They Don't MAKE CLASSY STARS LIKE THIS ANYMORE!!! WELL DRESSED AND ELEGANT. RAUNCHY AND SUBTLENESS!!! THE CLOTHES THAT THEY WORE ARE AGELESS AND STILL IN STYLE....TRUE REFINEMENT!!!
We don't know much about Cleopatra or Helen of Troy, but here we have Tallulah and a young Milton Berle. How extraordinary to see them brought back to life!
This is a delightful piece of retro TV. She was the Carol Burnett of her time. Albeit a more villainous one. Carol couldn't help that-- she was simply too adorable.
[opens fridge] "There's no hot water". I wonder, could it be that she wrote her own sketches? I wouldn't be surprised, she was a great sense of comedy. I would never had seen this wasn't it for dahhling TH-cam....
@@seethevolcane Ah!' They must have had a real click. In the gags she described herself. Or, her stage image. I don't know how she was private. But a mousey little housewife she can't have been. Anyway, she was an excellent comedienne in prersentation. That smoked and boozed voice helped, of course. It's too long ago that I saw her in Life Boat, but I'm sure there she had dialogue zingers. A great one for blase femme fatale typecasting she was. These days we call that a spoiled biatch. Strong women (Dorothy in Golden Girls) with a sense of muscled humor; I love it.
Tallulah did comedy so well, though she's best known for _Lifeboat_ , and on Broadway, _The Little Foxes_ , I suppose. What a versatile performer. Who would have expected this from the daughter of a Speaker of the House? Is there a Tallulah Pelosi we don't know about?
"Didn't I see you shave on The Cavalcade of Sports?", has got to be one of the best lines I've heard. They are loving each other. I've never seen her smile so much as in this skit.
The 28 year olds writing for today's television couldn't touch this stuff if their lives depended on it. 1:18 "Ah Tallulah, you've got a great delivery....where'd you park your truck?"
Have you seen her 1953 "Person To Person" with Edward R. Murrow? I saw it for the first time the other day which led me to this great post and others. I wish she had done more television, yet grateful for what she did. I still say she was cheated out of a best actress nomination for "Die Die My Darling" 😄
@@TONEBHURT I saw it a long time ago but person who uploaded it deleted it. And I agree ! Miss Bankhead deserve so much more than what she got. There’s an impersonator name Charles Pierce,(the only person that should have played tallulah)
Messed up the middle of the song, but her comedic timing was on point. Great to hear her voice.
watched this 10 times😭
On my 2nd time lol.
Thats One TOUGH BROAD
*SO* Pretty,!🎨 ☺️😊😍😊☺️😊😊😊 *..Tallulah.. ...not milton .. Lol😎😜

That voice is sublime ...she was a one off ..and a true ally to the gays ..who adored her ....the girls are out tonight
Louie The Lilac and The Black Widow Together!!! Dial the Batphone and call Batman!!!
This a gem
Jeepers, look at those huge shoulders on Talulah. Milton Berle also dressed in drag back when I was a kid.

The young Neil Simon did some material for her.

Meravigliosa

We dined with friends We dined alone A tenor sang No baritone Oh yes i remember it well... Love it ....
Doesn't Milton sing well... wonderful to see them together having fun...thanks
Those great days were my childhood growing up watching cool movies and TV shows like this
Kvng, I'm impressed with your great taste.
She’s 41? Lordy
No it was a joke lol. She was in her 50s. She was born in 1902. And this was filmed between 1953-1955
Right 😂, she was a chain smoker and lover her bourbon, but she was exquisite.
Tallulah’s and Hermoine Gingold’s voices sound very similar in this song.
Fabulous! Do you know what year is this is from?
I believe it’s either 1953 and 1955
@@kvngvuggottoa7139 thanks! 🖤🤍🎞
There will never be another Tallulah! Thanks for posting!

I only discovered Tallulah recently. Where were they hiding her? She is a treasure.
She truly is a treasure 👏👏Tallulah Bankhead was also the inspiration foe Cruella Deville. Tallulah is my favorite broadway actress ever💝💝
She was a big deal back in the day. A very big deal.
@@kvngvuggottoa7139 ... I think this was in 1952. At least that's when the Milton Berle show was on TV.

I completely agree 👏
You're a darling for sharing this!!
