I never knew Orson Welles interviewed Andy Kaufman. It's rare to see Andy just being himself. :lol: TMC 02-20-2021, 06:50 AM Thanks for posting this! I never knew Orson Welles interviewed Andy Kaufman. It's rare to see Andy just being himself. :lol: If you only know (https://shepquest.wordpress.com/category/kaufman-andy/) the "basics" (https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=16020548) about Andy Kaufman's public persona (https://www.buzzfeed.com/jordanzakarin/andy-kaufman-influence-on-comedy)/image (https://azdailysun.com/man-on-the-moon-carrey-captures-the-complexity-of-andy-kaufman/article_a330cb4c-95f0-568a-a398-17964722780d.html), it is kind of weirdly refreshing to see him (https://www.openculture.com/2017/12/the-improbable-time-when-orson-welles-interviewed-andy-kaufman-1982.html) behave (https://www.reddit.com/r/ObscureMedia/comments/khwo77/orson_welles_interviews_andy_kaufman_on_the_merv/) "normally" and humble and down to earth. I heard that Jerry "The King" Lawler didn't get along (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0MhvbVDzw5M) with Jim Carrey on the Andy Kaufman biopic because Carrey stayed "method" (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=82rKQXEG7bQ&t=1s) in his acting in-between takes. The real Andy when he was around Lawler, didn't act like his heelish wrestling persona when the cameras were turned off. |
