THE HOLLYWOOD REPORTER: WHAT ARE YOUR FAVORITE MOVIES?
O’Reilly: “Godfather” and “Godfather II”; M*A*S*H; the original “The Producers.” I’m a big movie guy.
THE HOLLYWOOD REPORTER: AND FAVORITE ACTORS?
O’Reilly: Clint Eastwood is No. 1. I admire him because he’s a self-made guy. Gene Hackman, because I’ve never seen him give a bad performance. Al Pacino, particularly the early stuff.
THE HOLLYWOOD REPORTER: WHAT’S YOUR FAVORITE EASTWOOD MOVIE?
O’Reilly: “Unforgiven.” That thing was layered 15 different ways. A great film. He deserved the Academy Award for that.
So war hawk Bill O’Reilly’s favorite movies include one of the great anti-war classics and films about how violence destroys people.
Also he has clearly never seen Gene Hackman in “Behind Enemy Lines”.
