Good to see you. Great to see you. I haven't seen you for ages. I know. We have met. We did meet I think. Yes did. It was at west port country playhouse, and you were doing your one-woman show which was so fantastic. Oh, my goodness. Oh. Oh. Would you care to do it now? No, but I -- I got something to talk to you about later on. So now you were nominated for an Oscar for "All the money in the world." You won an Oscar for "Beginners" in 2012. You're brilliant in the new film. My god. You're just 88. What are you doing? What do you make of all of this right now? Well, my mother said that I would be successful, but much later on in life. I didn't know she was talking about the grave. It just see so fortunate that every ten years it's another career. It's incredible. I feel like I'm starting all over again. Sorry about that, but -- You know, Mr. Plummer, your great-grandfather was the Canadian prime minister, and your mother worked as a Dean for Mcgill univsity. You seem like you come from a politically active family. Where did your interest in acting come from? Well, to get away from all of that. No. It was great because my great-grandfather was Canada's third prime minister. It was very -- that's way back in the ancient days, and I grew up very spoiled, and then of course, I had to find the anger that is necessary to be an artist or the struggle that is absolutely essential, and I had to work backwards. It wasn't rags to riches. It was riches to rags. And early in your career, you did a lot of levision, but that was when all television was live television. Which is a different beast. We know that here. Do you have any funny stories of things that just had to play out live? A lot like Robert de Niro. But I -- I did have one. We were doing Robert Montgomery presents, which was a half hour deal. Yes. Elizabeth Montgomery's father. Right. Biblal in force, and I was playing the arch duke Rudolph, and she was doing -- playing my mistress, and we were supposed to meet in the chalet for our suicide pact. We take each other's lives. That was the love thing. So the night of the show, I can't find the entrance anywhere, and I kno she is pacing up and down waiting for me, and I -- I don't know where, and I'm dressed in my full medals and there is N sort of assistant or floor walker or whatever you call it to guide me to the -- and I know she is -- she is pacing up and down and there is no dialogue. She is waiting for me. I finally see a ray of light, and I make for it and I just ducked and I pushed my W through and I had come through the fireplace. Live television. Did you stay in character? How did you save that? Exactly. I didn't. LIV TV. All in full medals. Incredible. This year, whoopi already said you're 88. You became the oldest actor to be nominated for an Oscar for your role in J. Paul Getty if "All the money in the world." You replaced Kevin spacey's role amidst the assault accusations. What was it like to step into someone's role for someone else that had done it? That happens all the time in the theater, but it's in the movie world that never happens. They say, oh, my god. Listen. I have been replaced and I have replaced many times in my career for heaven's sakes. Right. It happens. In the theater, you go on for somebody. You usually call it an understudy. I was not Kevin spacey's understudy. Yeah. That's for sure. I have to ask you about this because you are fantastic in this new movie. "Boundaries," now Vera farmiga plays your daughter, and there are great cameos from Peter fonda, and you play jack jaconi who is a father, grandfather and a little bit of a troublemaker. Did you like playing a little bit of a troublemaker? Oh, I love playing troublemakers. Just like you do. There are so much more interesting than goody two shoes. Yes. And I have never -- I haven't played a dope peddler before. Yes. He sells weed and he has been thrown out of the home that he is living in because he has been selling to other people that live there, weed. So we have a clip. Laura freaks out when she finds out her father and son have been keeping a secret from her. Am I supposed to be doing all this? Take a look. Terribly well. Your mother's lost all rational thought. Don't tell me how to feel. You don't get to tell me anything anymore. I am angry and I'm not burying [ bleep ] For your sake. Henry is fine! There is a cop coming. Get back. Pick up all the weed. Pick it up. Hurry. Just get in the car. Pick up the weed. Pick up the weed. Well, we can't let you leave without bringing up -- I'm supposed to leave now? We aren't letting you leave yet, unless you want to come through the fireplace back there. We have to talk about "The sound of music." That will always be -- for every one of us, it holds a special place. When you look back at it now, do you understand why all of us love it? Yes. Yes, I do, but I put myself aside because I didn't like it terribly much. Me. I didn't enjoy my performance if it could be called a performance. Oh, it was great. Come on. But you're not going to get to hear the rest of this story because I have to say -- we have to say good-bye to Christopher plummer because the time is up, but the new film, "Boundaries," hits -- I know! But the new movie, "Boundaries," hits theaters in New York and L.A. On June 22nd. Go see this. You will not be sorry. Thank you.
