- In her latest film, "Between the Temples," Oscar-nominated actress Carol Kane plays a retired music teacher who is determined to be bat mitzvahed. Kane talks with correspondent Nancy Giles about how her own mother inspired her character; how Andy Kaufman taught her the "language" that their characters, Latka and Simka, spoke on the TV series "Taxi"; and how, as a student, she resisted the opinion of a doctor who said she should never set foot on stage.

Imagine being 72 and still having your mother. What a blessing (if you like your mother).
Honestly, I hope that's not me...but if you have someone who's an actual loving, carrying, nurturing "mother' like Kane does, that's a different story.
I am incredibly & extremely envious of her. I miss my mom every day, still talking to her even though she's been gone for 8 years.
Oh my! That is so joyous in itself. I'm 32 and don't have my mother. But, I have wonderful memories.
Pretty much a husk by that age.
@@steveconn I'm so sad for you that you have not had experiences with vital older folks in your life. My Mom lost her mom just before she turned 97 (my Mom was 71), and she was remarkable to her last day. I just helped celebrate the birthday of a dear neighbor friend who turned 101, and wish that more people could know her, she is so amazing, and I learn something from her everyday I spend with her.
I did box office for a show Carol Kane was in. One day, she was running late and called the box office to ask if I would jsut pop my head in the rehearsal room and tell them she was running late. She didn't have another number. I'll never forget hearing that iconic voice on the phone and freaking out internally, 'Hello, this is Carol Kane.' She truly is a legend. My dad and I would quote her scenes from Scrooged to each other all the time. At the end of her run with the show, she brought me a red rose. She had been giving them out to everyone in the production and I was so touched that she didn't forget me.
Carol was friends with my brother and after he die she was in town to do a show. She came by and visited my mom. She is a total sweet heart. Never forget that day.
Bette Davis once said if they were to do a movie of her life she would want Carol to play her. I can see that. That's pretty high praise from one of the greatest screen divas ever.
Her comedic timing is impeccable.
I gave her a ride in my cab in the 80s. We had a conversation about movies. Nice lady.
I adore this woman! And I'm so glad she didn't listen to that doctor. Carol Kane is unique and oh-so talented! 🌟 Rock on, Carol! ❤
Rock on indeed
I do too! Just think if she had listened to him, we would not have her wonderful performances. Kane always emanates joy!
@@marytheresejacksonlutz2533 TOTALLY agree! 👍
@@goldeneve 💫🌟
It almost seems like he might have said that to inspire her to prove him wrong….
I have loved Carol Kane from the beginning. Now she's even made it to Star Trek: Strange New Worlds. She is a brilliant star Long may she shine.
Carol's ensemble role on Princess Bride branded my definition of fabulous comedic acting in my mind, forever.
She looks dam good for 72 ❤🎉
I had the incredible fortune of seeing Ms. Kane twice as Madame Morrible in Wicked and she absolutely killed it! She brought that classic Kane sense of humor to the role and really made it her own!
I grew up watching Carol Kane and she’s one of the best actress that my generation was lucky enough to have. Thank you, Carol, for all of the incredible roles you’ve played. 😊❤
I actually remember Hester Street! But her role on Taxi will always have a special place in my heart. I think if you asked ten random people to describe Carol in one word, I'd wager at least half of them would say, "adorable." 🙂
“Hester Street” is where I first heard of her. Then I heard about her in “Annie Hall”.
I have a general rule for films
Any film with Carol or Tim Curry in it can not be a bad film over all
That lady (the mother) is sharp as a tack. I hope we can all experience our later years like that.
Carol Kane is very special and talented
her mom is too!
Carol Kane is so funny. I loved her in Kimmy Schmidt. She had the best one liners
She is wonderful and bright.
Loved her in everything she’s done!
I loveeeeeeeeee Carol Kane!!!!! ❤❤❤
How beautiful!
Carol Kane was the best grandmama in the addams family ❤❤
Wonderful interview... including with her 97 year old mother! Wow! Thank you for showing us the real Carol Kane. She has created so many memorable characters! And learning the language she and Andy Kaufman spoke on "Taxi" involved that kind of freedom to create was fantastic!
She's a national treasure. I love her roles in Hester Street and as Simpka. I wish her mother would adopt me, she's a treasure too. :)
Loved her in the 1979 film “When a Stranger Calls”
Nice interview. Love me some Carol Kane!!! She's in the class of quirky underrated very talented actors like the dearly departed Shelley Duvall. Rock on Carol (and it seems like her mother is lucky to have her in her life - maybe she lives nearby?...and vice versa)! ❤☮🌎
Loved her as "Simka" to Andy Kaufman's "Latka" in "TAXI." So, so good!
I’ve adored her for decades now.
Thanx so much for doing this story !!!Loved it !Love Carol Kane !!!💕❤️💕
Loved her when a stranger calls..played a great scared terrified babysitter!! And even yrs after that night in that movie!
People throw around the "must be protected at all costs" thing a little too freely sometimes, but Carol Kane is a goddamned treasure.
Kane, what a treasure. Great actress and artist. Thanks for all the wonderful characters.
Carol Kane is a legend....one of the best.
Ms Kane is a national treasure.
Loved her especially as Grandmama in Addams Family Values and Jumpin Jack Flash.
The first movie I ever watched of hers was When a Stranger Calls. I was a kid and it terrified me. I loved it. I have enjoyed all of her interesting characters from The Princess Bride, Transylvania 6500,and The Addams Family. Wonderful childhood memories of all these movies. Absolutely love her.
I saw that movie recently and was surprised I hadn't seen it earlier. I love her too, she is fabulous!
OMG my friends and I just watched that a few months ago. I had always heard of it but never sat down to watch it it. We loved😂 it
And Transylvania 6-5000 was a fave as a kid ❤
Such an exotic beauty, and without knowing her but knowing her work I bet she's an equally wonderfully beautiful person inside as well.❤
Eccentricly beautiful & a
phenomenal actress. I just
love Carol Kane.
Beautiful and underrated!
So talented and beautiful. She really doesn't look her age at all!
Love her! She’s so talented, I watch everything she’s in.
She is a Legend
Thank you Nancy Giles for this wonderful interview of the fabulous Kane!
How I adore her ❤❤
She's so wonderful! When I was a kiddo I loved her on Taxi, and more recently I really enjoyed her on Hunters... such a fun, talented, and excellent artist.
Gosh her mother seems like an amazing woman. Would love to read more about her and hear her music.
I tried to reply with a link to some of her music on TH-cam, but I think YT removed the link I shared. If you search "Joy Kane Neige" on TH-cam, some of her music should pop up in the results (including a piece she composed entitled "Neige").
She's amazing in Addams Family Values
"Just a curse, have a nice day!" 😙
I love her! And Nancy Giles is a really great interviewer!
Good interview. I appreciate Carol Kane's work even more now that I know her feelings about it. Not ever taking any role for granted.
Carol Kane, authentic, individual, integrity, unique acting ❤
Carol Kane has always been one of my favorites. She deserves more than 7 minutes!
Oh this interview is what I needed this week! 🙂
Love her - wish they had mentioned her brilliant performance in, 'When A Stranger Calls'.
One of the greatest opening sequences ever
That's a woefully underrated film. I think it's one of the best American films of the Seventies, and Kane is impeccable in it.
Enduringly endearing Carol Kane✨
There are so many fantastic actresses that we’ll never see because they don’t fit the mold of Hollywood glamour. There are so many actresses that aren’t very talented, but are very successful because they do fit the mold of Hollywood glamour.
All of my favorite actresses and actors are the ones who are unique. They stand out and leave a lasting impression.
Ironically I think Carol is a stunning classical beauty ❤
She is one of a kind, and I love her for that.
Carol Kane is amazing! I came here because I knew The Princess Bride was going to come up.
LOVED this interview. Great job! Miss Kane is a treasure!
Beautiful story! Amazing actress.
Y’all are so inspiring ~ thank you ❤
Very Underrated Actress. She's in so many great movies. Including when a stranger calls and license to drive where she plays Corey Haim's Mom.
Honestly just a lovley special. I adore this actress.
Imagine her resume of accomplishments! I want her continued success!
She is so hilarious!
She’s a national treasure and so is her mom!
I want an Annie Potts/Carol Kane "Thelma and Louise" style "buddy" movie! ;-)
I love carol!!!
My favorite Carol Kane performance is when she portrayed Jill Johnson in When A Stranger Calls - she is an incredible dramatic actress ❤❤😊😊
A great role and superb performance, in a terrific, underrated film.
Just Divine!
Never will I forget watching two-time Emmy-winning actress Carol Kane as Mrs. Anderson in the Greg Beeman film 'License to Drive' at the cinema whilst on holiday in Michigan back in July 1988. I even like to watch the film - 'Papá Cadillac' - dubbed in Castilian Spanish (Spain) through a Russian bootleg video streaming site.
Good for Her
...
72 and still going strong..
❤❤❤
She is a treasure.
I also am 72 years old.
She’s amazing in Hunters, I rewatched it for a 2nd time & she is just amazing in it!
Carol Kane is a national treasure. True comedic genius. Did CBS even mention the name of her new movie? 😅 Would love to see it
I've always Loved Her!!!
Amazing actress. I loved scrooged, flashback, addams family and so many others.
Brilliant performer hope she keeps doing more amazing things!. Love her!!! Wonderful to see her with her mom.
What a gorgeous icon.
I've been watching her in TV and movies my whole life. She always seemed so otherworldly and ageless.😁❤
I’ll always remember her as Mrs Claus in Billy and Mandy
She’s a real national treasure. Such talent.
She was great in "My First Mister" with Albert Brooks, Leelee Sobieski, Michael McKean, Mary Kay Place, John Goodman, etc. Carol Kane plays the mother of a troubled young woman who finds friendship and respect in the most unlikely of places and Carol is wonderful as the mother. No one could have played her role any better. It is one of the best movies you have never heard of.
The greatest/most brilliant actors, singers, writers, and visual artist are either gone or soon will be. We will NEVER know Greatness again. She's a gem.
Ans she is very much alive...for goodness sake, she's only in her early 70's.
@@lorainelevi2285 "Soon" doesn't mean tomorrow.
I love her!!! Saw her on Kimmy Smidth and she was hilarious 😆 God bless her and her mom💖
She still looks beautiful ❤️❤️❤️
wow- she is amazing
Love, Love, LOVE Carol Kane. Have done since Taxi!
❤😊
I always thought Carol Kane was such a beautiful, unique looking woman since I was a kid. 😊
Saw her in Wicked on Broadway. She was spectacular.
I used to love Taxi on Nick at Night, particularly for her and Andy K. Glad she's still thriving.
Scrooged is 1 of my all-time favorite Christmas movies & Taxi...
What a lovely actor
Remarkable, women! Thank you for this story @CBS Sunday Morning!
When a stranger call--great movie---Love her! beautiful girl
She's brilliant.
She’s a treasure. Great to see her in Star Trek: Strange New Worlds!
I'm not a witch, I'm your wife!!!!
Same same.
Get away, witch!
She and Billy Crystal improvised all their lines, the only cast members that got to do so.
Love Carol Kane, she's 👍🎥🎞️🎬🎭
I will always love her performance as Simka on Taxi. I also love the movie she did with Gene Wilder The World's Greatest Lover.
Thank you for this segment.
