1991 March Interview to Mike


Entrevista a Michael Landon el invierno de 1990. Mike se nis muestra como siempre fue: asequible, llano, honesto, un poco burlon. Profundamente humano en transición. Buscando el Amor y su capacida de expresar amor. La mejor versión de sí mismo. En su tierra natal USA, fue y es un referente de hombre. Para mi el referente del Eterno Masculino. Gracias Mike por tu proximidad.

El texto de la entrevista en Inglés

Here is one of my most valued interviews: one-on-one with Michael Landon, in his office in Culver City, Calif.

The conversation took place in March of 1991. As you'll hear, Landon is in top form: funny as hell, wise in terms of television and life.

What none of us knew at the time was that he had mere months to live.

On assignment for TV Guide Canada, I flew home to Toronto right after our talk. A few days later, the terrible news broke that Landon had been diagnosed with pancreatic cancer. By July 1, a little over four months later, the 54-year-old actor-writer-director-producer was dead.

Landon had the rare distinction of starring in three consecutive hit TV shows: Bonanza (1959-'73), Little House on the Prairie ( 1974-'82) and Highway to Heaven (1984-'89).  He was shooting a fourth series, US, when I spoke with him, and when we got to Lorne Greene's horsemanship on Bonanza, he had me laughing out loud.

The conversation turns serious towards the end. We talk politics, and Landon voices his disgust at how polarized America had become. He also vents his frustration at political correctness. Landon didn't like where America was headed, and wanted his last series to speak to, "the people along the banks."

Hope you enjoy this visit with Michael Landon, coming to you straight "From The Vault."
