In 1977 a little known actor by the name of Harrison Ford got his big break when Star Wars was unleashed on the world.  Here a remarkably fresh faced Ford is interviewed by Bobbie Wygant, the legendary NBC 5 reporter who is still going strong today.  Wygant questions Ford about the film and his role within it – neither particularly hiding the fact that they don’t really get it – that much – at all.  He does, however, wax lyrical (or as lyrical as he gets) about the opening shot.  And who wouldn’t?

Ford is famous not only for his acting but his dislike of the publicity machine which surrounds movies and in particular the interview treadmill.  What makes this particularly special is that the interview was conducted just after the premier when Harrison Ford could still walk the streets without being recongnized by one and all.

Interview d’Harrison Ford  non sous-titrée, mais pour ceux qui parlent la langue de la perfide Albion, vous serez heureux de découvrir un acteur en devenir, un ex-charpentier, qui peut se promener dans la rue sans être dérangé, qui se doute que certaines portes viennent de s’ouvrir devant lui, en ignorant qu’il sera Indiana Jones ou Rick Deckard dans Blade Runner.
