George Clooney remembered an awkward moment he had said happened at the play in August Wilson’s Fence.

The late James Earl Jones played Troy Maxson, but he stopped his performance in the middle due to excessive talk from an audience member.

The person who was an old lady happened to be sitting next to the Academy winner. “I sit next to two old people talking all the time,” he said on Variety’s Actors on actors with his fellow actor Patti Lupone.

He continued, “and James is right at the end of the stage. He stands there and he is doing some loneliness and the people next to me are like ‘what did he say?’ ‘He said he’s mad because his son…’ ‘

But what found George in the middle of this meeting was the darkness when he told James “just stared” out into the audience, “but he stare at me. Because he can’t see it well enough.

“And they just keep talking. And he just in the middle of the show goes, ‘I don’t appreciate that shit.’ And I literally pointed to this old lady.
