Ben Johnson on The Wild Bunch & Sam Peckinpah (1990's)

Two brief interview clips from American actor Ben Johnson (1918-1996) talking about The Wild Bunch (in particular the wine vat scene with Warren Oates) in 1992, and director Sam Peckinpah in 1994.

In his later years Ben Johnson lived in my area in Arizona, I bumped into him in Home Depot when I was shopping for a barbecue and we had lively conversation on the proper way to grill a steak. A genuinely nice man to have a normal conversation with .

Knowing who they are, and appreciating what guys like Ben Johnson and Warren Oates did in those movies, makes it seem like a secret club nowadays.
