And hats off to Rich Eisen who knows how to ask a question and give the guest plenty of time to fully answer without having to hear his own voice. It's a rare talent.

Kevin is not only a great actor, he is also a great storyteller.

I absolutely _love_ that Connery made the effort to make sure he was right _before_ ripping into somebody he _perceived_ had wronged him. As for Lancaster, what magnificent humility it demonstrates that he kept asking, "You saw that?"

RIP Burt Lancaster (November 2, 1913 - October 20, 1994), aged 80 RIP Sir Sean Connery (August 25, 1930 - October 31, 2020), aged 90 RIP Ray Liotta (December 18, 1954 - May 26, 2022), aged 67 You will be remembered as legends.

What a little gem of an interview that was, I like Costner, he is always honest and tell it like it is. Kevin Costner is a proper movie star, we dont really have many

What a great interview. For him to share those few memories of two legendary actors was a real treat. I was smiling ear to ear.

Costner is a great story teller,I loved how he did the voices ,😝

One of the very few actors who can carry a film all by himself, he has incredible screen presence

People who have said actors are not to bright never listened to Costner. Notice the PERFECT set up at the end... "You saw that?" ... killed it.

the untouchables even to this day is one of the best written scripts i have ever heard... an absolutely fantastic film.

No Way Out is an unforgettable movie. I have watched it again and again over the years. One of the few surprise endings that I will never forget. Actually, two surprise endings. I will never forget you Kevin Costner.

Burt Lancaster told my father a story about a guy who wanted an autograph from him once. He was eating dinner in a restaurant in LA and some guy comes up to him while hes putting his fork to his mouth and grabbed his hand to stop him from putting the food in his mouth to ask for his autograph. Burt told him to basically F off and the guy left him and went back to his table. When Burt had finished his meal and he was leaving he went over to the guy and told him, "Look I appreciate that you are a fan, but you were very rude". He gave him an autograph and left. He was a classy guy.

What a gentleman Kevin! Your stories were charming and warm, about two fabulous actors. Thank you.

Kevin Costner is one of the most under rated actors and such a genuine nice guy

Burt Lancaster is my favourite actor of all time, it's good to hear him mentioned here....

Sean Connery was THE MAN! What a Human Being! There will NEVER be another actor like Sean Connery! ONE OF A KIND!

His impressions are great i can see Burt Lancaster actually telling those stories

Kostner has a great voice. I love the humbling experience of being asked to get Sean’s autograph 😂😂😂

Wow, I just watched The Train with Burt Lancaster yesterday. again. what a great film!

Good stories from Costner and especially pleasing to hear him speak of Sean and Burt with such respect.

Kevin seems to be a very grounded person. I had the pleasure of meeting him at a fraternity event back in 1990 or 1991, man I am getting old. He took the time to mingle with a bunch of "star struck" college kids, and he didn't have to but wanted to. A really nice man.

He’s a great actor but I really enjoy him in person just being himself.

I love hearing actors impersonate other actors. Great job Kevin!

Kevin Costner is one of the absolute best actors in history!

Rest in peace great Sean Connery.

A proper actor who didn’t seek the limelight

I love that Costner isn't one of those pretentious actors who doesn't like to talk about their own films. He has cool stories and likes to tell them. I've never seen him not be excited to talk about one of his movies with anybody. Cool guy...

Dude was a monster in the 1980s. The thing was, he didn't come across as being bigger than life. He was a guy you might have grown up with and remained friends with the rest of your life.

Love Costner!!! Old school movie star quality. Great stories to tell too.

I think this guy is one of the most underrated of Hollywood A listers.

This was a fantastic interview, love to hear about those guys

At least we still have this Great Actor Sharing these Memories with these 2 Older Actors who are Sadly No Longer with us now! Kevin Costner you are a Legend!

Wonderful interview ! Thanks so much for sharing with us ! You've MADE my day, my week & my weekend ! :-)

The Train with Burt Lancaster, watching him work in that movie is just magic.

Burt Lancaster is one of my new favorite actors , incredible.

Always wondered what it was like for him to work with Burt Lancaster. Thank you.

In 1990 Kevin Costner was offered the lead in a film that needed a big star to get the studio financing, but Costner turned it down because he had been working three years straight and needed a break. Costner's wife, Cindy Silva, read the script and realized its importance and told her husband, "This film has to be made." The film was JFK by Oliver Stone. Thank you, Cindy Silva.

Holysh**t what a great interview. How many of you want to see the Kentuckian now lol??

RIP Sean Connery

What a great privilege to be able to experience two of the greats!🍻🍻🍻

Costner and Hanks just tell the best stories. Could listen to them for hours.

I would love to hear him talk about working with Gene Hackman on "No Way Out". Great movie, very under rated

Dance with Wolves great movie he starred in and also directed it. Respect to Burt and Sir Connery

Burt Lancaster in “The Train” could be one of best movies ever made. To expensive to make now, Burt’s talents could not be matched. It’s a crime, it’s never seen. Unbelievable!

Great hearing Kevin talk about Burt Lancaster. "Valdez is coming" remains one of my favorite movies ever.

Costner seems a really down to earth nice man. Great stories.

New to the channel as from the uk but love his connection to his guests and the respect they have from him. 🙃

I really loved him as that lawyer guy, in breaking bad. Great actor

makes me cry that movie was amazing these guys who are no longer here make me happy in sad times......thanks

Costner is my favorite actor and one of my favorite interviewees. Because he's SO GOOD he's worked with all the greatest actors and has such wonderful behind the scenes stories. ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤

I'm here all day for Kevin Costner stories.

Kevin went to my high school. Villa Park High, Villa Park, CA. I think he was class of '74. I was '77 so he was already over at Cal State Fullerton. But my best friend who was class of '75 remembers him as just another skinny kid on campus among so many others. Yeah, he's a good, down to earth sort I think. Time mellows us all out. Go Spartans!

Wow, he’s got Burt lancaster’s flow and all that down. The way he talks I mean.

i rewatched waterworld last weekend. i love it. always have. its still a very fun and excellent movie

people forget now just how massive a star costner was at one time. very late 80s to 94 ish he was in massive films that all grossed 200 mills plus. untouchables, feild of dreams, dances with wolfs, robin hood, JFK, the body gard were his peak years. great run of films to have been in.

Kevin and Sean To of my favourite actors / Hero's ❤️

I’ve always admired Costner. Long list of fine movies. He could’ve retired on Dances with Wolves, alone. But I admire Lancaster even more! Played every type of role, never fell into that typecasting trap. And his diction was perfect! Don’t underestimate good diction; too many actors mumble, an affectation popularized by Brando and James Dean. (Interestingly, Lancaster was also a big opera buff. He wanted to make a movie with the late opera star, Beverly Sills. She said she was too old to appear on film. Lancaster said, “Don’t be ridiculous, we’ll film you through gauze. Sills replied, “You’d have to film me through linoleum before I’d ever make movie!”)

I usually hate celebrity interviews but Rich knows how to do them.

Kevin and Sean are my idols . It would be the best to meet Kevin once before I go meet Sean . God bless you

Kevin Costner...You are a great actor and producer..Yellowstone is a Great show.Thank you for making it.

Kevin Costner is not only a great filmmaker and actor but the nicest celebrity I have met a few times and he always talks to his fans and super Awesome!

Those scenes with M Lancaster were very affecting. He was a fabulous screen presence. My dad loved that film being a dog man and respecting the free spirited nature of the character. Mr Costner made great Westerns too. In fact he is very good in No way out with Gene Hackman as well.

That is some of the coolest stories I've ever heard .

Rip both Sir Sean Connery 1930-2020 and Burt Lancaster 1913-1994

that scene in The Kentuckian got me to run the 440 in track. nobody moved like Burt.

What a nice guy and a great story teller.

What a nice man. I like him so much

That train station scene in untouchables is top 10 all time

Sean, Burt, Kirk, Walter...and Kevin Costner ALL legends !

Mathew was a bad ass police chief with Douglas in Lonely the Brave. And Lancaster in the crimson Pirate is one of my favourites.

Kevin you would be my favorite actor. . . except that I LOVED Sean Connery when I was just a girl, and I still do. He will be missed. God bless you both.

Sean Connery...O.M.G. One of our GREATS....Loved him so much and like old wine got sexier with age..God Bless and R.I.P...GREATLY MISSED😇🙏😘

"You saw that?" Yes. Absolutely.

I loved that scene Kevin was describing about Walter , the whip , the wagon wheel and Burt. Kevin was wonderful in " For the Love of the Game " and his darkest role , " Mr. Brooks ".

First seen his film was in Field of Dreams, I was in high school.

Kevin Cosner does excellent voice impersonations,Like him even more now

Watching this in Lock down here in the UK. Great movie.

I remember watching the kentuckian as a kid in the 70s......ive never forgotten that scene with the whip....amazing........

I love his story about the screenplay for Dances with Wolves.

Aside of being a fantastic actor, Kevin Costner seems so genuine and sincere. JFK, Dances with Wolves, Untouchables, just to name a few, are some of my favourite movies. I highly recommend Fandango to all the young fans. Once of my favourites as well

Yea Kevin i saw that in Bull Durham where you mentioned Visalia, where i live and you lived for a minute,i went to Redwood High,you went to Whitney High.

I like Kevin and his conversation shows a lot about how he is like the two stars he's talking about. A down to earth guy. That's why I liked Lancaster and Douglas, too. I have Kirk's life story. I've met people from New York who knew him as a kid selling rags with his dad down NY city streets. He came up from the bottom. What a guy, what a talent. Go see Dick Cavett's interview. You'll be impressed.

Mr Costner has worked with the greatest and is one of the greatest. He and Rob Duval were amazing. I believe there's yet to be another epic movie, filmed the traditional way (no cgi) from Mr Costner.

Fascinating interview. If anyone hasn't seen "Mr.Brooks" I highly recommend it.

Awesome! Love it!

Rip Sir Sean Connery The Untouchables was one of my favorite non James Bond films besides The Hunt For Red October and The Rock and evening Indiana Jones and The Last Crusade

Surprise ! This the first interview I see with non acting Costner and now I see what hell of an actor he is, scary !

Another all time great actor and producer

Kevin was lucky to work with 2 GREATS : SEAN CONNERY in THE UNTOUCHABLES AND BURT LANCASTER in FIELD OF DREAMS. 😉😃😁😎 BUT I REALLY ENJOYED HIM in DANCES WITH WOLFS, the Indian actors were VERY GOOD. I ESPECIALLY LOVED the ending when the one Indian actor YELLS OUT "YOU WILL ALWAYS BE MY FRIEND ". That was HEARTBREAKING FOR ME.😉😃😁😎

Was this actually done on 6/13/18? Kevin Costner looks fantastic. He's 63 and he looks 50.

My dad helped build a couple of the sets in The Kentuckian. A lot of it was filmed in Owensboro and the surrounding area.

To see LANCASTER in ELMER GANTRY..is simply mesmerizing...just BRILLIANT...and soooo deserved the ACADEMY AWARD......l can still see him...running down the platform in the revival tent!!..so exciting

What great stories!

my goodness, The Kentuckian with Eli and Stan! Great stories from Kevin!!!! :)

Burt Lancaster was one of my favorite actors he was very unique and also very handsome when he was a bit younger !

Long ago I was browsing in the video store looking for something to rent. I saw No Way Out and rented it because it had Gene Hackman in it (of whom I was a big fan) and because it was about a guy in the Navy and my husband had just retired from the Navy. I had never heard of Costner. By the end of the film I had become a huge Costner fan and remain so. That was a great movie, thrilling, well paced with a great twist at the ending. Plus, he's really good looking with a great laugh. Bull Durham was another one of my favorite Costner movies, so funny.

Superb Interview

Lancaster and Douglas in Tough Guys (1986). What a fun movie. Seven Days in May was outstanding.

I saw that scene where Matthau was beating Lancaster with a whip. It was brutal.

I'd like to hear what he has to say about working with James Earl Jones....That "people will come, Ray " scene was in my opinion the most powerful scene in the film.,
