LOOK AROUND... there are still some folks from the 1920's and 1930's who are in better shape than he's showing along this video. Now, even the mid-1940's fellows turned 80... soon the X-GENERATION fellows will be on the OLDIES TEAM...
General James Stewart. I salute you sir for your military service, your wonderful acting career, and the fact that you were truly a gentleman in every sense of the word.
Jimmy Stewart was/is as classy and genuine as you get. I’ve enjoyed him for years. I still enjoy making my family and friends crack up with my impression of him
Thank you for uploading this. General James M. Stewart is my all-time favorite. Such intelligence, gentility and humility. If only the mold hadn't been broken after him!
Great actor, 2 WW hero, loving husband, when his wife Gloria died Jimmy Stewart refused to change the battery in his pacemaker, he did not want to live without her.
I looked up to Johnny. Jimmy? If you actively supported a guy like Jesse Helms, who stood for so many programs that negatively effected people, I didn't look up to you.
@@bea78tles ah shut up. jimmy did more fighting than you could ever imagine, not to mention the slew of classics he starred in. he’s a national hero, shut up about politics, as if anyone can be judged by whom they supported alone. ridiculous and asinine idea, one which taints our society today. Jimmy and Henry Fonda were best friends despite having opposite political views.
An exceptional actor, human being and American. I'm very fortunate to be old enough to have seen most if not all of his movies. One of my most favorite actors to include John Wayne & Henry Fonda.
James Stewart I sure do miss him, even though I could do his voice perfect at 10 years old and still can, he is one of my favorite actors and is always a gentleman. Put properly General James Stewart USAF!
Imagine this interview with Fallon? You can't can you. But imagine Carson interviewing George Clooney or Robert de Niro. You can. I've watched a good few clips of Johnny, and he is a master of his craft. Here in the UK we had Terry wogan.
I read all the memoirs of classic Hollywood stars. Every other MGM star has a story about being overwhelmed running back and forth between sets, needing help, and Jimmy Stewart manifests like an Angel to run lines. He wasn’t even in the movies for which he ran lines - Joan Crawford and Ava Gardner come to mind - just an altogether kind person and true gentleman.
@@tdunph4250 Johnny Carson let the guests be the stars of the show. He knew that all he had to do was set them up for it. Even though I'll bet he wanted to, I don't think he ever even drummed on his show, did he? Just the pencil on the desk? It might have been nice to see Buddy Rich, Ed Shaughnessy, and Johnny all behind their kits at the same time...
He has a great line from a Jack Benny Skit: "Your wife makes all the decisions! Does she choose your own secretary?" Jimmy Srewart: "She does, and HE'S very good!"
I like when they talk about hearing aids and old guys turning them off . I knew a old couple when she would nag at him he would wink a grin at me turn it off . Eventually she would catch on . She would turn them on the old kind would whistle and then she would chew him out for turning them off. He would keep grinning because he got away with it for a while. 😂😁
I’m 54, graduated High School in 1987. I fell in love with acting and comedy because of men like Jimmy Stuart, Tony Curtis, George Burns, and Johnny Carson. Milton Berle, Jimmy Durante, Cary Grant, Bob Hope, Lucille Ball, Phyllis Diller, Elizabeth Taylor and so many, many more that, if you ask someone who graduated High School in ‘97 they have no idea who you are talking about. These people from the “Golden Age” of Hollywood are all but forgotten. Instead we have the Real Housewives of Sheboygan and crap like that! What has become of Hollywood and America as a whole!? Whenever I as someone who is younger than me about any of the aforementioned people, and they give me a puzzled look, I tell them to go back to their school and sue them for providing an incomplete education and picture of the world.

Senior is going back to the hearing specialist a few months after first getting them for a check up. Specialist asks “so what does your family think of them?“ Senior says “I haven’t told them, but I have changed my will three times.”
When Stewart brought up accordions that reminded me of grade school where at least 10 students in my class played them and it was simply mind numbing at times. I remember one day we had a recital and after about the 3rd accordion us boys about had enough of that crap.
Prior to SERVICE IN WW2 HE'S MOVIES WERE GREAT. AFTER WW2 HAVING FLOWN 25+ BOMBING MISSIONS OVER GERMANY ON RETURN HE'S MOVIES WENT TO A HIGHER LEVEL. ALONG WITH JOHN WAYNE THEY ARE MY FAVOURITE ACTOR'S . AND BEFORE THE CRITISM OF THE DUKE COMES . PLEASE READ WHY THE DUKE WAS NOT ALLOWED IN TO THE MILITARY. JAMES STEWART WAS GREAT FRIENDS WITH HIM AND THAT'S ALL I NEED TO KNOW.
Too bad they never got around to making The Late Christopher Bean. It was a creaky old chestnut of a play, but with Stewart and Burnett it would have been worth watching.
@@NavvyMom I'm not sure. Maybe there was a problem with the script or the scheduling. He was semi-retired after 1980. I do know that he turned down On Golden Pond.
James Maitland Stewart (Indiana, Pensilvania; 20 de mayo de 1908 - Beverly Hills, California; 2 de julio de 1997), popularmente conocido como James Stewart (o Jimmy Stewart, especialmente en Estados Unidos), fue un prolífico actor de cine, teatro y televisión estadounidense ganador de un Premio Óscar. Durante el transcurso de su carrera actuó en varias películas consideradas clásicos y fue nominado cinco veces al Premio Óscar, ganando una vez en competencia y recibiendo uno honorífico por su trayectoria; también recibió un Premio Cecil B. DeMille por su trayectoria, pero después ganaría el Globo de Oro como Mejor actor de televisión - Drama. También tuvo una notable carrera militar alcanzando el grado de General de Brigada en la Fuerza Aérea de los Estados Unidos.
The movie was not so bad, just trying to understand, how in the hell did they cast 38yr old man to play a high school senior bout to graduate and go off to college!? Any idiot even a blind man can clearly see his way too old for that part period! School aged kids in films back then looked old enough to have grandchildren, what they couldn’t find and child actors!?
i think jimmy a great human.. and very funny... but i think his acting is way over rated... ive never seen any of his movies that made u forget it was him. or that he was the character,, its like oh its jimmy stewart playing a part again... ! there are several great actors, many who werent even stars , that only seen in a few movies , that really made u believe that they was character seen..! but some others who couldnt suspend that disbelief, like paul newman, or tom cruise!

Amazing man. Amazing life. One of a kind indeed.
Would be so nice to have more people like Jimmy Stewart in this ol world right now. One of the best.

Stewart was the last of the big time movie stars of Hollywood's Golden Age. Nothing today compares with them.
Hi William how are you 😊
James Stewart, one of the best actors ever! There's a reason that they call it the golden age of Hollywood
General James Stewart. I salute you sir for your military service, your wonderful acting career, and the fact that you were truly a gentleman in every sense of the word.
actually Jimmy Stewart was unfortunately a racist
The definition of a class act.
Jimmy is a legend great actor
Yes one of the best. I love the old Hollywood guys.
My all-time favorite gentleman actor. He was a true legend, and I hope his legacy will continue to live on.
Stewart, one of the best actor to ever walk the earth. Carson the best talk show host, just carrying on a conversation. So entertaining
Absolutely agree.
Oscar winner and then war hero!
Jimmy Stewart was/is as classy and genuine as you get. I’ve enjoyed him for years. I still enjoy making my family and friends crack up with my impression of him
Johnny was the right man for the right time.
I can't imagine my younger years without this guy on tv.
I can't believe my eyes, another yooper in these parts!
@@IgnoretheButter Well yes, I imagine that we both know how to pronounce the word "pasty".
@@bea78tles yes. How bout Sauna
@@IgnoretheButter (SOW-nuh) And Negaunee, Ishpeming, Escanaba. Michigamme. We can pronounce them all.
Love James Stewart!!!
I just can't get enough of the movie "Seventh Heaven" I always watch it on youtube ! And proudly own "Its a Wonderful Life" !
Kind and gentle humor from a VERY smart man.
WELL WORTH the time to watch this Wonderful Gentleman, such a loving Man! Nothing but pure Class!
It is possible to be a truly good human being! And a Hollywood actor. Just a few examples!
Wasn't he a conservative Republican?
Jimmy just has a way of making you feel so good laughing
Jimmy, what a legend and talent.
Thank you for uploading this. General James M. Stewart is my all-time favorite. Such intelligence, gentility and humility. If only the mold hadn't been broken after him!
My favorite actor. Yes, even (especially) among today's actors! 😍
seeing this you understand that we are in deep ^%^
He was certainly unique and clever. 🙏🎼❤️
James was such a sweet man!
Great actor, 2 WW hero, loving husband, when his wife Gloria died Jimmy Stewart refused to change the battery in his pacemaker, he did not want to live without her.
Didn't know that, but that is so beautiful.
These were real man, and gentlemen. Just a fantastic time in history. It's such a shame that we no longer have these guys to look up to
Truth 💯

What a time to be alive. The best.
his delivery is incredible! “she did” - just incredible!

Jimmy Stewart...love to hear him talk and an American veteran of service to our country.

You’re correct,,, Fallon would have him play some silly game, to try and entertain the small minded fools that watch today.
Very good points
What A Dearly Great Life, That Wonderful Actor Jimmy Stewart Have Been. 😆
WW2 hero also
Retired as a general
Stewart lived another 13 years after this appearance.
What a talented Gentleman!!!!!!
The GOAT.
Two of my favorites

Great men. Great time to be alive. Please just look the way they dressed back then, this gave them class.
Such dignity.
Seeing a late-night host and a guest actually be funny sure does seem like something that could only have occurred a lifetime ago...
@Kurt Kensson Yes, that's for sure. You wouldn't see Mr Carson break out in some kind of idiotic karaoke with his guests that's for damn sure

I met Phyllis Diller at a Pepperdine University event probably around 2005 or 2006. It was such a delight!

We have great actors now and also great people. Time marches on. Good movies live on not necessarily actors. You are an old soul
Hi how are you 😊
I graduated in the late 90s, and I know of all these actors. But I'm the exception that proves the rule. :)
I graduated high school in 2009 and I grew up appreciating the classics. My siblings however, not so much.
@@lightbulb134Not really.
You will never see a man like this come out of Gen X, millennial gen, Gen Z or Alpha. The age that created guys like this has sadly long since passed.
Jimmy was mister cool
The Jimmy Stewart reference is awesome
He was a tall fellow, similar to Ed McMahon. Both very tall.
5:45 great 👍 man

He did a movie for HBO with Bette Davis in the 80s. Boy they showed their age in that
@@stevelyons6186 Right of Way, a great but sad movie.
@SSArt98 yesss! I haven't seen it in years but it was to me a classic
@@SSArt98 It's sad to see movie stars ageing. They seem immortal on screen, so seeing their real life is kinda jarring. ✨

Jimmy Stewart paused a successful career in entertainment to join the armed forces during WW2.
He stayed in the reserves until retirement, too. He retired as a Brigadier General .
