When asked by Johnny Carson if she dressed for women or for men her response was " I dress for women, I undress for men." Johnny's jaw dropped to the floor. I'll never forget seeing her on the show that night. One of the best lines I ever heard delivered. She was beautiful and a great actor.
If getting hired depends on whether or not a woman falls to her knees and opens her mouth when her potential employer opens his robe then certainly a despicable and illegal act has occurred. To characterize such behavior as "men misbehaving" does a grave disservice to the brave women who have come forward at risk of destroying their careers by many labeled "difficult" by men in power. The interviewer should have asked follow-up questions because Ms Dickenson has also been quoted as saying that she felt exploited by the inclusion of so many unnecessary shower scenes in Police Woman.
@@virginiamorrow4097 I agree. That was a missed opportunity. I've lost respect for this actress for refusing to support other brave women who've spoken out.
I don't think she's an inspiration to women at all. I was shocked to hear her say the me too movement has blown everything out of proportion. Other places, she admits to feeling exploited. Her policewoman series was a joke -- the real harassment that women endured on the police force (and still do) was not even mentioned.
@@patricias5122 Look, being a lady policeman is a mighty tough job so please don't even attempt it if you cannot even seriously dismiss non-gentlemen cops.
Actresses nowadays could learn a lot of lessons from Angie. Her common sense and honesty ... her thoughtfulness .. her strength. I agree, Angie,, I hope you never die.
90 years old now, and STILL looks fantastic!! She's outlived most of her co-stars, and is still lively, although not acting anymore. God Bless this lady!
So agree. She is and has been a natural, graceful beauty through all stages of her life. Geez, would love to age as gracefully as she has...want to look like she does now when I'm 60!
Where has the time gone? I can't believe she is nearly 90's. She always gives wonderful interviews. I think it would be a true thrill to know her. Another boundry breaking tough lady!
Angie Dickinson a gorgeous lady and wonderful actress. I had never known her daughter had taken her own life, so very sad. At 87 yrs. young, she still speaks her own mind...good for her.
Like the way she talks about chemistry between actors without it necessarily turning into an affair and always enjoyed her work. Have a friend who talked to her at a fan event and said she had only good things to say about the actors they discussed. Class+down to earth+beautiful. Wow!
Of all the celebrities I've had people compare me to, Barbara Mandrell, Stevie Nicks, Dolly Parton, etc., I was only ever truly flattered when a guy I dated said he thought I looked like Angie. And now, so many years later, I appreciate the compliment even more. Angie Dickinson is an awesome lady.
How nice to see Angie. I never thought she was a great actress but she certainly still has charisma and her honesty in this interview is totally refreshing. Such a positive person, especially with losing her only child.
@wrench 22 I understand what you are saying! I just wish these stars would stop playing games and tell the truth for once! It's not like she is working or has a movie deal to protect!
fredrika27 I don’t see it so much as being ‘in denial’ but as being discrete about her relationships. She always seemed to be a tough lady who never saw herself as a victim. She dated Frank Sinatra and was one of the few honorary women members of the Rat Pack, along with Shirley MacLaine, so I don’t think anyone would have messed with either of these ladies or Frank might have made a phone call...
@@lindashelley3635 That's my point! If Angie got preferential treatment, then she should admit it. With some of the most notorious abusers in jail or dead, these women should speak up so others who are walking in their footsteps understand who to be careful around and how to conduct themselves. Yes, it isn't her role to be everyone's mentor, but she is an accomplice to the establishment's silence and decades' long abuse. As far as I can see, by being silent, one is allowing the abuse to continue. I lose respect for such people. It's her right as an individual to do what is in her best interest. That said, she shouldn't be upset when people call her on it and say that she is a hypocrite and not a champion of women! The same with Lindsay Wagner. A person is at the top of the food chain and has many good works, but denies the ills which are happening around her! I understand everyone is not a fighter or wants to be in the public eye. However, such inaction continues the cycle of abuse. People in the entertainment industry deserve better!
fredrika27 I understand what you’re saying, but maybe Angie is at an age now where she just wants to live out her days in peace and quiet and not to become embroiled in any modern controversy. After all, whatever may have happened (or not happened) to her personally would have been more than half a century ago, and she may feel that ‘what’s done is done’, that nothing can change it now and so there’s no point in going over ancient history. As an older woman myself, I understand that attitude, though whilst never having been even an aspiring famous actress but just an ordinary ‘mere mortal’ I obviously never had any of those particular ‘casting couch’ experiences. But still, I’m sure many of us now in our 70s and 80s have had embarrassing, or possibly even mortifying, moments in our lives that we would rather forget, and certainly not wish to rehash on the public stage. Angie seems to be a very private lady, and I feel she should be afforded the right to live out her life in quiet and peaceful dignity.
I wish Angie was my neighbor so we could hang out. She's one of the biggest influences of my life. She spoke her mind and had a great sense of self in a time when women were very controlled and dominated, in the 60s mostly. She looks fabulous and her wit is extreme. Such a great lady. I hope she's never lonely.
Women were never controlled and dominated. It is just that your kind wanted to take the pants away from men and do their jobs . To be blunt you took their balls away and now look at men today. Now men are getting into women's team sports and all of sudden women are screaming that they don't want men competing with them. Any other time women say they can do anything men can do and there is no difference between men and women. You can't have it both ways bit*ches. Also, I'm a woman and happy to be one.
This is the most open I have seen Angie Dickinson in an interview. And still she hides a lot of mystery. She is and always has been a very intriguing woman.
I remember staying up with my mom & couldnt wait to watch “Police woman” starring Angie Dickensen. I would say to myself “ Oh, this is how to act as a adult? U know, tough & rough around the edges…Love u still Angie, u go girl!
Angie comes from a generation before social media and smart phones; where people were interesting, engaging, and charismatic, and had captivating lives and fascinating stories. I guess we'll never quite see her type ever again. She looks great for her age, and I'm so glad she hasn't been pulled, plumped and paralyzed by plastic surgery and Botox!
Most women did not live the fascinating lives that film stars like Ms Dickensen did. They were either homemakers who rarely had anyone other than the kids to talk to or, if single, working at low-paying pink ghetto jobs or cleaning houses if poor and uneducated. The good paying jobs were "only men need apply" which is why even brilliant women who managed to get into law school and graduated at the top of their class could only find jobs as legal secretaries. The "open robe" comment is a reference to Harvey Weinstein who is in prison because both the men and women on the jury (who "weren't there" either ) put him there. I don't fault Ms Dickensen for her "an open robe isn't rape" comment even though it disparages the brave actresses who came forward about Harvey W at the risk of being labeled "difficult" which is poison in the film industry, I fault the interviewer who either didn't ask follow-up questions or the editor who edited them out if they were asked
She is one of my most favorite actresses ever . Seeing this video makes me realize how beautiful she was and to this day how beautiful she is inside and out ! She always had inner beauty.
I agree but she will not lie. She either shares or she won't. She's so quick with her responses. A real sharp lady. She's a great example, she slams no one, even those who did her wrong. CLASS !!!!!!!!!!!!!
@@jmea01 Absolutely. And I'm amazed that her mind is still so nimble. Imagine what she must have been like 50 years ago. I wouldn't want to play poker against her.
Angie was everything. Such an icon in every possible level. She was an inspiration. An aspiration. Once, in Palm Beach while working, someone said Angie Dickinson was in the store, but had walked out onto Worth Ave. I dropped everything and ran to track her down. Once I spotted her and found the courage to speak, she was so delighted that someone recognized her. I immediately gushed in disbelief. I said but you are such a legend and I risked being fired to see you in person. She reached out and with a tear in her eye said I made her day. It was the greatest event I can remember. I recall it often. What a mesmerizing personality and lady. Full on lady, dame, broad. Angie is everything.
I still remember this exchange on _The Tonight Show_ . Johnny: Do you dress for men or dress for women? Angie: I dress for women and I undress for men.
She was always the most pleasant humouous guest on The Tonight Show. I think her and Johnny had a brief thing I saw her signing interviews at a convention in the 90s in LV. She had s huge line, but seemed so involved in talking with her fans.
Dammit, I positively adore this woman!! I was in elementary school when Police Woman was on, and I can attest to the huge impact Sgt. Pepper Anderson had on young girls my age. We had excellent female role models at that time; Lynda Carter as Wonder Woman, Lyndsay Wagner as The Bionic Woman, and Miss Angie Dickinson as Sgt. Pepper Anderson. From one gal to another, you're one beautiful badass, Miss Dickinson.

When I first saw her in this interview, I must admit I was shocked by her appearance. That's bc I'm so used to women in Hollywood at her age still getting plastic surgery and facelifts. The strength and conviction in Angie to go Au Natural, I applaud her for it !
Thank you for making this clear... she's aged beautifully, and who wouldn't want to be compared to her? She's simply an awesome example of a classy woman! 💜
I just rewatched this interview after having viewed it in 2020. I have a lot of respect for Angie Dickinson, and I love some of her responses to Mo Rocca's questions. She is a treasure and Mo's rapport with her was evident.
Yep, she proved with that statement that she wasn't just another Hollyweird shill, but can think for herself. She observed that the MeToo movement did/does more harm than good for the world just like most initiatives sponsored by the mainstream media and Hollywood elites. Incidentally Rose McGowan who founded the movement to her credit also disowned it when she saw it being corrupted and weaponized. I bet Angie doesn't realize it or maybe she does by her statement when working with John Wayne that she shared more in common with his politics than she did with her parents. I bet she was the best mother her daughter Nikki could've had for her condition, but too bad it ended sadly.
I really like her but truly disagree with her about the me too movement. Millions of women are abused and raped, and what women wear, say a mini skirt, is often used by men (and some women) to justify this cruel and debasing act. It is about power and thank God and country and the men and women who fight against the debasement of women in jobs and at home. Look at what is happening in Afghanistan, where women are bereft of education and have to hide all of their bodies and faces because men cannot control themselves so blame women. Thank God we are better than that, but have a long way to go.
I'm 53 and was too young to appreciate Police Woman the first time in the 70's. I'm working through the dvds and have to say its one hell of a top quality cop program. She's all woman and one of Gods gift to men ! (respectfully) 🙂
Yes I notice she was very interesting in het expressing what she believes and not what is popular to believe and makes us think little more what is truly going on with some but not with everyone
No one claimed an open robe is rape. And that's not what the Me Too movement is about. It's about powerful people using their power over a person's career opportunities to get their own sexual needs met--and often also using intimidation tactics to keep their victims from reporting their abuse. And yes, it's been going on for forever, but that doesn't make it okay.
@@MicheleEngel - she doesn't understand what it is about. Thanks for your comment. I was wondering if anyone was comment about her opinion on the me too movement.
I met burt and their daughter on Kauai just walking the beach,I called them at home and Angie answered,she was just a regular mom and I'll never forget her wonderful voice.
Interesting story, but I'm wondering how it came about that you asked Burt Bacharach for his home phone number and that he actually gave it to you after briefly meeting you on the beach? Could you elaborate? What did you and Angie talk about when she answered?
She has such a sense of humor about her former sexy self . She knew she was hot but had a sense that it was temporary . It’s the way she talked , moved , was sensual to reach your mind and heart rather than being perfect physically .She has enough class to keep secret secret honoring what was private private . I think everyone meets a person that they could see themselves with if they were single when they are taken . I think Angie feels that way about a lot of the leading men she worked with
When the Supreme Court nominee was asked, "What is a woman?" She could have answered truthfully: Angie Dickensen. You don't need to know anything else.
My Dad from Kulm North Dakota, farm still there, German ancestry, came to CA since a teen. Building contractor. Age 96 passed. Angie, you are still wonderful!! God in charge of world and this life short. You will live for eternity. God bless.
Almost 50 years ago I remember watching her in police woman.I thought that she was the hottest woman on earth.I can still picture her walking down those steps in high heels in the intro.I can’t believe how much time has passed.Thank you Angie for all the great movies and memories.
One of my all time favorites. Class, Sexiness, intelligence and a wicked sense of humor! Just a true woman's woman and at the same time one of the boys. She looks great.
I believe that she has had one of the most thrilling lives out of many people in Hollywood. She knew everybody and was in everything. She still looks great as well!
Joy Harrison yes , Burt would have nothing to do with Nikki and once she was born didn’t have much to do with Angie either . Burt writes love songs but in reality doesn’t understand the reality of love , only the. Dream if it . Angie wentvto wirk on police woman to pay for around the clock care for Nikki . Burt is a child mentally but she dies not disparage him even though she has plenty of reason to
@@lenwelch2195 Quite a number of these musical geniuses don't make good husbands. Christie Brinkley mentioned how she tried everything to make marriage work with Billy Joel but he just wasn't the type that should be married. Many geniuses are eccentric and just don't know how to be loving and communicative in a marriage. They seem cold and more of the loner type.
No Hollywood actor who lives long enough is afraid to say what he or she believes. Once they're out of the game, what are they going to do? Cancel them?
Angie should be proud of her work on Police Woman. I've several female friends who joined the force stating Angie Dickinson as a role model and inspiration. Even decades later, her influence is still felt. She's so down to earth and I feel bad she never really found the right man. But what a life !
At the age of 21 and right out of the Marine Corps I met this beautiful woman while working at Warner Brothers in Burbank, CA. I was a runner on the lot and told to take something over to Stage 12… Open the door a bump into Ms Dickinson “boing” instant love… Unfortunately, it was one sided 😔 Turned out what I ran over was for her, so I had to talk to her… What a beautiful lady and I mean lady who wasn’t full of herself…. Thank you Ms Dickinson and thanks for calling me a looker…. 😏
outstanding interview with angie's being honest, no holds barred, speaking from her heart, etc. i always admired angie...her beauty, brain, wits, lifelong friendships, nd gorgeous figure etc. thanks for all the great movies you made with the cream of the crop actors. here's to good health and happiness forever. betty gordon, iowa senior turning 74 on 3-24,

Speaking as a man, the looks go a long way as well. I had no idea when I watched Police Woman in junior high and though she was hot that she was actually in her mid 40s!
I LOVE this woman - I always have. She is still so beautiful and her laugh is iconic! She has the most hearty, fun-filled laugh. I agree, I would love to sit with her and hear all the stories from this "lucky b". She is an American treasure!
Nice touch at 8:22 they used the Burt Bacharach song, "Nikki" (written for her) for that segment. People of my age will remember that song being re-worked as the music package for the ABC Movie of the Week.
What a charming, independent lady! I could have watched another hour! Smart, sensible, forthright. Very progressive, contemporary, and still so beautiful!
She helped a young boy become facinated with legs and langerie! 😊 I already had facination for long legs thanks to British TV celebrity called Anita Harris. Then just as I enter my teens...Angie! Innocent happy days! 😆

She was always the most pleasant humouous guest on The Tonight Show. I think her and Johnny had a brief thing I saw her signing interviews at a convention in the 90s in LV. She had s huge line, but seemed so involved in talking with her fans.
great!!
JohnnyM Fan: Yes, I read a few times that she and Carson had a fling.
What a moving interview. She was the epitome of cool !
The "epitomy" of cool.
Depends which side of the pond you're from.
OMG!!! SHE'S A NATIONAL TREASURE!!! WE LOVE YOU, ANGIE!!!💕💕💕
I. Couldn't. Hav. Said. That. Better. 🤟
Ms. Dickinson is still a lovely lady, May GOD continue to bless you ( her) !!!
She's marvelous! Beautiful and smart and still as sharp as a tack and still going strong.
Dammit, I positively adore this woman!! I was in elementary school when Police Woman was on, and I can attest to the huge impact Sgt. Pepper Anderson had on young girls my age. We had excellent female role models at that time; Lynda Carter as Wonder Woman, Lyndsay Wagner as The Bionic Woman, and Miss Angie Dickinson as Sgt. Pepper Anderson. From one gal to another, you're one beautiful badass, Miss Dickinson.

She was absolutely stunning when she was in Police Woman.
I saw her once in a post office in Los Angeles in the early 1980’s. She was stunning looking.
When I first saw her in this interview, I must admit I was shocked by her appearance.
That's bc I'm so used to women in Hollywood at her age still getting plastic surgery and facelifts.
The strength and conviction in Angie to go Au Natural, I applaud her for it !
And she looks better then all of them.
Au Natural ?????
Thank you for making this clear... she's aged beautifully, and who wouldn't want to be compared to her? She's simply an awesome example of a classy woman! 💜
They could have combed her hair
I just rewatched this interview after having viewed it in 2020. I have a lot of respect for Angie Dickinson, and I love some of her responses to Mo Rocca's questions. She is a treasure and Mo's rapport with her was evident.
She was one of my idols! What man wouldn't have been in love with this woman???? She was gorgeous then, and still gorgeous (inside and out).
Hello, How are you?
I watched this show every time it came on. I loved Angie Dickinson, she was a true actor at it's best. She was graceful, a lady and a great actor.
Always loved her & my favorite role was Police Woman...This interview made me an even bigger fan. RIP Nikki
Aww,She’s classy & precious.I’ve missed her and glad to know she’s alive.Very nice interview.I wish her a long and healthy life❤️❤️❤️
Angie was a true beauty and I love her honesty.
Hello Dear, How are you?
Such a terrific interview - and what a fantastic woman. Wow. :)
She's still beautiful! It comes from within.
shes so cool
Even in her 80s she is a stunning woman, Angie brought class to the TV shows.
This is a truly honest woman. Every childhood boy had a crush on this beauty. “Open robe is not a rape!” Speaks volumes from a woman with integrity.
Yep, she proved with that statement that she wasn't just another Hollyweird shill, but can think for herself. She observed that the MeToo movement did/does more harm than good for the world just like most initiatives sponsored by the mainstream media and Hollywood elites. Incidentally Rose McGowan who founded the movement to her credit also disowned it when she saw it being corrupted and weaponized. I bet Angie doesn't realize it or maybe she does by her statement when working with John Wayne that she shared more in common with his politics than she did with her parents. I bet she was the best mother her daughter Nikki could've had for her condition, but too bad it ended sadly.
I really like her but truly disagree with her about the me too movement. Millions of women are abused and raped, and what women wear, say a mini skirt, is often used by men (and some women) to justify this cruel and debasing act. It is about power and thank God and country and the men and women who fight against the debasement of women in jobs and at home. Look at what is happening in Afghanistan, where women are bereft of education and have to hide all of their bodies and faces because men cannot control themselves so blame women. Thank God we are better than that, but have a long way to go.
You ain't kiddin'...used to watch Police Woman as a 12 yr old and was beside myself !
@@lindas.martin2806Well said. I don't know why she said "wearing a robe isn't rape.". Who said it was?
@@lindas.martin2806 Absolutely; well put.
I'm 53 and was too young to appreciate Police Woman the first time in the 70's. I'm working through the dvds and have to say its one hell of a top quality cop program. She's all woman and one of Gods gift to men ! (respectfully) 🙂
An absolute class act. Today's actresses could learn a lot from her. But they won't.
A true star in every sense of the word!
Back in the days when talent and class was required to become famous.
She was my first female idol. To see a woman doing a so called man's job was incredible! Thank you, Angie Dickinson!
Hello Dear, How are you?
She was really great in Police Woman. I enjoyed every movie she was ever in. Her mind is still sharp as a tack.
the ending was marvelous.
Ms. Dickenson is in her late 80’s & still going strong. Bless you Angie!
she spoke the truth about the me too movement...it is not being used the right way...nice of her to publicly say so.
Yes I notice she was very interesting in het expressing what she believes and not what is popular to believe and makes us think little more what is truly going on with some but not with everyone
No one claimed an open robe is rape. And that's not what the Me Too movement is about. It's about powerful people using their power over a person's career opportunities to get their own sexual needs met--and often also using intimidation tactics to keep their victims from reporting their abuse. And yes, it's been going on for forever, but that doesn't make it okay.
@@MicheleEngel - she doesn't understand what it is about. Thanks for your comment. I was wondering if anyone was comment about her opinion on the me too movement.
@@paulaguenon1660 That's exactly what I was thinking: She doesn't get it.
Michele Engel she gets it. She’s just much tougher than all the “victims” of today. She’d have kicked Harvey in the nuts and kept going.
Great and touching interview with Angie Dickinson
@me myself I bet you're a riot at parties.
Hello, How are you?
I met burt and their daughter on Kauai just walking the beach,I called them at home and Angie answered,she was just a regular mom and I'll never forget her wonderful voice.
Interesting story, but I'm wondering how it came about that you asked Burt Bacharach for his home phone number and that he actually gave it to you after briefly meeting you on the beach? Could you elaborate? What did you and Angie talk about when she answered?
Wow. What a amazing interview. Thank you Mo! Miss Angie is the best, classy, I cried on the last quote
I will always remember her sitting on the tonight show couch flirting with johnny carson. It was priceless!
Beautiful intelligent woman that exudes sexuality. Always has.
She has such a sense of humor about her former sexy self . She knew she was hot but had a sense that it was temporary . It’s the way she talked , moved , was sensual to reach your mind and heart rather than being perfect physically .She has enough class to keep secret secret honoring what was private private . I think everyone meets a person that they could see themselves with if they were single when they are taken . I think Angie feels that way about a lot of the leading men she worked with
When the Supreme
Court nominee was asked, "What is a woman?"
She could have answered truthfully: Angie Dickensen.
You don't need to know anything else.
👍
Does she sit down to pee?😗
My Dad from Kulm North Dakota, farm still there, German ancestry, came to CA since a teen. Building contractor. Age 96 passed. Angie, you are still wonderful!!
God in charge of world and this life short.
You will live for eternity. God bless.
What a beautiful person inside and out, how could you not love her so honest and caring. caring .
Time is the great leveler
She played the hand given her with great style and aplomb
“Viva Angie Dickinson”
Almost 50 years ago I remember watching her in police woman.I thought that she was the hottest woman on earth.I can still picture her walking down those steps in high heels in the intro.I can’t believe how much time has passed.Thank you Angie for all the great movies and memories.
Very brave to live alone at her age, smart, vibrant, a beautiful lady
I simply love Angie Dickinson, she's the greatest. I love WHO she is, she's dead honest and I respect that.
What a classy lady. People can take some lessons from her, even just from this interview. Glad she did this interview.
One of my all time favorites. Class, Sexiness, intelligence and a wicked sense of humor! Just a true woman's woman and at the same time one of the boys. She looks great.
I believe that she has had one of the most thrilling lives out of many people in Hollywood. She knew everybody and was in everything. She still looks great as well!
This was revealing. I didn't know she had a special need daughter who committed suicide. I like her honesty.
She also was the caretaker for one of her sisters who had Alzheimer's Disease. She's had more than her share of heartache.
@@MrVidaeverdade ,and still Standing!
@@MrVidaeverdade She's a strong lady. Some of us do get more than our fair share of heartaches. I can attest to that.
Joy Harrison yes , Burt would have nothing to do with Nikki and once she was born didn’t have much to do with Angie either . Burt writes love songs but in reality doesn’t understand the reality of love , only the. Dream if it . Angie wentvto wirk on police woman to pay for around the clock care for Nikki . Burt is a child mentally but she dies not disparage him even though she has plenty of reason to
@@lenwelch2195 Quite a number of these musical geniuses don't make good husbands. Christie Brinkley mentioned how she tried everything to make marriage work with Billy Joel but he just wasn't the type that should be married. Many geniuses are eccentric and just don't know how to be loving and communicative in a marriage. They seem cold and more of the loner type.
I can watch her and listen to her all day! She is wise. Love, love, love her.
This is two years old, love Ms. Dickinson. She was a trailblazer and a beauty!
Love her... and I love she’s not afraid to say what she’s believes, what a classy beautiful woman 💞✨💞
My favorite Angie Dickenson movie has to be Point Blank from 1967 with Lee Marvin.
No Hollywood actor who lives long enough is afraid to say what he or she believes. Once they're out of the game, what are they going to do? Cancel them?
Beautiful and classy
@@sharonnewton1195 Hello Dear, How are you?
My Dad had the biggest crush on her as I'm sure most men did. I would love to read her book someday! She knew everybody!
She is amazing ❤️ thank you for this interview
Hello Dear, How are you?
Angie should be proud of her work on Police Woman.
I've several female friends who joined the force stating Angie Dickinson as a role model and inspiration.
Even decades later, her influence is still felt.
She's so down to earth and I feel bad she never really found the right man.
But what a life !
At the age of 21 and right out of the Marine Corps I met this beautiful woman while working at Warner Brothers in Burbank, CA. I was a runner on the lot and told to take something over to Stage 12… Open the door a bump into Ms Dickinson “boing” instant love… Unfortunately, it was one sided 😔 Turned out what I ran over was for her, so I had to talk to her… What a beautiful lady and I mean lady who wasn’t full of herself…. Thank you Ms Dickinson and thanks for calling me a looker…. 😏
Frank Sinatra was asked who was the greatest in bed...without hesitation he answered "Angie". Dean Martin agreed. True story.
A gentleman would never say such a thing....
Barrie Hellon-Warwick IKR??
Great interview. Angie actually became friends with John Wayne and is still friends with his son producer Michael Wayne's family.
She should do a podcast or a Ted Talk. She has so much to offer.
Seriously!
outstanding interview with angie's being honest, no holds barred, speaking from her heart, etc.
i always admired angie...her beauty, brain, wits, lifelong friendships, nd gorgeous figure etc.
thanks for all the great movies you made with the cream of the crop actors. here's to good health and happiness forever.
betty gordon, iowa senior turning 74 on 3-24,
THIS IS YOUR LIFE surprised angie with a show about her bringing in family/friends, etc.
she surprised them all, SHE WALKED OFF STAGE NOT hearing anything from the guests they brought on. she has a lot of GUTS to have done this.
a 1st for this tv program!! betty gordon, iowa fan
i hope I don't live to be 87 but if do I wanna look as good as she does, she looks amazing! great interview, amazing lady!
Not particularly her looks, it’s her ways that make her sexy. She has a certain charm. ❤️
The whole package - a rarity.
Well she ain't exactly chopped liver.
Speaking as a man, the looks go a long way as well. I had no idea when I watched Police Woman in junior high and though she was hot that she was actually in her mid 40s!
Hello , How are you?
Angie you are still beautiful 🤩
Barbara Van Dyk I so agree!
I know, right? I LOVE that she has not ruined her face like too many actresses do. Angie is still beautiful, and happy.
@@stevevalkos6308 NEVER HEARD ANYTHING BAD ABOUT HER.
I LOVE this woman - I always have. She is still so beautiful and her laugh is iconic! She has the most hearty, fun-filled laugh. I agree, I would love to sit with her and hear all the stories from this "lucky b". She is an American treasure!
I grew up watching Angie Dickinson.Thanks, for the interview!
Thank you Mo!
This was a wonderful interview
Nice job
Thank you for this. Love seeing Angie again!
Love her!! As my dad used to say " now that's a good looking woman"
Angie Dickinson 101 learn ladies this is a real lady beautiful !
Hello Dear , How are you?
I love this woman. Grew up with her films and tv shows and I’m so so happy I have an autographed photo.
Nice touch at 8:22 they used the Burt Bacharach song, "Nikki" (written for her) for that segment. People of my age will remember that song being re-worked as the music package for the ABC Movie of the Week.
One of the sexiest women ever 🌟❤
Yes Indeed
she's pretty boss
Angie Dickinson is one of the classiest women around!
Hello, How are you?
Hello, How are you?
Had the biggest crush on her as a kid. She was just pure beauty
What a charming, independent lady! I could have watched another hour! Smart, sensible, forthright. Very progressive, contemporary, and still so beautiful!
Real and grounded!!!! I didn’t know they had that in Hollywood! Beautiful lady.
I grew up with Angie on the screen. Could not get enough of her, loved everything about her. Best legs in Hollywood.
She helped a young boy become facinated with legs and langerie! 😊
I already had facination for long legs thanks to British TV celebrity called Anita Harris.
Then just as I enter my teens...Angie!
Innocent happy days! 😆
