On May 7, 2021, it is the one hundred and twentieth anniversary of his birth. On May 13, 2021, it is the sixtieth commemoration of his death. Gary Cooper was a favorite actor of my grandfather and I. We loved The Virginian, Desire, Ball of Fire, The Westerners, Dallas and many more. Few actors have such an amazing filmography.
For those that thought the interviewer was rude. It was a joke. Cooper and his brother were both fluent in French and passable in Latin due to grammar schooling in Kent, England per their mother who, while English, was of French ancestry. He's actually spoken French in at least two films.
Actually the whole thing was meant as a joke. He ignored Cooper on purpose and Cooper plays along, watch how Cooper smiles when he is drinking from the cup.
Gary's French sounds very good, he talks in French in Design for a living. I wish I could understand what he said in this video :( it looks like he said something like "thanks, although I didn't talk"
He said "c'est même pas la peine d'en parler" but there's two ways to understand that in french. Either he wanted to say "don't mention it" as a way to say "you're welcome" or he wanted to sound annoyed by saying "yeah whatever, I don't wanna talk". Hope it helped 😉
The funniest part was when Billy Wilder said "Some people talk all the time, but say nothing", and Gary Cooper smirked. It looks like Cooper knew what was going on. His face reveals subtle emotions at key points in the conversation.
Tout mon respect va à la mémoire de François Chalais qui a interviewé les plus grandes pointures du cinéma Hollywoodien, celles de devant et derrière les caméras. Sans rire, on peut dire que son CV est en béton... 🙂👏
Thank you, 4MaryAnna! I am a Brazilian girl, and I love Gary Cooper forever. I love American movies, the best in the world. My dream is to one day be able to stand next to Gary in other lives, rs This journalist is an idiot and we should not give importance to him. Good week! kisses
Gary Cooper Gary Cooper is, you can spend 100 years and everyone knows it is. But this French idiot who is? Gary Cooper made over 100 movies and this idiot who left the world? Billy Wilder should at least have spoken to Gary Cooper and have introduced it in the interview. I hated it!! Gary Cooper will always be remembered, always! Forever! Gary Cooper knew French yes. It has always been an intelligent man, educated and just not say anything because it is very polite. I love Gary !

LOVE IT, great ending, Coop gets te last word witha smile.
Gary was a sweetie! I love how he just brushed that reporter off like the reporter did to Coop.

An even better commentary on Cooper's grande patience et son coup de gras au fin! C'est perfect! 😘
I thought he went to grammar school in Bedfordshire?
What an exquisite video! It must have been someone absolutely dreamy and wonderful who sent it to you!
Gary Cooper. ❤
Magnifique archive. Merci!
