I see what you did their😉 She had a magical way about her, dont see many like her today...correction : Ive never seen anyone like her, the talent is just exploding
Ann Reinking is in the audience at 6:47 the camera pans to her at the end. Thank you so much for this video! They broke the mold when they made Gwen Verdon she had legendary talent and work ethic. Gwen with her daughter Nicole became very close great lifelong friends with the very talented Ann Reinking.
I was there, then. She was extraordinary. Fortunately, film has captured her art, though seeing her in person, to see her moving in real space, was a great thing.
@@latejanaurbana1589 Thank you for your kind comment. But I was just one, albeit a young one, of an audience who wanted and was able to see her at her best, at a time when musicals really counted as cultural markers.
I really envy you. At least there are movies for Damn Yankees and Sweet Charity (even if SC isn't with Verdon and that's a shame for me) but there's almost nothing online about Redhead (except the amazing Erbie Fitch's Twitch number) and she said it was her favourite among all the musicals.
I NEVER knew that this woman was a walking, breathing, dancing legend! I'm glued to watching her performances since FOSSE/VERDON came to television. And special mention that Michelle Williams has equal performance & production ownership like the guys do in this tv film. Check it out please on F/X (which means "fearless/not." Btw, I'm a freelance dancer w busted ankle....take pain meds/maybe future amputation, but I'll be damned if I can't move & exercise to music. I can use a prosthetic!
Kristine Smart So Right! Fosse/Verdon is so Good. I'm actually watching it right now. Are You really going to loose Your foot? Are You Diabetic? I am type 2.🤗Hugs🐽Warm Fuzzy✌Peace❤Love, Sheryl
prt464riv Hi, I'm old, so not a child lol. I'm not looking at any amputation for me. Your comment ,you said Your foot was being amputated. I know ppl get their foot amputated from Diabetes. If I miss read that I'm Happy for You.
Kristine Smart, I am an RN at a big VA hospital. I can tell you that if you have constant neuropathic pain and bad circulation in your bad foot and the doctors can't do vascular surgery to fix it, I would not delay an amputation if the doctors suggest it. Here's why: my patients who had a lot of pain in their bad extremities report, without exception, they wish they'd done the surgery sooner because they lived with pain longer than necessary. After surgery, their pain was gone and they went forward with a prosthetic. I know you did not ask for my advice. Forgive me if I offended you. And darn tootin' you can dance up a storm with your prosthetic, right! (If it comes to that)
Actually, they are pretty much cut from the same cloth. She left her show because she had burned out, but also the fact that the cheesy "I'm-so-nice-no-matter-what" act was getting to her.
I love Gwen Verdon to a worrying extent. independent of her unrivaled tallent, you can tell she was so genuine, and kept a child-like air about her to her very untimely end. She died much too soon (but then again I think Olivia DeHavilland died tragically young).
OMG the way she moves was incredible best dancer of her time she did sweet charity on Broadway. Got robbed when the movie got made. I’ve never seen the movie fossi till recently he was really eccentric.
There are and always have been great performers who come across on stage to a much greater degree than on film: Al Jolson, Ethel Merman, Gwen Verdon are just three among many. The opposite also applies . . . Horst Buchholz.
Fortunate we are to have film and video of her. The quality of the video is horrible, but still, I recommend the one of her performing "If My Friends Could See Me Now." Although the video quality is wretched, you can see enough of her dancing to be openmouthed with astonishment: how was it possible for a human being to DO that?! I'll always wish I'd been able to see her on Broadway.
Bob Taylor Take a look at this, please th-cam.com/video/6kjQmgm0r4g/w-d-xo.html and this th-cam.com/video/BIiZuAVZH4w/w-d-xo.html The quality is relatively good.
Ann Reinking and Gwen Verdon were close friends - from what I gathered based on my readings, Ann was the only girlfriend of Fosse that Gwen really liked and after Ann left Fosse due to his inability to commit to monogamy, she and Fosse still worked together but they weren't exactly on friendly terms. Gwen, on the other hand, became one of Ann's closest friends. That's why Ann was sitting in the front row of the studio audience - they were on Rosie to promote the Broadway production Fosse, which is essentially a tribute to Fosse. Ann absolutely had very high regards for Fosse and Gwen.
@@kerrijansson2919 Oohhhh, so in the FX series Fosse's young girlfriend Annie was Ann Reinking. Somehow I missed them saying her last name and have been wondering who she was.
@@leewitten4758 not even sure that is available in Sweden. But Amazon won't happen anyway :) will check if it comes available as import dvd in the future
Look at the arrangement of the guest's chair and the host's desk. You see this is most american talk shows- the guest has to practically turn away from the audience in order to make eye contact with the host- as here. Or, as on David Letterman's set, his seat towered over the guest's, so that the guest had to look up. You get the impression that these talk shows are really about promoting the host rather than the guest. Compare it to the English equivalents-The Parkinson show ( from the 70s till about 10 years ago) or the current Graham Norton show, and the guests are front and centre.
That was an awkward set design: the guest have to walk down two steps and then back up two more to meet Rosie. The entrance should have stayed on the same level as the interview level.

Hard to believe that Gwen has been gone for 21 years.. What a fabulous dancer/ entertainer she was.
Gwen Verdon was one of the very best dancers I've ever seen.
I just discovered her, or rediscover. I did recognize her from the Rosie Show. I just didn't know she was a dancer. Amazing. 😍
If only we could see her now. She was such a entertainment treasure!
I see what you did their😉 She had a magical way about her, dont see many like her today...correction : Ive never seen anyone like her, the talent is just exploding

Holy crap I never noticed wow! :,)
Sadly, both are now gone.
What a classy lady and a brilliant dancer.💃
The lady that is playing her on the screen sounds and acts just like her my God she is a phenomenon
Michelle Williams & yes she's phenomenal, she'll win an Emmy for that count on it !
Michelle did an awesome job playing her!!
"Charm is better than handsome". ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

Where? How did you see her?
@@latejanaurbana1589 In three Broadway shows: Damn Yankees, Redhead and Sweet Charity. Yes, I'm THAT old.
@@arthurboehm what an honor to make this tiny connection with an audience member who witnessed her dance LIVE. Amazing.

It's great that they were able to include that moment in "Fosse Verdon".
Yes, and they did it so well that they mad it look effortless, and the fluidity is something to see!!
Gwen Verdon was the greatest dancer, barring none. Miss her terribly.
where did Rosie go and why did Ellen become popular? Rosie seems genuine towards people and Gwen is amazing 🤩
My dad used to looooove the Rosie show. It’s hard to watch these old clips because I instantly think of him
@@TrangPakbaby This was Rosie before she became angry!!!
Actually, they are pretty much cut from the same cloth. She left her show because she had burned out, but also the fact that the cheesy "I'm-so-nice-no-matter-what" act was getting to her.
Those 2 ❄️rosie and ellen are loud and rude
Now that I know more about Gwen Verdon, I love her more than Fosse.
Tanya T SAME
Such a wonderful lady and great performer. There will never be anyone else like her, ever!
God doesn't make 'em like this anymore.
Fosse won the Best Director Oscar for Cabaret but Gwen choreographed it! She is an amazing talent! I could listen to all of her stories for hours!
She is simply the best.
To be able to hug Gwen.......
Rosie is so lucky to have her on the show!
illnsp08 We are all so lucky Rosie’s show is no longer on the air.
I miss u gwen😭
What a great, great performer Gwen was!!!
Her manners and diplomacy. Her intelligence too. Her patience with Fosses bad husband manners
I love Gwen Verdon to a worrying extent. independent of her unrivaled tallent, you can tell she was so genuine, and kept a child-like air about her to her very untimely end. She died much too soon (but then again I think Olivia DeHavilland died tragically young).
She remained a gypsy even when she became a star.
The best dancer from the 50-60's.......spectacular Gwen Verdon!!
The best ever. Reinking is second.
@@saradecapua3264 Yes, but Reinking had NO star quality and Gwen had it in spades.
@@MrCrowebobby I wish I had see Gwen on Broadway. Saw Reinking, vereen and Rubenstein in Pippin.
Wonderful having the opportunity seeing and listening to Gwen Verdon, she was so fabulous!
Oh. This is stunning.
Thanks for posting! What a legend!
GOD I LOVE HER SO MUCHHHHH
Rip Gwen Verdon Bob Fosse Ann reinking
Thank you for sharing this clip.
Thanks for the great interview
1947 she met Bob Fossee, 3:30 "we want Verdon", 5:25 she trained Jane Russell and Marilyn Monroe; 6:30 1959 Life Magazine cover

Love this Grand Lady Of Stage and Dance and Screen ! ❤️
RIP🌹🌹🙏🏼
"Fosse/Verdon
what a legend. I love her so much. I hope she was happy. She was def loved
I didn’t know Rosie knew that much about dancing. I would love to see her again in a talk show, she was just great.
Tv show about her n Bob. Fosse/Verdon really good 😀
What an absolute gem.

Isn't she Grand isn't she ? My eyes won't leave her when she's dancing.
I had to make myself watch Fosse in the Who's Got the Pain clip after watching her about 20 times.
And her voice is the cutest...reminds of Betty Boop some lol
@@tomrhea555 Yes, thats my favorite of the two!! And the actors *killed it*
LOVE LOVE LOVE
And Anne Reinking in the audience!
What? Really n

She really is like a Gwen Jr. Great dancer, quirky voice, non-standard beauty. Thank god she's in All That Jazz.
This woman is a legend.💃
I’m glad I know about her now 🤩👍❤️
A legend in every way
Legendary.
we need a proper Gwenomentary!
Watch Merely Marvelous.
@@leewitten4758 do you know where to find it?
Amazon with a Broadway HD subscription, if you're an ethical man anyways (aargh).
@@leewitten4758 not even sure that is available in Sweden. But Amazon won't happen anyway :) will check if it comes available as import dvd in the future
Great interview! I love Fosse/Verdon and Gwen is fabulous here. Yet based on her voice I wonder if she was ill here.
She sounds a bit like Hepburn so I wondered that too. I don't think she had a lot of time left.
just watched what she described as a curtain call in Fosse/Verdon!
Gwen verdon phenomenal dancer
ilove bob fossie and gwen vrdon
Thanks!! What is the real airing date of the clip.

Happens that way on James Corden's show as well. It appears that he patterns his set-up like Graham Norton's.

Hi, OMG! I watched Religiously! I miss Seeing Rosie So Much!🤗Hugs😢Teary-eyed 🐽✌❤,Sheryl
got on her mao sa ting outfit
Saw her in sweet charity
I miss normal non-hysterical Queen of Nice Rosie O'Donnell
Makes me wonder if being the Queen of Nice was all an act.
Well, she was still in the closet back then.
agreed.I liked her a lot before she turned into such a political bitch on "The View"
@@HonSkrattar - Why do you hate?
Sam ...wow!
Rosie always says she was waiting years for a guest....
Bob Fosse wrote the play "Redhead"expressly for her..
Fosse didn't write "Redhead."
1947 they met
3:40 CanCan
4:38
What channel and what day dose Rosie come ?
Juana Cardona daily at 3 pm from 1996 - 2002
This is an old video. Rosie hasn’t had her own show in ages.
Sus subtulado?
Sad that she lived only one more year and a half.
😢
Unfortunately, Gwen was told that she was too unattractive to be a leading lady in films.
I'm only watching because of Gwen. I can't stand Rosie.
Gwen was fabulous. Rosie not so.
She talks like Selma Blair who has MS
