    Tarantino once called DeNiro the greatest movie maker of all time, on the basis his collaborations and output was unsurpassed by any director or actor, and I think that’s right. Godfather 2, Raging Bull, Goodfellas, Deerhunter, Casino, Jacknife, Ronin, Mean Streets, 1900, Once Upon a Time in America, The Irishman, Taxi Driver, King of Comedy, The Mission- bloody hell it goes on and on. A true legend.

    How amazing of him to fly from NY for and interact with the younger generation giving such amazing advice and answers to his questions. It's obvious he is a shy guy and is so humble. For me, Heat is one of my favourites films of all time. A true legend, how lucky for those there to be in his presence.
  • @Gemini3K
    Robert De Niro for me is the greatest screen actor of all time. His versatility is unmatched and how he can get in and out of character is something to behold. He's a genius at his craft. He really is.
  • @sifiska
    Another underrated classic in "Midnight Run". Best "buddy movie" of all time.
  • @lukedaley17
    What a privilege for these students to meet one of the biggest names of Hollywood.
  • @canyildiz5966
    i love how we all expect these larger-than-life answers, but he just sort of shrugs unassumingly, explaining his ideas with little eloquence. I think Robert DeNiro teaches us to stop overthinking things, really.
  • @woofdog1525
    It doesn’t matter that his movies over the last 10 years have been questionable.His work from the 70’s-90’s is unsurpassable.He has been in many of the greatest films ever made.Those roles will be watched for generations forever inspiring young actors.Respect 🤟🏼
  • @Entertainer114
    The "Hark I hear the cannon roar" joke was a gem moment. Love how pleased he looked with himself after that haha. Smacking his lips.
  • I like Bob because he's modest, honest and straight to the point. He's also someone who isn't a big fan of the whole celebrity culture and generally prefers to stay out of the limelight.
  • Robert de Niro does it differently He has no frills he is completely genuine and sincere basic about that which is at hand the people the material Yes, he expresses himself down to earth in a gritty manner which encaptulates energises and just blows the audience away… and the imagination does the rest How does one describe brilliance when it comes so naturally⁉️ 💫🥂 🪖
  • Will all respect! Robert DeNiro is the greatest Man of the Time. Is quite example and model for us . I guess people need to learn , from such people like Him . Being today a Fella like Robert, isn’t easy.
  • @assamiyou
    I love Robert, a true and authentic human being, let alone one of the greatest actors in history.
  • @petrov3190
    Absolute icon, but so humble and down to earth person. The greatness didn't get to the heads of Robert De Niro and Al Pacino, great human beings and amazing artists, incredible of their craft. We should not just enjoy their movies, but also listen their advices and life stories. Also looks like De Niro is enjoying himself and feels comfortable during interviews and talk shows in UK.
  • His message is really very simple. BE YOU BE UNIQUE STAY TRUE TO WHO AND WHAT YOU ARE.
  • This is such as privilege for all this young people to be able to learn from one of the best and respected actor like Mr Robert De Niro !!
  • @stardust5397
    I only recently came across Cambridge Union on YouTube but really impressed with the content , interesting & informative with such impressive guests who have a real life story to tell. What a privilege for the students to question & listen first hand to such guests
  • @CineRanter
    Looking forward to seeing him in Killers of the Flower Moon
  • @ZaydDepaor
    That hark I hear the cannons roar joke was great and the way he told it...that was brilliant, that was De Niro in character right there.
