3
00:00:03,041 --> 00:00:04,666
there's something else I wanna say about insecurity,

4
00:00:04,708 --> 00:00:05,708
what is it?

00:00:08,000 --> 00:00:13,000
Official YIFY movies site:

6
00:00:08,166 --> 00:00:09,333
You know, I think the biggest thing for me

7
00:00:09,375 --> 00:00:10,583
about insecurity

8
00:00:10,625 --> 00:00:14,249
is, I've always been very insecure,

9
00:00:14,291 --> 00:00:15,124
and had these…

10
00:00:15,166 --> 00:00:18,041
these problems go on in my insides,

11
00:00:18,083 --> 00:00:20,791
and this tension, and this not liking myself stuff,

12
00:00:20,833 --> 00:00:23,833
yet still gone ahead,

13
00:00:23,875 --> 00:00:26,124
and taken a chance on making a mistake.

14
00:00:26,166 --> 00:00:28,416
Most times, people stop themselves

15
00:00:28,458 --> 00:00:30,041
from going for something in their life,

16
00:00:30,083 --> 00:00:32,749
because they'll be in the limelight,

17
00:00:32,791 --> 00:00:34,291
and what if they blow it?

18
00:00:34,333 --> 00:00:37,666
Everybody's gonna laugh, or… or…

19
00:00:37,708 --> 00:00:39,666
or ridicule them, or whatever.

20
00:00:39,708 --> 00:00:40,833
Who cares?

21
00:00:40,875 --> 00:00:42,749
I mean, you're only on this planet for so long,

22
00:00:42,791 --> 00:00:43,958
you could be dead tomorrow,

23
00:00:44,000 --> 00:00:46,125
go for it now, you know?

24
00:00:53,541 --> 00:00:55,083
There are certain people

25
00:00:55,125 --> 00:00:56,916
that fill up a television screen.

26
00:00:56,958 --> 00:01:00,666
Patrick filled up a movie screen.

27
00:01:00,708 --> 00:01:03,833
I mean, there's never been anybody quite like… Buddy.

28
00:01:03,875 --> 00:01:05,749
By the way, I was never able to call him that.

29
00:01:05,791 --> 00:01:08,333
He was always Patrick to me.

30
00:01:08,375 --> 00:01:10,083
I may be the only person in the world…

31
00:01:10,125 --> 00:01:11,166
Hey, "Call me Buddy,"

32
00:01:11,208 --> 00:01:13,499
and I just couldn't… I just couldn't do it.

33
00:01:13,541 --> 00:01:16,124
He was passionate and intense

34
00:01:16,166 --> 00:01:17,749
about everything.

35
00:01:17,791 --> 00:01:19,124
Everything.

36
00:01:19,166 --> 00:01:21,249
He was this macho guy,

37
00:01:21,291 --> 00:01:25,874
but he truly had the soul of a poet.

38
00:01:25,916 --> 00:01:27,874
I think he had a beautiful balance

39
00:01:27,916 --> 00:01:29,791
between strength

40
00:01:29,833 --> 00:01:31,666
and softness.

41
00:01:33,500 --> 00:01:34,791
His vulnerability,

42
00:01:34,833 --> 00:01:38,124
and then his kind of pure strength.

43
00:01:38,166 --> 00:01:39,958
He wasn't a "tough guy,"

44
00:01:40,000 --> 00:01:41,458
even though he was a very tough guy.

45
00:01:41,500 --> 00:01:45,208
You know, he was just this open book,

46
00:01:45,250 --> 00:01:47,791
and that's, again, the best actors

47
00:01:47,833 --> 00:01:49,999
are like, "Here's my heart, you want some?"

48
00:01:50,041 --> 00:01:52,999
Patrick was super hungry for connection.

49
00:01:53,041 --> 00:01:55,250
His heart and my heart got along really well.

50
00:01:57,083 --> 00:01:58,958
He spoke to people.

51
00:01:59,000 --> 00:01:59,791
He was that kind of guy.

52
00:01:59,833 --> 00:02:01,083
He spoke to people.

53
00:02:01,125 --> 00:02:03,166
He resonated with an audience.

54
00:02:03,208 --> 00:02:04,749
He was a movie star.

55
00:02:04,791 --> 00:02:06,666
He had the qualities.

56
00:02:06,708 --> 00:02:07,791
He had 'em all.

57
00:02:07,833 --> 00:02:09,124
My mother didn't believe

58
00:02:09,166 --> 00:02:10,458
you could truly call yourself an artist

59
00:02:10,500 --> 00:02:12,708
unless you were well-rounded
in every level of the arts,

60
00:02:12,750 --> 00:02:15,166
and my father wanted me to be a cowboy and an athlete,

61
00:02:15,208 --> 00:02:16,416
so I decided to be all of them.

62
00:02:16,458 --> 00:02:18,833
He was the type of guy that, you know,

63
00:02:18,875 --> 00:02:20,749
wanted to make a dance movie,

64
00:02:20,791 --> 00:02:21,833
made the best dance movie.

65
00:02:21,875 --> 00:02:23,124
You know?

66
00:02:23,166 --> 00:02:25,208
Wanted to write his own song,

67
00:02:25,250 --> 00:02:26,791
the song goes number one.

68
00:02:26,833 --> 00:02:28,958
He would tell you almost immediately

69
00:02:29,000 --> 00:02:30,666
all of the things that he's done.

70
00:02:30,708 --> 00:02:33,291
"You were a gymnast,

71
00:02:33,333 --> 00:02:36,666
and a world-class cowboy, roping guy,

72
00:02:36,708 --> 00:02:39,708
and a ballet dancer?"

73
00:02:39,750 --> 00:02:41,499
and… he was.

74
00:02:41,541 --> 00:02:44,208
He had a level of expertise

75
00:02:44,250 --> 00:02:46,499
in a lot of different areas.

76
00:02:46,541 --> 00:02:48,249
I think always,

77
00:02:48,291 --> 00:02:50,708
no matter how much fame you get as an actor,

78
00:02:50,750 --> 00:02:52,458
you still wonder if you're good…

79
00:02:52,500 --> 00:02:53,291
if you're good enough.

80
00:02:54,875 --> 00:02:56,291
Acting is the first thing I've ever found

81
00:02:56,333 --> 00:02:57,416
where you can never be the best,

82
00:02:57,458 --> 00:03:00,041
you can never reach the end of that challenge.

83
00:03:00,083 --> 00:03:02,916
I think that's real important.

84
00:03:12,375 --> 00:03:13,499
Where we lived in north Houston

85
00:03:13,541 --> 00:03:14,833
when I was growing up

86
00:03:14,875 --> 00:03:16,583
was the city limits.

87
00:03:16,625 --> 00:03:18,249
Within a few hundred yards behind our house,

88
00:03:18,291 --> 00:03:19,333
we were deep into the woods.

89
00:03:19,375 --> 00:03:21,249
Even though there was six years between us,

90
00:03:21,291 --> 00:03:22,874
I was still, like, just the kid brother.

91
00:03:22,916 --> 00:03:24,624
We were Wally and Beaver.

92
00:03:24,666 --> 00:03:27,666
Sounds corny, but I swear to you,

93
00:03:27,708 --> 00:03:29,916
I grew up with a superhero in my family.

94
00:03:32,375 --> 00:03:34,208
I mean, he was a star, and he knew it.

95
00:03:34,250 --> 00:03:35,708
You couldn't deny him

96
00:03:35,750 --> 00:03:37,625
his natural charisma that he had.

97
00:03:38,958 --> 00:03:41,499
We had always had dance in our lives.

98
00:03:41,541 --> 00:03:43,458
Just kind of something you take for granted.

99
00:03:43,500 --> 00:03:45,583
I mean, our mother was quite the diva,

100
00:03:45,625 --> 00:03:48,166
and quite a well-respected teacher in Houston.

101
00:03:48,208 --> 00:03:50,541
Founder of the Houston Jazz Ballet Company.

102
00:03:50,583 --> 00:03:52,666
Everywhere we went, there was, "Oh, you're a Swayze?

103
00:03:52,708 --> 00:03:53,708
Like, the dancer Swayze?"

104
00:03:55,000 --> 00:03:56,874
Ballet boy in Texas?

105
00:03:56,916 --> 00:03:58,124
Are you kidding me?

106
00:03:58,166 --> 00:04:00,541
If you stand out, that's, like, a really bad thing.

107
00:04:00,583 --> 00:04:01,708
Although, I have to say,

108
00:04:01,750 --> 00:04:04,166
I think Patrick figured out pretty early in life

109
00:04:04,208 --> 00:04:05,499
that, "You know what?

110
00:04:05,541 --> 00:04:07,958
If I fit in, I'm not gonna stand out."

111
00:04:08,000 --> 00:04:11,208
Started on a whole process of learning

112
00:04:11,250 --> 00:04:14,124
what "walking around with a
chip on your shoulder" means.

113
00:04:14,166 --> 00:04:15,583
"I'm a ballet dancer, what of it?"

114
00:04:15,625 --> 00:04:18,124
My brother had his violin in one hand,

115
00:04:18,166 --> 00:04:20,208
and he had his books in another,

116
00:04:20,250 --> 00:04:21,833
and these boys confronted him,

117
00:04:21,875 --> 00:04:24,166
and I guess he finally got fed up with it,

118
00:04:24,208 --> 00:04:26,499
and apparently, he took these kids out,

119
00:04:26,541 --> 00:04:28,333
and never set down his violin or his books.

120
00:04:28,375 --> 00:04:31,041
He did a little sweep with his legs,

121
00:04:31,083 --> 00:04:33,416
and took both of them out.

122
00:04:33,458 --> 00:04:35,124
Now, thank God, by the time I got to school,

123
00:04:35,166 --> 00:04:37,291
he'd kinda laid the groundwork.

124
00:04:37,333 --> 00:04:39,791
I had people mumble and say, "No, I wouldn't mess with him,

125
00:04:39,833 --> 00:04:41,583
the Swayzes'll kick your ass," and I'm, like, "Oh?"

126
00:04:41,625 --> 00:04:43,416
You know, even though he came from

127
00:04:43,458 --> 00:04:45,041
an arts-driven family,

128
00:04:45,083 --> 00:04:46,166
really his mom,

129
00:04:46,208 --> 00:04:47,458
they were tough people.

130
00:04:47,500 --> 00:04:50,624
His dad told him, he says, "If you ever start a fight,

131
00:04:50,666 --> 00:04:51,791
I'll kick your ass,

132
00:04:51,833 --> 00:04:54,749
and if you never finish one, I'll kick your ass."

133
00:04:54,791 --> 00:04:57,249
My dad… Jesse Wayne Swayze…

134
00:04:57,291 --> 00:04:58,208
Big Buddy.

135
00:04:58,250 --> 00:05:00,041
There was Big Buddy and Little Buddy.

136
00:05:00,083 --> 00:05:02,041
My brother was called Little Buddy.

137
00:05:02,083 --> 00:05:03,583
Big Buddy and Little Buddy.

138
00:05:03,625 --> 00:05:05,958
It was Jesse, but his name was Buddy,

139
00:05:06,000 --> 00:05:07,499
and it was kind of a Texas thing.

140
00:05:07,541 --> 00:05:10,083
He was a sort of an easy-going cowboy.

141
00:05:10,125 --> 00:05:12,624
Very funny, very sweet.

142
00:05:12,666 --> 00:05:14,458
He'd had that cowboy thing

143
00:05:14,500 --> 00:05:16,916
where you walk quiet and carry a big stick.

144
00:05:16,958 --> 00:05:18,499
He didn't have to try hard.

145
00:05:18,541 --> 00:05:21,833
He just had this easy sensuality about him,

146
00:05:21,875 --> 00:05:23,791
this easy masculinity

147
00:05:23,833 --> 00:05:26,375
that actually Patrick had also.

148
00:05:28,541 --> 00:05:29,708
Patrick loved his mother.

149
00:05:29,750 --> 00:05:30,874
She drove him a little crazy,

150
00:05:30,916 --> 00:05:33,041
but she was the task master

151
00:05:33,083 --> 00:05:35,166
that gave him his drive,

152
00:05:35,208 --> 00:05:36,708
that gave him his work ethic.

153
00:05:37,666 --> 00:05:40,833
Patsy was a force to be reckoned with.

154
00:05:40,875 --> 00:05:42,666
She was a force of nature.

155
00:05:42,708 --> 00:05:43,708
I took dance lessons when I was little,

156
00:05:43,750 --> 00:05:45,583
and I would've been really afraid of her.

157
00:05:45,625 --> 00:05:47,249
I think as a kid I always felt

158
00:05:47,291 --> 00:05:49,458
that you were harder on me than everybody else.

159
00:05:49,500 --> 00:05:51,041
I think you always do, you know…

160
00:05:51,083 --> 00:05:53,041
and I always did feel like

161
00:05:53,083 --> 00:05:54,166
I was competing for your love

162
00:05:54,208 --> 00:05:54,999
with your students.

163
00:05:55,041 --> 00:05:56,124
Well, I know…

164
00:05:56,166 --> 00:05:58,416
but the thing is,

165
00:05:58,458 --> 00:05:59,499
that I think your own…

166
00:05:59,541 --> 00:06:00,458
When you're a teacher,

167
00:06:00,500 --> 00:06:02,458
and your own children always think…

168
00:06:02,500 --> 00:06:04,333
you know, they hear you yelling at other students,

169
00:06:04,375 --> 00:06:05,666
and they don't think anything about that.

170
00:06:05,708 --> 00:06:07,333
They think, "Well, that kid deserves that,"

171
00:06:07,375 --> 00:06:09,916
but when you're yelling at
you, it's like, "That's my mother.

172
00:06:09,958 --> 00:06:12,499
She's not supposed to make me behave."

173
00:06:12,541 --> 00:06:15,124
Somebody should've made a reality show about her.

174
00:06:15,166 --> 00:06:16,291
If she had lived a little bit longer

175
00:06:16,333 --> 00:06:17,333
into this era,

176
00:06:17,375 --> 00:06:21,166
there would've been an 11-season arc of…

177
00:06:21,208 --> 00:06:22,916
of her life.

178
00:06:22,958 --> 00:06:24,249
She was a character,

179
00:06:24,291 --> 00:06:25,124
and just a life force.

180
00:06:25,166 --> 00:06:26,583
I mean, clearly,

181
00:06:26,625 --> 00:06:28,666
that's where the life force came from.

182
00:06:28,708 --> 00:06:31,499
Step touch. Rock step.

183
00:06:31,541 --> 00:06:33,916
Heels. Heels. Heels. Heels. Heels. Heels…

184
00:06:33,958 --> 00:06:35,833
You could also just sort of sense

185
00:06:35,875 --> 00:06:37,791
that she had all her…

186
00:06:39,041 --> 00:06:41,458
energy fixated on him,

187
00:06:41,500 --> 00:06:42,458
for better or for worse.

188
00:06:42,500 --> 00:06:45,541
She actually told me at one point

189
00:06:45,583 --> 00:06:48,874
that the reason why she
picked the name "Patrick Swayze"

190
00:06:48,916 --> 00:06:52,791
was because she thought it
would look good on a marquee.

191
00:06:52,833 --> 00:06:55,458
He said his mom always had him in pre-god school.

192
00:06:56,625 --> 00:06:58,916
She trained him to be a god,

193
00:06:58,958 --> 00:07:00,458
not just excellent.

194
00:07:10,308 --> 00:07:11,849
Mom would introduce us.

195
00:07:11,891 --> 00:07:13,016
"Honey, come meet this new girl."

196
00:07:13,058 --> 00:07:14,349
She's starting class today.

197
00:07:14,391 --> 00:07:15,266
And this is my son.

198
00:07:15,308 --> 00:07:16,141
This is Patrick,

199
00:07:16,183 --> 00:07:17,808
he's this… that… and he's like…

200
00:07:17,850 --> 00:07:19,349
He's a wonderful athlete,

201
00:07:19,391 --> 00:07:20,724
"and isn't he gorgeous with the…"

202
00:07:20,766 --> 00:07:22,891
So, yeah, he was doing really well with the women,

203
00:07:22,933 --> 00:07:23,766
and knew it.

204
00:07:23,808 --> 00:07:25,474
He could walk into a… into a room,

205
00:07:25,516 --> 00:07:26,599
and all the girls flirting,

206
00:07:26,641 --> 00:07:28,516
but then here comes this little quiet blonde.

207
00:07:28,558 --> 00:07:31,016
The first time I met Patrick,

208
00:07:31,058 --> 00:07:33,308
I was involved with a children's theatre group

209
00:07:33,350 --> 00:07:34,766
in Houston, Texas,

210
00:07:34,808 --> 00:07:36,349
and they had joined forces

211
00:07:36,391 --> 00:07:40,141
with his mom's dance school and company.

212
00:07:40,183 --> 00:07:41,099
I walked by the doorway,

213
00:07:41,141 --> 00:07:43,183
I kinda looked in at the dance class,

214
00:07:43,225 --> 00:07:45,016
and she said, "Come on in."

215
00:07:45,058 --> 00:07:46,391
I said, "Well, you know,

216
00:07:46,433 --> 00:07:47,849
I don't really have the money to pay."

217
00:07:47,891 --> 00:07:49,849
She goes, "That doesn't matter!"

218
00:07:49,891 --> 00:07:52,099
And, actually, for, like, a full year,

219
00:07:52,141 --> 00:07:53,724
she taught me free of charge.

220
00:07:53,766 --> 00:07:55,016
Here comes Lisa.

221
00:07:55,058 --> 00:07:56,266
Sort of shy,

222
00:07:56,308 --> 00:07:58,933
and wouldn't fawn all over him like the other girls,

223
00:07:58,975 --> 00:08:01,558
and I think the challenge is what just drove him nuts.

224
00:08:01,600 --> 00:08:03,433
He had this kind of reputation of…

225
00:08:03,475 --> 00:08:04,974
of being this Casanova,

226
00:08:05,016 --> 00:08:07,641
and this egotistical guy,

227
00:08:07,683 --> 00:08:09,349
and I was, like, so quiet,

228
00:08:09,391 --> 00:08:11,349
you could almost make up anything about me.

229
00:08:11,391 --> 00:08:13,516
You know, there was definitely a spark,

230
00:08:13,558 --> 00:08:15,099
and something was happening,

231
00:08:15,141 --> 00:08:18,016
and, first time Buddy and I danced together

232
00:08:18,058 --> 00:08:20,266
was at a school exhibition.

233
00:08:20,308 --> 00:08:22,224
We walked out on stage…

234
00:08:22,266 --> 00:08:24,349
You'd kind of do your classic intro,

235
00:08:24,391 --> 00:08:28,099
where you kind of gesture to each other…

236
00:08:28,141 --> 00:08:29,224
And it was almost like

237
00:08:29,266 --> 00:08:31,308
the whole stage filled with light.

238
00:08:31,350 --> 00:08:33,558
Even though it was just,
like, school auditorium lights,

239
00:08:33,600 --> 00:08:35,766
but it was almost like we were lit,

240
00:08:35,808 --> 00:08:39,599
and the moment, uh… I looked in his eyes,

241
00:08:39,641 --> 00:08:41,683
it was like…

242
00:08:41,725 --> 00:08:43,849
just, everything came alive,

243
00:08:43,891 --> 00:08:45,600
and, uh…

244
00:08:53,891 --> 00:08:54,766
So…

245
00:08:54,808 --> 00:08:57,266
and it was just kind of…

246
00:08:57,308 --> 00:08:58,891
A kind of magic that happened,

247
00:08:58,933 --> 00:09:00,141
so…

248
00:09:00,183 --> 00:09:02,349
Part of it was the act of performing.

249
00:09:02,391 --> 00:09:04,849
You know, people who are performers

250
00:09:04,891 --> 00:09:09,474
know that wonderful magic that happens when you…

251
00:09:09,516 --> 00:09:12,558
when the lights come up on you on stage,

252
00:09:12,600 --> 00:09:15,433
but so much of it was what we saw in each other.

253
00:09:15,475 --> 00:09:17,641
There was something about him when I looked at him.

254
00:09:17,683 --> 00:09:19,558
What I saw was pure gold,

255
00:09:19,600 --> 00:09:22,933
and I… I…

256
00:09:22,975 --> 00:09:24,433
think, probably, he looked at me,

257
00:09:24,475 --> 00:09:26,016
and he saw something else

258
00:09:26,058 --> 00:09:29,475
than what other people were seeing also.

259
00:09:32,850 --> 00:09:35,224
When my brother was in 12th grade,

260
00:09:35,266 --> 00:09:38,058
he had a horrific accident in football.

261
00:09:38,100 --> 00:09:39,808
His leg broke inward.

262
00:09:39,850 --> 00:09:41,058
He completely broke his knee.

263
00:09:41,100 --> 00:09:42,183
The doctor had him on the table,

264
00:09:42,225 --> 00:09:44,058
and his leg would just go…

265
00:09:44,100 --> 00:09:45,349
from the knee down.

266
00:09:45,391 --> 00:09:47,974
He heard his mother crying in the other room.

267
00:09:48,016 --> 00:09:49,641
You know, he was lying there in pain,

268
00:09:49,683 --> 00:09:51,974
and she was sobbing in the other room.

269
00:09:52,016 --> 00:09:55,433
He thought he heard her say, "His life is over,"

270
00:09:55,475 --> 00:09:57,724
and he's 18, right?

271
00:09:57,766 --> 00:09:59,266
They put him in a full-length cast

272
00:09:59,308 --> 00:10:00,933
from his hip to his toes

273
00:10:00,975 --> 00:10:02,099
for six months,

274
00:10:02,141 --> 00:10:04,141
and then, when he got the cast off,

275
00:10:04,183 --> 00:10:06,099
that leg had atrophied.

276
00:10:06,141 --> 00:10:07,891
And, of course,

277
00:10:07,933 --> 00:10:10,433
with every pore of his… fibre in his being,

278
00:10:10,475 --> 00:10:12,141
he was gonna overcome that.

279
00:10:12,183 --> 00:10:15,016
You could see something just switch, you know?

280
00:10:15,058 --> 00:10:17,141
That became what drove him,

281
00:10:17,183 --> 00:10:20,724
like he was going to show them
that they were wrong about him.

282
00:10:20,766 --> 00:10:22,891
What had been something
we might have taken for granted

283
00:10:22,933 --> 00:10:23,849
our whole life

284
00:10:23,891 --> 00:10:25,016
became his everything.

285
00:10:25,058 --> 00:10:26,433
He came to class every day.

286
00:10:26,475 --> 00:10:28,891
Mom didn't have to trick him to come to class,

287
00:10:28,933 --> 00:10:30,266
and in, like, two years,

288
00:10:30,308 --> 00:10:31,516
18 to 20,

289
00:10:31,558 --> 00:10:34,016
he became a world-class dancer.

290
00:10:36,558 --> 00:10:40,016
Dancing still holds
a very close place in my heart,

291
00:10:40,058 --> 00:10:41,433
but I ultimately had to quit,

292
00:10:41,475 --> 00:10:43,349
because I had four complete knee reconstructions,

293
00:10:43,391 --> 00:10:45,099
which doesn't work too well as a dancer.

294
00:10:45,141 --> 00:10:46,641
You were clumsy? Or…

295
00:10:48,391 --> 00:10:50,058
…landed on your knees on some of those…

296
00:10:50,100 --> 00:10:51,016
Sort of.

297
00:10:51,058 --> 00:10:51,933
…leaps?

298
00:10:51,975 --> 00:10:53,391
First one was football,

299
00:10:53,433 --> 00:10:55,224
and then, because I couldn't accept the limitation,

300
00:10:55,266 --> 00:10:56,349
and went ahead and went to New York

301
00:10:56,391 --> 00:10:57,849
and danced with ballet companies,

302
00:10:57,891 --> 00:10:59,933
I caused four more operations.

303
00:10:59,975 --> 00:11:01,849
If you know anything it's the hardest thing

304
00:11:01,891 --> 00:11:03,683
anyone could ever put their bodies through,

305
00:11:03,725 --> 00:11:05,308
and to do it with a crippled knee

306
00:11:05,350 --> 00:11:07,516
was just, you know, extraordinary.

307
00:11:08,975 --> 00:11:10,766
When he went off to New York,

308
00:11:10,808 --> 00:11:12,974
I remember seeing him on stage

309
00:11:13,016 --> 00:11:15,391
in Eliot Feld Ballet.

310
00:11:15,433 --> 00:11:18,391
He was probably at his best at that point.

311
00:11:18,433 --> 00:11:21,349
With his ballet technique, and his lines, and…

312
00:11:21,391 --> 00:11:24,099
his feet were looking good.

313
00:11:26,058 --> 00:11:27,224
I thought to myself,

314
00:11:27,266 --> 00:11:29,058
"There's nothing more beautiful

315
00:11:29,100 --> 00:11:33,766
than seeing a masculine man move with such a grace."

316
00:11:33,808 --> 00:11:34,641
Buddy had that,

317
00:11:34,683 --> 00:11:37,474
and, like, almost nobody else did.

318
00:11:37,516 --> 00:11:38,433
You know?

319
00:11:38,475 --> 00:11:39,308
Not like that.

320
00:11:43,891 --> 00:11:46,766
He had star quality, and it was, like…

321
00:11:46,808 --> 00:11:47,808
It was awesome.

322
00:11:54,391 --> 00:11:55,974
When I went to New York to dance,

323
00:11:56,016 --> 00:11:58,349
I went on scholarship,

324
00:11:58,391 --> 00:11:59,849
and I was absolutely thrilled,

325
00:11:59,891 --> 00:12:01,266
because I'm living the dream.

326
00:12:01,308 --> 00:12:04,099
Buddy had been in New York for a couple of years,

327
00:12:04,141 --> 00:12:07,308
so he goes, "Move in with me.

328
00:12:07,350 --> 00:12:09,933
We're all gonna be bunking in
this one-bedroom apartment."

329
00:12:09,975 --> 00:12:11,974
They were all dancers.

330
00:12:12,016 --> 00:12:14,058
The moment I moved in,

331
00:12:14,100 --> 00:12:16,808
two people left, like, two days later.

332
00:12:16,850 --> 00:12:18,724
All of a sudden, I'm here with Buddy,

333
00:12:18,766 --> 00:12:19,599
alone.

334
00:12:20,600 --> 00:12:22,558
You know, I knew I…

335
00:12:22,600 --> 00:12:25,766
there was this thing happening between us,

336
00:12:25,808 --> 00:12:27,766
but I was there to dance.

337
00:12:27,808 --> 00:12:30,475
I wasn't there to have a romantic relationship.

338
00:12:32,058 --> 00:12:33,433
I guess we'd been living together

339
00:12:33,475 --> 00:12:35,933
for about a year,

340
00:12:35,975 --> 00:12:39,433
and we were in a tickling fight on our loofah couch,

341
00:12:39,475 --> 00:12:42,141
and when he stopped, he says, "Let's do it."

342
00:12:42,183 --> 00:12:43,849
"Do what?"

343
00:12:43,891 --> 00:12:45,849
He says, "Let's get married."

344
00:12:45,891 --> 00:12:48,516
I was just, like, absolutely in terror,

345
00:12:48,558 --> 00:12:52,349
but Patrick was pretty good
at getting his way about things.

346
00:12:52,391 --> 00:12:54,266
He could charm a bird out of a tree.

347
00:12:54,308 --> 00:12:57,599
He certainly never gives up,

348
00:12:57,641 --> 00:12:59,933
and we ended up getting married a month later.

349
00:13:01,391 --> 00:13:04,058
It was a big risk, because we were both so young.

350
00:13:04,100 --> 00:13:06,266
You know, we had some bumps along the way

351
00:13:06,308 --> 00:13:07,516
in the beginning,

352
00:13:07,558 --> 00:13:09,141
but we were definitely stronger together.

353
00:13:09,183 --> 00:13:11,224
That became clear very…

354
00:13:11,266 --> 00:13:12,016
very quickly.

355
00:13:14,600 --> 00:13:17,016
There's a lot of pride in being a dancer,

356
00:13:17,058 --> 00:13:19,683
because there's so much that's mind over matter.

357
00:13:19,725 --> 00:13:22,349
He had to overcome so much pain all the time,

358
00:13:22,391 --> 00:13:25,349
and he did it by mental discipline,

359
00:13:25,391 --> 00:13:28,016
and Patrick was a master of that.

360
00:13:28,058 --> 00:13:30,016
His years in New York as a dancer

361
00:13:30,058 --> 00:13:31,808
were spent on a crippled knee,

362
00:13:31,850 --> 00:13:34,474
and then when he starred as Danny Zuko

363
00:13:34,516 --> 00:13:36,016
in Grease on Broadway…

364
00:13:36,058 --> 00:13:38,308
It was his first professional acting role…

365
00:13:38,350 --> 00:13:39,724
And all the '50s stuff,

366
00:13:39,766 --> 00:13:41,849
the knee-slides across the
floor on this badly damaged knee,

367
00:13:41,891 --> 00:13:43,599
he was probably smart enough to realize

368
00:13:43,641 --> 00:13:45,516
that this was doing some real damage.

369
00:13:45,558 --> 00:13:47,641
He did a couple commercials in New York City.

Bob LeMond,

378
00:14:04,725 --> 00:14:06,183
he was a very powerful manager at that time,

379
00:14:06,225 --> 00:14:08,349
and he said, "Listen, you know,

380
00:14:08,391 --> 00:14:10,183
you could stay in New York,

381
00:14:10,225 --> 00:14:13,558
but if you really wanna get work,

382
00:14:13,600 --> 00:14:15,058
Los Angeles is where you need to be."

383
00:14:15,100 --> 00:14:16,349
Pabst…

384
00:14:16,391 --> 00:14:18,433
a lot to look forward to.

385
00:14:18,475 --> 00:14:19,849
We kinda thought about it,

386
00:14:19,891 --> 00:14:21,016
and we said, "Let's take that leap,"

387
00:14:21,058 --> 00:14:24,308
packed up our two cats and took a flight to L.A.

388
00:14:38,041 --> 00:14:40,416
I remember in the early days when he came out here,

389
00:14:40,458 --> 00:14:42,499
he used to drive up to Mulholland,

390
00:14:42,541 --> 00:14:45,833
and he used to look out over Hollywood

391
00:14:45,875 --> 00:14:48,208
and sort of say to himself,

392
00:14:48,250 --> 00:14:50,416
"I'm gonna conquer you…

393
00:14:50,458 --> 00:14:52,333
I'm gonna conquer you,"

394
00:14:52,375 --> 00:14:54,249
and I think that's something that probably drove him

395
00:14:54,291 --> 00:14:56,333
in many areas of his life,

396
00:14:56,375 --> 00:14:58,291
and yet, there was an insecurity there too.

397
00:14:58,333 --> 00:15:01,666
Maybe that's why he had to keep telling himself that.

398
00:15:01,708 --> 00:15:04,333
When he moved to California,

399
00:15:04,375 --> 00:15:05,541
now he didn't have the dance.

400
00:15:05,583 --> 00:15:08,708
He was basically starting out auditioning

401
00:15:08,750 --> 00:15:09,749
like everyone else.

402
00:15:09,791 --> 00:15:11,708
At that time, you know,

403
00:15:11,750 --> 00:15:13,458
I needed a job bad,

404
00:15:13,500 --> 00:15:16,166
and I was just looking for any way to make a…

405
00:15:16,208 --> 00:15:16,999
Make a mark, you know,

406
00:15:17,041 --> 00:15:18,458
to get some attention.

407
00:15:29,791 --> 00:15:30,749
Such an amazing dancer

408
00:15:30,791 --> 00:15:33,708
that it carried over into roller skating.

409
00:15:33,750 --> 00:15:36,083
I think Skatetown, U.S.A.

410
00:15:36,125 --> 00:15:37,333
was probably not the greatest movie,

411
00:15:37,375 --> 00:15:39,291
but his skating is phenomenal.

412
00:15:41,083 --> 00:15:43,124
Anybody that could be sexy in roller skates

413
00:15:43,166 --> 00:15:44,208
had something,

414
00:15:44,250 --> 00:15:46,333
because those are big clunkers on your feet,

415
00:15:46,375 --> 00:15:47,791
and it's hard to be graceful, and he was.

416
00:15:49,708 --> 00:15:51,499
When Patrick comes on to do the solo,

417
00:15:51,541 --> 00:15:52,624
he has gum in his mouth,

418
00:15:52,666 --> 00:15:53,875
and he takes it, and he flicks it…

419
00:15:56,375 --> 00:16:00,208
In that moment, anybody could tell,

420
00:16:00,250 --> 00:16:03,999
"Oh, my god, this guy is it."

421
00:16:07,250 --> 00:16:10,416
You could tell from Skatetown, U.S.A.

422
00:16:10,458 --> 00:16:11,749
that Patrick was a star.

423
00:16:11,791 --> 00:16:14,083
I knew I had something special.

424
00:16:14,125 --> 00:16:15,833
I didn't know how special,

425
00:16:15,875 --> 00:16:17,208
but I knew it was special.

426
00:16:17,250 --> 00:16:18,416
There's an energy.

427
00:16:18,458 --> 00:16:19,874
There's something that happens.

428
00:16:19,916 --> 00:16:21,374
There's a chemistry with the camera.

429
00:16:21,416 --> 00:16:23,333
There's just something that happens

430
00:16:23,375 --> 00:16:25,166
that you either have or you don't have,

431
00:16:25,208 --> 00:16:28,541
and he had it so big.

432
00:16:28,583 --> 00:16:30,333
I didn't expect what
happened out of Skatetown.

433
00:16:30,375 --> 00:16:31,708
After I did it,

434
00:16:31,750 --> 00:16:34,208
Kevin Thomas of the L.A. Times, he was saying stuff like,

435
00:16:34,250 --> 00:16:35,874
"Not since John Travolta in Saturday Night Fever…"

436
00:16:35,916 --> 00:16:37,749
No, not since Valentino

437
00:16:37,791 --> 00:16:39,583
in The Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse

438
00:16:39,625 --> 00:16:42,791
has there been such a display of male sexuality

439
00:16:42,833 --> 00:16:44,083
"on the screen."

440
00:16:44,125 --> 00:16:47,749
You don't picture yourself
as a sex symbol or anything,

441
00:16:47,791 --> 00:16:49,541
so when I saw this happen, I thought, "Oh, jeez,

442
00:16:49,583 --> 00:16:52,624
I'm gonna turn into a… a teen idol."

443
00:16:52,666 --> 00:16:54,666
Patrick was very concerned

444
00:16:54,708 --> 00:16:56,624
that he would be pigeonholed

445
00:16:56,666 --> 00:16:59,166
and not taken seriously as an actor,

446
00:16:59,208 --> 00:17:02,249
and he was offered a multi-picture deal

447
00:17:02,291 --> 00:17:03,333
at Columbia,

448
00:17:03,375 --> 00:17:05,708
which he turned down,

449
00:17:05,750 --> 00:17:08,083
which, for a young guy starting out,

450
00:17:08,125 --> 00:17:09,666
was kind of unheard of.

451
00:17:09,708 --> 00:17:12,458
I just knew that something bad would happen,

452
00:17:12,500 --> 00:17:13,916
or I would turn into a teen idol

453
00:17:13,958 --> 00:17:14,999
and be a flash in the pan,

454
00:17:15,041 --> 00:17:17,208
and be out of here in the next five minutes.

455
00:17:17,250 --> 00:17:19,958
So I turned it all down

456
00:17:20,000 --> 00:17:21,458
and buried myself back into acting classes.

457
00:17:21,500 --> 00:17:23,249
You know, he could do those things

458
00:17:23,291 --> 00:17:26,958
and be a flash in the pan,

459
00:17:27,000 --> 00:17:29,166
and, you know, he wanted a long career,

460
00:17:29,208 --> 00:17:30,375
so he was willing to wait.

461
00:17:31,875 --> 00:17:33,708
We were, like, totally broke.

462
00:17:33,750 --> 00:17:34,958
We had to go to our families,

463
00:17:35,000 --> 00:17:36,541
and, "Can somebody loan us some money

464
00:17:36,583 --> 00:17:38,083
just to get by?"

465
00:17:38,125 --> 00:17:39,666
Nobody had extra cash.

466
00:17:39,708 --> 00:17:41,999
I'm going, "Okay, this is what it's like

467
00:17:42,041 --> 00:17:43,541
really to be broke,"

468
00:17:43,583 --> 00:17:45,999
but we got carpenter jobs,

469
00:17:46,041 --> 00:17:46,833
and then, finally,

470
00:17:46,875 --> 00:17:49,041
we're in the middle of this job

471
00:17:49,083 --> 00:17:52,208
where part of it is building a doghouse

472
00:17:52,250 --> 00:17:54,624
for two German Shepherds.

473
00:17:54,666 --> 00:17:57,166
I'm called to the phone, it's Buddy.

474
00:17:57,208 --> 00:17:59,333
"Guess where I am?" he goes.

475
00:17:59,375 --> 00:18:01,583
I said, "I don't know."

476
00:18:01,625 --> 00:18:04,499
He says, "I'm at the DeLorean dealership.

477
00:18:04,541 --> 00:18:05,874
I just bought a DeLorean.

478
00:18:05,916 --> 00:18:07,791
Oh, by the way, I got this series."

479
00:18:15,208 --> 00:18:16,541
We're, like, "Praise from heaven," you know,

480
00:18:16,583 --> 00:18:17,708
that he got that,

481
00:18:17,750 --> 00:18:19,541
and so, he… he started the series,

482
00:18:19,583 --> 00:18:21,166
and I finished the doghouse.

483
00:18:28,208 --> 00:18:30,166
He had one of the first DeLoreans ever.

484
00:18:30,208 --> 00:18:31,499
With the gull-wing doors.

485
00:18:34,333 --> 00:18:36,249
He loved that car so much.

486
00:18:36,291 --> 00:18:37,708
In fact, he was driving on the street,

487
00:18:37,750 --> 00:18:39,291
he didn't have his seatbelt on.

488
00:18:39,333 --> 00:18:41,291
I'm like, "Buddy, put your seatbelt on."

489
00:18:41,333 --> 00:18:43,499
You know, "What if somebody pulls out in front of you

490
00:18:43,541 --> 00:18:44,541
or something?"

491
00:18:44,583 --> 00:18:46,541
He goes, "If something happens to this car,

492
00:18:46,583 --> 00:18:47,500
I don't wanna live."

493
00:18:49,416 --> 00:18:51,749
I think it was a way of showing my father

494
00:18:51,791 --> 00:18:53,208
that he's off and running.

495
00:18:53,250 --> 00:18:54,499
His career's gonna take off,

496
00:18:54,541 --> 00:18:57,208
and to the point where he
can buy something frivolous,

497
00:18:57,250 --> 00:18:59,124
so that was the DeLorean.

498
00:18:59,166 --> 00:19:00,874
His dad was so proud.

499
00:19:00,916 --> 00:19:02,874
Buddy was in this TV series.

500
00:19:02,916 --> 00:19:05,874
He's a big success now, right?

501
00:19:05,916 --> 00:19:07,124
We'd show up and he'd go,

502
00:19:07,166 --> 00:19:10,791
"What are you doing driving up in the kitchen sink?"

503
00:19:10,833 --> 00:19:11,999
He called it the kitchen sink

504
00:19:12,041 --> 00:19:13,583
because it was stainless steel, so…

505
00:19:15,958 --> 00:19:18,916
Live the dream today.

506
00:19:18,958 --> 00:19:20,666
Pleasing Mom and Dad was important to my brother.

507
00:19:20,708 --> 00:19:23,333
He had Mom with the dance

508
00:19:23,375 --> 00:19:25,249
and the theatre expectations,

509
00:19:25,291 --> 00:19:28,166
but Dad, who had always kept us grounded,

510
00:19:28,208 --> 00:19:30,874
I think it was important for my big brother

511
00:19:30,916 --> 00:19:32,583
to show Dad that,

512
00:19:32,625 --> 00:19:34,916
"Still grounded, Dad. Still…

513
00:19:34,958 --> 00:19:36,666
Still a chip off the old block…"

514
00:19:40,875 --> 00:19:42,333
and…

515
00:19:42,375 --> 00:19:44,291
my father died very suddenly.

516
00:19:47,500 --> 00:19:49,708
Patrick was real quiet when my father died.

517
00:19:49,750 --> 00:19:52,124
He was, like, stunned.

518
00:19:52,166 --> 00:19:53,833
Literally, his…

519
00:19:53,875 --> 00:19:56,416
his legs collapsed from underneath him,

520
00:19:56,458 --> 00:19:58,291
and he started weeping.

521
00:19:58,333 --> 00:20:00,999
My big brother had always identified himself

522
00:20:01,041 --> 00:20:02,249
as Little Buddy.

523
00:20:02,291 --> 00:20:03,458
Big Buddy, Little Buddy.

524
00:20:04,500 --> 00:20:07,791
Now that my dad was gone, he…

525
00:20:07,833 --> 00:20:09,791
I don't think he knew what to do with it.

526
00:20:09,833 --> 00:20:10,958
My father died of a heart attack,

527
00:20:11,000 --> 00:20:12,749
and being a smoker…

528
00:20:12,791 --> 00:20:13,999
And he was a beer drinker.

529
00:20:14,041 --> 00:20:14,791
He wasn't bad, I wouldn't…

530
00:20:14,833 --> 00:20:16,291
I don't know what you call bad,

531
00:20:16,333 --> 00:20:17,374
but there was no denying

532
00:20:17,416 --> 00:20:20,291
that cigarettes and alcohol were the cause.

533
00:20:20,333 --> 00:20:22,708
A man 57 years old dies of a massive heart attack,

534
00:20:22,750 --> 00:20:24,083
so how did we react?

535
00:20:24,125 --> 00:20:26,666
You know, my older brother started drinking,

536
00:20:26,708 --> 00:20:28,249
and instead of…

537
00:20:28,291 --> 00:20:30,708
going the other way,

538
00:20:30,750 --> 00:20:35,749
he sort of went down the path that my father went down.

539
00:20:35,791 --> 00:20:38,916
He would have a few drinks himself,

540
00:20:38,958 --> 00:20:41,874
start tearing ass in his DeLorean

541
00:20:41,916 --> 00:20:45,041
on the windy streets of Mulholland.

542
00:20:45,083 --> 00:20:46,958
He was in a really bad way,

543
00:20:47,000 --> 00:20:49,541
and it was… it was dangerous with him driving,

544
00:20:49,583 --> 00:20:51,541
and, you know, and of course, I…

545
00:20:51,583 --> 00:20:53,916
You know, it was very upsetting for me

546
00:20:53,958 --> 00:20:56,791
to see him hurting himself this way.

547
00:20:56,833 --> 00:20:58,999
Everything that he had wanted to accomplish,

548
00:20:59,041 --> 00:21:01,083
he didn't know if he even wanted to do it anymore,

549
00:21:01,125 --> 00:21:02,208
because everything he was doing

550
00:21:02,250 --> 00:21:04,333
was for… for my father.

551
00:21:04,375 --> 00:21:07,458
It was like yanking the rug out from under him.

552
00:21:08,750 --> 00:21:09,666
More than anything,

553
00:21:09,708 --> 00:21:11,583
he wanted his dad to be proud of him,

554
00:21:11,625 --> 00:21:12,749
and that was sort of

555
00:21:12,791 --> 00:21:15,833
a driving force for the rest of his whole life,

556
00:21:15,875 --> 00:21:17,583
and I think, probably,

557
00:21:17,625 --> 00:21:18,874
he felt the responsibility

558
00:21:18,916 --> 00:21:20,916
of tending to his career

559
00:21:20,958 --> 00:21:22,916
balanced against the responsibility

560
00:21:22,958 --> 00:21:25,708
of this void that had come up in his life

561
00:21:25,750 --> 00:21:27,916
that was completely unexpected,

562
00:21:27,958 --> 00:21:29,375
and how was he going to do that?

563
00:21:39,650 --> 00:21:41,733
When I did The Outsiders, I was all of 14,

564
00:21:41,775 --> 00:21:43,024
and everybody else was a little bit older,

565
00:21:43,066 --> 00:21:45,024
and having that anchor point,

566
00:21:45,066 --> 00:21:48,149
that connection with Patrick…

567
00:21:48,191 --> 00:21:50,233
provided a little safety net for me at that age.

568
00:21:50,275 --> 00:21:51,608
It was natural for him.

569
00:21:51,650 --> 00:21:53,024
He was a natural leader.

570
00:21:53,066 --> 00:21:54,316
That was so intense then.

571
00:21:54,358 --> 00:21:57,483
I can't believe Tom Cruise, and Emilio, and everybody

572
00:21:57,525 --> 00:21:58,316
don't hate my guts.

573
00:21:58,358 --> 00:21:59,399
Probably some of them do.

574
00:21:59,441 --> 00:22:01,274
But…

575
00:22:01,316 --> 00:22:02,899
Because, you know, I was always just, like, driven.

576
00:22:02,941 --> 00:22:04,358
I was just…

577
00:22:04,400 --> 00:22:06,733
and…

578
00:22:06,775 --> 00:22:07,691
You didn't join in the fun

579
00:22:07,733 --> 00:22:08,941
or the camaraderie of the…?

580
00:22:08,983 --> 00:22:10,649
Well, I joined in the camaraderie,

581
00:22:10,691 --> 00:22:12,024
but I had to be boss.

582
00:22:12,066 --> 00:22:14,024
He might have been the toughest on himself

583
00:22:14,066 --> 00:22:15,316
of anybody.

584
00:22:15,358 --> 00:22:17,733
He was unbelievably driven.

585
00:22:17,775 --> 00:22:20,774
He just wanted to be the biggest badass on the set,

586
00:22:20,816 --> 00:22:21,816
and that was his thing,

587
00:22:21,858 --> 00:22:25,274
and I admire that, man, I so admire that.

588
00:22:25,316 --> 00:22:26,733
Today they call it big… energy.

589
00:22:28,775 --> 00:22:30,774
Because Patrick was so physical,

590
00:22:30,816 --> 00:22:31,858
he's such a physical being,

591
00:22:31,900 --> 00:22:33,774
he looks like such a badass in that rumble,

592
00:22:33,816 --> 00:22:34,899
and we were, like,

593
00:22:34,941 --> 00:22:38,191
having to take screen fighting lessons, and…

594
00:22:38,233 --> 00:22:41,399
I mean, I'd never thrown a punch on screen, ever.

595
00:22:41,441 --> 00:22:44,108
His work ethic,

596
00:22:44,150 --> 00:22:47,691
his need to do well

597
00:22:47,733 --> 00:22:49,274
was unprecedented,

598
00:22:49,316 --> 00:22:50,524
and that's saying something,

599
00:22:50,566 --> 00:22:51,899
because Tom Cruise was in the movie.

600
00:22:51,941 --> 00:22:54,566
If you could harness the two of their intensity,

601
00:22:54,608 --> 00:22:58,108
you know, we could get off of fossil fuels.

602
00:23:01,108 --> 00:23:02,483
When we made The Outsiders,

603
00:23:02,525 --> 00:23:05,233
we knew we were making something special,

604
00:23:05,275 --> 00:23:06,399
because it was Francis.

605
00:23:06,441 --> 00:23:08,941
I mean, he was the biggest director in the world

606
00:23:08,983 --> 00:23:10,066
at the time.

607
00:23:10,108 --> 00:23:11,441
His body of work was,

608
00:23:11,483 --> 00:23:14,066
and remains,

609
00:23:14,108 --> 00:23:15,691
maybe the best ever,

610
00:23:15,733 --> 00:23:18,566
and he was at the height of his powers.

611
00:23:18,608 --> 00:23:20,608
What we didn't know, I don't think, was how…

612
00:23:20,650 --> 00:23:22,233
What it would do for our careers.

613
00:23:22,275 --> 00:23:23,108
Honestly, we didn't.

614
00:23:23,150 --> 00:23:24,024
I know that sounds insane,

615
00:23:24,066 --> 00:23:26,191
but we really didn't.

616
00:23:26,233 --> 00:23:29,441
I think we thought the movie, frankly,

617
00:23:29,483 --> 00:23:30,649
would be bigger than it was,

618
00:23:30,691 --> 00:23:34,316
but instead, we were bigger

619
00:23:34,358 --> 00:23:35,275
than we thought it would be.

620
00:23:36,983 --> 00:23:38,691
At this point,

621
00:23:38,733 --> 00:23:41,483
Buddy had had quite a bit of success.

622
00:23:41,525 --> 00:23:44,149
You know, both of us are Texans,

623
00:23:44,191 --> 00:23:47,816
so it was always our dream to have a ranch.

624
00:23:47,858 --> 00:23:49,066
The moment I started making enough money,

625
00:23:49,108 --> 00:23:49,983
I bought a ranch,

626
00:23:50,025 --> 00:23:51,691
and I got away from Hollywood.

627
00:23:51,733 --> 00:23:53,024
As soon as he could,

628
00:23:53,066 --> 00:23:57,316
he and Lisa bought five acres right on the edge of L.A.

629
00:23:57,358 --> 00:23:59,399
where his back fence was butt up against

630
00:23:59,441 --> 00:24:01,149
the Angeles National Forest.

631
00:24:01,191 --> 00:24:02,649
It was like having a million-acre ranch.

632
00:24:02,691 --> 00:24:05,566
It was just a dry piece of dirt,

633
00:24:05,608 --> 00:24:06,941
some rusted auto parts,

634
00:24:06,983 --> 00:24:09,150
tumbleweeds actually blowing through.

635
00:24:10,816 --> 00:24:12,816
As he did movies, we made more money,

636
00:24:12,858 --> 00:24:16,774
we turned it into our private little paradise.

637
00:24:16,816 --> 00:24:19,399
We were able to have our horses there.

638
00:24:19,441 --> 00:24:21,274
We started with corrals,

639
00:24:21,316 --> 00:24:23,566
then we built a barn…

640
00:24:23,608 --> 00:24:26,483
it all kind of went from there.

641
00:24:26,525 --> 00:24:27,899
In a way, this is sort of, like…

642
00:24:27,941 --> 00:24:29,524
This horse stuff,

643
00:24:29,566 --> 00:24:32,191
even though it's for me, and Lisa too, and…

644
00:24:32,233 --> 00:24:35,191
it's, you know, a bit honoring my father, you know?

645
00:24:35,233 --> 00:24:36,066
How terrific.

646
00:24:36,108 --> 00:24:38,025
You know, a memorial to him.

647
00:24:41,275 --> 00:24:46,816
♪ I'm an old cowhand on the Rio Grande… ♪

648
00:24:46,858 --> 00:24:48,024
He had a quarter horse,

649
00:24:48,066 --> 00:24:49,774
Cloud,

650
00:24:49,816 --> 00:24:51,983
he'd ridden and cut cattle with.

651
00:24:52,025 --> 00:24:54,983
Cloud was gonna live out his days at the ranch.

652
00:24:55,025 --> 00:24:57,983
He had a horse-whisperer quality about him.

653
00:24:59,566 --> 00:25:00,608
There were several times

654
00:25:00,650 --> 00:25:02,524
when Buddy was really upset,

655
00:25:02,566 --> 00:25:04,608
maybe he had some disappointment,

656
00:25:04,650 --> 00:25:06,024
and he got on Cloud,

657
00:25:06,066 --> 00:25:08,024
he packed a little knapsack, got on Cloud,

658
00:25:08,066 --> 00:25:09,191
and went back in the mountains,

659
00:25:09,233 --> 00:25:10,774
slept overnight.

660
00:25:10,816 --> 00:25:13,691
It really helped to kind of
bring him back down to earth.

661
00:25:13,733 --> 00:25:17,399
Being an actor fed something in his soul.

662
00:25:17,441 --> 00:25:19,733
He knew he was good at it,

663
00:25:19,775 --> 00:25:22,358
but give him his preferences,

664
00:25:22,400 --> 00:25:24,899
he would be at home with the horses,

665
00:25:24,941 --> 00:25:28,233
working with a toolbelt around his waist,

666
00:25:28,275 --> 00:25:32,149
working on the ranch, working on the earth.

667
00:25:32,191 --> 00:25:34,149
He rented the bulldozer, and the backhoes,

668
00:25:34,191 --> 00:25:36,024
and figured it out, almost flipped the thing.

669
00:25:36,066 --> 00:25:37,066
I mean, he learned the hard way

670
00:25:37,108 --> 00:25:38,858
how to move dirt.

671
00:25:38,900 --> 00:25:40,649
He just came from this place of…

672
00:25:40,691 --> 00:25:43,941
this grounded, dirt-moving cowboy place.

673
00:25:49,650 --> 00:25:55,941
Hi, this is rock 'n' roll on Rancho Bizarro.

674
00:25:55,983 --> 00:25:57,566
Patrick was a real homebody.

675
00:25:57,608 --> 00:25:59,024
He liked being home.

676
00:25:59,066 --> 00:26:00,816
We had everything we needed right there.

677
00:26:00,858 --> 00:26:01,983
We didn't need to go anywhere.

678
00:26:02,025 --> 00:26:04,691
Are you a cowgirl?

679
00:26:04,733 --> 00:26:07,399
He was proud that we were more real,

680
00:26:07,441 --> 00:26:08,941
and that we didn't live in Beverly Hills.

681
00:26:08,983 --> 00:26:11,400
You like horses?

682
00:26:12,983 --> 00:26:14,483
He says, "We chose to live on a ranch

683
00:26:14,525 --> 00:26:18,358
rather than with the monkeys in the cage,"

684
00:26:18,400 --> 00:26:20,358
and that's what going over the hill…

685
00:26:20,400 --> 00:26:22,358
We'd call it going over the hill…

686
00:26:22,400 --> 00:26:25,524
Is going over to see the monkeys in the cage.

687
00:26:25,566 --> 00:26:27,858
I have to tell you,

688
00:26:27,900 --> 00:26:30,566
one of my best friends has seen Dirty Dancing

689
00:26:30,608 --> 00:26:32,733
I think about 20 times,

690
00:26:32,775 --> 00:26:34,941
so I want you to say hello to Nancy.

691
00:26:34,983 --> 00:26:36,149
-Nancy?
-Yeah.

692
00:26:36,191 --> 00:26:38,441
Hi, Nancy, and thanks for seeing it so many times,

693
00:26:38,483 --> 00:26:40,941
and you're the reason why it's working so well.

694
00:26:55,650 --> 00:26:57,066
It's almost unheard of

695
00:26:57,108 --> 00:26:59,983
for the woman to be cast before the man…

696
00:27:00,025 --> 00:27:01,066
ever.

697
00:27:01,108 --> 00:27:02,608
So I was cast,

698
00:27:02,650 --> 00:27:03,816
and then, there was a…

699
00:27:03,858 --> 00:27:06,108
There were a bunch of really good actors

700
00:27:06,150 --> 00:27:08,149
who had to come and dance with me,

701
00:27:08,191 --> 00:27:09,774
as part of their screen test.

702
00:27:09,816 --> 00:27:12,483
I first met Patrick when we were shooting Red Dawn.

703
00:27:12,525 --> 00:27:13,524
We were in New Mexico,

704
00:27:13,566 --> 00:27:14,983
and I remember Lea Thompson and I

705
00:27:15,025 --> 00:27:16,816
were the only girls,

706
00:27:16,858 --> 00:27:19,608
and it was Tommy Howell, it was Charlie Sheen,

707
00:27:19,650 --> 00:27:20,566
it was Patrick…

708
00:27:20,608 --> 00:27:23,149
and Patrick was very much…

709
00:27:23,191 --> 00:27:24,983
He's very alpha, as you know…

710
00:27:25,025 --> 00:27:25,983
As you can maybe imagine.

711
00:27:26,025 --> 00:27:28,733
They pulled this prank on me where they…

712
00:27:28,775 --> 00:27:29,941
I don't know,

713
00:27:29,983 --> 00:27:33,483
they had all of these fire crackers, or something,

714
00:27:33,525 --> 00:27:37,108
explosions that they were doing at my door

715
00:27:37,150 --> 00:27:38,774
while I was trying to sleep,

716
00:27:38,816 --> 00:27:40,941
and so, when they told me they were going to cast him,

717
00:27:40,983 --> 00:27:42,816
I was like, "Oh, no, not that guy,

718
00:27:42,858 --> 00:27:44,274
not that guy, not that guy.

719
00:27:44,316 --> 00:27:47,066
I just finished a movie with him, and he's like,

720
00:27:47,108 --> 00:27:49,233
you know… ugh, god…"

721
00:27:49,275 --> 00:27:50,316
It was like that,

722
00:27:50,358 --> 00:27:53,649
but as soon as we started dancing together,

723
00:27:53,691 --> 00:27:56,233
it was just like…

724
00:28:06,691 --> 00:28:10,900
♪ I look in the mirror, and all I see… ♪

725
00:28:14,800 --> 00:28:17,466
There was a… like, a feeling of…

726
00:28:17,508 --> 00:28:19,008
like, an easy chair…

727
00:28:19,050 --> 00:28:21,466
like a sexy easy chair,

728
00:28:21,508 --> 00:28:23,508
like a really hot easy chair.

729
00:28:23,550 --> 00:28:25,299
It was just like a really good ride.

730
00:28:29,716 --> 00:28:32,424
♪ Living without her ♪

731
00:28:32,466 --> 00:28:36,841
♪ I'd go insane ♪

732
00:28:36,883 --> 00:28:38,049
♪ Feel the breath in my face ♪

733
00:28:38,091 --> 00:28:40,466
He's a professional ballet dancer,

734
00:28:40,508 --> 00:28:42,924
which means he knows how to connect through dance,

735
00:28:42,966 --> 00:28:45,008
and he knows how to take care of the woman

736
00:28:45,050 --> 00:28:46,383
in partner dancing,

737
00:28:46,425 --> 00:28:47,883
because that's what you have to do

738
00:28:47,925 --> 00:28:50,549
to be a great dancer as a male dancer.

739
00:28:50,591 --> 00:28:52,674
The key… yeah, the key to being a good partner,

740
00:28:52,716 --> 00:28:54,049
the man's function

741
00:28:54,091 --> 00:28:55,841
is you bring no focus to yourself.

742
00:28:55,883 --> 00:28:58,466
Your whole function is to make the woman beautiful,

743
00:28:58,508 --> 00:28:59,716
make her flow, make…

744
00:28:59,758 --> 00:29:03,633
make her movement ecstasy and flight, you know?

745
00:29:03,675 --> 00:29:06,716
She looks good.

746
00:29:06,758 --> 00:29:07,799
Looking back on the movie,

747
00:29:07,841 --> 00:29:10,508
I feel like it was, and is,

748
00:29:10,550 --> 00:29:11,799
a feminist movie.

749
00:29:11,841 --> 00:29:14,299
This guy is a feminist.

750
00:29:14,341 --> 00:29:16,466
You know, Johnny Castle is a feminist.

751
00:29:16,508 --> 00:29:18,008
He comes together with me…

752
00:29:18,050 --> 00:29:19,716
Not me, Baby…

753
00:29:19,758 --> 00:29:23,383
And he shifts her reality.

754
00:29:23,425 --> 00:29:26,883
Baby transforms from being a daddy's girl

755
00:29:26,925 --> 00:29:32,633
to a woman who discovers her entire sexuality

756
00:29:32,675 --> 00:29:34,258
like, in a minute,

757
00:29:34,300 --> 00:29:36,174
and what happens…

758
00:29:36,216 --> 00:29:38,591
That lift, it's so…

759
00:29:38,633 --> 00:29:41,216
it's such an incredible metaphor

760
00:29:41,258 --> 00:29:44,258
for doing the thing that you can't do,

761
00:29:44,300 --> 00:29:46,799
and me as an actress,

762
00:29:46,841 --> 00:29:48,133
I can't do that.

763
00:29:48,175 --> 00:29:49,216
I'm too scared.

764
00:29:49,258 --> 00:29:51,341
I'm too fearful of hurting myself,

765
00:29:51,383 --> 00:29:53,425
and he's like, "No, you gotta do it."

766
00:29:58,175 --> 00:30:01,299
When he had a role where he took care of a woman,

767
00:30:01,341 --> 00:30:03,633
and he found himself

768
00:30:03,675 --> 00:30:05,716
through that love of a woman,

769
00:30:05,758 --> 00:30:09,008
it's a universal desire that appeals to women,

770
00:30:09,050 --> 00:30:10,633
and he was so good at it,

771
00:30:10,675 --> 00:30:12,008
and you knew that he would take care of you.

772
00:30:25,383 --> 00:30:26,799
After Dirty Dancing came out,

773
00:30:26,841 --> 00:30:29,133
we got the full extent of what was going on.

774
00:30:29,175 --> 00:30:30,591
They waited for hours

775
00:30:30,633 --> 00:30:31,966
just to catch a glimpse of him,

776
00:30:32,008 --> 00:30:34,591
fanatical fans swayed by Swayze.

777
00:30:34,633 --> 00:30:36,008
What makes this man so special?

778
00:30:36,050 --> 00:30:37,549
His body.

779
00:30:37,591 --> 00:30:38,924
What's his body like?

780
00:30:38,966 --> 00:30:40,216
Hot!

781
00:30:40,258 --> 00:30:41,716
What do you think of how he looks?

782
00:30:41,758 --> 00:30:42,841
He looks pretty good to me.

783
00:30:42,883 --> 00:30:43,799
He looks pretty good, yes.

784
00:30:43,841 --> 00:30:45,008
Dirty Dancing has already grossed

785
00:30:45,050 --> 00:30:47,133
more than $50 million,

786
00:30:47,175 --> 00:30:48,216
and the movie is now being released

787
00:30:48,258 --> 00:30:49,633
on video cassette.

788
00:30:49,675 --> 00:30:51,466
Some people have seen it a hundred times.

789
00:30:51,508 --> 00:30:54,466
25,000 copies of your poster
were sold out immediately.

790
00:30:54,508 --> 00:30:56,091
You couldn't even go see the film, I understand.

791
00:30:56,133 --> 00:30:57,258
No.

792
00:30:57,300 --> 00:30:59,883
I almost don't even know how to sort it all out,

793
00:30:59,925 --> 00:31:01,299
or even maybe don't even want to,

794
00:31:01,341 --> 00:31:02,258
just sort of wanna leave it alone

795
00:31:02,300 --> 00:31:03,424
and just move on with my life,

796
00:31:03,466 --> 00:31:04,758
and keep trying to do good work.

797
00:31:04,800 --> 00:31:06,383
Grind to the left.

798
00:31:06,425 --> 00:31:07,966
Grind to the right.

799
00:31:08,008 --> 00:31:09,299
We're all dirty dancing tonight,

800
00:31:09,341 --> 00:31:10,091
in one lesson.

801
00:31:11,758 --> 00:31:13,466
… Patrick Swayze.

802
00:31:19,841 --> 00:31:21,633
Barbara Walters was going to come out to the ranch,

803
00:31:21,675 --> 00:31:24,299
and he was thrilled to be interviewed by her,

804
00:31:24,341 --> 00:31:25,508
because she was…

805
00:31:25,550 --> 00:31:27,799
You know, she's… she was a wonderful interviewer,

806
00:31:27,841 --> 00:31:30,466
but he said to me,

807
00:31:30,508 --> 00:31:33,299
"What should I expect?"

808
00:31:33,341 --> 00:31:36,966
I said, "Expect her to ask you an off-the-wall question"

809
00:31:37,008 --> 00:31:39,008
that will make you cry,

810
00:31:39,050 --> 00:31:41,424
but she didn't ask it for a really long time,

811
00:31:41,466 --> 00:31:42,883
so he got really comfortable.

812
00:31:42,925 --> 00:31:46,799
Your father died in 1982.

813
00:31:46,841 --> 00:31:48,383
This wasn't just something

814
00:31:48,425 --> 00:31:49,966
that you could accept.

815
00:31:51,508 --> 00:31:53,008
Uh, I… I just…

816
00:31:55,758 --> 00:31:59,008
I-I loved that man.

817
00:31:59,050 --> 00:32:01,508
His love for his father was all over his face

818
00:32:01,550 --> 00:32:02,758
in that moment.

819
00:32:02,800 --> 00:32:06,466
I made it after my father died

820
00:32:06,508 --> 00:32:08,800
my passion…

821
00:32:12,675 --> 00:32:13,966
The…

822
00:32:14,008 --> 00:32:17,466
that I was gonna make that man proud of me till I die.

823
00:32:17,508 --> 00:32:18,841
Everything he wanted for me.

824
00:32:18,883 --> 00:32:20,550
Everything he dreamed about.

825
00:32:20,791 --> 00:32:23,666
The moment Patrick became a star

826
00:32:23,708 --> 00:32:26,708
was when he did the Barbara Walters show.

827
00:32:26,750 --> 00:32:29,041
Not when he did Dirty Dancing.

828
00:32:29,083 --> 00:32:32,124
That's when my phone rang off the hook,

829
00:32:32,166 --> 00:32:35,666
and people all wanted to talk to him, to meet him.

830
00:32:35,708 --> 00:32:38,333
I think people loved him on that show…

831
00:32:38,375 --> 00:32:39,791
On the Barbara Walters show,

832
00:32:39,833 --> 00:32:41,708
because he was a good-looking,

833
00:32:41,750 --> 00:32:44,041
athletic guy

834
00:32:44,083 --> 00:32:45,708
who cried.

835
00:32:45,750 --> 00:32:47,874
There are guys that don't cry…

836
00:32:47,916 --> 00:32:49,624
and they love him.

837
00:32:49,666 --> 00:32:50,958
They love him,

838
00:32:51,000 --> 00:32:52,416
because you know what, there's that…

839
00:32:52,458 --> 00:32:54,666
There's that guy inside all of them.

840
00:32:54,708 --> 00:32:55,958
I always had the dream

841
00:32:56,000 --> 00:32:59,083
that I'd buy a ranch,

842
00:32:59,125 --> 00:33:02,166
and, uh, he'd run it.

843
00:33:02,208 --> 00:33:04,916
You know?

844
00:33:04,958 --> 00:33:06,916
There are times with people

845
00:33:06,958 --> 00:33:09,124
where you just know,

846
00:33:09,166 --> 00:33:10,916
for sure,

847
00:33:10,958 --> 00:33:13,749
that people are going to love them.

848
00:33:13,791 --> 00:33:16,374
Which is what a star is, right?

849
00:33:20,041 --> 00:33:21,916
You know, he'd just come off Dirty Dancing

850
00:33:21,958 --> 00:33:25,041
where he was this romantic guy.

851
00:33:25,083 --> 00:33:27,583
He wanted to flip that on its tail.

852
00:33:32,166 --> 00:33:34,416
Escort this gentleman to the door.

853
00:33:34,458 --> 00:33:35,374
Come on.

854
00:33:35,416 --> 00:33:37,124
Dalton in Road House

855
00:33:37,166 --> 00:33:39,124
was like a dream come true for him.

856
00:33:39,166 --> 00:33:42,041
For a Texas boy, go and kick ass in a movie?

857
00:33:42,083 --> 00:33:43,249
I could only imagine

858
00:33:43,291 --> 00:33:45,083
a bunch of guys sit in an audience,

859
00:33:45,125 --> 00:33:46,124
when they see these things,

860
00:33:46,166 --> 00:33:47,541
going, "I would love to do that."

861
00:33:49,291 --> 00:33:50,499
When Road House happened,

862
00:33:50,541 --> 00:33:51,791
it just kinda…

863
00:33:51,833 --> 00:33:52,749
"Hey, we're gonna do a movie,

864
00:33:52,791 --> 00:33:54,541
and there's gonna be a lot of fighting.

865
00:33:54,583 --> 00:33:55,624
You want to?"

866
00:33:55,666 --> 00:33:56,499
"Oh, yeah."

867
00:33:58,500 --> 00:34:01,291
I'd always been involved, since a young age,

868
00:34:01,333 --> 00:34:03,999
training, fighting, understanding the discipline.

869
00:34:04,041 --> 00:34:05,916
Of course, when I was in the military, I fought.

870
00:34:05,958 --> 00:34:08,874
I was heavyweight kickboxing champ in NATO.

871
00:34:08,916 --> 00:34:10,499
He respected me, he knew what I did.

872
00:34:10,541 --> 00:34:12,249
I knew the man studied martial arts,

873
00:34:12,291 --> 00:34:14,541
but I also knew he was…

874
00:34:14,583 --> 00:34:17,708
and I mean no disrespect here…

875
00:34:17,750 --> 00:34:19,375
he was a ballet dancer.

876
00:34:20,750 --> 00:34:21,916
It was like

877
00:34:21,958 --> 00:34:24,166
this unwritten word that was said.

878
00:34:24,208 --> 00:34:25,749
I don't want to be his friend.

879
00:34:25,791 --> 00:34:27,124
He doesn't want to be my friend.

880
00:34:27,166 --> 00:34:29,249
It was a feeling,

881
00:34:29,291 --> 00:34:30,333
if anything.

882
00:34:30,375 --> 00:34:32,874
It's just something I felt coming off of him.

883
00:34:32,916 --> 00:34:34,333
I felt this,

884
00:34:34,375 --> 00:34:35,458
and it was interesting,

885
00:34:35,500 --> 00:34:37,124
and the first night of communication

886
00:34:37,166 --> 00:34:39,833
was the first night of the fight.

887
00:34:39,875 --> 00:34:41,624
Until then, not one word had been said.

888
00:34:41,666 --> 00:34:43,833
They hollered, "Action!"

889
00:34:43,875 --> 00:34:46,249
and he throws a kick, and he just barely touched me.

890
00:34:46,291 --> 00:34:49,083
When he got back, got in his stance, I…

891
00:34:49,125 --> 00:34:51,124
I just dusted off my shirt.

892
00:34:51,166 --> 00:34:52,958
I said, "If that's the best kick you've got,

893
00:34:53,000 --> 00:34:54,249
this is gonna be a lousy fight."

894
00:34:54,291 --> 00:34:55,791
"Action!"

895
00:34:55,833 --> 00:34:59,249
He hit me like a freight train.

896
00:34:59,291 --> 00:35:01,999
I went off my feet,

897
00:35:02,041 --> 00:35:03,333
my butt hit… skipped on the ground,

898
00:35:03,375 --> 00:35:04,749
went about 10 to 12 feet,

899
00:35:04,791 --> 00:35:06,291
just like bump, bump!

900
00:35:06,333 --> 00:35:08,624
I said, "Now, that's a kick."

901
00:35:08,666 --> 00:35:12,374
He said, "You like this, don't you?"

902
00:35:12,416 --> 00:35:16,124
and I says, "No… I love this."

903
00:35:16,166 --> 00:35:17,874
He said, "Good."

904
00:35:17,916 --> 00:35:19,791
He said, "What do you say

905
00:35:19,833 --> 00:35:23,083
we don't cheat the audience for one time?"

906
00:35:26,208 --> 00:35:29,124
From that point on, we just went at it.

907
00:35:29,166 --> 00:35:31,458
That thing about him being a ballet dancer

908
00:35:31,500 --> 00:35:33,333
that I mentioned earlier

909
00:35:33,375 --> 00:35:34,666
went right out the window.

910
00:35:34,708 --> 00:35:36,416
Prepare to die.

911
00:35:36,458 --> 00:35:38,500
You are such an…

912
00:35:40,125 --> 00:35:41,749
He did this spinning kick.

913
00:35:41,791 --> 00:35:42,749
It caught me square,

914
00:35:42,791 --> 00:35:45,958
and it kinda cracked my eye socket open,

915
00:35:46,000 --> 00:35:47,208
so you see blood on my eye right here,

916
00:35:47,250 --> 00:35:50,083
and it's real.

917
00:35:50,125 --> 00:35:51,458
He said, "Oh, man, I didn't mean to do that,

918
00:35:51,500 --> 00:35:52,874
I just… the foot got a little high."

919
00:35:52,916 --> 00:35:53,916
"Okay, fine."

920
00:35:53,958 --> 00:35:55,874
When he grabbed me by the hair,

921
00:35:55,916 --> 00:35:57,083
I picked up the log,

922
00:35:57,125 --> 00:35:58,999
I busted it right across his ribs.

923
00:35:59,041 --> 00:36:00,749
It's not in the script.

924
00:36:00,791 --> 00:36:02,708
It was a log that was laying on the ground there.

925
00:36:02,750 --> 00:36:04,499
You can hear it, because he goes…

926
00:36:05,666 --> 00:36:07,041
Like this,

927
00:36:07,083 --> 00:36:09,624
and, of course, I didn't know he'd cracked two of his ribs,

928
00:36:09,666 --> 00:36:11,041
but he didn't stop.

929
00:36:11,083 --> 00:36:12,958
He did not stop, you know?

930
00:36:13,000 --> 00:36:14,541
We got up and continued the scene.

931
00:36:14,583 --> 00:36:16,416
Then when they cut, he comes over…

932
00:36:16,458 --> 00:36:18,166
You know, just typical Buddy…

933
00:36:18,208 --> 00:36:19,083
He reaches over…

934
00:36:19,125 --> 00:36:20,083
reaches up,

935
00:36:20,125 --> 00:36:21,416
grabs me around the neck with both hands,

936
00:36:21,458 --> 00:36:24,541
puts his forehead next to mine, and said, "Are we even?"

937
00:36:24,583 --> 00:36:26,249
I said, "We're even, man."

938
00:36:26,291 --> 00:36:28,124
He said, "Good, just wanna make sure."

939
00:36:28,166 --> 00:36:29,249
He just rolled his head.

940
00:36:29,291 --> 00:36:31,249
He said, "You got one more?"

941
00:36:31,291 --> 00:36:33,041
and I did exactly the same thing.

942
00:36:33,083 --> 00:36:35,416
I just leaned in and said, "Yeah, I got one more."

943
00:36:35,458 --> 00:36:37,458
Kissed me right on the neck.

944
00:36:37,500 --> 00:36:39,166
He said, "Let's go get 'em, brother."

945
00:36:39,208 --> 00:36:40,999
We did one more.

946
00:36:41,041 --> 00:36:43,791
It didn't matter how black and blue we were

947
00:36:43,833 --> 00:36:45,499
or how tired we were.

948
00:36:45,541 --> 00:36:47,249
I looked at this man, I said, "I love you, man."

949
00:36:47,291 --> 00:36:48,208
He said, "I love you too."

950
00:36:48,250 --> 00:36:50,749
I fell in love with a guy

951
00:36:50,791 --> 00:36:52,916
that wasn't afraid that he could take it.

952
00:36:52,958 --> 00:36:54,333
I fell in love with a guy

953
00:36:54,375 --> 00:36:57,166
that had such passion for what he wanted to do

954
00:36:57,208 --> 00:36:58,666
that it meant that much,

955
00:36:58,708 --> 00:37:02,666
which allowed me to have it mean that much to me.

956
00:37:02,708 --> 00:37:04,541
I'm gonna kill you the old-fashioned way.

957
00:37:06,875 --> 00:37:08,416
When you try to describe Road House,

958
00:37:08,458 --> 00:37:09,541
it doesn't make any sense at all.

959
00:37:09,583 --> 00:37:11,833
It sounds like you just threw a bunch of stuff

960
00:37:11,875 --> 00:37:13,749
into a Cuisinart,

961
00:37:13,791 --> 00:37:14,666
and then just turned it on,

962
00:37:14,708 --> 00:37:15,916
and then whatever…

963
00:37:15,958 --> 00:37:17,541
You know, whatever happens, happens,

964
00:37:17,583 --> 00:37:18,708
and that's what the movie is,

965
00:37:18,750 --> 00:37:20,166
something for everyone.

966
00:37:20,208 --> 00:37:21,624
-Hi.
-Hi.

967
00:37:21,666 --> 00:37:23,249
It wasn't like we didn't know we were making

968
00:37:23,291 --> 00:37:24,666
this drive-in movie,

969
00:37:24,708 --> 00:37:25,583
or as some people say,

970
00:37:25,625 --> 00:37:27,291
"The best worst movie of all time,"

971
00:37:27,333 --> 00:37:28,541
or whatever it was.

972
00:37:28,583 --> 00:37:30,416
We all were in on the joke,

973
00:37:30,458 --> 00:37:31,374
but…

974
00:37:31,416 --> 00:37:34,083
but Patrick never winked at it, ever.

975
00:37:34,125 --> 00:37:35,666
Do you enjoy pain?

976
00:37:35,708 --> 00:37:38,583
Pain don't hurt.

977
00:37:38,625 --> 00:37:39,833
I took my cue from him,

978
00:37:39,875 --> 00:37:42,374
because I thought, yeah, if I am too cool for school,

979
00:37:42,416 --> 00:37:43,624
and I'm, like, kinda…

980
00:37:43,666 --> 00:37:46,249
you know, laughing at this whole thing,

981
00:37:46,291 --> 00:37:47,958
it's never going to work,

982
00:37:48,000 --> 00:37:48,999
and it's never going to be that thing

983
00:37:49,041 --> 00:37:49,999
that people will love.

984
00:37:50,041 --> 00:37:52,208
Do you ever win a fight?

985
00:37:52,250 --> 00:37:54,791
Nobody ever wins a fight.

986
00:37:54,833 --> 00:37:57,583
Doc and Dalton, it just worked.

987
00:37:57,625 --> 00:37:58,791
I don't know, it was one of those things

988
00:37:58,833 --> 00:38:01,083
where alchemy is part of it too.

989
00:38:01,125 --> 00:38:02,083
It's just two actors

990
00:38:02,125 --> 00:38:06,541
who had some chemistry together as well,

991
00:38:06,583 --> 00:38:08,458
but I think even if we hadn't,

992
00:38:08,500 --> 00:38:11,416
Patrick would've found some way to connect with me

993
00:38:11,458 --> 00:38:12,374
as an actor,

994
00:38:12,416 --> 00:38:13,624
and as a person that was…

995
00:38:13,666 --> 00:38:14,874
He charmed everyone.

996
00:38:14,916 --> 00:38:16,541
He'd find a way in,

997
00:38:16,583 --> 00:38:18,416
and make you just fall in love with him.

998
00:38:18,458 --> 00:38:20,750
I oughta stop tellin' you what to do.

999
00:38:21,875 --> 00:38:24,166
Maybe I oughta kick your ass.

1000
00:38:25,500 --> 00:38:26,499
Road House was such a…

1001
00:38:26,541 --> 00:38:30,999
Kind of a… show in some ways, you know?

1002
00:38:31,041 --> 00:38:33,416
In a most positive sense,

1003
00:38:33,458 --> 00:38:35,083
but there's a clear line there

1004
00:38:35,125 --> 00:38:36,916
where you're going to get at the truth,

1005
00:38:36,958 --> 00:38:38,499
and you're going to commit to it,

1006
00:38:38,541 --> 00:38:40,124
and that's what Patrick did,

1007
00:38:40,166 --> 00:38:41,583
he committed to it,

1008
00:38:41,625 --> 00:38:43,041
he committed to the truth of it,

1009
00:38:43,083 --> 00:38:44,749
to the truth of that character.

1010
00:38:44,791 --> 00:38:46,541
That draws the audience in.

1011
00:38:46,583 --> 00:38:48,124
That makes the audience part of it.

1012
00:38:48,166 --> 00:38:50,583
That makes the audience buy into it.

1013
00:38:50,625 --> 00:38:53,666
You can leave any time you want to.

1014
00:38:53,708 --> 00:38:56,041
Oh… kid.

1015
00:38:56,083 --> 00:38:57,416
I got very close to Patrick

1016
00:38:57,458 --> 00:38:59,208
during the production of that thing.

1017
00:38:59,250 --> 00:39:02,083
I think there was a brother relationship there,

1018
00:39:02,125 --> 00:39:03,333
and I think there might even have been

1019
00:39:03,375 --> 00:39:05,791
a father-son relationship there,

1020
00:39:05,833 --> 00:39:09,916
and I felt that with Patrick,

1021
00:39:09,958 --> 00:39:12,833
off-camera as well as on-camera.

1022
00:39:12,875 --> 00:39:15,874
I love you, mijo.

1023
00:39:15,916 --> 00:39:17,583
We told each other we loved each other

1024
00:39:17,625 --> 00:39:18,999
more than once, you know,

1025
00:39:19,041 --> 00:39:21,124
which is kind of a common phrase, I guess,

1026
00:39:21,166 --> 00:39:22,166
these days,

1027
00:39:22,208 --> 00:39:23,958
but I think when you mean it, you mean it,

1028
00:39:24,000 --> 00:39:25,666
and when you know it, you know it.

1029
00:39:33,975 --> 00:39:36,933
It was so hard to get Patrick to read scripts.

1030
00:39:36,975 --> 00:39:38,974
I've always wondered about that, why…

1031
00:39:39,016 --> 00:39:40,599
why he wouldn't read,

1032
00:39:40,641 --> 00:39:42,683
and sometimes I think when you have success,

1033
00:39:42,725 --> 00:39:44,516
you don't want to make a mistake.

1034
00:39:44,558 --> 00:39:45,433
When Ghost came in,

1035
00:39:45,475 --> 00:39:46,599
I said to him, "You have to read it.

1036
00:39:46,641 --> 00:39:47,391
You have to…"

1037
00:39:47,433 --> 00:39:48,308
and he said, "What's it about?"

1038
00:39:48,350 --> 00:39:49,141
I said, "I'm not going to tell you."

1039
00:39:49,183 --> 00:39:51,558
Finally, after about two months,

1040
00:39:51,600 --> 00:39:54,099
he sat down, he didn't get up.

1041
00:39:54,141 --> 00:39:55,683
I was sitting in the bedroom,

1042
00:39:55,725 --> 00:39:57,641
and he walked in, and he had tears in his eyes,

1043
00:39:57,683 --> 00:39:58,891
and he says, "I have to do this movie."

1044
00:39:58,933 --> 00:40:00,474
So he was pitched

1045
00:40:00,516 --> 00:40:02,766
to the director and the producers,

1046
00:40:02,808 --> 00:40:06,099
and they're like "Uh…"

1047
00:40:06,141 --> 00:40:10,558
so they talked them into doing a screening

1048
00:40:10,600 --> 00:40:12,058
of Road House.

1049
00:40:12,100 --> 00:40:15,224
Movie finishes, Jerry Zucker stands up…

1050
00:40:15,266 --> 00:40:16,141
The director…

1051
00:40:16,183 --> 00:40:18,266
And announces to everyone,

1052
00:40:18,308 --> 00:40:19,599
"No way on God's green Earth

1053
00:40:19,641 --> 00:40:22,099
will Patrick Swayze ever do this movie."

1054
00:40:22,141 --> 00:40:24,641
I must have made 50 calls

1055
00:40:24,683 --> 00:40:27,058
so that they would at least meet him for Ghost.

1056
00:40:28,558 --> 00:40:31,724
Patrick was frustrated sometimes,

1057
00:40:31,766 --> 00:40:34,849
because people did not take him seriously,

1058
00:40:34,891 --> 00:40:37,891
which was what he wanted more than anything.

1059
00:40:37,933 --> 00:40:39,891
Patrick manages to get a reading.

1060
00:40:39,933 --> 00:40:41,808
They read practically the whole script.

1061
00:40:41,850 --> 00:40:43,724
They got to the final scene,

1062
00:40:43,766 --> 00:40:45,599
everybody in the office is crying.

1063
00:40:45,641 --> 00:40:47,058
He has tears…

1064
00:40:47,100 --> 00:40:50,224
The casting director reading with him is crying.

1065
00:40:50,266 --> 00:40:52,599
You know, and he just got 'em.

1066
00:40:52,641 --> 00:40:53,808
He just got 'em,

1067
00:40:53,850 --> 00:40:55,849
and that was it, he got the part.

1068
00:40:55,891 --> 00:40:58,808
Pretty much every part that he really wanted,

1069
00:40:58,850 --> 00:41:00,308
he had to really fight for.

1070
00:41:00,350 --> 00:41:03,641
Whenever anything good in my life happens,

1071
00:41:03,683 --> 00:41:05,391
I'm just afraid I'm gonna lose it.

1072
00:41:05,433 --> 00:41:08,433
I love you.

1073
00:41:08,475 --> 00:41:11,766
I really love you.

1074
00:41:11,808 --> 00:41:14,558
Ditto.

1075
00:41:14,600 --> 00:41:15,474
When I think of Patrick,

1076
00:41:15,516 --> 00:41:17,391
I think of gentility.

1077
00:41:17,433 --> 00:41:20,016
He was just this kind of very sweet,

1078
00:41:20,058 --> 00:41:22,808
kind of like a regular guy,

1079
00:41:22,850 --> 00:41:24,141
and I'm, like, "You know",

1080
00:41:24,183 --> 00:41:25,641
people, they're going kind of crazy.

1081
00:41:25,683 --> 00:41:26,683
I'm not, like, exactly…

1082
00:41:26,725 --> 00:41:28,974
Like, what is, like, that "whoo…"

1083
00:41:29,016 --> 00:41:30,766
and then we had a scene where he took his shirt off…

1084
00:41:31,933 --> 00:41:34,891
and I was like, "Oh, okay, got it.

1085
00:41:34,933 --> 00:41:35,891
Got the…"

1086
00:41:35,933 --> 00:41:38,391
Like, "I'm connecting all the dots now."

1087
00:41:42,266 --> 00:41:43,516
This kind of quiet,

1088
00:41:43,558 --> 00:41:47,016
almost very, you know, mild-mannered person,

1089
00:41:47,058 --> 00:41:48,474
like, it's the contradiction

1090
00:41:48,516 --> 00:41:52,308
of this extremely dynamic,

1091
00:41:52,350 --> 00:41:54,849
physical person.

1092
00:41:54,891 --> 00:41:57,724
You know, it was a really interesting part

1093
00:41:57,766 --> 00:42:00,516
of, I think, who… who he is.

1094
00:42:00,558 --> 00:42:03,141
I do remember a great need

1095
00:42:03,183 --> 00:42:05,474
to work extremely hard

1096
00:42:05,516 --> 00:42:08,183
to counter the perception

1097
00:42:08,225 --> 00:42:09,474
of him being, you know,

1098
00:42:09,516 --> 00:42:11,724
like, a hunky guy,

1099
00:42:11,766 --> 00:42:14,849
or… you know, just to his physicality.

1100
00:42:14,891 --> 00:42:16,141
It's almost like he…

1101
00:42:16,183 --> 00:42:18,183
A feeling that to be taken seriously,

1102
00:42:18,225 --> 00:42:21,433
that he really needed to work harder.

1103
00:42:21,475 --> 00:42:24,974
It was kind of just getting in there hands on, and…

1104
00:42:25,016 --> 00:42:28,391
Obviously, in one of our most well-known scenes,

1105
00:42:28,433 --> 00:42:30,766
it was for real, literally hands on.

1106
00:42:39,475 --> 00:42:42,308
What are you doing?

1107
00:42:42,350 --> 00:42:44,349
I couldn't sleep.

1108
00:42:44,391 --> 00:42:46,099
With the pottery scene,

1109
00:42:46,141 --> 00:42:48,016
I think that there's, you know,

1110
00:42:48,058 --> 00:42:52,224
something within his dance background

1111
00:42:52,266 --> 00:42:57,391
that I think also gave him a particular perception

1112
00:42:57,433 --> 00:42:59,808
in how to approach that,

1113
00:42:59,850 --> 00:43:03,808
that it had a sense of a dance, in a way, to it.

1114
00:43:06,891 --> 00:43:08,683
Oh, no…

1115
00:43:08,725 --> 00:43:10,349
I hope it wasn't a masterpiece.

1116
00:43:10,391 --> 00:43:13,141
The movement of it was, uh,

1117
00:43:13,183 --> 00:43:15,224
so erotic and beautiful,

1118
00:43:15,266 --> 00:43:19,141
and probably more than they imagined

1119
00:43:19,183 --> 00:43:21,183
even with what was written on the page.

1120
00:43:22,350 --> 00:43:25,308
I can definitely say that, you know,

1121
00:43:25,350 --> 00:43:27,391
his appreciation

1122
00:43:27,433 --> 00:43:28,933
and his openness

1123
00:43:28,975 --> 00:43:33,850
was wonderful attributes to have in a partner.

1124
00:43:35,308 --> 00:43:37,183
This story, in particular,

1125
00:43:37,225 --> 00:43:40,099
really required a depth of vulnerability,

1126
00:43:40,141 --> 00:43:42,849
I know certainly for me,

1127
00:43:42,891 --> 00:43:46,349
and I think for Patrick,

1128
00:43:46,391 --> 00:43:48,724
that without that being believable,

1129
00:43:48,766 --> 00:43:52,183
I don't know if the movie would have worked.

1130
00:43:52,225 --> 00:43:54,433
I think Ghost is his best movie.

1131
00:43:54,475 --> 00:43:55,683
I think it's his best movie.

1132
00:43:55,725 --> 00:43:56,849
Patrick was able to use

1133
00:43:56,891 --> 00:43:58,641
what was really special to him…

1134
00:43:58,683 --> 00:44:00,516
maybe other than Dirty Dancing,

1135
00:44:00,558 --> 00:44:01,558
which is another one

1136
00:44:01,600 --> 00:44:02,474
which I can't imagine anybody else doing.

1137
00:44:02,516 --> 00:44:06,266
Seeing that sort of, like, rough guy

1138
00:44:06,308 --> 00:44:07,391
give that big…

1139
00:44:07,433 --> 00:44:09,058
Dude, that speech he gives to her at the end,

1140
00:44:09,100 --> 00:44:10,641
are you kidding me?

1141
00:44:10,683 --> 00:44:12,183
You kidding me?

1142
00:44:12,225 --> 00:44:15,141
That's one of those things
that you can pull up on YouTube,

1143
00:44:15,183 --> 00:44:17,683
having never even seen the movie,

1144
00:44:17,725 --> 00:44:19,641
and pull that up and watch that,

1145
00:44:19,683 --> 00:44:20,599
and it's just…

1146
00:44:21,766 --> 00:44:25,766
I love you, Molly.

1147
00:44:25,808 --> 00:44:28,183
I've always loved you.

1148
00:44:34,766 --> 00:44:37,475
Ditto.

1149
00:44:40,266 --> 00:44:41,849
He had something about him

1150
00:44:41,891 --> 00:44:44,266
that was very… rugged,

1151
00:44:44,308 --> 00:44:47,516
somebody who is not afraid to get their hands dirty,

1152
00:44:47,558 --> 00:44:51,224
but that also had that beautiful, gentle,

1153
00:44:51,266 --> 00:44:54,391
you know, sensuous ability to move

1154
00:44:54,433 --> 00:44:55,225
and to touch.

1155
00:44:57,933 --> 00:45:00,599
To have the ability to be a true man's man,

1156
00:45:00,641 --> 00:45:04,224
and also have that appeal to women,

1157
00:45:04,266 --> 00:45:05,849
is kind of rare.

1158
00:45:05,891 --> 00:45:10,099
When someone walks in a
room, and everybody looks at you,

1159
00:45:10,141 --> 00:45:11,933
people think you're handsome,

1160
00:45:11,975 --> 00:45:14,891
you kind of know you have something going for you,

1161
00:45:14,933 --> 00:45:17,349
but did he think he was going to be

1162
00:45:17,391 --> 00:45:19,308
the Sexiest Man in the World

1163
00:45:19,350 --> 00:45:20,766
on the cover of People magazine?

1164
00:45:20,808 --> 00:45:22,099
No.

1165
00:45:22,141 --> 00:45:23,016
I don't think he did.

1166
00:45:26,933 --> 00:45:29,391
Patrick is so misunderstood

1167
00:45:29,433 --> 00:45:32,266
in the fact that people say he's this sexy guy.

1168
00:45:32,308 --> 00:45:36,141
Patrick is one great big, huge heart.

1169
00:45:36,183 --> 00:45:38,391
That's what Patrick Swayze is.

1170
00:45:38,433 --> 00:45:40,516
It's funny, because when you're with a person,

1171
00:45:40,558 --> 00:45:43,308
you don't think about them as being attractive.

1172
00:45:43,350 --> 00:45:44,266
It kinda goes away,

1173
00:45:44,308 --> 00:45:45,891
because you're just seeing the person.

1174
00:45:45,933 --> 00:45:46,808
Every once in a while,

1175
00:45:46,850 --> 00:45:48,766
I'd look over, and I'd go,

1176
00:45:48,808 --> 00:45:50,891
"Oh, he's really good-looking."

1177
00:45:50,933 --> 00:45:54,099
He had such a unique combination.

1178
00:45:54,141 --> 00:45:55,891
First of all, he had a great mullet.

1179
00:46:09,558 --> 00:46:11,683
He loved his hair.

1180
00:46:11,725 --> 00:46:14,433
As you may know, he loved his hair.

1181
00:46:14,475 --> 00:46:15,558
Getting out of the house,

1182
00:46:15,600 --> 00:46:18,016
he took more time getting ready than me, okay?

1183
00:46:18,058 --> 00:46:20,349
That's… that's saying something.

1184
00:46:20,391 --> 00:46:22,183
His jeans had to be just right.

1185
00:46:22,225 --> 00:46:24,599
On movies, he'd have a new pair of jeans,

1186
00:46:24,641 --> 00:46:26,183
and the waist had to be perfect,

1187
00:46:26,225 --> 00:46:28,308
and they altered his jeans for him.

1188
00:46:28,350 --> 00:46:30,099
There's some advantages

1189
00:46:30,141 --> 00:46:32,974
to being so good-looking, for sure, so…

1190
00:46:33,016 --> 00:46:35,599
and he wasn't complaining about that.

1191
00:46:35,641 --> 00:46:36,683
Mr. Photography.

1192
00:46:41,141 --> 00:46:43,433
In retrospect, I look back,

1193
00:46:43,475 --> 00:46:45,808
and he took a lot of time.

1194
00:46:45,850 --> 00:46:48,474
He… he was a full-time job.

1195
00:46:48,516 --> 00:46:49,891
He needed a lot.

1196
00:46:57,500 --> 00:46:59,583
You wanna talk about a movie star?

1197
00:46:59,625 --> 00:47:02,291
So, this is my sister, Lisa,

1198
00:47:02,333 --> 00:47:03,916
and this is Patrick,

1199
00:47:03,958 --> 00:47:06,499
and we were taking photos this day, right?

1200
00:47:06,541 --> 00:47:07,833
The photographer sends her the picture,

1201
00:47:07,875 --> 00:47:08,916
so she frames it

1202
00:47:08,958 --> 00:47:11,249
and puts it on her desk at work…

1203
00:47:12,708 --> 00:47:15,333
and people go, "That's so cool

1204
00:47:15,375 --> 00:47:17,249
that when you went to visit your sister in Hollywood

1205
00:47:17,291 --> 00:47:18,749
that you got to take a picture

1206
00:47:18,791 --> 00:47:20,999
with a cut-out of Patrick Swayze,"

1207
00:47:21,041 --> 00:47:24,333
'cause he's so beautiful and perfect, right?

1208
00:47:24,375 --> 00:47:26,083
Like, that's how he looked.

1209
00:47:27,708 --> 00:47:28,541
Hey! -

1210
00:47:29,916 --> 00:47:31,374
Put me down.

1211
00:47:31,416 --> 00:47:33,416
Uh, we know each other.

1212
00:47:33,458 --> 00:47:35,458
Bodhi was a tough one,

1213
00:47:35,500 --> 00:47:39,458
because he'd not played a villain before.

1214
00:47:39,500 --> 00:47:43,374
And he wasn't sure how that would go with his fans.

1215
00:47:43,416 --> 00:47:45,166
Who's the guy? You replacing me?

1216
00:47:45,208 --> 00:47:49,958
Bodhi and Patrick both led with their heart,

1217
00:47:50,000 --> 00:47:51,916
with what they want the world to be,

1218
00:47:51,958 --> 00:47:53,416
not what the world is,

1219
00:47:53,458 --> 00:47:54,624
but what they want it to be.

1220
00:47:54,666 --> 00:47:56,416
This was never about money for us.

1221
00:47:56,458 --> 00:47:58,416
It was about us against the system,

1222
00:47:58,458 --> 00:48:01,499
that system that kills the human spirit.

1223
00:48:01,541 --> 00:48:03,499
We stand for something.

1224
00:48:03,541 --> 00:48:05,916
To those dead souls inching along the freeways

1225
00:48:05,958 --> 00:48:07,166
in their metal coffins,

1226
00:48:07,208 --> 00:48:08,666
we show them

1227
00:48:08,708 --> 00:48:11,166
that the human spirit is still alive.

1228
00:48:11,208 --> 00:48:13,124
You get to a point in your life, you realize,

1229
00:48:13,166 --> 00:48:14,791
"I create the world.

1230
00:48:14,833 --> 00:48:16,083
I create it.

1231
00:48:16,125 --> 00:48:18,958
So it is what I want it to be."

1232
00:48:23,041 --> 00:48:24,499
Have you skydived before this?

1233
00:48:24,541 --> 00:48:25,749
No.

1234
00:48:25,791 --> 00:48:28,333
My little brother's on a four-man competition team,

1235
00:48:28,375 --> 00:48:30,083
and he's been trying to get me to do it for a while,

1236
00:48:30,125 --> 00:48:33,458
and I hadn't had a chance, so the movie came up,

1237
00:48:33,500 --> 00:48:35,833
and gave me an excuse to start jumping out of perfect…

1238
00:48:35,875 --> 00:48:38,124
Perfectly good airplanes.

1239
00:48:38,166 --> 00:48:41,041
I had over a thousand skydives
when he booked Point Break,

1240
00:48:41,083 --> 00:48:44,624
and we were doing practice jumps.

1241
00:48:44,666 --> 00:48:46,708
He just loved it.

1242
00:48:46,750 --> 00:48:48,833
He went every morning before work.

1243
00:48:48,875 --> 00:48:49,833
Every single morning.

1244
00:48:49,875 --> 00:48:50,833
Can you imagine?

1245
00:48:50,875 --> 00:48:52,333
You have to get up at 4:00 in the morning

1246
00:48:52,375 --> 00:48:53,833
to go do that.

1247
00:48:53,875 --> 00:48:56,416
I knew that the studios would have a stroke

1248
00:48:56,458 --> 00:48:58,624
if they actually knew what he was doing.

1249
00:48:58,666 --> 00:49:00,208
That made me nervous.

1250
00:49:05,375 --> 00:49:08,333
The studio head sent him a letter…

1251
00:49:08,375 --> 00:49:09,999
"Cease and Desist."

1252
00:49:10,041 --> 00:49:11,791
The lawyers had stopped him from skydiving.

1253
00:49:13,375 --> 00:49:14,958
I was the one that had to deal with it,

1254
00:49:15,000 --> 00:49:18,416
but you know, the less I knew, the better off I was.

1255
00:49:18,458 --> 00:49:21,458
He was just so taken with something being real,

1256
00:49:21,500 --> 00:49:22,999
and authentic,

1257
00:49:23,041 --> 00:49:25,583
that he put himself in precarious situations.

1258
00:49:26,750 --> 00:49:28,666
My brother had them promise

1259
00:49:28,708 --> 00:49:30,541
that at the end of principal photography,

1260
00:49:30,583 --> 00:49:32,916
when he's done with his obligations,

1261
00:49:32,958 --> 00:49:34,208
dialogue, so forth,

1262
00:49:34,250 --> 00:49:37,166
"I wanna go back, get the King Air,"

1263
00:49:37,208 --> 00:49:38,999
and he went back

1264
00:49:39,041 --> 00:49:40,166
and duplicated all the scenes

1265
00:49:40,208 --> 00:49:43,083
that Jake Lombard had shot

1266
00:49:43,125 --> 00:49:44,999
and replaced them with the actor,

1267
00:49:45,041 --> 00:49:46,208
and that's never done.

1268
00:49:46,250 --> 00:49:50,583
You never replace stunt scenes filmed, in the can.

1269
00:49:50,625 --> 00:49:52,583
"Let's come back and reshoot 'em with the actor."

1270
00:49:52,625 --> 00:49:54,208
"Oh, my god, this is better."

1271
00:49:54,250 --> 00:49:56,083
That's him coming out of a plane,

1272
00:49:56,125 --> 00:49:57,333
and it's in the movie.

1273
00:49:57,375 --> 00:49:59,208
Why? Because it mattered.

1274
00:49:59,250 --> 00:50:00,624
Other people will sit there and say,

1275
00:50:00,666 --> 00:50:03,041
"I got a guy who did it, he did a beautiful job."

1276
00:50:03,083 --> 00:50:04,583
That's not good enough.

1277
00:50:04,625 --> 00:50:05,916
Would everybody do that?

1278
00:50:05,958 --> 00:50:07,999
Not a chance in hell.

1279
00:50:08,041 --> 00:50:10,166
Adios, amigo!

1280
00:50:14,375 --> 00:50:18,624
Before Tom Cruise was jumping out of his… HALO jumps,

1281
00:50:18,666 --> 00:50:20,958
Patrick was doing it in Point Break,

1282
00:50:21,000 --> 00:50:22,999
and for my money, it's a better shot,

1283
00:50:23,041 --> 00:50:24,874
and if you don't think Tom hasn't remembered

1284
00:50:24,916 --> 00:50:26,458
all these years

1285
00:50:26,500 --> 00:50:28,083
that Patrick did it,

1286
00:50:28,125 --> 00:50:29,999
then you are mistaken,

1287
00:50:30,041 --> 00:50:31,958
and you do not know who you're dealing with,

1288
00:50:32,000 --> 00:50:33,875
from one Outsider to another.

1289
00:50:34,116 --> 00:50:34,949
I would say

1290
00:50:34,991 --> 00:50:35,824
Patrick was probably one of

1291
00:50:35,866 --> 00:50:37,949
the top… top guys

1292
00:50:37,991 --> 00:50:39,741
that all the stuntmen knew

1293
00:50:39,783 --> 00:50:41,449
that he could do anything,

1294
00:50:41,491 --> 00:50:43,033
that he was an athlete

1295
00:50:43,075 --> 00:50:46,991
that was capable of doing
whatever they wanted him to do,

1296
00:50:47,033 --> 00:50:49,574
and, for him, it wasn't about ego.

1297
00:50:49,616 --> 00:50:51,783
He liked doing it.

1298
00:50:51,825 --> 00:50:53,741
When you do the kind of stuff

1299
00:50:53,783 --> 00:50:54,908
he did in films,

1300
00:50:54,950 --> 00:50:56,283
you pay the price.

1301
00:50:56,325 --> 00:50:58,158
You pay a price for it.

1302
00:50:58,200 --> 00:50:59,616
He was willing to pay the price

1303
00:50:59,658 --> 00:51:01,283
to do what he could do.

1304
00:51:01,325 --> 00:51:02,366
I often wondered

1305
00:51:02,408 --> 00:51:05,033
how he could put himself through what he did.

1306
00:51:05,075 --> 00:51:08,199
He had to be in a lot of physical pain.

1307
00:51:08,241 --> 00:51:11,116
Even back when we were doing Road House,

1308
00:51:11,158 --> 00:51:15,116
he was already living with extreme pain.

1309
00:51:15,158 --> 00:51:18,949
Because of his propensity for doing his own stunts,

1310
00:51:18,991 --> 00:51:20,533
we used to roll into town,

1311
00:51:20,575 --> 00:51:22,699
and I would always make sure
that I had the telephone number

1312
00:51:22,741 --> 00:51:24,866
of the best orthopedic specialist in the town

1313
00:51:24,908 --> 00:51:25,699
wherever we went.

1314
00:51:25,741 --> 00:51:27,283
He would never be denied,

1315
00:51:27,325 --> 00:51:29,408
and he would do it,

1316
00:51:29,450 --> 00:51:31,449
no matter what the stakes.

1317
00:51:31,491 --> 00:51:33,408
You know, whether he had shoes on, or a shirt,

1318
00:51:33,450 --> 00:51:34,283
or whatever,

1319
00:51:34,325 --> 00:51:35,533
he was going to do it.

1320
00:51:35,575 --> 00:51:37,283
That was part of the code,

1321
00:51:37,325 --> 00:51:38,658
that was part of being a man,

1322
00:51:38,700 --> 00:51:40,824
that was part of doing your job.

1323
00:51:40,866 --> 00:51:42,991
He would've made a great stuntman…

1324
00:51:43,033 --> 00:51:44,741
with a cut in pay.

1325
00:51:47,033 --> 00:51:47,991
I revaluated my career

1326
00:51:48,033 --> 00:51:50,241
out of… out of internal need

1327
00:51:50,283 --> 00:51:51,449
as opposed to career need,

1328
00:51:51,491 --> 00:51:52,908
because, like, you're right,

1329
00:51:52,950 --> 00:51:55,449
after Ghost, I had tons and tons of offers coming in,

1330
00:51:55,491 --> 00:51:57,283
and all different kinds of films,

1331
00:51:57,325 --> 00:52:00,574
but I was having a very difficult time

1332
00:52:00,616 --> 00:52:03,158
finding anything that matched up

1333
00:52:03,200 --> 00:52:05,616
with what my insides were telling me to do.

1334
00:52:08,866 --> 00:52:10,616
When Patrick got City of Joy,

1335
00:52:10,658 --> 00:52:12,491
he was really happy,

1336
00:52:12,533 --> 00:52:15,158
because it had a prestigious director,

1337
00:52:15,200 --> 00:52:16,741
Roland Joffé.

1338
00:52:16,783 --> 00:52:18,866
It wasn't based on his look,

1339
00:52:18,908 --> 00:52:20,741
it was based on acting.

1340
00:52:20,783 --> 00:52:22,699
That was a really big deal,

1341
00:52:22,741 --> 00:52:25,366
to get that instead of another action movie.

1342
00:52:25,408 --> 00:52:27,449
I'm just very excited that I got…

1343
00:52:27,491 --> 00:52:30,366
I got the chance to get to this place

1344
00:52:30,408 --> 00:52:31,491
and get to this level of movie.

1345
00:52:31,533 --> 00:52:32,366
It's sort of like

1346
00:52:32,408 --> 00:52:34,408
"life after sex symbol," you know?

1347
00:52:34,450 --> 00:52:35,783
I first met Patrick,

1348
00:52:35,825 --> 00:52:37,366
he came to my office at the time.

1349
00:52:37,408 --> 00:52:39,658
The staff was in a pitch of excitement,

1350
00:52:39,700 --> 00:52:41,366
particularly the female staff.

1351
00:52:41,408 --> 00:52:42,574
What walked through the door

1352
00:52:42,616 --> 00:52:44,366
was this immensely likable

1353
00:52:44,408 --> 00:52:45,616
sort of…

1354
00:52:45,658 --> 00:52:47,033
well, sort of surf bum, really,

1355
00:52:47,075 --> 00:52:51,199
but with an extraordinarily open kind of curiosity.

1356
00:52:51,241 --> 00:52:52,199
I mean, very quickly,

1357
00:52:52,241 --> 00:52:54,324
I forgot I was talking to Patrick Swayze,

1358
00:52:54,366 --> 00:52:57,283
and I felt I was talking to somebody

1359
00:52:57,325 --> 00:52:59,741
who really, really wanted to know what…

1360
00:52:59,783 --> 00:53:01,408
what did this story mean?

1361
00:53:01,450 --> 00:53:04,074
There were aspects of Patrick
which I felt in that meeting.

1362
00:53:04,116 --> 00:53:07,658
This was somebody searching for a way of escaping

1363
00:53:07,700 --> 00:53:10,908
being what everybody was telling him he wanted to be,

1364
00:53:10,950 --> 00:53:12,158
and that became a theme,

1365
00:53:12,200 --> 00:53:15,991
and he was struggling to find the "him" inside that.

1366
00:53:16,033 --> 00:53:18,283
He was one of these actors also

1367
00:53:18,325 --> 00:53:19,866
that brought his work home with him.

1368
00:53:19,908 --> 00:53:21,283
He lived in it.

1369
00:53:21,325 --> 00:53:23,408
He would have a hard time dropping the role

1370
00:53:23,450 --> 00:53:24,741
after he left the set,

1371
00:53:24,783 --> 00:53:26,658
which was really tough on him.

1372
00:53:26,700 --> 00:53:31,824
The thing with City of Joy that broke my heart

1373
00:53:31,866 --> 00:53:34,699
was it wasn't received in the United States

1374
00:53:34,741 --> 00:53:36,283
the way he thought it was going to be,

1375
00:53:36,325 --> 00:53:37,866
and he was incredibly disappointed.

1376
00:53:39,616 --> 00:53:41,866
Hollywood, as a whole,

1377
00:53:41,908 --> 00:53:45,074
saw him as a bonafide star who could make money,

1378
00:53:45,116 --> 00:53:46,741
but I think that they, to some degree,

1379
00:53:46,783 --> 00:53:49,658
still wanted him to be that guy…

1380
00:53:49,700 --> 00:53:51,533
you know, The Sexiest Man Alive.

1381
00:53:51,575 --> 00:53:55,033
I don't know that they wanted him to be The Actor.

1382
00:53:55,075 --> 00:53:56,616
He wanted to be The Actor.

1383
00:53:58,316 --> 00:54:00,941
You don't decide what the world thinks of you,

1384
00:54:00,983 --> 00:54:01,941
or sees in you,

1385
00:54:01,983 --> 00:54:03,066
or the place that the world puts you in.

1386
00:54:03,108 --> 00:54:05,899
Even if you, in your heart, have this other…

1387
00:54:05,941 --> 00:54:07,691
"I'm an artist," you know?

1388
00:54:07,733 --> 00:54:08,899
"I'm a seeker.

1389
00:54:08,941 --> 00:54:12,774
I'm kind of like a hippie… by way of the rodeo,"

1390
00:54:12,816 --> 00:54:14,191
or whatever, you know?

1391
00:54:14,233 --> 00:54:15,858
That's the piece

1392
00:54:15,900 --> 00:54:17,399
that was always missing for him, I think,

1393
00:54:17,441 --> 00:54:19,483
that acceptance as an artist.

1394
00:54:19,525 --> 00:54:23,066
Being the star and being a character, it was…

1395
00:54:23,108 --> 00:54:24,816
it would've been a better place for him to move,

1396
00:54:24,858 --> 00:54:26,941
and I remember talking to him about that,

1397
00:54:26,983 --> 00:54:30,524
and that he didn't feel

1398
00:54:30,566 --> 00:54:32,649
that that was gonna be a choice that he could make,

1399
00:54:32,691 --> 00:54:34,649
that it would be made for him,

1400
00:54:34,691 --> 00:54:38,316
that he wasn't looked at as "an actor" like that,

1401
00:54:38,358 --> 00:54:40,191
but he was looked at as a movie star,

1402
00:54:40,233 --> 00:54:42,274
and movie stars don't always get to do those parts,

1403
00:54:42,316 --> 00:54:44,024
and he was absolutely right.

1404
00:54:44,066 --> 00:54:46,566
I think when you're carrying the big ball,

1405
00:54:46,608 --> 00:54:49,858
that, you know, it's a lot different game.

1406
00:54:49,900 --> 00:54:53,358
I'm happy to hold the horses, so to speak.

1407
00:54:53,400 --> 00:54:55,191
You know?

1408
00:55:14,241 --> 00:55:16,699
When he filmed Red Dawn back in the day,

1409
00:55:16,741 --> 00:55:18,908
he fell in love with the mountains of New Mexico,

1410
00:55:18,950 --> 00:55:20,366
and he vowed to come back someday.

1411
00:55:20,408 --> 00:55:21,574
I don't think he knew

1412
00:55:21,616 --> 00:55:23,199
that he was gonna come back and buy the mountain,

1413
00:55:23,241 --> 00:55:24,200
but he did.

1414
00:55:25,991 --> 00:55:27,491
I think he thought

1415
00:55:27,533 --> 00:55:29,616
that that's where he would retire.

1416
00:55:31,450 --> 00:55:32,991
You know, eventually,

1417
00:55:33,033 --> 00:55:35,158
when he walked away from the movie business,

1418
00:55:35,200 --> 00:55:37,533
that's what would have brought him solace.

1419
00:55:45,116 --> 00:55:47,075
He's got that ball in his mouth!

1420
00:55:47,316 --> 00:55:49,858
I think that was his birthright somehow.

1421
00:55:49,900 --> 00:55:50,774
He loved the outdoor.

1422
00:55:50,816 --> 00:55:54,066
He had a lasso, he had a rope.

1423
00:55:54,108 --> 00:55:55,566
He had all the equipment.

1424
00:55:55,608 --> 00:55:56,608
He had…

1425
00:55:56,650 --> 00:55:57,608
I think he had a tent.

1426
00:55:57,650 --> 00:55:59,524
He loved all that.

1427
00:55:59,566 --> 00:56:02,108
At one point, he said, "You know what?"

1428
00:56:02,150 --> 00:56:04,274
He says, "You know what?

1429
00:56:04,316 --> 00:56:06,233
I think I'm a cowboy."

1430
00:56:06,275 --> 00:56:07,524
You know, "I think…

1431
00:56:07,566 --> 00:56:09,525
I think that's who I really am."

1432
00:56:10,941 --> 00:56:13,149
I think being a cowboy speaks to a lot of us.

1433
00:56:13,191 --> 00:56:15,774
It's that "man alone."

1434
00:56:15,816 --> 00:56:17,983
It's that "man in nature," you know?

1435
00:56:18,025 --> 00:56:20,274
It's "man against the elements."

1436
00:56:20,316 --> 00:56:24,441
"Man against himself," in some ways,

1437
00:56:24,483 --> 00:56:25,774
which clearly…

1438
00:56:25,816 --> 00:56:28,858
maybe it spoke to Patrick.

1439
00:56:34,475 --> 00:56:38,141
Buddy's connection to the New Mexico ranch

1440
00:56:38,183 --> 00:56:40,766
fulfilled a dream of his father's,

1441
00:56:40,808 --> 00:56:44,308
which would become the oldest son's dream as well.

1442
00:56:44,350 --> 00:56:45,183
Living off the land.

1443
00:56:45,225 --> 00:56:46,974
Producing something from the land.

1444
00:56:47,016 --> 00:56:48,349
What people didn't often see

1445
00:56:48,391 --> 00:56:49,933
was the quiet side of my brother.

1446
00:56:49,975 --> 00:56:51,308
The cowboy who didn't need accolades.

1447
00:56:51,350 --> 00:56:53,141
Didn't need the attention.

1448
00:56:53,183 --> 00:56:54,808
He was more that

1449
00:56:54,850 --> 00:56:58,599
than he was anything anyone
saw on the Hollywood side.

1450
00:56:58,641 --> 00:57:00,724
I don't think he was happiest when he was…

1451
00:57:00,766 --> 00:57:03,224
when he was having to deal
with the Hollywood machine,

1452
00:57:03,266 --> 00:57:07,016
and, you know, he shied away
from most parties and stuff,

1453
00:57:07,058 --> 00:57:08,266
and there were times I would say to him,

1454
00:57:08,308 --> 00:57:09,766
"I'm sorry, but you've got to go to this."

1455
00:57:09,808 --> 00:57:13,183
You can't just go to work and then retreat.

1456
00:57:13,225 --> 00:57:14,183
You can't.

1457
00:57:14,225 --> 00:57:15,558
Your fans need to see you

1458
00:57:15,600 --> 00:57:19,474
"if you're going to remain popular."

1459
00:57:19,516 --> 00:57:20,308
When you're chopping wood

1460
00:57:20,350 --> 00:57:21,391
and carrying water,

1461
00:57:21,433 --> 00:57:23,016
there's a connection

1462
00:57:23,058 --> 00:57:24,808
to the earth that you have

1463
00:57:24,850 --> 00:57:26,058
that's not quite there

1464
00:57:26,100 --> 00:57:28,266
when you're standing in line in Starbucks,

1465
00:57:28,308 --> 00:57:30,558
and I think he knew that,

1466
00:57:30,600 --> 00:57:32,308
and he wanted to be connected.

1467
00:57:33,975 --> 00:57:35,933
I think that if he could figure out a way

1468
00:57:35,975 --> 00:57:36,974
to pay his bills,

1469
00:57:37,016 --> 00:57:40,016
he would sit in New Mexico and be a cowboy.

1470
00:57:44,100 --> 00:57:46,766
Patrick very much wanted to be a father,

1471
00:57:46,808 --> 00:57:49,974
I think because he wanted to
be as good a father to his child

1472
00:57:50,016 --> 00:57:51,100
as his dad had been to him.

1473
00:57:53,641 --> 00:57:56,558
You could tell he would've been a great dad.

1474
00:57:56,600 --> 00:57:58,308
Just as an uncle, you could just see it.

1475
00:57:58,350 --> 00:58:01,099
You could just see what an amazing dad he would be.

1476
00:58:01,141 --> 00:58:02,849
Sit right there.

1477
00:58:02,891 --> 00:58:03,766
Okay, blow it out.

1478
00:58:03,808 --> 00:58:04,516
Clap your hands, clap your hands…

1479
00:58:04,558 --> 00:58:06,349
Make a wish and blow it out.

1480
00:58:08,766 --> 00:58:10,558
What was that?

1481
00:58:10,600 --> 00:58:12,183
I'm gonna get ya.

1482
00:58:12,225 --> 00:58:13,641
Both of us loved kids

1483
00:58:13,683 --> 00:58:15,308
and always intended to have kids,

1484
00:58:15,350 --> 00:58:17,266
and I did become pregnant,

1485
00:58:17,308 --> 00:58:19,099
but I had a miscarriage,

1486
00:58:19,141 --> 00:58:21,683
and that was very…

1487
00:58:21,725 --> 00:58:23,224
who knew

1488
00:58:23,266 --> 00:58:26,808
that miscarriages were as painful as they are…

1489
00:58:26,850 --> 00:58:27,974
Emotionally painful,

1490
00:58:28,016 --> 00:58:31,058
and, uh…

1491
00:58:31,100 --> 00:58:33,849
you know, it was very heartbreaking.

1492
00:58:33,891 --> 00:58:36,724
He would've never wanted Lisa to feel bad

1493
00:58:36,766 --> 00:58:38,224
for having miscarriages,

1494
00:58:38,266 --> 00:58:39,224
but it crushed him.

1495
00:58:39,266 --> 00:58:40,308
So they tried.

1496
00:58:41,975 --> 00:58:44,099
I had been seeing acupuncturists

1497
00:58:44,141 --> 00:58:45,349
for a long time,

1498
00:58:45,391 --> 00:58:48,016
and then all of a sudden, I was too old.

1499
00:58:48,058 --> 00:58:49,766
I probably should have been better informed

1500
00:58:49,808 --> 00:58:51,016
about how to go about it,

1501
00:58:51,058 --> 00:58:53,849
but anyway, I may have wasted some time,

1502
00:58:53,891 --> 00:58:55,808
but, you know, I said, you know,

1503
00:58:55,850 --> 00:58:58,849
"How would you feel about adopting?" you know?

1504
00:58:58,891 --> 00:59:02,891
He, uh, got very teary-eyed,

1505
00:59:02,933 --> 00:59:05,516
and, you know, he…

1506
00:59:05,558 --> 00:59:08,516
he said, "I wanna have children with you," so…

1507
00:59:13,308 --> 00:59:14,433
When he and Lisa lost that baby,

1508
00:59:14,475 --> 00:59:15,891
it was crushing.

1509
00:59:15,933 --> 00:59:17,808
He would've been a great dad.

1510
00:59:17,850 --> 00:59:21,349
He was Daddy to all the animals on the ranch.

1511
00:59:21,391 --> 00:59:23,349
You know, those were like our kids.

1512
00:59:23,391 --> 00:59:24,891
There was a lot of love to give,

1513
00:59:24,933 --> 00:59:27,724
and it's wonderful to have…

1514
00:59:27,766 --> 00:59:30,058
all these wonderful little beings around

1515
00:59:30,100 --> 00:59:31,183
to give it to,

1516
00:59:31,225 --> 00:59:32,641
so that's where it went.

1517
00:59:37,308 --> 00:59:38,891
The role that Lisa played for Buddy

1518
00:59:38,933 --> 00:59:40,808
was very important.

1519
00:59:40,850 --> 00:59:42,433
She certainly pushed him

1520
00:59:42,475 --> 00:59:45,016
to not be frightened of looking into himself.

1521
00:59:45,058 --> 00:59:47,516
She was a very creative force for him, I think.

1522
00:59:47,558 --> 00:59:49,183
They were amazingly bonded.

1523
00:59:49,225 --> 00:59:50,808
I mean, beautifully bonded,

1524
00:59:50,850 --> 00:59:53,141
and he loved that relationship.

1525
00:59:53,183 --> 00:59:54,558
This was two human beings

1526
00:59:54,600 --> 00:59:58,141
who really, really shared a profound depth

1527
00:59:58,183 --> 00:59:59,391
about who they both were,

1528
00:59:59,433 --> 01:00:01,100
and you could feel that.

1529
01:00:03,725 --> 01:00:05,266
I think inside Buddy,

1530
01:00:05,308 --> 01:00:08,308
there always was a kind of lonely core.

1531
01:00:08,350 --> 01:00:09,641
I think there really was.

1532
01:00:09,683 --> 01:00:13,099
I think very, very few people knew

1533
01:00:13,141 --> 01:00:14,641
just how deep that was.

1534
01:00:14,683 --> 01:00:16,141
I'm sure Lisa did,

1535
01:00:16,183 --> 01:00:17,724
and I think Lisa helped fill that,

1536
01:00:17,766 --> 01:00:20,641
and I think some of his closest friends did,

1537
01:00:20,683 --> 01:00:23,058
and I think they knew that they helped fill that,

1538
01:00:23,100 --> 01:00:25,641
but fundamentally inside Buddy…

1539
01:00:25,683 --> 01:00:27,558
there was an innate loneliness,

1540
01:00:27,600 --> 01:00:31,433
and I think that's where his art came from.

1541
01:00:31,475 --> 01:00:33,349
Oh, please…

1542
01:00:35,183 --> 01:00:37,891
I guess it's all on account of what you really are.

1543
01:00:37,933 --> 01:00:41,766
Because Bobby Ray told me what you really are.

1544
01:00:41,808 --> 01:00:43,224
He did?

1545
01:00:43,266 --> 01:00:44,766
Yeah.

1546
01:00:44,808 --> 01:00:47,516
You're a career girl.

1547
01:00:47,558 --> 01:00:49,724
Oh, yes.

1548
01:00:50,683 --> 01:00:52,891
I wanted to play that part.

1549
01:00:52,933 --> 01:00:54,849
I shaved my legs for that part…

1550
01:00:54,891 --> 01:00:57,808
Ready or not, here comes Mama.

1551
01:00:57,850 --> 01:01:02,350
I got a Azzedine Alaïa skirt for that part.

1552
01:01:03,683 --> 01:01:07,933
I got a Jane Fonda China Syndrome-era red wig.

1553
01:01:07,975 --> 01:01:09,974
I stopped traffic

1554
01:01:10,016 --> 01:01:11,641
walking down the street

1555
01:01:11,683 --> 01:01:13,558
in front of the audition place in New York City.

1556
01:01:13,600 --> 01:01:15,308
Literally…

1557
01:01:15,350 --> 01:01:18,516
"People have been saying I'm feminine and pretty…

1558
01:01:18,558 --> 01:01:19,558
pretty boy.

1559
01:01:19,600 --> 01:01:20,766
This is a lock.

1560
01:01:20,808 --> 01:01:24,683
This is a lock for me!"

1561
01:01:24,725 --> 01:01:25,558
Didn't get the part.

1562
01:01:25,600 --> 01:01:28,766
Swayze gets the part.

1563
01:01:30,975 --> 01:01:34,058
That was the one time I was probably like…

1564
01:01:34,100 --> 01:01:35,391
"Damn him."

1565
01:01:35,433 --> 01:01:37,849
Over 30 actors read for that role,

1566
01:01:37,891 --> 01:01:40,224
but they couldn't "be" a woman.

1567
01:01:40,266 --> 01:01:42,266
Patrick, because of his dance training,

1568
01:01:42,308 --> 01:01:45,016
he could actually put on the clothes,

1569
01:01:45,058 --> 01:01:47,433
and he could become that person.

1570
01:01:47,475 --> 01:01:48,724
Okay, here we go, please.

1571
01:01:48,766 --> 01:01:51,099
Stand by!

1572
01:02:03,933 --> 01:02:05,349
I remember watching Patrick

1573
01:02:05,391 --> 01:02:07,891
and thinking, "Man…

1574
01:02:07,933 --> 01:02:09,766
that guy is so good, so good."

1575
01:02:09,808 --> 01:02:12,558
You know, it's one thing playing the macho man,

1576
01:02:12,600 --> 01:02:13,683
doing all the stuff,

1577
01:02:13,725 --> 01:02:16,224
but when you get to look deep

1578
01:02:16,266 --> 01:02:20,516
and see something… gentler,

1579
01:02:20,558 --> 01:02:22,474
for lack of a better word,

1580
01:02:22,516 --> 01:02:24,516
something at the heart of the man,

1581
01:02:24,558 --> 01:02:27,808
then there's a great value there.

1582
01:02:27,850 --> 01:02:30,349
And I will say,

1583
01:02:30,391 --> 01:02:33,266
"My name is Miss Vida Boheme…"

1584
01:02:33,308 --> 01:02:34,558
Go ahead, girl.

1585
01:02:34,600 --> 01:02:36,558
"…and your approval is not needed."

1586
01:02:36,600 --> 01:02:37,599
That's right,

1587
01:02:37,641 --> 01:02:39,474
approval neither desired nor required.

1588
01:02:39,516 --> 01:02:43,058
"But I will take your acceptance."

1589
01:02:43,100 --> 01:02:44,308
All right.

1590
01:02:44,350 --> 01:02:45,933
Me too. Me too.

1591
01:02:45,975 --> 01:02:47,475
Well, everybody can see you tonight

1592
01:02:47,716 --> 01:02:49,591
across the country in To Wong Foo.

1593
01:02:49,633 --> 01:02:51,299
Best of luck to you. -Thank you.

1594
01:02:51,341 --> 01:02:52,633
I thought it was great, and Gene Siskel says

1595
01:02:52,675 --> 01:02:53,549
you're probably going to get

1596
01:02:53,591 --> 01:02:54,341
an Oscar nomination out of this.

1597
01:02:54,383 --> 01:02:55,174
I don't like to hear that.

1598
01:02:55,216 --> 01:02:56,091
I know you don't want to hear it,

1599
01:02:56,133 --> 01:02:58,008
but it should… pump yourself up.

1600
01:02:58,050 --> 01:02:59,049
It does feel good.

1601
01:02:59,091 --> 01:03:00,091
The acknowledgement is nice.

1602
01:03:00,133 --> 01:03:01,466
Good to see you. -Thanks. -Good luck.

1603
01:03:09,991 --> 01:03:11,783
Buddy often is described

1604
01:03:11,825 --> 01:03:13,783
as having this sunny disposition.

1605
01:03:13,825 --> 01:03:14,949
You know, he'd be out there

1606
01:03:14,991 --> 01:03:17,908
and he'd be bubbly, and fun,

1607
01:03:17,950 --> 01:03:19,574
and this and that, and da, da, da, da…

1608
01:03:19,616 --> 01:03:20,699
And then he…

1609
01:03:20,741 --> 01:03:22,116
as soon as he's by himself and alone,

1610
01:03:22,158 --> 01:03:23,324
he would just crash.

1611
01:03:23,366 --> 01:03:26,241
I have these demons that run around in my insides.

1612
01:03:26,283 --> 01:03:27,741
I've done everything in the world

1613
01:03:27,783 --> 01:03:29,158
thinking I'm gonna get rid of them

1614
01:03:29,200 --> 01:03:31,074
and some day I'm going to have "happy,"

1615
01:03:31,116 --> 01:03:33,408
and the shortness of breath will go away, and…

1616
01:03:33,450 --> 01:03:36,324
and I don't know if it ever will.

1617
01:03:36,366 --> 01:03:38,449
I remember I did some reading,

1618
01:03:38,491 --> 01:03:41,949
and I came up with this thing
called "Bipolar II disorder,"

1619
01:03:41,991 --> 01:03:43,908
and I talked to my brother Patrick about it,

1620
01:03:43,950 --> 01:03:46,616
and we both agreed, "Wow, that sounds just like us."

1621
01:03:46,658 --> 01:03:49,658
I've given up on "happy"…

1622
01:03:49,700 --> 01:03:51,574
but I'm happy, you know, I'm-I'm…

1623
01:03:54,325 --> 01:03:55,241
There are a lot of people

1624
01:03:55,283 --> 01:03:56,324
who have alcohol problems

1625
01:03:56,366 --> 01:04:00,658
that actually have some emotional

1626
01:04:00,700 --> 01:04:02,741
and mental problems going on with them,

1627
01:04:02,783 --> 01:04:05,991
and they use the alcohol to mask it.

1628
01:04:06,033 --> 01:04:09,366
Patrick would have problems with alcohol off and on.

1629
01:04:09,408 --> 01:04:12,158
He'd… he'd go through long periods

1630
01:04:12,200 --> 01:04:14,241
where it would get really, really bad,

1631
01:04:14,283 --> 01:04:18,074
and then he would, you know, kinda white-knuckle it

1632
01:04:18,116 --> 01:04:19,241
and get sober,

1633
01:04:19,283 --> 01:04:21,241
and not drink for a while,

1634
01:04:21,283 --> 01:04:22,908
and then…

1635
01:04:22,950 --> 01:04:24,991
start sliding down the slope again.

1636
01:04:40,741 --> 01:04:43,616
We could always take this out later, right?

1637
01:04:43,658 --> 01:04:45,408
Absolutely. Absolutely.

1638
01:04:45,450 --> 01:04:47,699
Well, you know, it…

1639
01:04:52,658 --> 01:04:54,824
You know, he didn't stop drinking,

1640
01:04:54,866 --> 01:04:57,908
and, uh, it was…

1641
01:04:57,950 --> 01:04:59,116
It was bad,

1642
01:04:59,158 --> 01:05:01,658
and I know I write in the book, you know,

1643
01:05:01,700 --> 01:05:04,949
that, uh…

1644
01:05:04,991 --> 01:05:06,574
that I had moved out for a year, you know,

1645
01:05:06,616 --> 01:05:08,408
because it got to a point

1646
01:05:08,450 --> 01:05:10,449
where I was, like, you know, "Someone's gonna die here.

1647
01:05:10,491 --> 01:05:12,408
It's either gonna be him, or it's gonna be me."

1648
01:05:18,866 --> 01:05:19,699
I don't think I ever said,

1649
01:05:19,741 --> 01:05:21,283
"Why are you drinking?"

1650
01:05:21,325 --> 01:05:23,158
It would've been a stupid question.

1651
01:05:23,200 --> 01:05:25,491
I would have said, "I wish you weren't drinking.

1652
01:05:25,533 --> 01:05:26,991
I wish you would go to rehab.

1653
01:05:27,033 --> 01:05:28,658
I wish you would get healthy.

1654
01:05:28,700 --> 01:05:31,574
I wish you would be the star that you were meant to be."

1655
01:05:31,616 --> 01:05:33,533
I was still over there every day,

1656
01:05:33,575 --> 01:05:34,491
you know,

1657
01:05:34,533 --> 01:05:35,783
and I still loved him,

1658
01:05:35,825 --> 01:05:37,074
you know…

1659
01:05:37,116 --> 01:05:39,866
and, uh…

1660
01:05:39,908 --> 01:05:40,741
But it was…

1661
01:05:40,783 --> 01:05:42,449
You know, it's very hard

1662
01:05:42,491 --> 01:05:45,366
to watch someone destroy themselves,

1663
01:05:45,408 --> 01:05:46,325
you know?

1664
01:05:52,658 --> 01:05:55,408
Anybody who's lived with someone

1665
01:05:55,450 --> 01:05:57,908
who has a terrible problem like that,

1666
01:05:57,950 --> 01:06:00,616
it's unbelievably painful,

1667
01:06:00,658 --> 01:06:02,824
and I would cry every day.

1668
01:06:02,866 --> 01:06:04,199
I would cry every day,

1669
01:06:04,241 --> 01:06:06,991
and I'd pull onto the ranch,

1670
01:06:07,033 --> 01:06:09,074
and I'd have to stop the car and cry

1671
01:06:09,116 --> 01:06:10,991
before I walked in the house,

1672
01:06:11,033 --> 01:06:12,824
and, you know, I'd smell his breath,

1673
01:06:12,866 --> 01:06:14,824
and it would wake me up, and I'd start crying,

1674
01:06:14,866 --> 01:06:20,116
and I think I sat almost half the night

1675
01:06:20,158 --> 01:06:22,241
on the steps of the dance studio crying.

1676
01:06:22,283 --> 01:06:23,949
You know, and I…

1677
01:06:23,991 --> 01:06:26,366
you know, it was horrible, though,

1678
01:06:26,408 --> 01:06:30,033
because you're, like…

1679
01:06:30,075 --> 01:06:32,158
to stay was killing me,

1680
01:06:32,200 --> 01:06:33,991
but to leave would've killed me too,

1681
01:06:34,033 --> 01:06:35,158
you know?

1682
01:06:36,866 --> 01:06:37,949
That was a very…

1683
01:06:37,991 --> 01:06:40,283
That was really a low point, you know?

1684
01:06:40,325 --> 01:06:41,449
It was a low point.

1685
01:06:41,491 --> 01:06:43,158
We had a therapist come in.

1686
01:06:43,200 --> 01:06:45,449
She addressed our relationship,

1687
01:06:45,491 --> 01:06:50,324
and about loving each other, and…

1688
01:06:50,366 --> 01:06:53,991
and there was something in what she said

1689
01:06:54,033 --> 01:06:58,825
that, uh, Buddy looked over at me…

1690
01:07:02,825 --> 01:07:04,033
and he…

1691
01:07:04,075 --> 01:07:07,908
it's like he, for the first time in years, he saw me,

1692
01:07:07,950 --> 01:07:11,199
and I know he saw how much I loved him.

1693
01:07:11,241 --> 01:07:12,699
I saw in his eyes

1694
01:07:12,741 --> 01:07:15,658
he wished that all the bad stuff would go away.

1695
01:07:15,700 --> 01:07:17,908
That's what he wanted.

1696
01:07:17,950 --> 01:07:20,866
We recognized each other again,

1697
01:07:20,908 --> 01:07:23,533
and what we had always seen in each other.

1698
01:07:25,616 --> 01:07:29,199
We had so many challenging things to deal with,

1699
01:07:29,241 --> 01:07:32,824
but underneath, we're still the same people,

1700
01:07:32,866 --> 01:07:36,658
and things went from horrible

1701
01:07:36,700 --> 01:07:39,158
to the best they've ever been.

1702
01:07:40,533 --> 01:07:41,991
No, seriously.

1703
01:07:42,033 --> 01:07:43,116
Miraculous…

1704
01:07:43,158 --> 01:07:46,533
miraculous turnaround,

1705
01:07:46,575 --> 01:07:50,866
and we were the happiest we had ever been.

1706
01:07:50,908 --> 01:07:54,949
It's like we finally gained the wisdom to…

1707
01:07:54,991 --> 01:07:57,158
have what we wanted,

1708
01:07:57,200 --> 01:07:58,991
and know how to have it,

1709
01:07:59,033 --> 01:08:00,283
and I have to say,

1710
01:08:00,325 --> 01:08:02,116
I was really appreciative

1711
01:08:02,158 --> 01:08:03,991
that that change had come

1712
01:08:04,033 --> 01:08:06,658
before he found out he was sick,

1713
01:08:06,700 --> 01:08:09,074
because if I'd stayed with him…

1714
01:08:09,116 --> 01:08:10,533
if things were bad,

1715
01:08:10,575 --> 01:08:12,366
and I stayed with him after he found out,

1716
01:08:12,408 --> 01:08:14,991
he would've thought that I was pitying him,

1717
01:08:15,033 --> 01:08:16,658
and…

1718
01:08:16,700 --> 01:08:19,783
whereas, uh…

1719
01:08:19,825 --> 01:08:21,574
when he went to face that cancer,

1720
01:08:21,616 --> 01:08:23,658
he knew, you know,

1721
01:08:23,700 --> 01:08:26,158
I was there because I loved him that much.

1722
01:08:34,566 --> 01:08:36,191
Some tough news this morning

1723
01:08:36,233 --> 01:08:37,649
about actor Patrick Swayze,

1724
01:08:37,691 --> 01:08:39,149
a much-loved actor,

1725
01:08:39,191 --> 01:08:41,941
star of the hit films Dirty Dancing and Ghost.

1726
01:08:41,983 --> 01:08:45,483
He has been diagnosed with pancreatic cancer.

1727
01:08:45,525 --> 01:08:48,316
His representative says
he is continuing with his life,

1728
01:08:48,358 --> 01:08:49,483
continuing with his work,

1729
01:08:49,525 --> 01:08:50,733
and his optimism.

1730
01:08:52,150 --> 01:08:53,983
I was in his kitchen,

1731
01:08:54,025 --> 01:08:55,399
and there was a speaker phone,

1732
01:08:55,441 --> 01:08:57,274
and the doctor,

1733
01:08:57,316 --> 01:08:58,774
with no beside manner at all,

1734
01:08:58,816 --> 01:09:00,191
he just spit it out.

1735
01:09:00,233 --> 01:09:02,441
"Your cancer has indeed metastasized.

1736
01:09:02,483 --> 01:09:05,483
It's in your liver and in your lungs,"

1737
01:09:05,525 --> 01:09:08,524
and he just kinda clenched his jaw,

1738
01:09:08,566 --> 01:09:10,108
and then he left the room for a second,

1739
01:09:10,150 --> 01:09:11,524
and then he came back in

1740
01:09:11,566 --> 01:09:13,358
in, like, 30 seconds.

1741
01:09:13,400 --> 01:09:14,608
I mean, he went out, and had a little moment,

1742
01:09:14,650 --> 01:09:15,608
then came back in.

1743
01:09:15,650 --> 01:09:17,983
Even though he supposedly had the cancer

1744
01:09:18,025 --> 01:09:19,733
that no-one's gonna recover from,

1745
01:09:19,775 --> 01:09:23,358
I said to him, I said…

1746
01:09:23,400 --> 01:09:25,441
"Okay, five percent.

1747
01:09:25,483 --> 01:09:26,983
I've seen you be in the top five percent

1748
01:09:27,025 --> 01:09:28,066
in everything you've ever done.

1749
01:09:28,108 --> 01:09:29,441
Why not now?"

1750
01:09:29,483 --> 01:09:30,691
He goes, "Damn right."

1751
01:09:30,733 --> 01:09:34,066
He was just so physical, you know?

1752
01:09:34,108 --> 01:09:35,899
When you're a master of your body physically,

1753
01:09:35,941 --> 01:09:38,274
I think you think

1754
01:09:38,316 --> 01:09:42,941
you are larger than any disease,

1755
01:09:42,983 --> 01:09:45,941
or any emotional problem

1756
01:09:45,983 --> 01:09:48,274
or mental problem.

1757
01:09:48,316 --> 01:09:51,483
So when it hit him, it hit me hard,

1758
01:09:51,525 --> 01:09:53,566
you know, it really…

1759
01:09:53,608 --> 01:09:55,149
really hit me hard.

1760
01:09:55,191 --> 01:09:58,774
You know, he always played heroes in his movies.

1761
01:09:58,816 --> 01:10:00,899
You know, the cape and the sword

1762
01:10:00,941 --> 01:10:02,066
and the horse,

1763
01:10:02,108 --> 01:10:03,524
and…

1764
01:10:03,566 --> 01:10:05,608
but he showed himself to be a really…

1765
01:10:05,650 --> 01:10:07,524
really truly a hero.

1766
01:10:09,525 --> 01:10:14,149
I just saw the most incredible man.

1767
01:10:14,191 --> 01:10:17,566
It was the best of himself that I saw.

1768
01:10:20,608 --> 01:10:21,941
And, Patrick, straight ahead please, sir!

1769
01:10:21,983 --> 01:10:23,233
Some of us were thinking,

1770
01:10:23,275 --> 01:10:25,024
"It's time to go buy an island somewhere, big brother,

1771
01:10:25,066 --> 01:10:27,483
and just do whatever you want,"

1772
01:10:27,525 --> 01:10:30,024
but no, he goes to Chicago,

1773
01:10:30,066 --> 01:10:32,191
where it was six below, in the dead of winter,

1774
01:10:32,233 --> 01:10:35,191
and he does this series about a FBI agent.

1775
01:10:35,233 --> 01:10:38,483
Hey! Those things will kill you.

1776
01:10:38,525 --> 01:10:39,566
Don't just stand there.

1777
01:10:39,608 --> 01:10:40,733
Pop the trunk.

1778
01:10:40,775 --> 01:10:42,274
It wasn't denial.

1779
01:10:42,316 --> 01:10:43,233
It takes me back to when he said,

1780
01:10:43,275 --> 01:10:44,358
"I don't know how to die.

1781
01:10:44,400 --> 01:10:46,191
I'm just gonna live until I stop."

1782
01:10:47,566 --> 01:10:48,483
When I heard

1783
01:10:48,525 --> 01:10:50,108
that he was going to continue working,

1784
01:10:50,150 --> 01:10:52,399
I thought, "If anything is gonna help this guy",

1785
01:10:52,441 --> 01:10:55,649
or maybe even save him, with the help from medicine,

1786
01:10:55,691 --> 01:10:57,566
it's to continue doing the thing that he…

1787
01:10:57,608 --> 01:10:58,941
that he does,

1788
01:10:58,983 --> 01:11:00,774
"which is, you know, work."

1789
01:11:00,816 --> 01:11:02,566
He was gonna fight it. He was…

1790
01:11:02,608 --> 01:11:03,733
And it's what he did.

1791
01:11:03,775 --> 01:11:05,733
It's what he loved to do.

1792
01:11:05,775 --> 01:11:07,399
You know, he was an artist.

1793
01:11:07,441 --> 01:11:08,858
He was a performer.

1794
01:11:08,900 --> 01:11:10,399
He wanted to keep going.

1795
01:11:10,441 --> 01:11:11,774
He didn't wanna give it up.

1796
01:11:11,816 --> 01:11:13,691
He wanted to try to do something better.

1797
01:11:13,733 --> 01:11:15,733
Maybe he was trying to do something better, you know,

1798
01:11:15,775 --> 01:11:17,108
before it was done.

1799
01:11:17,150 --> 01:11:18,483
Talk about tough.

1800
01:11:18,525 --> 01:11:20,233
Fighting pancreatic cancer,

1801
01:11:20,275 --> 01:11:22,858
working 14-16-hour days,

1802
01:11:22,900 --> 01:11:25,566
getting chemo on the weekends.

1803
01:11:25,608 --> 01:11:27,316
You know, the greatest word you could say to Buddy is

1804
01:11:27,358 --> 01:11:28,941
"You can't do it."

1805
01:11:28,983 --> 01:11:31,108
Because the second you say, "You can't do it."

1806
01:11:31,150 --> 01:11:33,108
"I will not be denied the ability,

1807
01:11:33,150 --> 01:11:34,274
or the opportunity,

1808
01:11:34,316 --> 01:11:37,233
or the chance to meet, dance,

1809
01:11:37,275 --> 01:11:40,608
ride, jump, climb…

1810
01:11:40,650 --> 01:11:42,066
bring together…

1811
01:11:42,108 --> 01:11:43,274
give to people.

1812
01:11:43,316 --> 01:11:45,816
I will not be denied that opportunity.

1813
01:11:45,858 --> 01:11:48,774
"No one will deny me that opportunity."

1814
01:11:48,816 --> 01:11:50,899
Giving of himself,

1815
01:11:50,941 --> 01:11:52,066
and his heart, and his passion

1816
01:11:52,108 --> 01:11:53,358
was paramount.

1817
01:11:53,400 --> 01:11:55,608
I mean, just absolutely paramount.

1818
01:11:55,650 --> 01:11:56,941
He was great in The Beast.

1819
01:11:56,983 --> 01:11:59,983
Whenever an actor is wearing on them

1820
01:12:00,025 --> 01:12:01,441
their own struggles,

1821
01:12:01,483 --> 01:12:04,066
it's unbelievably compelling.

1822
01:12:04,108 --> 01:12:07,274
I don't wish those kind of struggles on people,

1823
01:12:07,316 --> 01:12:08,483
and at the end of the day,

1824
01:12:08,525 --> 01:12:10,024
it's not worth it just to give a good performance,

1825
01:12:10,066 --> 01:12:11,524
but that said,

1826
01:12:11,566 --> 01:12:14,858
it was so clear what was going on,

1827
01:12:14,900 --> 01:12:17,733
and it just made him riveting.

1828
01:12:17,775 --> 01:12:19,649
This was just courage.

1829
01:12:19,691 --> 01:12:21,149
This was raw courage

1830
01:12:21,191 --> 01:12:23,399
of somebody who knew they were going to die,

1831
01:12:23,441 --> 01:12:25,358
but wasn't making an issue of it, in a strange way.

1832
01:12:25,400 --> 01:12:26,858
It was coming down for breakfast.

1833
01:12:26,900 --> 01:12:30,024
It was living his life as much as possible.

1834
01:12:30,066 --> 01:12:31,274
I just got the feeling

1835
01:12:31,316 --> 01:12:33,774
that part of him had found
a spiritual home somewhere

1836
01:12:33,816 --> 01:12:35,358
and wasn't frightened,

1837
01:12:35,400 --> 01:12:39,274
and that sounded very much to me like the real Buddy,

1838
01:12:39,316 --> 01:12:41,316
the real Patrick Swayze.

1839
01:12:41,358 --> 01:12:44,274
He was offered this protocol

1840
01:12:44,316 --> 01:12:46,441
where they're taking 120 people

1841
01:12:46,483 --> 01:12:47,691
and trying out a new med.

1842
01:12:47,733 --> 01:12:50,566
I think he really believed he could be in that top…

1843
01:12:50,608 --> 01:12:51,858
top five percent.

1844
01:12:51,900 --> 01:12:54,066
There was an interview where he was at LAX,

1845
01:12:54,108 --> 01:12:55,816
I think he was going to Chicago to work,

1846
01:12:55,858 --> 01:12:56,608
and he told someone,

1847
01:12:56,650 --> 01:12:57,524
he said, "I'm a miracle, dude."

1848
01:12:57,566 --> 01:12:59,024
I'm a miracle, dude.

1849
01:12:59,066 --> 01:12:59,983
Yeah?

1850
01:13:00,025 --> 01:13:01,858
I don't know why.

1851
01:13:01,900 --> 01:13:03,858
And I saw it, and I said, "He believes it."

1852
01:13:03,900 --> 01:13:05,191
You know?

1853
01:13:05,233 --> 01:13:06,858
And then, when I saw him three months later,

1854
01:13:06,900 --> 01:13:09,024
and he had dropped 50 pounds in Chicago,

1855
01:13:09,066 --> 01:13:11,441
it was evident that, uh,

1856
01:13:11,483 --> 01:13:14,441
the miracle was starting to fail us…

1857
01:13:16,566 --> 01:13:18,816
…and he saw me through the crowd,

1858
01:13:18,858 --> 01:13:22,274
and he stopped shooting everything to run to me,

1859
01:13:22,316 --> 01:13:24,191
and we embraced,

1860
01:13:24,233 --> 01:13:26,191
and I'll never forget hugging him, and…

1861
01:13:26,233 --> 01:13:29,191
oh, god, just, it was like he collapsed in.

1862
01:13:29,233 --> 01:13:31,858
My brother, he was my big brother,

1863
01:13:34,816 --> 01:13:37,191
But he finished the series.

1864
01:13:38,483 --> 01:13:42,733
Actually, the last episode of the series, I directed.

1865
01:13:42,775 --> 01:13:45,858
In spite of being ill,

1866
01:13:45,900 --> 01:13:48,858
he moved mountains to try and be on the set for me,

1867
01:13:48,900 --> 01:13:51,983
and…

1868
01:13:53,983 --> 01:13:56,608
He was so supportive.

1869
01:13:56,650 --> 01:13:59,858
He really wanted that for me,

1870
01:13:59,900 --> 01:14:01,774
and, of course, it was important to me,

1871
01:14:01,816 --> 01:14:02,941
because it felt like,

1872
01:14:02,983 --> 01:14:06,524
yeah, if I did lose him,

1873
01:14:06,566 --> 01:14:10,524
that it showed me I could still have a life,

1874
01:14:10,566 --> 01:14:11,566
you know?

1875
01:14:11,608 --> 01:14:12,608
He did everything

1876
01:14:12,650 --> 01:14:15,733
to be there for me during that time, and…

1877
01:14:15,775 --> 01:14:17,649
and I really knew

1878
01:14:17,691 --> 01:14:21,066
that he was trying to give me a gift,

1879
01:14:21,108 --> 01:14:22,108
which he did.

1880
01:14:29,966 --> 01:14:32,758
And now, please welcome Patrick Swayze.

1881
01:14:50,975 --> 01:14:52,599
This was an important event,

1882
01:14:52,641 --> 01:14:54,433
and he flew back from The Beast

1883
01:14:54,475 --> 01:14:56,766
to shoot it in L.A.

1884
01:14:56,808 --> 01:14:58,516
and walked on stage,

1885
01:14:58,558 --> 01:15:00,474
he got a standing ovation.

1886
01:15:03,266 --> 01:15:06,141
I keep dreaming of a future…

1887
01:15:07,475 --> 01:15:10,599
a future with a long and healthy life,

1888
01:15:10,641 --> 01:15:13,808
a life not lived in the shadow of cancer,

1889
01:15:13,850 --> 01:15:15,766
but in the light.

1890
01:15:15,808 --> 01:15:17,433
I dream that everyone diagnosed

1891
01:15:17,475 --> 01:15:19,891
will be fortunate enough to have hope,

1892
01:15:19,933 --> 01:15:23,433
that every human being lost to cancer isn't gone,

1893
01:15:23,475 --> 01:15:25,433
but is standing here with us tonight.

1894
01:15:25,475 --> 01:15:27,599
Together, we can make the world

1895
01:15:27,641 --> 01:15:30,808
where cancer no longer means living with fear,

1896
01:15:30,850 --> 01:15:34,141
without hope, or worse.

1897
01:15:34,183 --> 01:15:35,724
Tonight, I stand here,

1898
01:15:35,766 --> 01:15:38,558
another individual living with cancer,

1899
01:15:38,600 --> 01:15:41,099
who asks that we not wait any longer,

1900
01:15:41,141 --> 01:15:43,766
and I ask only one thing of you:

1901
01:15:43,808 --> 01:15:46,183
will you stand up with me?

1902
01:15:46,225 --> 01:15:49,266
Will you stand up to cancer?

1903
01:15:49,308 --> 01:15:52,266
So we'll be right over there waiting for your call.

1904
01:15:54,225 --> 01:15:56,933
The phone lines flooded immediately,

1905
01:15:56,975 --> 01:15:58,974
so it was really good that he did that.

1906
01:15:59,016 --> 01:16:02,266
We had heard that from that,

1907
01:16:02,308 --> 01:16:04,391
he had inspired people all over,

1908
01:16:04,433 --> 01:16:06,724
and then you'd read that so-and-so is rallying,

1909
01:16:06,766 --> 01:16:07,766
and this, and that,

1910
01:16:07,808 --> 01:16:08,974
so I think…

1911
01:16:09,016 --> 01:16:11,391
I think it encouraged a lot of people,

1912
01:16:11,433 --> 01:16:12,474
but unfortunately,

1913
01:16:12,516 --> 01:16:13,724
if you know anything about pancreatic cancer,

1914
01:16:13,766 --> 01:16:15,266
it just, it didn't…

1915
01:16:16,841 --> 01:16:18,716
it didn't take… it didn't…

1916
01:16:18,758 --> 01:16:21,175
it didn't last long.

1917
01:16:25,758 --> 01:16:28,466
When we knew it was getting to the end, I said,

1918
01:16:28,508 --> 01:16:31,716
"Let's just hit it with everything we've got,

1919
01:16:31,758 --> 01:16:36,841
and on Monday, if he hasn't improved, then…

1920
01:16:36,883 --> 01:16:38,758
then we'll stop,"

1921
01:16:38,800 --> 01:16:41,133
and he hadn't improved, and so…

1922
01:16:41,175 --> 01:16:42,799
"We need to go home.

1923
01:16:42,841 --> 01:16:44,924
You know, I think he would want to be home,"

1924
01:16:44,966 --> 01:16:47,799
and somehow, we managed to get him there.

1925
01:16:47,841 --> 01:16:49,883
He was not cognizant.

1926
01:16:49,925 --> 01:16:51,674
You know, and that was the buildup of…

1927
01:16:51,716 --> 01:16:56,049
buildup of the toxins in his body at that point,

1928
01:16:56,091 --> 01:16:59,424
and, uh…

1929
01:16:59,466 --> 01:17:03,216
our security guy was afraid
he wouldn't even make it home.

1930
01:17:03,258 --> 01:17:04,258
I said, "No, he's…"

1931
01:17:04,300 --> 01:17:06,258
I knew in my gut he was gonna make it home.

1932
01:17:06,300 --> 01:17:07,716
It was really happening,

1933
01:17:07,758 --> 01:17:09,883
because there's part of me…

1934
01:17:09,925 --> 01:17:11,549
you know, you just wanna believe

1935
01:17:11,591 --> 01:17:13,716
that he's gonna wake up tomorrow,

1936
01:17:13,758 --> 01:17:17,591
or a cure is gonna pop up, but…

1937
01:17:22,883 --> 01:17:25,549
It was clear to me that when he left his body,

1938
01:17:25,591 --> 01:17:27,841
he had completely used it up,

1939
01:17:27,883 --> 01:17:29,841
and it was…

1940
01:17:29,883 --> 01:17:31,924
worthless to him.

1941
01:17:31,966 --> 01:17:34,216
It was not serving him anymore…

1942
01:17:37,008 --> 01:17:39,008
and after he died, I had…

1943
01:17:39,050 --> 01:17:40,466
there were some beautiful white roses,

1944
01:17:40,508 --> 01:17:43,383
and I put this white rose on his chest,

1945
01:17:43,425 --> 01:17:45,341
a beautiful, perfect white rose,

1946
01:17:45,383 --> 01:17:48,091
and there was this amulet that he loved

1947
01:17:48,133 --> 01:17:50,466
from kind of…

1948
01:17:50,508 --> 01:17:52,799
it's all these coral beads,

1949
01:17:52,841 --> 01:17:55,424
and then this bead is stuffed with this big crystal,

1950
01:17:55,466 --> 01:17:58,133
and he thought it was this very tribal, magical thing,

1951
01:17:58,175 --> 01:18:01,341
and I hung that on the bed above his head,

1952
01:18:01,383 --> 01:18:03,341
and, uh…

1953
01:18:03,383 --> 01:18:06,841
and the… our… our guy who took care of our horses

1954
01:18:06,883 --> 01:18:08,133
brought Roh,

1955
01:18:08,175 --> 01:18:10,008
this blinding, silvery-white stallion.

1956
01:18:16,883 --> 01:18:18,424
I was in the bedroom,

1957
01:18:18,466 --> 01:18:21,841
and you couldn't help but
see this huge, white stallion,

1958
01:18:21,883 --> 01:18:25,133
and then Lucio, the ranch foreman,

1959
01:18:25,175 --> 01:18:26,466
was leading him,

1960
01:18:26,508 --> 01:18:28,633
and he had the horse do a bow.

1961
01:18:28,675 --> 01:18:30,174
He did a bow,

1962
01:18:30,216 --> 01:18:33,133
sort of… a last bow to my brother.

1963
01:18:38,425 --> 01:18:40,466
I think it was beautiful.

1964
01:19:25,175 --> 01:19:28,341
…pull away from Buddy.

1965
01:19:28,383 --> 01:19:29,883
The world was a great place with him.

1966
01:19:29,925 --> 01:19:31,924
It's a…

1967
01:19:31,966 --> 01:19:34,425
and it's a better place having had him…

1968
01:19:36,008 --> 01:19:38,216
and he is missed every day.

1969
01:19:38,258 --> 01:19:41,133
For me, it was like a light went out.

1970
01:19:41,175 --> 01:19:43,341
He was such a bright light,

1971
01:19:43,383 --> 01:19:47,174
but you know what, again, if you take the love with you,

1972
01:19:47,216 --> 01:19:49,258
then he knows how I feel.

1973
01:19:49,300 --> 01:19:52,716
Who he'll be for us is still sort of gelling.

1974
01:19:52,758 --> 01:19:54,883
I don't feel that we've decided yet,

1975
01:19:54,925 --> 01:19:56,383
because I think we have decided

1976
01:19:56,425 --> 01:19:58,841
that we underestimated him.

1977
01:19:58,883 --> 01:20:00,966
I don't think he really knew

1978
01:20:01,008 --> 01:20:04,508
that people cared for him as much as they did.

1979
01:20:04,550 --> 01:20:06,466
I don't know how he couldn't,

1980
01:20:06,508 --> 01:20:09,966
because everybody was, you know, "Buddy, hey!"

1981
01:20:10,008 --> 01:20:10,925
You know?

1982
01:20:13,008 --> 01:20:17,258
It was sad to see someone so full of life

1983
01:20:17,300 --> 01:20:19,549
go so early.

1984
01:20:19,591 --> 01:20:23,299
I think his sweetness really did carry over

1985
01:20:23,341 --> 01:20:25,841
with everyone that had an opportunity

1986
01:20:25,883 --> 01:20:27,633
to work with him.

1987
01:20:27,675 --> 01:20:29,508
He was a gentleman.

1988
01:20:29,550 --> 01:20:32,841
That's not just the word, you know what I mean?

1989
01:20:32,883 --> 01:20:34,633
It speaks of his heart.

1990
01:20:34,675 --> 01:20:37,174
It speaks of his integrity.

1991
01:20:37,216 --> 01:20:39,341
It speaks of his honesty.

1992
01:20:39,383 --> 01:20:41,424
What you saw in his films

1993
01:20:41,466 --> 01:20:43,049
is really who he is.

1994
01:20:43,091 --> 01:20:45,383
So when you watch a Patrick Swayze movie,

1995
01:20:45,425 --> 01:20:47,174
you know that's really Patrick Swayze,

1996
01:20:47,216 --> 01:20:48,883
'cause it's just how he worked,

1997
01:20:48,925 --> 01:20:51,674
and it…

1998
01:20:51,716 --> 01:20:52,924
it was contagious.

1999
01:20:52,966 --> 01:20:56,341
What he accomplished in his life

2000
01:20:56,383 --> 01:20:58,841
with the part of our consciousness

2001
01:20:58,883 --> 01:21:00,008
that he occupied…

2002
01:21:00,050 --> 01:21:02,133
very, very, very,

2003
01:21:02,175 --> 01:21:05,300
very, very few people get to accomplish.

2004
01:21:06,716 --> 01:21:10,424
I can't think of anybody today

2005
01:21:10,466 --> 01:21:12,758
that comes close to ticking all of the boxes

2006
01:21:12,800 --> 01:21:15,299
that he did.

2007
01:21:15,341 --> 01:21:16,049
What do you want them

2008
01:21:16,091 --> 01:21:17,091
to know about you?

2009
01:21:17,133 --> 01:21:18,174
That I'm a good actor.

2010
01:21:18,216 --> 01:21:20,091
That I'm someone to be reckoned with.

2011
01:21:20,133 --> 01:21:22,258
That I can give people something through my work

2012
01:21:22,300 --> 01:21:23,549
that they see…

2013
01:21:23,591 --> 01:21:25,424
you know, they make their lives lighter for a moment,

2014
01:21:25,466 --> 01:21:26,508
or inspired,

2015
01:21:26,550 --> 01:21:28,008
or passionate about who they are,

2016
01:21:28,050 --> 01:21:30,216
and feeling good about themselves…

2017
01:21:30,258 --> 01:21:32,091
and I can definitely swing my butt.
