Richard Harris 1994 | Camelot, Brando & Why He Quit Hollywood for 5 Years | Dini Petty

Описание: Richard Harris, star of Camelot and Unforgiven, sits down with Dini Petty in March 1994 at the exact midpoint of one of Hollywood's greatest comebacks. After a decade of forgettable films and semi-retirement, Harris had clawed his way back with an Oscar nomination for The Field and a scene-stealing turn in Unforgiven.

Here, promoting Wrestling Ernest Hemingway with Robert Duvall, he tells the full story of how he did it, including the lie he told to knock Marlon Brando out of The Field and the hotel room transformation that won him the role of Bull McCabe.

Harris passed away in 2002 at 72. A generation knows him as Dumbledore. This conversation, unseen for 30 years, captures the real man behind the legend.
