HST: Charlie Rose Interview

I promised myself that after the all the videos I posted this past year I was going to refrain, but I can't help myself on this one (er..oops, several). I found this interview with HST. You know, all things being equal, Charlie always got a good interview out of Hunter and this is no exception, HST seems genuinely engaged and delighted talking with Charlie.

Favorite quotes:

A work that aspires, however humbly, to the condition of art should carry its justification in every line. (quoting Joseph Conrad)

A lot of things look very simple, until you try to do them.

He's destroyed the standard of what's fun in politics for good people. I think once I said that Nixon was great because he brought the best people into politics and Clinton's going to be famous for driving all but the worst ones out.

I have a few more favorites in the 3rd segment, but I'll leave them to be discovered.

Buy the Ticket

Here I go. Indulge me. Mind you this bears little resemblance to the novel I experienced (it's a trailer after all), but it sure looks like fun. Bruce Robinson directed and wrote the screenplay (I loved Withnail and I).
