ford was to me what John Wayne was to my mother. After John Wayne died, Ford was one of a few actors who took his place in her heart. She really enjoyed "Raiders of the Lost Ark" and "Air Force One" the most.
Wow....Ford iznt DEAD !!!! 👎👎👎
My favorite movie of his will always be Witness💯💕
My Dads
ONE OF MY FAVS TOO!!!!!!
Ridley Scott either clearly did not understand the whole point of "Do Androids Dream of Electric Sheep", or did not actually read the book.
It is clearly stated Deckard is NOT a replicant. It changes the point of the book, if he is.
@@redskeleton8504 I didn't say anything about the film, nor did I compare the book and the film. You did.
If your ability to comprehend what's written is evidenced by your assessment of my comment, you likely missed the point of the book as well.
the original story is absolute garbage, as most of PKD's are. Often good ideas marred by terrible writing, dialogue and plot.
A Scanner Darkly being one of the exceptions where, despite the rotoscoped movie being great, the book was even better.
need to re-read Man in the High Castle as skipped that one in reading PKD's material the last year or so.
p.s. what was the point of "Do Androids Dream of Electric Sheep", because it sure as hell didn't answer the question!
@@strangevisions5162 Let's agree to disagree about the quality of PKD's writing. For me, Dick's books never fail to provoke deep consideration of the idea behind them so I consider them to be among the very best literary works.
Often, what he doesn't write is more telling than what he does and I think his subtle style is probably the reason some people don't like his writing. If you haven't already, try reading Ubik.
The point? What does it mean to dream? It was a contextual examination of dreams and how they influence, or indicate, our natures.
I rate movies based on whether I like them or not. Has nothing to do with the money they make.
You sound like my kind of person. It's primarily about the art, not about the money. Ironically, if they cared more about the quality of the movie rather than the bottom line, then there's more chance that the movie will be more successful, much more successful.
Not one word about Ford's all-time best performance ever--Regarding Henry.
Count me in there. A Harrison Ford retrospective that's more than 5 minutes long and you don't mention Regarding Henry???
Yeah, how could that movie not be mentioned? He was irresistible in that movie.
I really enjoyed the movie, but I can see the point. Hollywood never portrays anything accurately.
Some facts are incorrect in this video.
It is not true that Han Solo survived because of toy sales. That is an urban legend. Lucas always cared about the story first and foremost. He wanted a happy ending.
The disney trilogy is not Star Wars 7-8-9. Those movies are in an alternate universe according to George Lucas, and according to in-universe logic.
And it"s not just Harrison Ford is finished with Star Wars, disney is finished with Star Wars as well, because what they do is Disney Wars.
For the people saying "who can hate their cash cow?". I had what people call a great job working 30 hours a week making 120k a year and I HATED it! Not the job, the people. Now I make FAR less but enjoy what I do. It's worth it.
...me too, that's why I choose to work 2nd shift and I love the moment when I stay alone to work in peace :)
@@IksinskiTomek yup, I work alone at night while blasting my music. No people, no complaining, no BS!
Thanks for this. Nobody but Ford could play Han Solo. Except one. Star Wars was partially inspired by Akira Kurosawa's magnificent film "Hidden Fortress," which begins with two fools in a desert, helping a princess find a pirate adventurer to regain her throne. The Han Solo character was Toshiro Mifune. I really liked this video except that I'd much rather hear Harrison Ford's trademark sexy growl than the narrator. Please let the actors speak for themselves rather than telling us what they are saying.
You forgot Regarding Henry =/
He's an incredible actor. I'm surprised he hasn't received an academy award.
He already did, life time achievement award!! To you, he's good actor but to some directors!! He's an ok actor!! Even Tom cruise is a good actor but never win same award as Harrison ford!! Tom probably will win same award as Harrison, life time achievement award!!
@@user-iy7bx7nr8v Ford > Cruise...
Just because he's been in top grossing movies doesn't make you a great actor stupid people make other stupid ppl famous all the time.
Hence, fast and furious.
Because he doesn't do the type of roles that get awards.
Also, he's extremely good in his comfort zone, but he seems to struggle outside of it.
He should have received an Oscar for playing Han Solo.
i like harrison.....haven't seen all his movies, but the ones i have seen....i think i've liked morning glory the most.....i'd never seen him....banter and he does it so well along with never seeing him like THAT before. sweet movie.
Ford certainly changed what a supporting actor meant in the industry. I think, my two favoutite leading roles of his were Hannover Street, and Bladerunner.
If George did say that he didn't kill Han for toy sales, I don't think he meant it.
George always resented the idea of excessively killing off main heroes in his films (at least at the time).
keep in mind he didn't want to kill Obi-Wan and Yoda either and only did so because his wife and Kasden respectively talked him into killing them off.
I think the deluded Aspie lives in some fairyland, where good people don't die and live happily ever after; that and he's not any good at writing, so he didn't want the stress of building any new characters. And what's all this "George" this and "George" that? All of this overfamiliarity with a complete stranger is stalker level creepy!
He gave a good answer to "Who shot first?" "I dunno...and I don't care."
That was a horrible answer. By having Gredo shoot first it ruins Han Solo character's edge.
"Regarding Henry" was a touching film.
I had no idea he was a carpenter at one time though in the film "Witness" when he picked up that wood plane and used it his action shouted wood worker.
Even in his older age, he is still good looking. Love his humour, too.
I am 4 year younger than Harrison and my college tuition was $224 a year ... That's not room and board but tuition only ... So I find it hard to believe Harrison's tuition was $2000 a year 4 years earlier... Just saying something is off with the numbers being reported....
EXCELLENT bio. Very complete and well-researched. Kudos!!
The Blade Runner voice over was not Ridley Scott's idea. It was done by the producers after the movie was taken away from Ridley. Also they didn't shoot in the Ennis house, they re created it. Enjoyed ur video, lots of info I didn't know. Cheers!
All the interior stuff, yes. There's one shot of his car coming through the gate in the rain that was shot at the Ennis house. Supposedly, one of the balcony shots was also done there, but I've never been able to pin that down. It could be a set, or it could be on the property. No real way to tell.
he seems to be honest and humble
Excellent video. ❤ excellent bio on a classic man in regards to his work
I don't consider myself better than Spielberg -though perhaps a little more creative. The fact is that most Spielberg films are just nostalgic imitations of earlier movies, that may have had a tiny amount of Spielberg's budget, but better scriptwriting and storyline. But to beat these 2 movies: Indiana Jones and Star Wars to death with sequels realy exposes Spielberg's weaknesses.
Harrison owes his career to the franchise.
seems rude to put down the franchise. Feels like he is gathering lime light to himself. LOOK AT ME.. i DID IT ALONE. Even saying he was lucky, callously minimizes what others did behind the scenes.
@@trevormiles5852 true. He would have never have gotten Indiana Jones if it wasn't for Star Wars, and Indiana really made his career. After that he was a full on blockbuster A lister. But it all starts with SW. Even Leonard Nimoy, who truly hated Spock, came to understand and respect the character in the fullness of age. Harrison just seems to have gotten crankier. Like a lot of actors, he trivializes science fiction because of its nature, but he fails,to see how mature it's become through the years.
Love Harrison Ford! One of my favourite actors ever!
Is the narrating voice AI or something!? Almost every name is said wrong! It's so weird.
the fact he acted in two big money franchise films speaks his talent at something.
And he says “some of the actors even got nominated for a golden raspberry” like that was a good thing! No, it’s not!
Great bio video. Did not come off as just another unproofed AI video. Appreciated. Great work, I enjoyed the clip.
He strikes me as a man who doesn’t suffer fools gladly.
Must have made it super hard working with the morons on Indiana Jones and the Dial of Dysentery then.
Except now he does.
It's not a "Jim Morrison concert". It's The Doors.
Being 13 years old, Blade Runner was awesome. All my friends thought so too. Sure it tanked at the b/o, but it kicked ass.
Hi acting style has been imitated, but not matched. Doesn't mean his acting style is universally liked.
You either like him or you don't. Fortunately for him, most people like him, so he has had a great career.
I liked him from the beginning, and thats just me. 🙂
Where is Sabrina?😢
20:10 , 20:44 , 42:18 Congratulations on two million subscribers! ;)
Imagine being forced to do the Star Wars Holliday Special, wouldn’t that alone cause you to hate Star Wars?!
You can literally see the moment on screen he starts hating Star Wars ! Watch the scene when Leia is singing to the Star Wars theme at the " Life day " celebration, the look on his face is hilarious!
Shrinking is really good. Can’t wait for more!!!
Hey, Biographer, Great job! im not gladhanding either. This was a great bio of Harrison and entertaining, solid voiceover. nice research, answered many questions i'd had. Not too slow, bunt not rushed either. thank you
9:25 He couldn't even pronounce his name correctly FFS!
1:03:51 "The WWII actor's plane crashed..." 😂
Mr. Harrison Ford Make It Happens!
Very Very Good Movies!🏆🏆🏆🏆🏆
KALIMAAAAA !!!😎🇫🇮
I think Kurt russel could've been a good Han Solo too.
Kurt, would have been a *better* Han Solo. He also loves, and appreciates his fans. Ford? He’s a well-known prick…
hmmm...that's good...he could have
Too young at the time, and his Snake Plissken, gruff persona had not yet been established. Harrison Ford was perfect!
@@celluloidtherapy5003 Prick? In what way is he a prick?
Except your talking about 70s Kurt Russel.
Kurt Russel wouldn't hit his stride until the 80s.
I've been around for a while love Ford all my life for him it's a Job is a Job back then he hated fandom. You could tell he loved the love from Force awakens and Blade Runner at the cons. Old man now
Top 10 actor of all time!
25:55 -- that's not Christopher Plummer, that's Frederick Forrest (who died recently).
I thought he was great in Falling Down.
Hard to imagine a world withou Harrison ford
Is the narrator a bot? Some mis pronunciation happening here.
At 20:11 you have displayed 3 million not 300 million as verbally stated. Just letting u know. Cheers.
My absolute favorite movie Harrison Ford played in is "ENDERS GAME"!
As I have read this book ( at least 3x), the character was very strong and brought a sense of reality/emotion to the role.
And there is "Indiana Jones and the Ark of the Covenant", fabulous work...
I enjoyed Ender's Game right up untill the part were they told the characters that they had been participating in a real battle and that it wasn't a training excerise. I'm sure that worked in the book, but in the movie it fell completely flat. I could see what they were trying to acheive but it just didn't trasnlate onto the screen which is a shame as it was pretty much the climax of the movie. There was simply no reaction in the theatre. That always stuck with me as I wondered how the director and producer couldn't see this when they were working on the film. Cheers!
It´s Raiders of the lost Ark, not ark of the covenant. The fact you couldn´t even get that right..............eesh...
@@sonykroket Possibly a title used in a foreign country???
@@dsolosan could be
Haha it's pronounced
Rip in ...Ripon college ;) I live there
Mispronounced Roger Ebert‘s name too
"He got five hundred thousand dollars" ...caption shows 5 million ...
one of my heroes thank you sir 👏
wish the narrator's voice was more pleasant
He was in "Carnal Knowledge" with Jack Nicholeson and Candice Bergen!
Temple of Doom was released in 84, not 85
Thank you from a solid fan.
Learning that What Lies Beneath was written by Phil Coulson (Clark Gregg) 🤯
The numbers made me cringe everytime they came up on screen wrong. Also, the mispronunciation of such famous peoples’ names: Francis Ford Coppola, Peter Weir, Anne Heche, Ivan Reitman, Roger Ebert, etc. Drove me crazy.
...a story from The Mamas and the Papas’ Michelle Phillips as she settled in to watch Star Wars for the first time on the big screen, only to gasp: “That’s my pot dealer!” when Ford appeared on screen, much to the eternal surprise of the singer (“I didn’t even know Harrison was an actor.”).
entertaining video, thanks. Note, though, your texts on screen don't match what you said at 20:12 and 20:45 :)
“In 1985, Indiana Jones and the Temple of Doom ..”
‘85?
1984!
1984!!!
‘Hollywood homicide’ remains one of my favorite (comedy) action movies of all time…
You do not fall in love with another, you fall for them.
Love is one package, all the same and sacrificial.
Passions for the flesh are NOT Compassion given.
It is not “Jason SeGol”.
This narrator pronounces incorrectly the names of SEVERAL famous personalities. WEIRD.
Thats because the narrator is AI
An Interesting video that is spoilt by it's many errors.
This is inspiring. I'ma do some acting exercises on my day off, just because.
22:37 - Please note - The Jonathan Ross Show interview with Carrie Fisher was March 2016, not 1976.
32:06 Temple of Doom was released in 1984. Get your facts right
Why REGARDING HENRY is NOT included?
Interesting video
There was also "Regarding Henry".
His non franchise work in the 80’s was his best. I was there for it all and he wore it well.
Nobody else could have been Han Solo.
In*strongly* disagree.
It isn't just mispronunciations of proper names. The entire script is littered with errors of grammar and non-sensical statements. Written by AI; I'm really starting to believe that the Dead Internet Theory is actually correct.
Seriously...the mispronunciations are crazy!? What human being has ever said Nick Nolt instead of Nick Nolt-EEEEEE.
and Evonne Reitman
And Anne Heche.
Oh my god, is this a deep fake robo-voice narration? This can’t be an actual human on an entertainment/pop culture type channel who doesn’t know who Roger Ebert is (Ebb-ert) or even Peter Travers (Tray-vers). The biggest move critic of all time and one of the Top 5 or 10 most well-known movie critics of all time, respectively. I try to be respectful of anyone who puts in the time to create content like this-but at the same time, this is the dude’s job. And also botching Ann Heche’s pronunciation (Hetch? WTF??).
New Subscriber to this amazing channel. Can you do a biography of Max Von Sydow or Stellan Skarsgård, Thank you 🙏
The Union Station pictured in the clip is in Toronto.
Hello
I was working at a house in LA back in 1976 ish
Hanging Wallpaper
Harrison ford was there making a water bed for the owner who's name was Fred Roos it's was a dumpy house in one of the caynons in the area
He's was a real Pro and his work 2 to none
This I think was before Star Wars because at that time I remember him as the guy who drove the 55 chevy in American Graffiti
It's how it was back then
Good times.
While your biography is filled with good info, your graphics and name pronunciation need a recheck. Some dollar amounts need correction. Additionally, please correct your pronunciation of French words like "denouement " and names like Ebert and Travers to name just a couple. The errors are glaring and yank the audience out of the commentary.
Ford is right, he has not much he has has to say. If he weren't given script, who knows what he would say that would be worthwhile.
🤗Harry's got about a dozen films that I love even though he doesn't and that's all good🤗
The Fugitive was my film.
Please do Gary Oldman!! 46:46
