@ 03:56 – she interrupts him as he is saying the word respect!
What is Charlie Rose doing there? What happened to his show?
(I don't have TV, so I have no idea.)

Chiwetel Ejiofor!! 🙂 an igbo guy…. Chaii Nwokeoma, nwanne mmadu.lolzz… Awesome and blessed you are!! hard work pays!!!!
they tried it with that "Chewy" business
By the way, not to cast any type of shadow over either Chiwetel or Lupita [they are brilliant actors], but neither Chiwetel or Lupita are descendants of slaves. They are well-to-do Africans, well, Chiwetel is British, but of Nigerian ancestry. It might have been harder for an African-American actor to play the role knowing that his ancestors might have suffered like this.
Considering how Hollywood actors have through out the years changed their names to sexy sounding, catchy names, Chitwetel has kept his very difficult name to remember and he has become famous with that name.
He looks and sounds like Lee from the walking dead :O
He did fantastic in his role on 12 Years.
I haven't seen it yet..but with all the rave reviews and his Golden Globe Awards and possibly Oscar candidate I think he did an excellent job
Gale asks "Can we call you Chewy?" GEEZ. We Americans cheapen everything! Love Mr. Ejiofor.
It would be nice if the interviewers found out how to pronounce his last name before having him on.
If 12 years a slave does not sweep the oscars, there is no justice. The film is well done. The acting is amazing.
fuck chiwetel ejiofor and steve McQueen nothing but a bunch of uncle tom and I hope they burn in hell for making that piece of shit film it was offensive and I was offended and Lord, I pray that this mothafucka never win a Oscar and I hope this movie ruin chiwetel's career!
