As an actress she is brilliant, as a person she is amazing. Her life and vitality are a real breath of fresh air, she is so full of energy and very articulate. Ruth really lived every minute of her life. A lesson for us all I think.
Ruth Gordon lived next door to Katherine Hepburn but, in her comment about Greta Garbo, failed to mention that she also lived two blocks away from Garbo who lived in quiet seclusion down the block from us when we lived on East 52nd St, Manhattan. Julie Harris also lived around the corner. It was a paparazzi-free zone in those days and everyone ignored celebrities except when the celebrity, Julie Harris in this case, sail hello first.
What a magnificent human being and bright light Ruth Gordon was. I love that she always spoke to the audience, not to Dick, when answering his questions, realizing, as Dick never seemed to understand, that it is always about connecting with the people in the audience during the conversation, not about him.
Gordon won an Oscar, a Primetime Emmy, and two Golden Globe Awards for her acting, as well as three Academy Award nominations for her writing died 1985
So...surprise me tonight. Which one do you LIKE the most? Is there one.you would like to do to me? I would love to know....would really get me excited to imagine if I know for real...
Two words for you: Estelle Parsons. If you dont know who that is, she played the part of Blanch Barrow in the 1968 movie Bonnie and Clyde, and also played Roseanne's mother in Roseanne.

OMG I AM IN TEARS !! Her dad made 37 dollars a week as a foreman in factory worker, yet gave her 50 dollars to go to NYC ..AWESOME !!!!
Have never seen Woody Allen this quiet. Hasn't uttered a word.
That's the talk-show format. He's done his part already.

She's so honest and down-to-earth! Refreshing! Seems like a great lady!
A much over used word today -
authentic Ruth is the embodiment of being authentic. I loved how quickly she jumped to Great Greta Garbo. John Sivorn.
She has such integrity. It seems rare these days
I LOVE THIS! Please post more RUTH. she's my idol and I quote her all the time!
Great actress, very interesting person.
"interesting" indeed.

I adore her.
Ruth Gordon is the consummate storyteller. Even Woody Allen, who liked to interrupt other talk show guests with one liners, is in rapt attention.
Very attractive women. I've Always seen her as an older women in films. But I'm taken aback how beautiful she is and she must be in her sixties.
She was about 73 or 74 here...
There was only one.
Gordon won an Oscar, a Primetime Emmy, and two Golden Globe Awards for her acting, as well as three Academy Award nominations for her writing died 1985
Love you Ms Gordon 😘
You talk a lot on these talk shows I have seen on TH-cam. I enjoy it very much.
Allen owes his success to knowing how and when to listen.
Hamburger Hamlet---was a great place! An institution.
I Love Ruth.
She was a bitch in real life hun !
Maricar Gonzales
Not to me! §•)~
@@theholyknuckleduster5495 She wasn't wtf
There is a restaurant chain also named "Hamburger Hamlet" - with locations nationwide...Thanks for posting this clip!
Woody Allen is giving Ruth Gordon the crazy psycho look.
Gordon is so brilliant and watch this and compare it to her performance in Rosemary's Baby you realize how much she made of that role
Love her !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
hamburger heaven and hamburger hamlet both existed
She is so fascinating
Interesting that Woody later married "Rosemary Woodhouse!" I wonder what Ruth would have thought of that whole scenario as it unraveled....
Dick always asked his guests about Garbo. I think that is the one celebrity he was desperate to get on his show, but she never broke the mystique.
sim sim simmmmmmmer down Ruthie.
I think the video description is incorrect. Woody Allen is charmed by her story.
I want to know about the phone-call.
nice!
I think she may have meant Hamburger Hamlet.....
It was Burger Heaven on 62nd and Lex
And 53rd off Fifth and Madison...they're still around but that one closed.
Creepy scary woman in Columbo - try and catch me. ...I nearly shit myself!!
Too funny
So...surprise me tonight. Which one do you LIKE the most? Is there one.you would like to do to me? I would love to know....would really get me excited to imagine if I know for real...

I really want to like Ruth Gordon, but she really rubs me the wrong way.
You are an idiot
no one has a more annoying voice than this actress; she almost ruined "Rosemary's Baby" (I know she won an oscar for it)
Warren Logan She was terrific in that. Polanski directed that film brilliantly.
Two words for you: Estelle Parsons. If you dont know who that is, she played the part of Blanch Barrow in the 1968 movie Bonnie and Clyde, and also played Roseanne's mother in Roseanne.
go home, you're drunk
You are an idiot
Her voice is fantastic. Your idiotic post is the only annoying thing here.
