The host of 'Despierta America' interviewed the veteran Hollywood actor and Sebastian Maniscalco as part of the promotion of the movie 'About My Father' and was surprised by one of the protagonists
Alan Tacher interviewed Robert De Niro and Sebastian Maniscalco, who give life to a father and his son in the new movie, 'About My Father', which reminded the driver of 'Despierta America' a lot, the relationship he had with his father , who passed away a couple of years ago.
But once the talk was over, the Mexican was surprised by a question from the two-time Oscar winner. “Where are you from?”, was the question he asked, to which the presenter responded by telling the story of his father, who was from Turkey, while his mother is of Romanian origin.
In addition, he recounted how they both met, as a result of World War II, but stressed that his father had the same type of humor and the way of moving as Robert De Niro's character in the aforementioned film.
During the interview, Sebastian Maniscalco said that he has a very close relationship with his father, with whom he talks every day. In addition, he considered that it is a triumph for him if people come out of seeing his film wanting to talk to a close relative.
On the other hand, De Niro spoke about the advice that our parents give us and that we may not pay much attention to at the moment, but that they are things that we will often remember forever and will help us make decisions.
In addition, Maniscalco, who was also one of the writers of the script, mentioned that from the beginning they thought of the veteran actor for the role of the father in the story, but that they believed that it would be impossible to get him to work on the project and that to his surprise from the first time he read the script he really liked the idea.
