I have severe Bipolar disorder and PTSD. Her body language, lack of emotion, vacant expression are so telling and so sad. Her book helped save my life. RIP Patty.
YOU WANT TO KNOW WHAT HAPPENED? WHAT DOES BIPOLAR MEAN SOMETIMES?
Duke was raised Queens where she experienced a difficult childhood. Her father was an alcoholic, and mother suffered from clinical depression and prone to violence. When Duke was 6, her mother forced her father to leave the family. When she was 8, her care was turned over to her managers John and Ethel Ross, who after promoting her brother, were looking for a girl to add to their stable of child actors. The Rosses methods of managing her career were often unscrupulous and exploitative. They consistently billed her as being 2 years younger than she actually was and padded her resume with false credits.They force her to drink alcohol and take prescription drugs, took unreasonably high fees from her earnings, and made sexual advances to her. She never saw her father or saw her mother only when she visited to do the Rosses' laundry. In addition, the Rosses made Duke change her name. "Anna Marie is dead," they said. "You're Patty now."
DeAnn I'm so happy Patty helped you. It was an amazing book. Patty had a short but remarkable life and she left her mark to be sure.
Her book helped saved my life too! She’s my inspiration and i love her. Like Anna, I was diagnosed with Bipolar disorder after I hadn’t slept for days, erratic behavior, crazy spending,and I thought about knifing my own husband😞
Patty Duke had only just found out she was pregnant before this award show...what we further didn't know/discuss beyond her health problems was the whole "Mama Mia" thing! A paternity test decades later cleared that up, so as far as this acceptance speech goes, give the girl some slack!!!
She was finally diagnosed with Bipolar Disorder in 1982, 12 years after this win, Its crazy to think someone living for so long without any help and medication, may she rest in power ❤️
Boy she had a beautiful head of hair!
I am aware!
I agree-even though she was going through a serious mental crisis, she still looked so earnest and beautiful. Her performance in “ The Miracle Worker” was jaw-dropping. Such a brilliant performer. RIP, Patty. You were amazing.
I love this comment.
@@hedwigsgal78 Thank you so much.
I remember seeing this movie 'My Sweet Charlie' on TV as a kid in the 1970s; Patty Duke was great in it.
She is a lightning rod of dramatic charisma
Well I saw this the night it aired as a child. Desi looked concerned when she left for the stage. You could feel the tension. Patty looked so fresh and beautiful but she was suffering. It was a water shed moment in award shows to be sure.
Wait that's Desi Arnez jr ?
@@barbaraobach Cute, huh?
@@barbaraobach yes, he was about 18 at the time. He looked so afraid for Patty to take the stage.
You can tell she is having some problems here. I loved her and read her book. I am so glad that I got to meet her. She spoke in South Bend at a Real Services program. She told us her story about living with a mental illness. She was happy with her life at the end. She found a good guy to marry and was living in the country. She said she was happy being a grandma. She told us that was her best role ever. She was happy finally. Taking acting roles when she wanted was freeing she informed us. She had medication for her bipolar and it made all the difference in her life. She was glad we still remembered her. Patty(Anna) let us hug her and take our picture with her. It was wonderful for me. I was devastated when I heard she had died young. So many people I care about keep dying. I loved your show and your movies over the years. She was so humble when I told her how good she was. She said she just followed the director's cues, but she was talented. I feel she was special. A lot of my friends felt so too. We loved you, Anna. I will never forget you. Thanks for the memories.
Beautifully said!
Yes she seems in a bad way for sure.
What a wonderful gift to have met her in this way!
Yes I saw her and her husband John Astin in a play at the Moore Theater here in Seattle. After the show me and my girlfriend waited to see these two 'cause I wanted her autograph. She signed it and I asked if she wouldn't mind if my friend could take a picture of us. She said sure and so I had a picture of both her and John and I'm the middle. She was such a good sport -- simply loved her.
69 years of age while not really old is not young.
I have never forgotten this. I saw it live.
Who really knows what the poor girl was experiencing at the time? Clearly she was in the throes of some extreme mental turmoil, whatever the cause. RIP, Patty. You were a gifted actress.
I think it's safe to say that she was a genius, and it must be incredibly difficult for a genius to navigate a world filled with average people. She was graceful. RIP, Patty. You died too young.
She was a "genius?" Talk about hysterical hyperbole!
The genius, insanity and creativity gene are related per scientist
Gorgeous ... a class act.
She was very pretty here
Love how she just walks right past the woman w the award then snatches it w/o even looking at her lol.
Savage!!
@john smith no she wasn't, she didn't do drugs, she was manic depressive.
@@MN-ty2rc
Not "savage", mentally ill. The story about her illness brought me here.
As well as the part about her being a paedophile, dating Desi Arnaz Jr.
That is simply _the tip_ of the story. Woefully sad.
Oh shit. I just realized after my comment, that Desi's _mother,_ late legend Lucy, is shown at the end.
Now, *_THAT_** is shady.*
@@BL3SSed-Bliss Patty wrote that as a child living with her managers the Rosses, they molested her. Her son Sean Astin says that due to Patty's oversight and protection of him in his child and teen acting career, he was not molested, unlike his less lucky Corey costars. Absent evidence, I do not believe Patty was "a paedophile."
I love her Hair Style in that event. Look so 90's
Patty was my idol I was like 12 when she won an Emmy for My Sweet Charlie and even I thought she was pretty way out there (lol) and I thought wow how could my idol do this to herself. Here I find out she was signing so the deaf as well as the hearing could hear. Wow pretty remarkable since I have a hearing loss and have felt lost in the world of hearing.
In her memoirs, she explained that, starting at 1:10 in this clip, she was actually signing the words she was saying--which makes the seemingly bizarre pauses more explicable. For some reason, the director decided to stay in close-up on her face, so no one in the TV audience could see what she was doing with her hands and everyone thought she was tripping heavily on drugs. In reality, she hadn't slept for days due to an attack of bipolar mania.
You can see at the left of the screen her fingers come into the shot a couple of times. Thanks for explaining she was signing
Thank you for explaining. Patty was beautiful and I saw the actual broadcast as a kid. Desi looked concerned for the 24 year old Patty that night.
I remember watching this in real time, Patty being one of my childhood fav's I was concerned for her well being! The trash magazines back then were brutal on her! R.i.P Anna💜
@rob yohn how is it possible both you and your brother are bipolar?
She looks so lost here .
Patty Duke says something here that indicates she has more intelligence than a lot of people think she has. She shows respect for a very talented actress who is more than twice her age. She is Dame Edith Evans.
Dame Edith could have attended the Emmy Awards ceremony in 1970. She occasionally worked on projects for BBC television. Did Emmy Awards in the United States ever acknowledge performances in the United Kingdom? Public broadcasting in the United States often recycled United Kingdom television broadcasts, so the English actors might have been eligible for American awards.
Patty Duke utters Dame Edith Evans’ name in a rapid-fire way, as if she could be a manic depressive, but she is not hallucinating about Dame Edith’s presence at the ceremony.
Dame Edith Evans was a nominee in the category she had just won. Anna was one of the first winners to honor a co-nominee in an acceptance speech. Lots of British actors at that time (Susan Hampshire, Glenda Jackson, Gordon Jackson, Keith Mitchell) were major Emmy winners.
Duke's presenters were Monty Hall and Julie Sommars, since no one else mentioned them.
I recognized him, but wasn't sure who she was.
She is beautiful and natural.
So sad to watch a BEAUTIFUL actress suffering from bipolar depression❣ 💙💚🧡💜💖💝
Anna (Patty Duke) became a cherished, although not terribly close friend to my mother in Coeur d' Alene Idaho. I believe they met at the antique mall where my mother and father had a space. Mom and Anna would have some very long conversations in the mall. Oddly I saw them more as sisters than friends, especially in looks. Both were lifelong smokers with the health issues to show for it. By the time of her own death Anna looked nearly identical to my mother. My mother also had mental health issues but covered it and was able to cope somewhat through her religious devotion. Mom preceded Anna by 9 years, also dying at age 69, although my mother died of lung cancer. Anna was a very sweet lady to my mom and I will always appreciate her for that.
i don't know why people say drugs to this.. She seemed so sad, lonely and.. well.. engry. Her eyes are not high her eyes are despair :(
+moomson Yeah. It's not drugs. She was very open about this later on. She was in a manic phase of manic depression (bipolar disorder). Had barely slept in many many days. She's not in control which is actually a little hard to tell here because the most incoherent parts have been cut out. Mania makes you exhausted AND extremely hyper at the same time. Also gives you grandiose ideas, and lots of other things that make a person behave unlike themselves.
bullshit, shes high as fuck.
@@nspector She seems here more in a depressive phase.
@@sharksport01 settle down superstar . This is way above your intelligent pay scale. Stop pretending you " understand what's happening here" lol. Hahaha
And she was also pregnant with Sean Astin at the time. She was facing many things then, especially in her personal life. At the time, she was briefly married to Michael Tell, who, years later, was Sean's bio father, broke up with Desi Arnaz Jr., and then was having a relationship with John Astin. She looked exhausted, coming into her depressive phase. The tabloids trashed her on her appearance at the Emmys
Kind of heartbreaking to see her suffer in person. bad enough in every day life.
yes, you can see she is deeply disturbed here..god bless patty! RIP...
I don't know why but I fell in love with her at that time. I was 16
Me too. But...I know why. I had a huge crush on Patty Duke.
She was beautiful
It's obvious as to why - just look at her. I had a thing for her too, and that stood as (we both) got older.
One of the greatest actresses of all- Time! Very good singer as well! LOVE YOU PATTY!! 💘 ❤ 😍 💖
Even when Patty is in her "manic" stage, as here, she is still GLORIOUS. So very talented and pretty. Her intensity is beautifully timed. I grew up watching the Patty Duke Show. As a young boy in the sixties I had SUCH a CRUSH on her haha...still do really. R.I.P. Patty Duke. ❤️
Clearly you don't know much about the manic side of bi-polar disorder. A manic person is "hyper", agitated, talkative and restless. Patty didn't seem in a depressed state here, but her demeanor was about as far from a manic state as one can get.
Even unwell you can have talent. RIP.
RIP Patty!!
Actually I saw the movie of her biography and based on this, her real mother was there with her. Before arriving to the awards, her mother was upset because she wanted to look impressive and Patty had to come up with something to wear that day so her mom took the original dress she was supposed to wear that day, and also John Ross had passed away that time.
My Sweet Charlie is a great movie one of my favorites
She drank champagne in the limo, had a disagreement with her mother, and had her mind on Al Freeman Jr. It all caught up with her.
What a queen.
Whether she was high, depressed, or something else, I love how REAL her acceptance speech was. You would NEVER see an acceptance speech this REAL today in our conformity-driven, just be happy, SOUND BITE world.
Professor Time actually she was signing her words rewatch and look at the lower left hand side of the screen you will see her fingers here and there. She also said she was signing in her book and that she was having a manic episode and hadn't slept in days.
Alex Lifeson acceptance speech into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame was pretty real.
The Fiona Apple Speech back in the late 90's was Real too.
Bipolar
@@butterflyforeve Not doubting that she "hadn't slept in days," but remarkable that here she looks so youthful and dewy.
When you get into a certain mood fir whatever reason and then you have to go in front of the world and be all nice and perfect well the hell with it I’m gonna be myself. I think bipolar is when the pain body that hasn’t been healed is activated and we know how difficult it is to cover our moods up. I love her honesty. I can’t say enough about this incredible talent and individual.
I remember at the time some people said that Patty should be given another Emmy for this speech !
Actually, the best Patty/AnneMarie ever looked IMO
agree with you
Looks natural and beautiful. But she did look beautiful often.
She is so beautiful here her hair is so modern she could be Jenifer Aniston
Or Alicia Silverston
god, what an insult!!
@@Marcel_Audubonit was not a insult
Her hair was pretty much 1970’s later 1960s.
To me her hair is classic beauty
She was so beautiful
Such a great talent. It's a shame she had so many troubles.
It's obvious Desi was extremely concerned by the look on his face. It looks like he really had his hands full with prior to the ceremony.
I understand why Lucille Ball had reservations about him being involved Patty (Anna). I wouldn't my son with someone so seemingly out of control.
Mental illness is not easy, especially when undiagnosed.
Thankful she was diagnosed and placed on the correct medication.
If only Frances Farmer had been properly diagnosed and there was medication to treat her then.
Love you, Anna. Rest peacefully
Hello, we're enthused you said thank you.
That was awesome!!!
She was a huge star at a young age. Who wouldn't have had a big head?
Desi was cute when he was young. Desi looks darling.
oh man she was probably going through an episode here.
rest in peace
Desi looks great here
Still miss Patty 😢
She was not high, she was going through a maniac episode.
*manic
It seems like she's still playing Neely O'Hara at this moment. RIP
😃😃😃
Yes..
Lmfao!😂😂😂😂
YEEEEEEAAAAAH...but Neely never said "thank you", Patty-Anna did grab the statue, but she didn't say "gimme that, dammit!"
Oh gosh it's so sad..I can feel the sadness and despair in Patty duke's eyes..She seemed so lost..so bizarre..God bless her .She went through hell with her bipolar disorder.. It's painful to watch.
how does she seem lost to you. who taught you that. she's very present here, even if she's inhabiting one part of herself, and Forgetting the crowd, and the demand to placate an anonymous sea of people with apropos triteness. You want her more conscious of the eyes on her? for what. One does not have to be beholden All the time... she was Standardly functional enough to win awards most don't/can't. (well; actually, she won those awards for her ability to shirk the gaze.)
She had regrettable illness too- yes- as in, loss of control. But what is sad Here? control here, to make lesser tremble.
Patty was very Bipolar here. Not just in the way she spoke but in her body language and the look in her eyes. It was very sad to see. I myself have Bipolar so it was easy to spot.
I have bipolar too, but I love this footage. I just understand it. Every pause, every shift of the eyes, the thin veil of stoicism which is there to allow people to notice that there is something very emotionally charged just beneath. It's beautiful.
tremendous self-possession on display, of one part of the self at least. not her own part, an alien? are individuals not multiple? Anais Nin and Nathalie Sarraute write beautifully on the many I's that make up the self. vamping... but a flight/inhabiting, that those who win Oscars and make art are not afraid of.
She was actually under the influence of alcohol and drugs.
Actually it is embarrassing to watch. She is pathetic.
@@m.e.d.7997 what a mean thing to say.... I guess we cant all be Perfect like you asshole.... You are the one that’s Pathetic.... She was having a bi polar episode, it wasnt her fault
I loved Patty Duke !!! God BLESS her soul !!!
Poor girl...so obviously unhappy. I never expected her to be seen publicly with Desi Arnaz, Jr.
Thye went out with each other for a time and there was speculation HE was the father of her son. I think she said he was but he was not.
She’s beautiful. But something’s off. Rest In Peace Anna.❤💔❤️💔
I was diagnosed with bipolar disorder this month.
How are you holding up?
All the child abuse led her to drugs. Thank God she got her life together. Great actress and movie.
I wonder how she escaped those Rosses
@@bluecollarlit she got married at 18, that's how
Poor Patty....Shes in a good place now where the evil cant touch her
There is so much evil in the world.
What was with the circuitous walk around the woman presenter. ? I love PD. I KNOW SHE WAS IN ALOT OF PAIN.
That wasn't all as strange as I heard it was. She just seems emotionally worn.
On the MONK tv show there is an episode where they show Monk in the 7th grade and he has a signed photo of Patty Duke in his locker.He tells his classmate, who also watches the show, that on THE PATTY DUKE SHOW they are actually lying to the audience because it is physically impossible to be a twin with your cousin.
WOW ❗❗❗
I think it was a good speech. Unrehearsed and sincere. So unlike the phony no-talents of today.
pgs. 215-16 from Duke’s memoir Call Me Anna: Not only was she having a manic episode during this speech, her former manager (whom she lived with and was abused by) had just died and she was pregnant by a married man. (She claims he was separated at the time of conception). It was the first awards ceremony her (disturbed) mother had attended and she did not express happiness that Duke had won.
Because she was manic, she had no idea that her speech was incoherent and bizarre. Her reference to the word ‘enthusiasm’: her manager told her it was derived from a Greek word for ‘the god within.’
When she looks like she is standing still, she is using sign language to send a message to the Deaf community.
She had earlier announced that she wanted the hard of hearing to get what she had to say ....What the camera shot doesn't show is that she was using her had for sign language !!!!!
Came here straight from "Inside Of You With Michael Rosenbaum"
She dissed the actress who was trying to hand her the trophy and then grabbed it from her in a crude manner when she got to the podium. Miss Duke was obviously having one of her bi polar episodes here.
@@KelleyM462 lol!
yeah, that is the weirdest part of this whole clip - how she robotically approached the dais, completely ignoring Julie Sommars who is trying to hand her the award, walking around her in a military fashion with 90 degree turns, but then reaching for the award from her without ever acknowledging her existence or making eye contact - Desi looked concerned (but elegant!) when her name was announced, but she ignored him, too. They looked like 2 unsmiling people who had just had a fight. Bi-polar? maybe so, but something pharmaceutical involved here, too. No wonder Lucille Ball wanted to get her teenaged son away from her.
Some say that Patty Duke was high, drunk, in the Manic phase of her BiPolar disorder, had just had a fight with her mother, in the limo ride to the theater. I would bet that it was a combination of all the above. BTW, was that Desi Arnaz Jr. with whom she was sitting?? Anyway, RIP, Patty "Anne", you will be sorely missed..!!
Yes, that is Desi Arnaz, Jr.
@@afton1955 Yep. They dated for a while.
He was SEVENTEEN here and she was a cougar at 23🤣🤣🤣
@@averythecoolcat And she thought he was Sean's father.
@@rgreene152 Yeah, turned out to be that guy, Michael Tell, she married when she was having one of her episodes.
She was incredibly intelligent, beautiful, great actress, the list goes on! Unfortunately, Desi was a Mama's boy and had to pull away from her due to his mother not approving their relationship.😕
Good thing Lucille Ball was watching out for her son. If not, Desi's life would've been pure hell if he'd been married Ana (aka Patty Duke). Due to her BPD, she'd be f*cking the dog catcher, milkman, postman, homeless, the whole LA Rams football team, and the Dallas Cowboys Cheerleaders.
Patty Duke was sitting with Desi Arnaz Jr. They had been seeing each other. About that time Lucille Ball did not want her to be seeing Desi Jr. Perhaps that had something to do with what the public wasn't able to see at that time.
💛
Sparkle, Neely, sparkle...
She seemed very shy in real life - as we all are are in real life ,when we come before complete strangers as at this ceremony. She understood the event was only to honor her work. Al Freeman Jr. should have been there and honored for his work with her in MY SWEET CHARLIE.The movie should have been written by me . It had a lousy ending.
I loved Patty Duke as a kid and for many years afterward. I do remember watching this Emmy telecast with my family. Perhaps our coziest togetherness moments were watching awards shows and ripping the stars to shreds from our living room ("Oh my God, she's gotten FAT!" "Worst toupee ever!" "She's drunk." "You know he wears a girdle, right?" "HIDEOUS dress!" "Gayest guy in Hollywood.") When Duke got up there we all started shrieking, "What's WRONG with her???" and my dad's going, "Drugs! She's on drugs!"
RIP, Patty Duke.
It sounds just like my house. :)
But all along she was just signing her words
Desi looks concerned
RIP Batty Duke
The presenters are Monty Hall and.........? Is that Julie Christie? Patty had a rough upbringing, starting with her tyrant managers, the Ross', then the undiagnosed (for many years) manic depression/bipolar. But she soldiered on and had (in her words) a happy and productive life. RIP lovely lady.
Desi Arnaz Jr knocked up a girl in 1968 when he was only 15. She was born in 1969 when he just turned 16. A paternity test was done in 1991 to confirm he was the father. Her name is Julia. Look it up.
Ba-ba- LOOOOO
I can't decide whether she had a depressive, a manic, or a mixed episode here, but there is *something*
she was manic, so I've heard
Not sure why this popped up in feed. Sadest thing ever. 😢🙏
Strange but very good actress
Why don't you have the clip of Best Comedy series with William Windom. He won after being told his show was cancelled.
I read her book in the pauses she was signing her speech but The TV cameraman didn’t show up for whatever reason
* show down to her hand signing
This looks more like depression than mania.
and this was AFTER her Neely O'Hara role in Valley of the Dolls....LOL!
She looks fantastic, and very unimpressed with her surroundings. Love her! Some are just too special for their colleagues to bear, so they're maligned to death, once the pills wear off...
Was Lucille Ball there that night?
It is reassuring to read the many comments that acknowledge Patty Duke's unconventional behavior at this event with its pre-programmed agenda. Those of us who know her book (Call Me Anna) know that her life was a rollercoaster of woe. That she finally found some peace after a long scary ride brings a smile to us.
That's not Patty. That's Patty's identical cousin
Good American accent, I'll say that for her.
Here's a theory - this ceremony took place in June 1970. Sean Astin (Patty's son, who's paternity was not confirmed until he was an adult) was born in February 1971. Do the math - she may have just learned she was pregnant around this time. And by all accounts, she had multiple partners and she didn't even know who the father was. No wonder she seems distracted, when you think about it......
"she had multiple partners and she didn't even know who the father was"
Well, there you have it. Stray from the Lord's teachings, and you will find despair. It certainly didn't help, at least.
@@saintd_ii yeah. And judge not, lest ye be judged. Pious Hypocrite.
@@Harringtonml54 You have no idea how to read the Bible in its context.
@@saintd_ii LOL
@@Harringtonml54
There's nothing humorous about it misunderstanding The Bible.
The pop-culture notion that judgement is bad all the time and that we're never supposed to judge anyone "because Jesus says so" that could not be farther from the truth; judging is in fact a Biblical concept, though you would be correct on Christians sometimes judging out of spite instead of love, though they generally judge all peoples to a Christian standard where this is unbliblcal. The verse you're specifically referencing is Matthew 7:1
"Do not judge so that you will not be judged."
However, you're forgetting the latter part of the same statement by Christ. I'd recommend reading it in full and not making the same mistake of so many "Christians" who fling that verse around, many of which who come across as only culturally Christian.
You can tell she was in a negative head space. Look at her eyes, they tell everything
What year was this?
1970
She didn’t seem so high to me but what the hell was all the grabbing and angry handling of the trophy?
She wasn’t high. She was in a manic state.
Spaced out !!
Desi Arnaz Jr. he was only 17 then
0:07 .. that's NOT RICHARD!!!
Desi Arnaz, Jr. was her boyfriend, and he's with her there.
He was 17, she was 24.
Milton Berle - the selfish, insecure ham he was - desperately trying to get Art Carney off the stage. So glad Art stayed on the stage here
Design Arnaz was her date !!
Uno de los peores momentos en la vida personal de Patty Duke.
