Summary
James Lipton hosts an evening of discussion with actor Harvey Keitel. Keitel discusses his upbringing in the Brighton Beach section of Brooklyn; his decision at age 16 to join the United States Marine Corps; supporting himself as a court reporter before beginning his acting career; his drama studies under Frank Corsaro, Stella Adler and Lee Strasberg; his stage debut in Sam Shepard's play Up to Thursday, which was presented as part of Theatre 1965 New Playwrights Series. Keitel examines his working relationship with motion picture director Martin Scorcese, beginning with the director's first feature film Who's that knocking at my door? (1967), and continuing with Mean streets (1973), Alice doesn't live here anymore (1974), Taxi driver (1976), and The last temptation of Christ (1988). He also discusses his roles in such motion pictures as The two Jakes (1990), Bad lieutenant (1992), Reservoir dogs (1992), The piano (1995), and Clockers (1995). Keitel speaks about his role choices, including his preference for working on independent films by up-and-coming directors. A brief question and answer session with Keitel and the Actors Studio master's degree students concludes the program.
