@@StevenAdams-zj8tx I wouldn't say her beauty was *all but gone* as you put it. I was just thinking, she's older now, but still quite beautiful in a more mature way.

He’s clearly gay! He’s just one of those who resents beautiful women because he’d like to be one. Jealousy, that’s what it’s called. I have had the displeasure of meeting gay men like him.

Love how English women can play women from the Southern USA with ease. Ever notice that? It is a language thing. It is tuff of them to play someone from the Midwest...
That dude could not read the room. She laughed at his comments like - the audacity! And a very, very good actress. She was there to be interviewed and you can see the shift in her face when he mentions and compares other actresses.
That's a good actor, not a star, star is the one with the most popularity or charisma, style , or some characteristic that is attractive about them which pulls more and more people to the theatres. In her case it is her lively and innocent eyes that he is describing that sort of makes men believe that she needs them in a heroic way to save her from her distress and be her saviour , same way beauty and the beast was something that appealed to women, made them believe as a saviour, who wanted to save someone like the cursed prince from his distress and sorrow.
She was said to be an articulate and sharp witted lady. Great actress and beauty of her time. He didn't know that he's conversing with a tiger. Also Vivien Leigh was unwell in this interview. ❤
@@garypatterson2055she did but the fact she could put Mr Tynan in his place proves that she was totally with it during this interview.This was an excerpt from a longer discussion about acting between the divine Miss Leigh, the creepy Kenneth Tynan and a film producer whose name escapes me atm. They are all in different locations which would have been disconcerting.
Miss V was very lucid. She took it easy on him because she was known, from what I heard, to put people in their place. She absolutely got him together, though. I LOVE IT!!🎉🎉
@@cherceeYes, she spelled her name with an 'e'. But, to be fair, her name was spelled Vivian with an 'a', obviously, before she hired an agent who didn't like her last name, 'Holeman,' and she not only changed her last name to Leigh, but she also changed the spelling of her first name to include an 'e' instead of an 'a.'
@@MadgeGreen I know her name was originally Vivian. But she legally changed the spelling, so it isn't Vivian any more. Her maiden name was Hartley. 1st husband's middle name was Leigh (she took that for her last name). His last name was Holman (no 'e').
She’s right- a star needs the admiration of men, women and children. Witness Mae West and Marilyn Monroe. Women admired them as much as men did. Perhaps for different reasons 😊
It’s still a silly question, but that was his point. Men being convinced they need her. He’s not saying she needs to work for it or anything, just that her charm and looks and star quality convince men they need her.
I miss when people spoke and looked like this!!! Now it's all "for meeeeeeeeee like iiiiiiiiiaaaaaii like personallyyyyyyyyy like... like I feeeeeeeel like"
@@amafirenze-vi1uhA queen and a woman-hating, condescending (I also think you have it), after listing others, closeted and jealous person. We remember her. My memory had to be jogged to recall him.

I do not understand being deliberately malicious to someone for no reason. People are so peoply....the human condition, as it is.
In some movies it is depicted that men had a separate room where they went to smoke and drink, but during the time when this interview was filmed, almost everyone smoked and it was believed to be healthy. 😂
The guy is Kenneth Tynan who criticised Vivien unjustly all thru out her stage career and only admitted he went too far after her death. Tynan adored Olivier but had no love for Vivien his wife and an equal but diffirent kind of talent!
You're taking her quote out of context. She didnt say men aren't important. She said not only men are important. She said men women and children are important.
She had TB and when filming Elephant Walk in 1953 was hospitalized for a breakdown and had ECT electro shock treatment. She was a beautiful , talented actress , but had major heath issues. I loved her in Gone With The Wind.

Isn’t he an over the top screwball, trying to play Rhett Butler for the world. Where do they find these nut jobs.
She was so restrained. Kept thinking of her line as Scarlett O'Hara, "Oh, if I just wasn't a lady, what wouldn't I tell that varmint!"
Wasn’t he what we call a narcissist?
He got it completely wrong, I'd say a star is someone who can convince everyone in the audience that they need her, not the other way round!
Exactly
I agree with you....he has it so wrong...that's why she laughed ...he is an idiot
I think it can work both ways, depending on the actor.
Narcissist interviewer
he's a jackass
“ Is that what you mean?” She innocently replies while using that very look. She was fabulous!
I always enjoyed Vivien Leigh’s spectacular charm and confidence. She was classy but never let anyone push her around. She was humble and yet possessed the right amount of self respect. RIP queen 👸🏻
Obviously HIS definition of a 'star' is a beautiful woman who needs him.

Gross.
And my definition of a jerk is a man like him.

He's not in the same room with her, so he physically can't look at her
@@Kareragirl ohh he’s not? How do you know lol
If that’s the case then that makes sense but the original comment is still so funny lol

This lady is the star of Gone with the Wind and the recipient of two Academy Awards for best actress.

Vivien Leigh is now my favorite actress. 😂
She was great. I saw gone with the wind in a cinema that does special “classic” screenings and she was phenomenal in it. Very talented
Kenneth Tynan hated her so much, and I’ve never understood why that is.
I think he was in love with her although he knew she was married.
Tynan envied Vivien Leigh. For years he seethed with envy because he longed to be Lady Olivier.
She was perfect in “ Gone with the Wind”. There was no better person to play Scarlett than her.
Omg who IS this guy? He's like a character straight out of an SNL skit.
Chauncey Pooftah Innatailpipe.
he's a clown....
joking, he's a famous journalist from UK. Famous with controversial issues, tho...
He was the status quo then
He was the first person to say fuck on television.
His best William F. Buckley Jr. impression.
Wow. She was cool.❤
Ken got it backwards. A star can convince everyone that they are worthy of love and adoration. They're captivating. That's still the point today.
He didn't fathom how powerful a real lady is when the big screen released her beautiful & authoritive charm from the confines of local community.
Not "she needs me". The audience feels like that they want her. Hes too egoistic to admit that.
The level between Vivien and this narcissistic man is like the golden sun vs a worm
What the hell
She doesn't need men , men needs her
👏👏😊
It’s still a silly question, but that was his point. Men being convinced they need her. He’s not saying she needs to work for it or anything, just that her charm and looks and star quality convince men they need her.
Talk about the patriarchy, wow. Love her answers.
Vivien Leigh was my 7th Grade biography report. She was BAD ASS!!!!!
So delightful ❤❤❤
It seems to me that this guy was closeted gay at the time and trying to convince himself and other women that women are not important.
Good observation
I thought the same thing! Or feeling envious of the women who could get all these men to desire them
Definitely a possibility.
The root of Tynan's envy of Vivien Leigh was his desperate wish to be Larry's Lady Olivier.
Yep, the closeted camp types that have traditionally been very resentful of women.
I miss when people spoke and looked like this!!! Now it's all "for meeeeeeeeee like iiiiiiiiiaaaaaii like personallyyyyyyyyy like... like I feeeeeeeel like"
"I don't think men are that terribly important..." That's MY kind of "feminism."
Vivien wasn't a feminist. Actually one of her greatests friends were Winston Churchill. Feminism is not exclusively about the 'women's rights'.
Said with that “Scarlett O’Hara” facial expression. 🎉
@@arthurmaestrini4350 Exactly.

“ I don’t think men are all that important”. Again, for the folks in the back, and the front.
