today. president ford the legendary actor on his new jackie robinson picture how do you think it turned out i think it turned out to be for he is moving on with life and will be returned to star wars in indiana jones and j.j. abrams doing star wars that is is a would be logic goes you work together that he would run to you there's no logic in show this slip. plus i'm still waiting for the larry king story you did for me. that's all the next on larry king now. there is an incredible film now playing wide as they say its title is forty two
11:01 pm
steve incredible story of jackie robinson and i have that stole the virtues of this movie to everyone i meet i've given quotes terry what i talk to are done radio interviews about this movie i feel i'm a part of this movie since i knew jackie robinson i was at his first game the take it back a little bit we met in an airport and was vegas harrison ford and he said i just finished a movie called forty two a play branch rickey this is kid and it playing jackie robson i think is a pretty good movie how do you think it turned out. i think it turned out to be a pretty good movie and i wouldn't lie to you did you realize that this was. what it was a star it. yeah you know i knew that it that there was an aspect to this to this story that was beyond the typical and that it was something very important about america about our culture. and about bringing
11:02 pm
a story that. you were to a new generation that perhaps didn't know the dealing with the details of it but hadn't had the visceral experience. that that this film is you know the thing i always guard against when i'm. talking about people i'm working with about a script is that. it is there's a thing i don't like and it's called talk stories when you're talking about the story the characters are tasked with talking about the story instead of allowing the audience to experience the story and that's what i think is really great about this movie is that young people. who weren't there well have a chance to have a the visceral experience of what jackie robinson went through. and you
11:03 pm
know long career i think i've seen all year for an eventual play that has startled figure you know not knowing that anyone would be frail year with how did you familiarize yourself with branch rickey i. you know i don't know you do you know brazilians really great book on branch rickey absolutely and and branch rickey himself wrote quite a lot of there's. there's some filming. in scope from not a lot television not a lot in the the one thing the one thing that was probably most telling of all was his appearance on what's my line which was you know in. he was on what's my line and he was that and that was very useful to me because it had him both it had him in a social situation every other. bit of film that i had. was him making
11:04 pm
a speech is it hard hours and to not to capture someone who was a living person and not not play him as a character it's hard to be in that you know in our yeah you know is that what you mean but but. what i found was an emotional consistency with the words the scenes the situations. i was in mimicking what i thought branch rickey's emotional reality would have been because i was although i shaved my hairline back and dyed my hair and wore a little powder a little paint a fat suit and i and i changed my my voice but the emotions were consistent with with what. what the point of the scene was you know i got this role. well i did leave fifty
11:05 pm
thousand dollars in around marked park bench in beverly hills but that may not if. i look i i you know i got it applied for. it's not something i. have done a lot of but. i came across a script. and i read a lot. are really want to do this and when i had my agent call they said. you know this is not what they're looking for so. ok and i let it go for a while and then it just kept on at me so i kept pushing you have only one cabbie or nomination in this lonely distinguished career as a witness right yeah you're going to get another i predict for this one unless
11:06 pm
something strange goes along you know they shot at winning it didn't incredible job in a movie whose flavor i know they call it the flavor of the tongue the fun of the movie what about this kid playing robinson he's a remarkable actor and he's a remarkable person that you know he was not a baseball player he spent. i don't know countless hours many months working two sessions a day with with professional pro coaches to develop the baseball skills. he needed but aside from that part of it is. his work as an actor i think is. truly remarkable. i had a great time working with him. he told me about him in the men's room in las vegas
11:07 pm
and the movie is forty two we'll be back with harrison ford after this. welcome to teal one i hear you can feel it home. there are three choices in life i first used to work in a mccullough dora live on a miserable way like a slave. the second is to jump the wall and catch the american dream. most of the cars and lose their lot of. choice just to become a member of an organization and get inside the drug trade. to
11:08 pm
buy something cool never forget. a. local celebrity who did it but i paid for what i've done i would never stop a. people are like there's. going to do anything to get you to react. echo a curse with a curse and dull here only yours follow a blow with a blow and they'll say the negro lost his temper your enemy you will be out in force and you cannot meet him on it's own little brown we women with heavy rocking
11:09 pm
feel only that we win if the world is convinced of two things that you are a fine gentleman and a great baseball player we are a dodger stadium is star dodgers stadium fifty years old dodger stadium and a revamped just a bit of the new work saluting the movie forty two which i. normally don't extolled thing is broadcast but this is a great movie it's a great film great stars and harrison ford is brilliant our everybody wants to know star wars coming back. is it. i know star wars come back i don't know going to be involved yet why would you not do not be involved there are circumstances you know my. and. my ability to imagine. i just i can only say that i'm not sure yet. if you like this script and
11:10 pm
if they came to you would you be interested. yes yes why i did that works. it worked because it was based. on. a bit of a. story but there's basically a fairy tale it's the you know it's the it's the it's the primordial characters it's the. princess and the and the callow youth and then the smart ass that i play that the wise old warrior the alec guinness play and it was a fairy tale it was a fairy tale do you think it would become when it became well. when we were making it the none of the effects were. so the i want the first time i thought it was you know. they were surrounded by english crew members that were could hardly keep
11:11 pm
their selves ok. here comes the guys in the in the dogs. it was like they made fun of us which was ok but the first time i was sitting in a theater and i saw forty. of your facts and then the big ship flew over the audience and the sound rumbled. i pretty much we were we're close to home j.j. abrams. who do it to you in regarding henry which of those two of you wrote it michael nichols director but as it was yeah it was j.j. is first script he was about twenty two years old and he's doing star wars so what i mean logic goes you work together then he would run to you. there's no logic in show business or you know. no that is the we we've spoken
11:12 pm
i think you've got to be at it if you're a bigger would be a mistake not to have you with it. is there's a report spielberg is considering a fifth indiana jones is that true. you put me back in the same box. i can't i can't say this. i did that work it was everything movies are some are you know are supposed to be it was it was a who was it was great filmmaking was a hoot to do oh yeah yeah to be in wild places and while ben's and crazy animals and whips yeah i you know i enjoyed that it was a very physical movie which i. enjoy and i am and stephen and i had a great time working together so it was altogether a pleasure i'm a blade runner. and i can see to that i mean are you going to be
11:13 pm
errors in sequel ford yeah yeah i'm still waiting for the larry king story to come into for me. is there a chance of that to really start said he's going to do it yeah yeah i. you know we're we're we're talking about. do you have what you have a couple of these come and yeah i had i did three last year i did this and i did a movie called paranoia. which is a thriller and i did a movie called ender's game which is based on a book women on the book by. oren scott card. which is a. movie set in the future you never stop working. i try not to i mean i don't i don't work as much as i used to but i still love the
11:14 pm
work and. i want to work give a general your gratitude well i've turned out a lot of roles that went on to be successful but i don't think over regret or that the only reason i would turn down a role. was either i felt it wasn't. the movie was going to be good or i didn't think i'd get along with the people involved or. i didn't. i didn't feel the fear i didn't feel it i didn't feel emotional was so you never have to say dad but. oh no no i haven't really the movie is forty two the movie is out of sight it's a great it's not a great just a great baseball movie it's a great movie it's a civil rights movie every child should see this from the right that.
11:15 pm
let me let me i want to know it all let me ask you a question. here on this network is what we're having a debate we have our knives out. to do is this guy just a bad thing never get here and it will be an idea we talk about the name and we. branch it's her own or or curative rationale or no we known each other. twenty years maybe more. now i'm afraid that we're not be able to take the field against your team of the boys in uniform. why is it herb. name is jackie robinson
11:16 pm
by the way yeah branch i understand he's got a name but we're just not ready for that sort of thing here in philadelphia or what you do with your team is it is your decision herb but my team's going to be in philadelphia tomorrow with problems and if we have to claim the game as a forfeit so be it that's nine to zero ok sure got you know a branch you've had a hell of a hair across your ass over this for a long time and i'd like to know what it is you think you're trying to prove you think god like space poker about. what tells us both to man it means someday you're going to meet god and when he inquired says why you didn't take the field against robinson in philadelphia and you answer that it's because he was a negro it may not be sufficient reply labatt with harrison ford the film is forty two you were in the white house. last night night before last year and they like
11:17 pm

11:25 pm
states' national security issues. and economic issues so. you know that which means that. if there is a failure of. nature to be able to graded nature to be able to sustain a population. they move when they move there's the opportunity for political radicalization and also the pressure on the place that they move and it and it. it unbalances weak governments may send and then we end up going in there and spending more money than we could have put in to prevent it from happening in the first place he does the amazing things even rescue missions and while we need pilots is on how it's up the flies his own plane hours and for this is a credible person we have some social media questions for you d.j.
