In this deeply candid and unforgettable episode of Still Here Hollywood, host Steve Kmetko welcomes Bronson Pinchot, the instantly iconic star of Beverly Hills Cop and Perfect Strangers. Bronson recounts his journey from poverty and an abusive childhood—surviving what he calls “the most enthusiastic and ingenious abuser you can imagine”—to sudden stardom after improvising the role of Serge, the flamboyant art gallery clerk in Beverly Hills Cop, opposite Eddie Murphy. Pinchot shares how that single scene, inspired by a real Israeli makeup artist, turned him into a "same-day sensation." With emotional depth and razor-sharp wit, Bronson opens up about navigating fame, finding healing through storytelling, and staying grounded through a turbulent rise in Hollywood. A must-watch interview optimized for fans of 80s film legends, raw celebrity stories, and unforgettable Hollywood transformations. Show Credits
