There is very little video footage of Chesterton and apparently only about 25 minutes of audio. Previously I had put up a post with much of this same material: Hear the Voice of the Great G.K. Chesterton. The virtual movies (2nd and 4th links) are fun. This guy takes a photo of Chesterton and makes it look like a movie, in conjunction with actual audio recordings.

STUDENT - Mr. Chesterton, since you are one of the foremost crusaders in the modern world of letters, we wish to adopt you into the humble ranks of the Holy Cross Crusaders.
GKC-I have to thank you for this very great honour and I do so with all my heart. I can only say that I am not much of a crusader but at least I am not a Mohammedan and many people will testify to the fact. I should like to take this opportunity of thanking you all for your enormous kindness, especially Father Earl for having received me so hospitably today.
I keep the entire works of G.K. Chesterton on my Kindle all the time. He is a great read and very ahead of his time in the early 20th century. I highly recommend the Father Brown stories.
Cool. Chesterton is one of my favorite authors, having been introduced to him through the writings of C.S. Lewis.
I love GK Chesterton! Brilliant mind based on the Rock (philosophically speaking.)
