- Paul Muni's is one of the more unique attempts at vocal disguise used by a mystery guest, answering the questions with his violin!
MYSTERY GUEST: Paul Muni (stage and film actor, best remembered for playing the title role in the 1932 version of "Scarface")
PANEL: Dorothy Kilgallen, Fred Allen, Arlene Francis, Bennett Cerf - บันเทิง
![What's My Line? - Van Johnson; Mary Healy [panel] (May 22, 1955)](/img/n.gif)
Lack of recognition to the man who invented modern acting. Paul Muni is among the greatest actors of all time
@Ed Miller The general public.
People never give him enough credit. He walked so Brando, Clift and Dean could run.
I have every film Muni performed in (with the exception of Seven Faces, which is considered lost) and it is interesting to watch his progression through the years. A few of his early works, his acting style was heavy handed. The more experience he got, the mellower he became.
I like movies from the 1930s, so Paul Muni is a familiar face to me. Scarface, I am a Fugitive from a Chain Gang, The Good Earth, etc.
Who can forget his face at the end of "I'm a Fugitive from a Chain Gang"?
The first guest, Al Fowler, died just this year at the age of 93. When he passed in January 2020, he had outlived his wife, to whom he was married for 70 years.
It was very nice of you to share that. I hope everything is ok. God bless
Love to hear the life stories of the guests; I worried he might have died young with such a dangerous job. And married at 23, so I assume the "pretty girls" he referred to in Iowa was his wife!
A very important job, especially nowadays, w/ more frequent hurricanes than in the past.
Probably the most underrated actor of Hollywoods golden age
Very true.
I think that Paul Muni was in fact perhaps the most highly rated, or at least highly regarded actor ever to achieve stardom in Hollywood. It was only that he was never nearly as well known to the public as his great accomplishments deserved him to be.
eoselan7 I absolutely agree with your last sentence, although I think he never really received the recognition or "legendary status" he was truly entitled to during his career.
He may be underrated today, but he was my grandfather's favorite actor above any. My grandfather took me to a lot of movies in the 1940's, and I saw a lot more of Paul Muni than most girls between the ages of 6 and 16 ever did. I loved him, too.
One of the few actors we can say Advanced the culture of the United States by bringing to the screen historical figures in a believable way.
Muni was so dedicated to acting you actually believed he was the character he was playing. He absorbed your attention.
1.25 for a dog wash; boy have times ever changed. I just saw a can of Amy’s brand soup in the supermarket the other day for $5.50!
Al Fowler retired as a Captain in the Navy in 1974. He died in 2020 at the age of 94 after a distinguished career with the Navy as well as a researcher in Antarctica.
He was actually my uncle he was a great man

Paul Muni - What a presence!
I have heard some describe Mr. Paul Muni as "an actor's actor." I have watched many of his films and think that is very true. He was extremely under-rated but one of the greats.
Under rated by WHO.Anyone whoever witnessed this master s work knows exactly how great he was.Hands down the best actor of the 1930s.
@@jerryboucher5622 Many fine performances, especially in "message pictures." But it is downright embarrassing to watch him and others in "The Good Earth," playing Chinese characters.
Muni was one of the best!
From Scarface to I am a fugitive from a chain gang, to The life of Louis Pasteur, or The life of Emile Zola, Paul Muni was, undoubtedly, the best actor of All Time !!!
He won an Oscar and many people would agree with you. However, a number of important film critics said that he was often guilty of overacting, and they do have a point. I just saw "Angel on My Shoulder" yesterday, and although Muni was the star, critics, in my mind correctly, preferred Claude Rains's performance as the Devil. According to TCM, by 1946 when this movie was made, Muni's career was on a downswing with the public and he hoped this movie would restore some luster. The reviews were such that he did not make another movie for 7 years.
The Good Earth is a masterpiece . Did you all know that Bette Davis wanted the part of O lan but Paul Muni just didn't like Bette Davis thankfully Lusie Rainer got the part of O lan
For Louis Pasteur he won the best actor award !
Damn Paul Muni was a shy man as they say in real life.He got the hell off that stage quick.
Another time capsule into the recent past! We who have grown up with weather satellites can easily forget that hurricanes had to be tracked the hard way back then. The pilot refers lightly to it, but it's clear that he and his colleagues were doing dangerous and strenuous flights repeatedly so that those of us on land would have a better warning of where and when the storms would strike the coast. Bravo, guys!
That's such a big part of what makes these shows so much more valuable than just as entertainment-- though it's astounding how completely entertaining the show remains after all these years!
They still fly into hurricanes.
@@asdfjklol was just gunna agree with the last commenter. The best way to track a hurricane is to fly inside it especially into the eye of the storm. The only difference being they used to hand draw the size and hand plot the eyes path back then where as now it's much more technical
Dorothy's got her GIRLY look in gear tonight, and she does it so well. The two most charming, alluring, glamorous gals ever on one program, Misses Kilgallen and Francis. ( I, personally, add Betsy Palmer to my trifecta. )
Muni, never is underrated but is more overlooked. He has been prase for his incredible talent. Even when Hollywood was at the Golden age, muni stood out among the all time greats.
Paul Muni, still so handsome
Hello Laura how are you doing?
Paul Muni was so talented yet very modest despite his exceptional acting abilities.
I really enjoy watching these early episodes of WML. I was only 8 when this episode aired. We got our 1st tv in 1955 just in time for me to see the mouseketeers. These early episodes help me fill in a part of my early life.
I love PAUL MUNI… I watch his movies over and over…. ANGEL ON MY SHOULDER,,,
Fred Allen in his glasses makes him look distinguished. Not everyone can pull off the thick black glasses.
I liked Robert Q. Lewis for that reason.
So much class on this show. John Daly was incredible.
He uses his initiative to flip extra cards very wisely; he flipped all the cards for the 2 young girls and that was just right. And, he doesn't overuse this initiative. He does it almost always when it's appropriate.
It was a different time then. Women even wore gloves.
I think they embarrassed Paul Muni when they said he couldn't play. But I am glad he was on the show. Wonderful actor.
yeah I felt bad for him D: I'm not sure how seriously he took the violin but if he was at all serious, ouch!
I'm from Waterloo, Iowa. That's kinda cool seeing another fellow native on a television show.
So nice to watch a show like this.
This was a very charming episode all around - Dorothy, Arlene, and John joining Fred and Bennett in the glasses-wearing, the impressive hurricane chaser pilot, and the lovely pair of dog washer ladies!
Allen's mention of"Renfrew of the Mounties" was in reference to the storybook series by Laurie York Erskine. In the radio and television adaptations, Douglas Renfrew often delivered long monologues, as John Daly was prone to do at times during the show.
Muni who won one Oscar for "The Story of Louis Pasteur." At the time of this show, Muni was starring on Broadway, as Harry Drummond in the play "Inherit the Wind." (which was based on the life of Clarence Darrow). He was forced to leave the play due to surgery removing his left eye but returned to the play later and won a Tony Award for the role in 1956.
I found it interesting that Paul Muni in spite of the fact that he was so well known and also an Oscar winner, was only in 29 films in his nearly 40 year film career.
His obnoxious wife was to blame for that.
@@nadyarossi5102 What the hell you talking about
@@jerryboucher5622 Refresh my memory, please. I love Paul Muni! Real name...Muni Weisenfreunde.
When I saw the two girls walk out, the first thing that crossed my mind was The Trouble With Angels
$1.00 to wash a poodle.
my, how times have changed.
PAUL MUNI.....he would be the TOM HANKS of our time...no role he couldn't do.
In looking at his Wikipedia entry, it appears that later during the month he filmed this, he had to give up his Tony award winning role in Inherit the Wind in order to have serious eye surgery, but was later able to come back to the play--a true professional.
No way not Tom hanks
It is told that Marlon Brando looked up to or had Paul Muni as an idol.
I believe this statement.
Brando's connection to Stella Adler exposed him to the Yiddish theatre where Muni had worked since an early age -- once playing an eighty year old when he was only twelve years of age. Fredric March -- of all people -- was also an early influence on Marlon Brando.
30th anniversary of the Scopes trial....that puts things in perspective how far away 1955 was.
If you haven't already seen it, you might be interested in watching this episode of TTTT, which featured the real life John Thomas Scopes!th-cam.com/video/4CVH3IISko0/w-d-xo.html
I was born in 1955. Believe me, it WAS a long time ago! ;)
Ten years after World War Two..
Greatest actor ever.
Paul was to have serious eye cancer and lose his left eye in September of 1955. This was right before this all hit.
One of the greatest actor of all time
You passed away 55 years ago today, half a century. You made your mark in the world and are never forgotten. R.I.P, Great One!
Bennett is very handsome without his glasses!
Hello Jaqueline how are you doing?
I would love to know what Paul Muni was saying to Fred Allen. His comments seemed quite animated. Two true stars of the golden age of entertainment.
That ending was precious
Thanks very much, as ever.
Happy 127th birthday to Paul Muni, the actor among the stars. R.I.P., Great One.
Great memories thanks so much for this!
At 5:30, Fred asks if John has ever seen Renfrew of the Mounted when he's off his horse. That was a reference to the fictional character Douglas Renfrew, a Mountie who was popular from the 1920s to the 1940s. He was the subject of 10 books, 17 short stories, 2 movies, and a radio series from 1936-1940 called "Renfrew of the Mounted". This was during the period when Fred was a giant on radio. (Aside: anyone who likes the cartoon character Foghorn Leghorn should know that it was closely based on Fred Allen's radio character Senator Claghorn.) Oddly, since the contestant at the time of Fred's question was a pilot, Renfrew was a pilot with the Royal Flying Corps before becoming a Mountie.
Sen. Claghorn, Kenny Delmar, I wish he had appeared as a mystery guest and see if Fred could ID him.
Fred was the only one who laughed out loud at the lox and bagels joke, lol. He was just a kid at heart 8)
Same as Hal Block😅
If I recall I think Ed Wynn also did a Violin. With high notes as yes and a low note for no.
+FelineIce Yes. This approach is much less obvious.
Wynn accidentally conked himself in the face when he played on this show.
The last challenger reminds me of Tom Hanks at a comparable age. And I was shocked that nobody guessed his line.
John was absolutely correct. The actual canal is only about 20 km long on the Pacific side and only about 4 km long on the Atlantic side going through the Gatun locks before entering Limon Bay into the Caribbean Sea. In between is the very irregular shaped Lake Gatun with islands to navigate around and arms of the lake to avoid. Undoubtedly, there's an optimum path through the lake where the water is deepest that a trained pilot would know about.
Ironically, I was talking to a native of Panama during a church BBQ today.
I hate that a viewer in a previous episode, made Mr. Allen subconscious of the bags under his eyes, and encouraged him to wear glasses. Smh.
Actually Fred was thankful to the viewer for the suggestion and Arlene and Dorothy agreed it was a improvement 😊
One of a handful of--by my standards, at any rate--genius actors. And for the record, I'm crazy about Fred Allen.
Love this man look what he did to his life...good going Paul M......u were not view like u should have been VIEW...T.Y...PAUL MUNI....love all the movies that u did..and u had it ALĹLLL PAUL MUNI..YES BY ALL OF US PAUL MUNI......They should have done this to you PAUL MUNI 😉 👍 😀 😜 👏 😄 😉 👍 BRAVO BRAVO BRAVO BRAVO BRAVO BRAVO BRAVO BRAVO TO U PAUL MUNI 👏
Muni was legendary in "I Am a Fugitive from a Chain Gang."
Love the Navy hurricane hunter. Before satellites, some seriously dangerous work (sounds like).
Still is! The USAF does that job now, using C-130s.
That was really nice of the host to flip the cards to 50 for the dog washing girls. They didn't have to split 25 they each got it
Thanks for posting!
14:35 Bennett, "Don't have anything to do with elephants," He must have been refering to last week's elephant trainer who turned out to be a car thief. See the comments on that episode for more information. th-cam.com/video/lS9R7g6e0PQ/w-d-xo.html
I noticed they didn't mention Mr. Mitchell's fate.
There are two famous instances of criminals appearing on game shows, both serial killers. Edward Wayne Edwards was on To Tell the Truth and the Daytime What's My Line. Rodney Jame Ocala was on the Dating Game. I guess narcissism got them better of them.
Frederich Meshilem Meier Weisenfreund. I can see why he went by the stage name Paul Muni in show business.
Dorothy confirmed that Fred Allen's glasses are of the Harold Lloyd variety at the beginning
This TV appearance was a disappointment ... would have loved to have heard one of the greatest actors if not the greatest of all time speak as himself away from the stage and screen.
WML NOT a talk show 😊
If Paul Muni is unfamiliar to anyone reading this, get ahold of his 1937 masterpiece "The Life of Emile Zola". It was Warner Bros big prestige picture of the year, starring Muni as the great 19th-century French author. Sound boring? Wait until Alfred Dreyfuss (the great Joseph Schildkraut in his Oscar-winning performance) is falsely arrested and sent to Devil's Island and Zola (Muni), aging, famous, self-satisfied, is roused from his indifference through a talk with his old "starving artist" pal Paul Cezanne (U.S. debut appearance by Vladimir Sokoloff) in a beautiful, touching scene...and Zola decides to jump into the fray and defend Dreyfuss in some of the most incredible courtroom scenes ever filmed. Best Picture Oscar of 1937, with a fabulous score by Max Steiner. Never heard of Muni, Schildkraut, Sokoloff, Donald Crisp, Henry O'Neill, etc?? Then prepare to encounter the BEST that Hollywood's Golden Age had to offer. LR
Dorothy kilgallen looks lovely and beautiful
To me she looks ugly and this episode, she looks funny.
Bennett does it again! Paul Munney, it's Mew-nee.
Muni😊
God how I miss this show
All 700 plus videos here, no more missing any😊
I'm not sure if I get more of a kick out of Fred Allen pushing his humor, or Bennet Cerf attempting humor...haha
John must have gotten very familiar with the decor of the ceiling when those two were on.
Fred is nearly always funny. Bennett was funnier in book form. We had at least one of his kids joke books in the 60s.
Muni lived 12 more years but I would be curious how many would recognized him before he wrote his name
Arlene has lovely glasses
Yes Arlene is also classy and beautiful 😊
Did the panel ever ask like this:
- are you NOT (person X)?
- are you NOT (person Y)?
and so on.. until they got the famous guest?
Probably wouldn't have been tolerated.
Why would they allow the last guest to say he was from the "Canal Zone"? That gave away a big part of the answer! Maybe it was unintentional, and even John Daly was caught off-guard, but that's why you ask the guest where he's from before the show - so there are no surprises!
It didn't matter, they didn't guess his job😅
Mr. Buehler moved to Florida eventually, and died in 2001 (age 85), after a nice retirement of Methodism, Shriners, Panama Canal Society, and VFW stuff. (And grandchildren.)
The Dodgers had three days of inactivity during the week preceding the airing of this episode. The reason was mentioned: Hurricane Connie. The storm was the cause of 11 deaths in New York, 6 each in New Jersey and Pennsylvania, 14 when a boat capsized in Chesapeake Bay and 5 in Washington, DC due to a hurricane related traffic accident. The storm turned inland over Cape Hatteras and then followed Chesapeake Bay into central Pennsylvania, before crossing Lake Erie into SW Ontario and along Lake Huron before the storm finally broke up around Sault Ste. Marie.
Connie dumped heavy rains on New York City, causing flooding of subways and homes, plus wide scale power outages. The storm’s track kept the city in the right front quadrant of the storm for a long time, bringing the strongest winds and heaviest rain from ocean laden clouds.
Connie stopped the Dodgers the way no team was able to in 1955: dead in their tracks. Nine inches of rain fell within a 24 hour period over the city and Ebbets Field was the closest of the major league ballparks to the Atlantic, about 7 miles from the shoreline. Here’s some newsreel footage of the floods effect on New York City and elsewhere. th-cam.com/video/-VgohWzxyN0/w-d-xo.html
And here’s a picture of flooding near what was then known as Idlewild Airport (now JFK). It is about 1 mile from where I lived for the first eight years of my life. I was approaching my third birthday (about 3 months later) and don’t remember this storm, but according to family stories, Hurricane Hazel in 1954 was the one that caused significant problems as it blew the skylight off the 2-family house that we owned. There were no family stories about Connie. www.weather.gov/images/mhx/6a00d8341c90b153ef0192abb541dc970d.jpg
The Dodgers-Giants game at Ebbets Field on Wednesday was called in the 7th inning. And then the Dodgers were unable to play again until Sunday. Not only were field conditions and conditions in NYC terrible, but it is likely that it was difficult for the Phillies to get from Philadelphia (where they had been playing the Pirates) to Brooklyn until they were able to get in a doubleheader on the day of this What’s My Line episode.
There was one more oddity for the Dodgers this week: of the five games they were able to play, only the game on Monday went the regulation nine innings. In addition to the rain shortened game, all the others went into extra innings. But the players would have been a bit more rested than usual for a doubleheader where both games went into extra innings. Furthermore, the Monday game was a make up game.
It took 23 innings for the Dodgers and Phillies to battle to a split of their doubleheader on August 14. In the opener, shades of the final game of the 1950 season, Robin Roberts bested Don Newcombe in 10 innings. Fortunately, not nearly as much was at stake for the Dodgers this day.
In the opener, Phillies jumped into the lead when their first four batters in the second inning reached base. Third baseman Willie Jones and second baseman Granny Hamner led off with singles and first baseman Eddie Waitkus walked. Left fielder Jim Greengrass doubled home two runs. The Dodgers answered back on a single by Carl Furillo and a homer by Don Zimmer.
That was all the scoring until the tenth. Center fielder Richie Ashburn led off with a single and shortstop Bobby Morgan bunted him to second. After right fielder Glen Gorbous flied out, Jones singled in the go ahead run.
The Dodgers had runners on first and second with one out in the bottom of the tenth. But Roberts got Duke Snider to ground into a double play to end the game.
The nightcap matched Murry Dickson against Carl Erskine. Neither of them made it past the seventh inning as each of them gave up three home runs. Greengrass (moved to right field in game two), catcher Stan Lopata and left fielder Del Ennis connected with solo homers against Erskine, while the Dodgers countered with a two-run homer by Roy Campanella and a pair of solo homers by Furillo. The Phillies managed one other run against Erskine so the game was tied 4-4 after 6 innings.
For the next six innings, two Philly relievers and three Dodger relievers hurled scoreless relief. Karl Spooner came in the game in the game in the top of the 13th and retired the Phillies in order. In the bottom of the inning, Bob J. Miller began his third inning of work. Pee Wee Reese beat out a dribbler between the mound and home plate and then was forced at second on Snider’s bunt. Campanella flied out but Gil Hodges kept the inning alive with a double. Furillo then came through with his third RBI of the game for the winner.
On Monday, August 8, there was only one run scored in all of major league baseball. Originally there were no games scheduled for that day, but Dodgers played the Cubs because their game scheduled for the previous Saturday was rained out.
Newcombe was matched up with Sam Jones and the game was scoreless through 7½ innings. Jones allowed four base runners in the second, but because Campanella was caught stealing by catcher Harry Chiti, they left the bases loaded when Newk grounded out. The Dodgers loaded the bases again in the fifth, but this time they were stranded when Campy hit into a force play.
In the bottom of the eighth, second baseman Gene Baker stepped to the plate with one out. Previously, he had two of the five hits off Newcombe: a single and double. This time, he hit it over the ivy and the Cubs had their lead.
In the ninth, Jones retired the Dodgers in order, striking out two of the three batters. For the game, he struck out seven and walked six while also hitting a batter in the shutout. It was a typical performance for “Toothpick Sam”. At age 31, this was his first full season in the majors and he led the National League in strikeouts (198), walks (185) and hit batsmen (14). He also led in losses with 20, but he showed other flashes of greatness with a no-hitter in May. In 1959 he won 21 games.
The shutout completed a three-game sweep of the Dodgers, something they could have sorely used a few months earlier when they were in contention and the Dodgers swept them at Wrigley. It was also only the second loss for Newcombe against 18 wins.
The Giants were waiting for the Dodgers to return to New York for a series at Ebbets Field. On Tuesday, the Giants jumped on top in the first inning on a single by left fielder Whitey Lockman and a homer by center fielder Willie Mays off Johnny Podres. In the sixth, the Dodgers broke the shutout by Ruben Gomez on a one-out single by Furillo, a two-out single by Podres that sent Furillo to third and an infield hit by Don Hoak. Then they tied it in the seventh on Jackie Robinson’s RBI single.
The Giants threatened in the eighth with two outs on back to back singles by second baseman Wayne Terwilliger and Lockman. But the Dodgers brought in Clem Labine to retire Mays to end the threat.
The Giants batted for Gomez in the tenth as Labine retired his seventh straight batter since entering the game. Paul Giel came in to face the Dodgers in the bottom of the inning. After retiring the first two batters, Furillo and Zimmer singled. The Giants waved in Marv Grissom. Newcombe batted for Labine and beat out an infield hit to load the bases. Hoak then worked out a walk to force home the winning run.
Roger Craig started for the Dodgers as the storm clouds gathered on Wednesday and he had trouble finding the plate in the first inning. He walked Terwilliger, hit Lockman with a pitch and then walked Mays to start the game. Runners held on a shallow fly ball to center by third baseman Hank Thompson, and it looked like Craig might get out of the inning on a ground ball to Hodges. But Hodges’ error allowed two runs to score before Craig escaped further damage.
The Dodgers came right back in their half of the first with three runs off Ramon Monzant. Doubles by Snider and Hodges were key blows in the inning and Jim Gilliam’s infield hit drove in the go ahead run. Then Snider and Hodges added RBI singles in the third to make the score 5-2 and send Monzant to the showers.
The Giants rallied in the fifth. After Terwilliger singled, Craig walked Lockman and Mays and Spooner was brought in to pitch. Thompson greeted him with a double to right. Two runs scored, but just when it looked like the play was dead Mays tried to catch Hodges napping. But Hodges threw him out at the plate (no assist for the right fielder). Thompson went to third on the play, so the Giants had the tying run 90 feet away and only one out. But Spooner got right fielder Don Mueller to ground out to second, Thompson holding. Bobby Hofman was sent up to bat for first baseman Gail Harris and Spooner struck him out to end the threat.
When Spooner retired Lockman and Mays in the top of the seventh, he got credit for the victory. At this point the tarps came out to cover the infield. It would be many days before they were taken up. Meanwhile, another potentially formidable foe was looming during the upcoming week: Hurricane Diane. Hurricane hunters were already tracking the storm.
Both Connie and Diane were retired from the list after that year, Diane was weaker(about 80 MPH winds to Connie's 120) but it followed a similar path along the Eastern Seaboard initially(the difference being Diane headed out to sea whilst Connie headed to Toronto). 20 inches of rain dropped along already saturated areas, leading people, and the NHC today, to see them as a single weather event in two parts.
I first heard about Paul Muni in an Al Pacino interview.
Turner classic movies HAS shown muni's first film the valent 1929. Got up at 4 oo am to see it . Here's hoping they run it again.
You can find almost any movie on utube free😊
Ingenious to answer with a violin!!!
Paul muni ❤️✨
The flat-top was a dead giveaway that the first one was in the armed services.
Also called crew cut😊
Has anyone noticed how many times various members of the WML panel mangled the names of the mystery guests? Al Carney for Art Carney; Jimmy Gleason for Jackie Gleason; Paul Mooney for Paul Muni and many more. Bennett Cerf was the most frequent offender, and this from a respected publisher and man about town. When Art Carney appeared on the show several years later, he took the opportunity to remind Mr. Cerf about the gaff with his name.
Never noticed this myself, but I'll keep my ears peeled now. :)
I believe "Mooney" was the accepted pronunciation for his name. Many people referred to Ramon Navarro as "RAYmon", which wasn't correct. Generations later, things like that get lost to time.
Paul Muni was as handsome as he was talented. He was the complete package.
I always said Benicio Del Toro was a reincarnate of Paul Muni he was born the same year Muni died.Both are great actors who sometimes did always pick the right script.
@@pearlkrabs Interesting fact: Muni always consulted his wife. Bella, regarding every aspect of his career, including which scripts to choose.
@@DmPmRr1959 He may have also been whipped.
@@pearlkrabs Yup. That occured to me as well.
This episode began to look like "What's My Line on the Eye Chart"!
😂
Representing Waterloo, Iowa!!! We get plenty of twisters here but no hurricanes, thank God.
Good job. I'm representing, too. I was born in Waterloo six months before this episode aired. My father worked at John Deere.
An ancester of mine fought Napoleon’s army at Waterloo, back in 1815, but I think that was some miles away from Iowa.
I have seen Scaface the original movie and is acting is par excellence!
Very clever of Paul Muni. He didn’t shake Dorothy’s hand; I think he missed her by accident; perhaps because he was nervous?
I looked a second time and he does indeed shake her hand briefly as he talks to Fred.
Nice looking fellow Paul movie
I was surprised that one of the dog washers had sun glasses on. I was also surprised that boat pilot said straight out that he was from Canal Zone. A dead give away. A slip perhaps? Any insights? (I glean almost as much from the comments as from the show! Thank you all.)
one possibility is that her vision was impaired, or even if she did not normally have to wear sunglasses, the lights of a television studio required same
Another possibility was that she broke her regular glasses and had to wear the sunglasses until they were replaced. If the prescription was bad enough, she couldn't function without spectacles. She could also have a black eye and was selfconcious about appearing without covering it up
I thought she was blind
@@kristabrewer9363 I also assumed she was blind the way her sister helped her over to the judge's table. It also seemed like she looked straight ahead at the audience rather than at the panel, even when answering questions. I figured they just didn't mention it as to not embarrass her.
Who could predict they would name bonds after him
that last guest looked a bit like Tom Hanks from the side
I thought so as well.
Supreme movie Muni was in: The Good Earth!!!
New information on this episode. John Daly had four Scottie Dogs.
Paul Muni's violin thing was driving me CRAZY.
Muni could've played the perfect Bernstein!!
Inherit the Wind was a fabulous film, too.
They shouldn’t have said where that last contestant lived. That was too easy.
Cerf peeks out the side. Again.
Bennett Cerf never missed an opportunity to promote his company
Oh, they did have fun at times. Now we can too.
Paul Muni was great in Scarface.
Didn’t say a word
Didn’t have to
The great actor Paul Muni
The “ Original” Scarface ❤
23:37 John made a mistake. Allen asked a negative. The right answer was "No, he doesn't expect the water, you're right, yes."
I want to wear glasses for the same reason, Fred 😅 Puffy eyes
I had no idea who Paul Muni was until this show.
MOONEY? I always thought it was MYOONI
What was the tune Paul Muni played for, "no"? - I didn't recognize it, but Dorothy and Arlene did
Scarface wearing a disguise
I wonder if the first guy was family of my daughter's school's principal..... I remember we had a dinner at the school and I actually spoke to the principal's parents and that's the last I saw him but I wonder if they were family because this man could be that principal's grandfather or something..... Oh the deep holes we dig 😂
Wonder why that girl is wearing sunglasses inside 🤔
Lol i saw Daly wearing glasses for an interview (and other things) later in life and now i can find it anywhere lol ❤
Eyes sensitive to bright light 😊
@@robertjean5782 ah, makes sense....thank you ❤️
I noticed as he walked back to the panel his signature was gone...Someone at this show should have had the foresight to have guests sign-in on permanent material!
Imagine the history lost in only sixty-years!
They did, actually. The board was actually a thick removable board, and most of the signatures were preserved. Some still sell at auction houses today for a pretty penny.
shrillbert
I’ve never come across one and believe me I look!
After seeing so many of these episodes, I believe that Bennett Cerf surely cheated most of the time, often asking the obvious questions that would lead him to guessing "out of the blue", who the mystery guest was. He always knew what celebrity was in town, and for what event.
