The Dick Cavett Show: Robert Mitchum (1971)
Robert Mitchum never gave too many interviews and one of his last ended up going down in history as a rather ugly and embarrassing moment. If you've seen his interview with Turner Classic Movies then you'll know what I mean. This interview here is actually a very warm and entertaining one as Mitchum admits that he's rather uncomfortable with such things and even jokes about having to drink to prepare for it.
As far as the interview goes, Cavett handles Mitchum quite well as they discuss his early days, his jail time, various trouble he's been in and yes they also discuss some of his movies. He talks about some of his co-stars that he has worked with and shares his opinion on Hollywood ranging from parties to the stress and various other subjects. If you're a fan of Mitchum then you'll certainly enjoy this interview, which clocks in at just over a hour.
