    looking at this film makes you realize why Jackie was so remarkable in USA history, she was so young when she became first lady,that brought fresh air to the White House.Of course she was elegant and charming,her way of speaking and her style reflects it perfectly, but what’s more interesting is how intelligent and informed she was,hearing her talk about the history of every detail in the White House proves how interested she was,also she did not only new a lot of USA history but before going to any official trip she would research for information and be ready to learn about other cultures. Truly admirable woman. 🤍✨

    “It looks like it was decorated from discount stores.”- J. Kennedy when she arrived at the White House. She wasn’t wrong. When the Kennedys arrived most of the houses furnishing had been supplied by a NYC department store. All who come to the modern White House owe this Lady and committees who advised her a tremendous debt. And since the period pieces displayed here had to be found, a huge debt is owed to the private citizens who’d purchased the original house furnishings at auction usually- much gratitude for giving, not selling, the items back to the country. Mrs. Kennedy was a class act- always- when in the public eye and represented this country beautifully. It should be remembered too that she led the country in quiet dignified mourning after the death of her husband.

    I watched this tour the first time it aired. When I visited the White House in person, I got to see several of the pieces of furniture, such as the inlaid marble topped table in the Red Room. It stands in the same place as it was in in 1962. Also the pier table Mrs. Kennedy described which was in the Blue Room on the tour is in the entrance foyer now. It's amazing that one can really go inside the White House and see for themselves so many of the same artifacts that were described in 1962.

      @Tsang Tsung You mean the 2-star hotel lobby garden outside the White House? That rose garden? Because that isn't a rose garden. It's a piece of land that has cobblestone sidewalks and plants that are going to die since Melania was dumb enough to plant new shrubs and trees that will quickly die since she planted them in the humid air of Summer.
      Ripping out the crabapple trees Jackie planted to "move them somewhere else" just killed me because there is no replanting them. They're dead for good. All of those magnificent, colorful and healthy tulips are gone forever. It hurts because every first family since the Wilson's contributed something to that once magnificent garden. Melania literally ripped out DECADES of hard work for the most materialistic, elitest, dull, and lifeless garden I've ever seen.

As for your comment on JFK, on the full televised version of the tour JFK joins in at the end and talks about how Jackie done such a wonderful job in the refurbishment of the White House. I think you can find it on TH-cam. It really is nice to see the both of them together in happier times. Also another fun fact Jackie also won an Emmy award for this tour so that shows how well of a job she done.

    I read about her reaction when her husband was shot. It's so sad.

I assert, and will until my dying day that the legitimacy of the American Democratic Party ceased to exist on Friday, November 22nd 1963. I had the privilege of visiting the eternal flame, visiting President Kennedy's grave at Arlington National Cemetery around 1980 or so and although I was only 13 at the time, I felt so very moved by it...

      JFK was okay. He treated other nations with respect, he worked to reduce Cold War tensions, the economy was good, he skillfully resolved the Cuban Missile Crisis, and he signed the Nuclear Test Ban Treaty.

      @@garrywallace1007 I think back then that it was generally thought among women that they would be more feminine or "alluring" if they spoke with these wispy, breathy, softened voices. In reality, most men, found those kinds of voices annoying to have to listen to often. However, I can almost guarantee that these women did not speak this way in private. I knew a few women like this. If they ever got angry or didn't think they were being listened to by anyone other than very close friends or family then their "public voice" suddenly became as normal as anyone else's voice. They used to do the same thing with certain accents. For example southern "ladies" spoke with much more of a southern belle accent in public than when no one else was around to hear them. But it definitely was not considered "lady like" back then for a woman to have a loud, vociferous, bawdy or boisterous voice. That, of course, is certainly not the case today. Many women today speak much louder than men on a regular basis. And that is why it sounds strange for us today to listen to women's voices from 50 to 60 years ago.
