>> Jimmy: THANK YOU FOR COMING.
AL, BEFORE WE BEGIN, AND I'M
VERY EXCITED THAT YOU'RE HERE.
BUT WOULD YOU DO ME -- WOULD YOU
INDULGE ME AND SAY HILL LOW TO
MY LITTLE FRIEND?
>> OH, YES.
>> Guillermo: HI, HOW ARE YOU,
HOW ARE YOU DOING?
>> GOOD TO SEE YOU AGAIN.
>> Guillermo: GOOD TO SEE YOU
AGAIN.
>> Jimmy: WE'RE EXCITED THAT
YOU'RE HERE.
I KNOW YOU RARELY DO THIS AND I
KNOW YOU'RE UNCOMFORTABLE WITH
THIS SORT OF THING.
>> OH, YES.
>> Jimmy: I APPRECIATE YOU BEING
HERE.
>> I'M HAPPY TO BE HERE, IT'S A
PLEASURE REALLY.
>> Jimmy: I HAD THE HONOR AND
PLEASURE OF HAVING A MEAL WITH
YOU AND EVERY STORY YOU TOLD WAS
JUST GREAT.
SO TELL THOSE, WITH YOU?
[ LAUGHTER ]
>> I'M GOOD IN RESTAURANT.
>> YOU'RE GOOD IN RESTAURANTS.
SHOULD WE GET SOME FOOD, WOULD
THAT HELP?
YOU AS I MENTIONED, THIS IS YOUR
NINTH OSCAR NOMINATION.
>> YES.
[ CHEERS AND APPLAUSE ]
>> Jimmy: DO YOU STILL -- IS IT
STILL REWARDING, EXCITING, ANY
OF THOSE THINGS?
>> OH, YEAH.
YOU KNOW, IT REALLY IS.
I CAN SAY -- I -- YOU KNOW, BUT
NOWADAYS, THEY HAVE THE --
THE -- THE PREAMBLE TO THE
OSCARS.
>> Jimmy: YES.
>> A LOT OF AWARDS SHOWS.
SO YOU GET USED TO IT KIND OF
THING, BUT NOTHING IS LIKE THE
OSCAR, YOU KNOW.
>> Jimmy: THE OSCARS IS THE BIG
ONE.
>> IT'S THE BIG ONE.
SO YOU WONDER ABOUT IT.
SO YOU GET A SENSE OF WHAT'S
GOING ON AND SOME OF THE
CANDIDATES AND SOME OF THE
ACTORS WHO WOULD BE --
PARTICIPATE IN IT.
BUT YOU'RE NOT REALLY -- EVER
REALLY PREPARED.
LIKE I DIDN'T REALLY THINK I WAS
GOING TO GET A NOMINATION.
>> Jimmy: DO YOU FEEL IT'S BAD
LUCK TO THINK YOU'RE GOING TO
GET A NOMINATION?
>> YES.
>> Jimmy: YES.
HAVE YOU EVER THOUGHT LIKE, OH,
I'M GOING TO GET NOMINATED FOR
THIS, I REALLY THINK I AM, AND
THEN --
>> I DID.
>> Jimmy: THEN YOU WEREN'T?
>> YES.
>> Jimmy: YES, THAT HAS HAPPENED
TO YOU?
>> THEN THAT'S DISAPPOINTING.
>> Jimmy: THAT'S DISAPPOINTMENT.
>> SO YOU TRY TO AVOID THAT.
>> Jimmy: YOU TRY TO AVOID THAT.
THEN AS FAR AS GOING TO THE
OSCARS, YOUR FIRST OSCARS, WHEN
WAS YOUR FIRST OSCAR CEREMONY?
>> WELL, I KNOW IT WAS FOR "THE
GODFATHER."
THE FIRST "GODFATHER I."
[ CHEERS AND APPLAUSE ]
BUT I WAS UNABLE TO GO.
>> Jimmy: UH-HUH.
>> FOR THE REASONS I CAN'T
REALLY REMEMBER.
>> Jimmy: WHAT COULD HAVE BEEN
THE REASON FOR THAT?
>> WELL, I COULDN'T GO BECAUSE I
WAS ON STAGE IN BOSTON.
BUT I REALLY SHOULD HAVE FOUND A
WAY TO GO.
>> Jimmy: YEAH.
>> BUT I MADE A MISTAKE.
>> Jimmy: YEAH.
>> AND I WAS YOUNG AND KIND
OF -- YOU KNOW -- CRAZY.
[ LAUGHTER ]
>> BUT THEN I DID GO THE NEXT
TIME I GOT NOMINATED.
>> Jimmy: AND THAT WAS FOR WHAT,
"SERPICO"?
>> I BELIEVE IT WAS "SERPICO."
[ APPLAUSE ]
I WAS IN DOMINICAN REPUBLIC
DOING A MOVIE.
"GODFATHER II," ACTUALLY,
FILMING THAT.
>> Jimmy: OH, WOW.
>> AND IT WAS REALLY A SURPRISE.
YOU KNOW, WHEN YOU'RE IN L.A. A
LOT, YOU SORT OF -- THE PREAMBLE
TO IT, YOU'RE AROUND.
>> Jimmy: UH-HUH.
>> YOU KNOW IT'S IN THE AIR
ABOUT OSCARS.
SO YOU'RE -- YOU GET A LITTLE,
YOU KNOW -- BUT WHEN IT'S OUT OF
THE BLUE, LIKE IF YOU'RE IN NEW
YORK, IN THE OLD DAYS, YOU FIND
OUT YOU GOT NOMINATED FOR AN
OSCAR, YOU'D THINK THE PERSON
WAS KIDDING YOU.
>> Jimmy: YEAH.
ESPECIALLY IF YOU'RE IN ANOTHER
COUNTRY, ANOTHER TIME ZONE, ALL
THAT STUFF.
>> ESPECIALLY IF YOU'RE GOING
THROUGH A -- I WAS GOING THROUGH
A BIT OF A DARK TIME.
>> Jimmy: OH, YOU WERE, OH
REALLY.
>> I WAS BORDERLINE BREAKDOWN,
BORDERLINE MAKE IT OR NOT MAKE
IT.
>> Jimmy: DURING THE "GODFATHER
II"?
>> I WASN'T VERY HAPPY.
WELL, IT'S A DIFFICULT ROLE AND
YOU HAVE TO SORT OF GET INTO IT
AND I WAS HAVING A LITTLE
TROUBLE.
>> Jimmy: OH WOW.
WHEN YOU SAY MAKE IT OR NOT MAKE
IT DID YOU MEAN FROM A CAREER
STANDPOINT OR THE ROLE ITSELF?
>> NO, FROM THE ROLE ITSELF.
IT'S ALWAYS THE ROLE.
YOU KNOW, IN TRYING TO GET THERE
AND STUFF.
SOMETIMES THEY CAN BE DIFFICULT
AND TRYING AND MAKE YOU -- AND
CONCERN YOU ABOUT CERTAIN
THINGS.
>> Jimmy: YEAH.
YOU DEFINITELY GOT THERE.
>> OH?
[ CHEERS AND APPLAUSE ]
>> Jimmy: YOU GOT THERE IN LIKE
A LIMOUSINE.
>> BUT I MUST SAY, WHEN I HEARD
THAT I WON THE OSCAR -- I DIDN'T
WIN THE OSCAR, NO, GOD FORBID.
I DIDN'T WIN.
I WAS NOMINATED.
>> Jimmy: RIGHT.
>> AND I WENT INTO THE BAR AND I
GOT APPLAUDED.
PEOPLE START APPLAUDING ME.
I THOUGHT, WELL, THAT'S A FIRST.
>> Jimmy: YEAH.
>> AND ACTUALLY -- I WAS -- I
WAS -- THEY TOLD ME, YOU'RE
NOMINATED FOR AN OSCAR.
IT WAS SHOCKING.
BUT AT THE SAME TIME IT DID LIFT
MY SPIRITS.
>> Jimmy: OH, SO YOU FEEL LIKE
THAT, GETTING NOMINATED, MAY
HAVE PULLED YOU OUT OF A FUNK?
>> PULL MED OUT OF A FUNK.
>> Jimmy: YEAH.
>> I RECOMMEND IT.
[ LAUGHTER ]
>> Jimmy: THIS WOULD MAKE A
GREAT MEDICATION COMMERCIAL.
>> YEAH.
>> Jimmy: AS FAR AS GOING TO THE
OSCARS, THAT WAS WHAT YEAR THAT
YOU WENT TO THE OSCARS FOR THE
FIRST TIME?
>> I WENT FOR "SERPICO."
>> Jimmy: FOR "SERPICO."
>> I'D MADE IT WITH MY MANAGER
AT THE TIME, THE PRODUCER, THE
GREAT MARTY BREGMAN, WHO'S
PASSED ON.
AND HE WAS VERY CLOSE TO ME.
PROBABLY ONE OF THE MAIN REASONS
I'M HERE TODAY, REALLY.
>> Jimmy: BECAUSE OF HIM?
>> BECAUSE OF HIM, YEAH.
>> Jimmy: UH-HUH.
>> SO I THOUGHT, I SHOULD BE
THERE.
MY GREAT FRIEND AND MENTOR,
CHARLIE LAUTEN, WHO'S ALSO GONE
NOW.
HE WAS IN THE AUDIENCE, THEY
WERE IN THE AUDIENCE R. I
THOUGHT, I SHOULD GO THERE.
>> Jimmy: YEAH.
>> THE REMOTE CHANCE THAT I
WOULD GET AN OSCAR.
I HAD NO BELIEF THAT I WOULD GET
IT, TO BE HONEST WITH YOU, I
REALLY DIDN'T.
SO THAT WAS ALL RIGHT.
I WENT ANYWAY.
AND I SAT THERE.
I DIDN'T HAVE A SPEECH, WHICH
IS -- IF YOU REALLY DON'T THINK
YOU'RE GOING TO GET THE OSCAR,
YOU DON'T WRITE A SPEECH.
>> Jimmy: RIGHT.
>> I RECOMMEND YOU DO, THOUGH.
[ LAUGHTER ]
EXCEPT I DIDN'T GET IT.
BUT IT'S INTERESTING TIME.
YOU FLASH ON THE -- ON THE PAST
LIKE THAT.
ESPECIALLY AN OSCAR, SO
SUBSTANTIAL AN EVENT FOR AN
ACTOR.
>> Jimmy: YEAH.
>> SO YOU'RE THERE.
AND YOU'RE -- YOU KNOW, YOU'RE
THINKING ABOUT IT.
I'M SITTING THERE.
AND IT -- IT WASN'T AT ALL LIKE
YOU EXPECT.
LIKE TONIGHT, THIS IS NOT WHAT I
EXPECT.
THAT SCREEN THERE IS A LITTLE
SCARY.
>> Jimmy: YOU DID KNOW THESE
PEOPLE WOULD BE HERE, RIGHT?
>> YEAH, I HEARD PEOPLE, I SAID,
YES, I'M GLAD WE'RE OUT THERE
TONIGHT.
I'M GLAD.
SO I WENT, AND I -- I SAT THERE
IN THIS BIG EVENT.
AND I WAS WITH A FRIEND.
AND I HAD A FEW THINGS, YOU
KNOW.
I WAS, YOU KNOW -- I WAS NOT
COMPLETELY MYSELF.
>> Jimmy: I SEE, OKAY.
>> SO EVERYTHING IS TOLERABLE.
NERVES CALMED DOWN AND ALL.
I'M SITTING THERE ENJOYING THE
SHOW.
I TURNED TO JEFF BRIDGES.
IN THE STRANGEST WAY HE WAS JUST
SITTING THERE, BECAUSE HE WAS
ALSO NOMINATED.
>> Jimmy: UH-HUH.
>> AND I SAID, HI.
BECAUSE I DIDN'T KNOW HIM.
I KNEW HE WAS JEFF BRIDGES, BUT
I'D NEVER MET HIM.
AND I SAY, HI.
HE SAID, YES, HI.
OKAY.
[ LAUGHTER ]
HE HASN'T SEEN MY FILM.
[ LAUGHTER ]
I LOOK AT HIM.
AND I SAID, I DON'T THINK
THEY'RE GOING TO GET TO THE BEST
ACTOR CATEGORY.
HE LOOKED AT ME.
AND HE SAID, WHAT DO YOU MEAN?
I SAID, WELL, IT'S AN HOUR AND
IT'S OVER, AND THEY DIDN'T GET
TO THAT CATEGORY.
HE GAVE ME A LOOK, TO THIS DAY
I'LL NEVER FORGET IT.
[ LAUGHTER ]
LIKE, WHERE DO YOU COME FROM?
WHO ARE YOU?
AND I JUST LOOKED AT HIM.
AND HE SAID, "IT'S THREE HOURS."
THAT COLLAPSED ME.
[ LAUGHTER ]
I THOUGHT, OH, WHAT AM I GOING
TO DO FOR THE NEXT TWO HOURS?
>> Jimmy: JEFF BRIDGES, IF
YOU'RE SO HIGH THAT JEFF BRIDGES
HAS TO TELL YOU WHAT'S GOING
ON --
[ LAUGHTER ]
>> OH MY GOD, OH YES.
I DID GET HIGHER AS THE NIGHT
WENT ON, YES.
>> Jimmy: AL PACINO IS HERE.
HIS MOVIE IS "THE IRISHMAN."
>>> THIS IS AN EXAMPLE OF A
PERSONAL VENDETTA AGAINST MY
CLIENT, AGAINST HIS FAMILY, BY A
FRUSTRATED JUSTICE DEPARTMENT
AND THE ATTORNEY GENERAL ROBERT
KENNEDY.
>> GET THAT GUN OUT OF HIS HAND!
>> THAT WAS NOT A REAL GUN, WAS
IT?
>> HOW'D THAT GUN GET IN?
>> IT WASN'T MY FAULT!
>> THAT'S MY SON!
THAT'S MY KID!
I RAISED THIS KID!
SEE HIM?
SEE WHAT HE DID?
>> I DIDN'T FEEL IT, I JUST TOOK
A LITTLE IMPACT.
THEN HE BROUGHT A BB GUN.
BUT I CHARGED HIM.
I CHARGED HIM AND SO DID CHUCK
IF YOU NOTICE.
I TAUGHT HIM WELL.
YOU CHARGE A GUY, ALWAYS CHARGE
A GUY WITH A GUN.
WITH A KNIFE, YOU RUN AWAY.
RUN AWAY FROM A KNIFE.
CHARGE WITH A GUN, KNIFE, RUN
AWAY.
>> Jimmy: AL PACINO IN "THE
IRISHMAN."
I LOVE THAT MOVIE.
IT'S SO GREAT TO SEE YOU GUYS
TOGETHER AGAIN.
THAT EFFECT THEY DID, THEY MADE
YOU 40 YEARS YOUNGER.
WAS THAT UNUSUAL FOR YOU?
[ LAUGHTER ]
WAS THAT WEIRD TO LOOK AT?
>> 40 YEARS?
>> Jimmy: I THINK SO, RIGHT?
[ LAUGHTER ]
DIDN'T THEY?
>> WHAT ABOUT 20?
[ LAUGHTER ]
NO, IT WASN'T WEIRD AS MUCH AS
IT -- YOU GET USED TO IT, YOU
KNOW.
BUT -- BUT YOU'RE FILMING.
AND THEY HAVE A LITTLE -- WHAT'S
THE GUY FROM "STAR WARS"?
>> Jimmy: R2D2.
>> R2D2.
R2D2 IS ALWAYS BY THE CAMERA.
YOU GET TO KNOW HIM, SAY HI,
WHATEVER.
THEY PUT A LOT OF DOTS ON YOU.
THEN THEY SHOOT.
>> Jimmy: UH-HUH.
>> YOU HAVE THREE CAMERAS.
A COMPUTER THAT HAS THREE LENSES
ON IT.
PLUS THERE'S ANOTHER CAMERA.
AND IT'S FINE AFTER AWHILE.
YOU KNOW, IT'S FUNNY, YOU GET
INTO THE STORY AND THE DIALOGUE
AND THE RELATIONSHIP WITH THE
OTHER ACTORS.
AND IT -- YOU GET USED TO IT.
YOU GET USED TO ANYTHING,
REALLY.
>> Jimmy: IT'S SO HIGH-TECH.
THIS IS A PHOTO OF YOU AND
ROBERT DE NIRO WORKING TOGETHER.
THERE'S A HEIGHT DIFFERENCE
BETWEEN THE CHARACTERS.
THEY SPENT, I DON'T KNOW,
MILLIONS --
>> IT'S SORT OF UNFAIR, YOU
KNOW.
>> Jimmy: LIKE $80 ON HIS SHOES
TO MAKE HIM TALLER.
IT'S LIKE A HERMAN MUENSTER
BIO-PIC OR SOMETHING.
>> I LEFT MINE BACKSTAGE.
>> Jimmy: TELL ME ABOUT
"HUNTERS."
THIS IS A TELEVISION SHOW WHICH
IS A RARE OCCURRENCE FOR YOU.
[ CHEERS AND APPLAUSE ]
ON AMAZON.
>> OH, YEAH.
>> Jimmy: ABOUT NAZI HUNTERS.
>> YEAH.
DAVID WILD WROTE IT.
AND HE WAS INSPIRED BY THAT
IDEA.
AND HE WROTE THIS I THINK
MAGNIFICENT SCRIPT.
>> Jimmy: I KNOW DAVID.
I DIDN'T EVEN KNOW HE DID THAT,
WELL, HOW ABOUT THAT.
>> SWEET GUY, ISN'T HE?
>> Jimmy: VERY SWEET GUY.
>> HE'S A REAL ARTIST, AND HE
REALLY IS GOOD.
>> Jimmy: AND NOBODY HUNTS NAZIS
LIKE DAVID.
>> WELL, YEAH.
I DIDN'T KNOW THAT.
WOW.
>> Jimmy: SO THIS AFTERNOON WE
SENT GUILLERMO OUT ONTO
HOLLYWOOD BOULEVARD WITH A SIGN.
"DO YOU HAVE A QUESTION FOR AL
PACINO?"
SO MANY PEOPLE HAD QUESTIONS.
AND WE WHITTLED THAT DOWN.
AND NOW GUILLERMO IS OUTSIDE
AGAIN WITH SOME OF THE PEOPLE.
THESE ARE REAL PEOPLE THAT WERE
WANDERING BY.
WHAT IS YOUR NAME?
>> MY NAME IS CARRIE.
>> Jimmy: HI, CARRIE.
DID YOU PUT THAT SHIRT ON
ESPECIALLY FOR THIS?
>> TOTAL COINCIDENCE.
>> Jimmy: THIS IS A COINCIDENCE
THAT CARRIE IS WEARING YOU ON
HER SHIRT.
>> SERIOUSLY?
WELL, OF COURSE I CAN'T EVEN SEE
CARRIE, HOW CAN I SEE HER SHIRT?
>> Jimmy: WELL, DO YOU GET PAID
FOR THOSE, ALL THESE POSTERS,
THE "SCARFACE" THINGS?
>> I HOPE SO.
[ LAUGHTER ]
>> Jimmy: CARRIE, WHAT IS YOUR
QUESTION?
>> MY QUESTION FOR AL IS, WHO
WOULD YOU RATHER DO BUSINESS
WITH, TONY MONTANA OR MICHAEL
CORLEONE?
>> THAT'S SO INTERESTING.
I'D TAKE TONY ANY DAY.
>> Jimmy: YEAH.
OKAY.
THERE YOU GO, CARRIE, TONY IS
THE ANSWER.
ALL RIGHT?
LET'S SEE WHO ELSE WE HAVE OUT
THERE.
WHAT IS YOUR NAME?
>> MY NAME IS ROBERT.
>> Jimmy: HI, ROBERT, WHERE ARE
YOU FROM?
>> LONG ISLAND, NEW YORK.
>> Jimmy: SAY HELLO TO AL
PACINO.
>> HI, ROBERT.
>> Jimmy: WHAT WOULD YOU LIKE TO
ASK AL?
>> I'D LIKE TO ASK AL WHAT DOES
ROBERT DE NIRO SMELL LIKE?
[ LAUGHTER ]
>> Jimmy: OH.
THAT'S A GOOD QUESTION.
>> WELL, I HAD A COLD.
I DON'T KNOW.
REALLY, I CAN'T RECOLLECT THAT.
I HAVE -- I'VE NEVER -- I NEVER
SMELLED HIM.
[ LAUGHTER ]
I SHOULD HAVE THOUGHT OF THAT.
>> Jimmy: YEAH.
>> I HUG HIM A LOT, TOO.
HE ALWAYS SMELLS FRESH.
>> Jimmy: WELL, MAYBE NEXT TIME.
IF YOU SEE HIM AT THE OSCARS,
GIVE HIM A SNIFF.
>> WELL, HE SORT OF SMELLS LIKE
JIMMY.
I HUGGED HIM WHEN I CAME IN.
>> Jimmy: I ACTUALLY PRIDE
MYSELF ON SMELLING LIKE ROBERT
DE NIRO, IT'S MY THING.
WE HAVE ONE MORE QUESTION.
>> HI, MY NAME'S NGUYEN.
>> Jimmy: NGUYEN, WHERE ARE YOU
FROM?
>> I'M FROM THE BAY AREA.
>> Jimmy: DO YOU HAVE A LOSE IN
THE FAMILY?
>> RAH-RAH.
>> Jimmy: WHAT WOULD YOU LIKE TO
ASK AL.
>> WHO'S THE BEST KISSER YOU'VE
EVER KISSED FROM THE MOVIES OR
SHOWS YOU'VE STARRED IN?
>> Jimmy: THAT IS A GOOD
QUESTION, WOW.
>> IT'S A VERY DIFFICULT
QUESTION.
>> Jimmy: IS IT?
>> THAT'S A GOOD QUESTION.
>> Jimmy: YEAH.
>> I HAVEN'T KISSED MANY.
AND I -- I GUESS I'D -- I DKISSD
MICHELLE PFEIFFER.
[ APPLAUSE ]
I KISSED HER.
BUT I HAVE TO REALLY THINK ABOUT
IT.
BUT SHE'S THE ONE THAT COMES TO
MIND.
BECAUSE I DID TWO FILMS WITH
HER --
>> Jimmy: DID YOU KISS ADAM
SANDLER IN THAT MOVIE?
>> OH, I WISH, I WISH.
[ CHEERS AND APPLAUSE ]
I LOVE HIM.
HE'S TURNING OUT TO BE SUCH A
GREAT ACTOR.
>> Jimmy: HE IS A GREAT ACTOR,
YEAH.
>> THE "GEMS" MOVIE.
>> Jimmy: I THINK YOU HAD THE
BEST QUESTION, WIN, YOU WIN,
OKAY?
>> WHERE DID SHE GO?
YOU WIN.
>> THANK YOU.
>> Jimmy: ALL RIGHT.
GUILLERMO, YOU STAY OUT THERE,
I'M A LITTLE BIT UPSET WITH YOU,
OKAY?
>> Guillermo: ALL RIGHT, JIMMY,
WHATEVER YOU SAY.
>> Jimmy: HE'S GOING TO DINNER
WITHOUT ME TONIGHT, I WASN'T
EVEN INVITED.
>> HE'S OUT THERE WITH MATT
DAMON.
>> Jimmy: THAT'S RIGHT.
[ CHEERS AND APPLAUSE ]
LET THEM HAVE FUN TOGETHER.
THE GREAT AL PACINO, EVERYONE.
"THE IRISHMAN" IS ON NETFLIX AND
THEATERS, AND "HUNTERS" ON
