CHRISTOPHER WALKEN WEIGHS IN ON POLITICS

(VIDEO) Christopher Walken who stars in Man of The Year reveals a politician he could talk to that didn’t have an agenda.

Christopher Walken stars in Man of the Year as the manager of political talk show host Robin Williams who is suddenly thrust into campaigning for his client when an on-air stunt to run for office takes a serious turn.

Walken weighs in on a politician he could engage in conversation with that wouldn’t just be saying his lines.rn

“I play Tom Dobbs’ manager so I’m obviously somebody very familiar with, acquainted with, comfortable in show business which I’ve been in show business my whole life. A feeling about comedy, that comedy is a very good business. I felt I had those things in common with Menken.”

Next Walken plays a different kind of agent, one that works for the CIA in Fade To Black.rn

“I’m never sure when I listen to politicians on television I’m never sure what’s their idea or what’s somebody else’s. But there are obviously people who are very good at it. When I listen to Bill Clinton I end up feeling he’s probably very interesting to talk to when there’s no script. There are people where you suspect don’t really need a script. I think if Robin was a politician he wouldn’t really need a writer.”
