These people are caught at the end of their lives and they regret the passing of time. Everything thas was familiar to them has disappeared. Try it sometime and see what it does to you.
Old men fighting...Royce, the bunny, great editing job. What's not to love? You got to do this again though, with more drinking and more talking. The bit at the very end, I want to see more of that. It's priceless.
All I could think of was how sad... the resentments and unhappiness and she is caught in the process of it. Ying and yang ..angel/devil if you can compare two sides of one coin... I feel for the quiet demure optimist... and incite into alcoholism. I want to see her as a dancer as she used to be
"We drank Bombay gin with cognac chasers -- our driving laws weren't that strict. We went to the Cocoanut Grove when it was elegant -- when Freddy Martin was there and we wore our $10,000 dresses. We had the Chez Voltaire and the Beverly Rodeo, on Rodeo Drive, two blocks north of the Beverly Regent. It was wild but elegant, and known as Hooker's Row. All the men from New York went there, women came and went -- who cared? I was appalled, but Marilyn says I could have made a fortune there!"
This is the foreseeable future of all the talentless Instagram, fansonly and the other riffraff models male and female on the net... and I am okay with that.
I need to have a drink in that lounge. Seriously, next time I'm in L.A., priority stop, come hell or high water. (It's the little things that make life wonderful)
I am surprised that Engelbert Humperdink singing "Quando, Quando, Quando" could meet with Royce's high-toned musical needs. But alas, even she must make accommodations - regardless of how bitterly unwilling she may be - to the miserable existence she now has.
Without elegant music, I cannot live.
Oh! Without elegant music I cannot live, either! Royce is an absolute queen! She is living Living LIVING! I love it! I agree; let's PayPal her!
You HAVE to make more videos! This is an impeccable peek into a lost culture with mind boggling dynamics!
MORE! PLEASE!
'Without elegant music, I cannot live'... Amen.
What a fabulous woman, I am mesmerized.
" When I was 3 years of age I studied ballet in Paris "...LOL
Let's not get carried away by the 'camp'. The very end is terribly sad.

The last bit there, heartbreaking. RIP Royce and Marylin.
"Slow down. It's a Sunday afternoon, have a good time" is the funniest thing ever!

A true gem she is.
I feel sorry for them, it's a shame they don't have some family that could take them in. They are so fascinating and wonderful.

maybe getting older won't be so bad after all. fabulous! ;-)
this is the stillwell in downtown LA!
I adore these women! They don't make 'em like this any more ...
I need to have a drink in that lounge. Seriously, next time I'm in L.A., priority stop, come hell or high water. (It's the little things that make life wonderful)
wondering if you made it to the lounge.
I love it, I have two friends that are just like this and they are men!
I am in Love!!!!

this is the real life equivalent of Patsy Stone :) of course some would argue that there can be only one Patsy...
The sign in the bar says "Make Believe Ballroom"

until the end when she had to breakdown on me!
There isn't enough costume jewelry and gold sequins in the world for this woman to properly dance to Humperdinck
YOU GOT THAT RIGHT!!!!!
@ezywonder that is the best quote ive ever heard sir or madam :)
She would fit right in at the 1975 international players ball.
I am surprised that Engelbert Humperdink singing "Quando, Quando, Quando" could meet with Royce's high-toned musical needs. But alas, even she must make accommodations - regardless of how bitterly unwilling she may be - to the miserable existence she now has.
