  • An interview with the insightful stage and film veteran Victor Spinetti

    Sep. 18, 1975

    This lighthearted interview with actor, director and author Victor Spinetti is juxtaposed by the September 5, 1975 bombing of the London Hilton, which took place mere hours beforehand and "two blocks away," according to Studs. The two discuss Spinetti's Welsh background, acting and comedy with nervous energy against a backdrop of gunshots and bomb threats.
