Fischer on Cavett
It doesn't seem like the full interview, but here are seven minutes' worth of Bobby Fischer on the Dick Cavett Show, from back in 1971.

Great Video Dennis. I've watched this video (and numerous other Fischer videos) on YouTube. I'm glad you posted this, as it is still very entertaining.

He was a great one that's for sure, I won't comment on his downfall, that has been done enough by many, but his chess was great, and Bobby Fischer Teaches Chess was the first book on chess I ever bought. I just hope the movie on him actually happens and that it is accurate. I know Bobby Fischer Goes to War is the planned title, I hope they do the chess community justice though.
