Today in Motion Picture history, an informal interview as young Willis Mumford
A beginning actor, speaks with the great and legendary Jimmy Stewart
Let's listen
You know, I've talked to some stand-ins and a lot of grips and set decorators
But I've never talked to a real, you know, superstar
And Mr. Stewart, I know this is a corny question
Oh, my God, I asked myself in the kitchen this morning when I got up
What am I gonna to say if I see a superstar?
And I'm going to say it right now
What does it take to be a superstar like yourself?
Well, you can be a movie star or you can be an actor
And, uh sometimes, if you're lucky, you're both
Which do you wanna to be?
Do you wannna be a movie star or you wanna be an actor?
This is going to sound silly, but I want to be both
Well, I like to think that I am, okay, you know
Well, what have you done?
Have you had any training at all?
Well, I had a wonderful experience this past summer, my third year in school
And I worked at the Chevron station where I corrected the doors on the eh, on the toilets
Well, this is a star, you know, what else?
Well, eh, other things that I've done, I've done, I've done a lot of cars
Um, you know, when the hubcaps came off, I replaced them with other hubcaps
I, I've done things where I know pretty much the engines in most of the foreign cars
And I've been able, I'm, I'm, I'm basically a young mechanic
But I want to get away from grease and grime
And rude bastards that "pick up that other, that's not that hubcap I want"
I want to be a movie star so that I can live in a big, big house, 20, 30 million dollars
And I can have a good wife, you know, a woman that's, you know, kind of, well
I don't know, not all there
Who cares? But has a big breast, a chest
And a 12 waist and, and talks funny and does numbers on me
But I thought you wanted to be an actor
What has working at the gas station got to do with it?
Well, Mr. Stewart, would you have said that to Joe DiMancho?
I'm honored, did he work at the gas station?
Toward the end he did
I thought, I thought he made coffee
Well
Oh, that's cruel
Uh, he was a great baseball champion
Come on, you know
Mr. Stewart, uh, what?, why?,I know this is a touchy question
But I'm going to ask it anyway
'Cause I have to go back to my home pretty soon
Um, where?, Why did you wait so long to be married?
Well, I just, just didn't meet the right person
Well, you can pay for him
No, no, I just felt that if I didn't meet the right person
I did't, It was just good to be a bachelor
Are you satisfied with um, married life?
Is it exciting as you thought it would be?
Ah no, no it kind of uh, it kind of hinders me
You know, the girl next door, she's retarded
And she doesn't know who I am, can't identify me
That's why we have a lot of fun in the tent
Uh huh
Wha, what's her name?
Who cares?
She has it on her T-shirt, me
