(((Clapping)))) Way to go Scarlet, you really do give a dam.
hardly shuts him up. he makes a strong counterpoint, no?
Orson Welles was simply the finest frozen peas salesman to ever exist and I will fight anyone who says anything to the contrary
In 1958 Welles had a few of his greatest films still ahead of him. As a writer, director, and actor.
This is intriguing as hell. What is this from?
I like her energy.
Off topic but that’s Tony Goldwyn’s grandfather.
Dunno why that would be relevant to anyone, but there ya go.
Nice to see A list celebrities haven’t changed and were just as obnoxious and up their own arses back in the day too.
Sam Goldwyn was a businessman. This is a classic example of the conflict between art and business.
Wtf does it seem like they are in an old film?!
So this was arguing over immaterial topics before Reddit?
Who wishes to disagree?
I’m loving the accents and the smoking.
People actually spoke like that? Thought it was simply something that happened in old timey movies.
she hit him with an AAAaah and all he had was you-you 🤣
I do declare
Sam looks like he could pull off some sort of Popeye role. Just needs the corncob pipe and practice his a-Guh guhguhguh.
I’d hate to be in a conversation directly across from him.
This is so cool, its like one of those youtube debates but 50s style.
I need to see the rest of this.
Edit: also I never thought Vivien Leigh was british, considering she played some of the most iconic american characters in film history.
She’s 45 and looks 60. What is it with older generations aging poorly!
Isn’t this dude the G in mGm?
it’s so fun hearing them have a real discussion in that put on Mid-Atlantic accent they used in the movies
Man’s words sound like jealousy
It is obvious that Sam Goldwyn belongs to the team of those who prefer Jeanne Dielman, 23 quai du Commerce, 1080 Bruxelles, and knows that Citizen Kane is for the commoners.
His partner Louis B. Mayer repeatedly sexually molested Judy Garland starting when she was 16. Look it up. Terrible story. Finally at age 20 she demanded he stop and she said he cried like a little boy. And all these studio execs did the same thing with her and other female actresses. Same scumbags as Harvey Weinstein.
I would have unspeakable rizz with women in the 50-60s. These guys talk like squares.
Vivien is so powerful. Doesn’t back down
Her “Ah” was perfect
I don’t understand the format of this conversation. Was this a zoom meeting? Did they have video conferencing technology back then?
