Mark Hamill story about Sir Alec Guinness pranking an extra on Star Wars A New Hope.

As Mark gets older, his joker voice starts to take over.

"He once gave Mark $20 to go away" Carrie Fisher on Sir Alec

"You can close your eyes and walk for a mile in any direction and not fall down." is a really underrated phrase.

The reason Mark Hamill was so good as Luke Skywalker, I think, is because in real life he is a positive, animated, fun person. Luke is like that, he's positive, adventurous, and loving.

I could listen to Mark telling me Star Wars stories for the rest of my days

[JJ-mtos]

Doesn't matter if it's 1979 or 2017, Mark Hamill is just the best storyteller

Interesting note: The little person Mark is referring to here is the great Jack Purvis, whom was also in a musical comedy duo called the Mini-Tones with fellow Star Wars co-star Kenny Baker. Unfortunately Jack suffered an accident in 1991 where his cars brakes failed when he was working on it and it rendered him quadriplegic. He was a staple actor in many of Terry Gilliam's films of the 1980's.

3:22 'You're going to do a sequel too, I understand?"
'Yeah"
Most underrated foreshadowing in all of history.

[NKWTI]

Mark Hamill has always been a quality yapper.

[Fenrir_Formally_Rye]

His impression of Sir Alec Guinness, when talking about where Jack is, was spot on!

[RandomlyFocused]

I think one of my favorite things about watching Mark's old interviews is that it's wonderful to see how he has not changed fundamentally as such a wonderful and charming human being.

Listening to Mark tell the story, and doing Sir Alec Guinness voice, we see how much he was underrated as a talented actor and a great person. His voice work is top-notch... and he's still married to his wife after 40+ years. No cheating, not a drug addict, no red flag. A swell guy... Luke Skywalker in real life.

[Yuthrayard]

Mark Hamill has always been charming and fun.

[ttttr]

"you're gonna do a sequal I understand?"... "yeh.."

[hopperthemarxist]

A masterclass in story telling. He’s so intelligent, vibrant, charming, and animated and he makes sure to involve everyone around him in the story

[chickendrawsdogs]

Sometimes I wish George Lucas had let Mark Hamill's charisma embody Luke more, because DAMN, this man can tell stories all day every day and I'll be there for it.

[lukedeardoff]

Did you count all the times Johnny Carson interrupted him during his story?? that's right, 0, literally a great example on why he will always be the king of late night. Not saying late night show hosts are bad these days, but Johnny literally just sat back and let Mark just tell his hilarious story

[marekvyrostko]

When he says "Which small person is he?" He sounds like Obi-Wan... But the McGregor one.

[CherryRedBanshee]

Mark was so adorable when he was young but he also had that old soul, dad telling his kids a story energy even as a young man.

[q.h.s]

Not only do I absolutely love Mark and love to hear him but obviously so did Johnny! He’s quiet an listens! He didn’t interrupt Mark at all! I miss Late Night Tv hosts like this.
