She said goodbye directly into the camera to the people watching at home. What a lady!
yes, very classy... with a display of genuine warmth
70 years old here….. Omg….her genetics were something else. Icon❤️
I like that Marlene doesn’t sit there and entertain so to speak and the programme doesn’t make her do that either. She’s not there for cheap laughs and such. She’s there to talk about her work and she takes it seriously and responds matter of factly. I like her facial expressions when she finds something a little ‘odd’ and corrects the interviewers believes and takes any dramatics away so the conversation don’t turn speculative.
So sad. She lost her beloved BERLIN.....she had to do all of this...to go on....she never got over the loss of her home. Never...regardless what she is saying...could not speak truth. Or they would have called her a neesi...
Yeah this is the best sentences arrangement im looking for to picture Marlene in this interview
Watch Berlin fall in 45. It’s heartbreaking. Only TH-cam can you find it.
Love her attitude in terms of working and duty. She’s really saying nothing negative about anybody. A great person , a wise person , and a real diva in the positive way of the word.
Well for someone who trafficked their kid to another woman...
Except in while in Britain in 1939 she did say live over German radio *Hitler is an idiot* (and Hitler deserved it) other than that, she was quite a great person
@@jimhuffman9434 i wish people badmouth Stalin as they do with Hitler. After all Stalin killed five times more people and no one turns a hair. If Stalin's victims had ben jews, maybe....
@@chrissinclair4442 what do you mean
@@gonzalov5452 Marlene was a controlling attention hoe and bi swinger. She seemingly went on to have a female secretary groom her daughter, supposedly in her late teens I believe. Her daughter and media has talked on this sparingly, but there may have been other people she tried to pimp her daughter to. Some have thought Marlene did this to always keep her daughter close and made to feel like no one could love her so she would only have mommy.
My gosh, i am glad to have discovered Marlene Dietrich this year.
Gosh, she was absolutely breathtaking and a great actress ahead of her time . This interview is good to see her true self and personality.
❤❤❤
Marlene looks great here. Remember this was 40 years after she was a star at Paramount in the 1930s! She became a very good and very skilled concert performer.
Agree
Marlene was a live cabaret/night club performer before her film career. Whether hair, lighting, costuming, all the essentials to showcase an act, she knew. She got an award from make-up artists engraved, "You know as much as we do."
She still looks so beautiful here
As always
she is 70 here? OMG she is gorgeous
One of the biggest stars of all time. A legend.
That's true though...
I actually had a conversation with Marlena Dietrich in Montreal at Expo 67 where she was performing her celebrated stage show. Still a beauty she was intense, larger than life, smouldering and unforgettable. Her grandson was in my year at Carnegie Mellon University and he had nixed feelings about his film actress grandmother.
Wow! Thank you for that history. About what you talked with Marlene ?
Serious??? Please tell more 🌹🙏
That woman is mysterious and classy we will never see the likes of again. Good honest answers. Great interview. Thank you M O M D 👍🇬🇧
What an incredible woman, fascinating interview! Thank you for sharing
Hello how are you doing 👋👋👋
Glamour incarnate ! She handles the interview very well, no one could talk at her place, she was a strong person with a strong armour.What a dame
Thank you so much for uploading this again. Marlene is fascinating - in this interview she is in complete control. And she was so highly intelligent- her observations were spot on. She does come across as indeed very humble.
A very smart woman, Indeed. :) ❤️
What a treasure I have found! Thank you so much!
She was 70 here. Dam.
😯😯😯😯😯
🙌👍👍🌷
Live 20 more years age 90
I loved Marlene Dietrich german accent....its very thick
No, 76
Thank you so much!! The quality is amazing!!!
I'm glad you liked it, thanks for watching!
She loves to contradict and disagree with everyone, that was always Dietrich, her story was always how she wanted it to be, reality never impinged, one has to admire her !
I admire Marlene Dietrich.
As a British admirer of Robert Donat, I want you to know that Marlene, saved him and showed great kindness and love when he was struck down by his severe asthma condition. Marlene, is a movie legend but a lovely person with a big heart.
thank you for this information, I didn't know that!
@@marlenearchives this is on his Wikipedia page..] His eventual co-star, Marlene Dietrich, was the source of much attention when she arrived in Britain. Donat was caught up in the furor, and the stress was so great that he suffered a nervous collapse a few days into the shooting; Donat entered a nursing home.[31] The production delay caused by Donat's asthma led to talk of replacing him. Dietrich, whose contract with Korda was for $450,000, threatened to leave the project if that happened, and production was halted for two months, until Donat was able to return to work.[32]
A most impressive person.
I always thought when I was a child that Marlene Dietrich was a a larger than life, camp character, but here you see another side to her, matter of factual and non dramatic and she looked fabulous at 70! 😮
I like the way she keeps her distance and answers what she wants
She was a master. This was a great performance.
When she states that Garbo was a very unique person, that's true, be she was just as unique, if not more! I really loved her in "Witness for the Prosecution!" That is one of my favorite films still!
"Witness for the Prosecution" (1957) is one of my favority films, too. And I watch it often!
I just saw this yesterday for the first time. Great film, and what an ending!
She's also marvelous in Judgment At Nuremberg (and Judy Garland is, too.)
Captivating more so in this time of her life than ever before.
Und sie hat einen wunderbaren Humor! Und wie sie sich selber sieht, beschreibt sie großartig.
..... WELL SAID!
Phil Liverpool UK 🇬🇧
.... PS - cannot speak It, but I Love the German language; & WHAT a Culture!!
I don't believe she was 70 years old! She was still beautiful and could 😍.
Indeed she performed in Israel and caused a sensation. She sang a couple of songs in German in spite of сonventional believe that it is a big no-no in Israel. The public loved her.
And she loved Israel right back! ^-^
Much love! ♥
Wow, thanks for sharing this. She was super fascinating
Greatest Star ever lived. She's amazing in this interview. Even she is quite open here, there's always a little mystery in the air, that's her magic. I could watch and listen her for hours.
do not forget Jean Harlow,Greta Garbo ,Rita Hayworth,Marilyn Monroe,Brigitte Bardot,Elizabeth Taylor,Sophia Loren ,Vivien Leigh,Hedy Lamar ,Betty Davis,Joan Crawford as well with Marlene Dietrich
France will never forget you, madame Dietrich. Merci pour tout !
Удивительна,красивая женщина с невероятной судьбой -немка с большой буквы
When you're more beautiful at 70 than at 20...
She won’t smile or act compliant - you can feel her strong will. She remembers everything and will not have any mythologising or sentimentality. She is utterly captivating.
Why didn't the interviewers sit down and be on the same level as Marlene . Looked a bit awkward to have them standing and she having to look up at them , although they were very respectful with perfect English , in fact all three spoke perfect English .
restless legs!
Восхищаюсь и люблю Марлен она Королева и она бессмертна❤❤❤
She is so smart.
Her english is great.
She knows she is a star. Still beautiful
I was never a fan of Marlene Dietrich but I admire her strength, work ethic and her reflecting on her life. Unbelievable she was already 70 when she gave this interview! I'm 15 years younger and don't come close in looks.
This is the greatest star that ever lived.
She looks younger than a year later when her show was taped.
Karl Lagerfeld, another great German: “There is no secret to life. The only secret is work. Get your act together, and also, perhaps, have a decent life. Don’t drink. Don’t smoke. Don’t take drugs. All that helps.”
Love this o Trevor - she is gracious, grounded, funny, disdainful, discerning, clear, and has an incredible memory
BEAUTIFUL, BEAUTIFUL
BEAUTIFUL
STUNNING

Dear Rudi, many thanks for your comment. Uli from Hamburg sends a warm Hello to you❤️
Still has such a sexy allure to her even in her old age, such a beautiful talented woman she was!!
Let her sing!!!!!
Fascinating woman ❤
Wow, Is she really around 70 years old here?? She was born in 1901 and this interview is from 1971! She looks so young and beautiful...and natural!
She was born between 1898-1901, so can be 73 here!
@@marlenearchives not true! 1901!
@@marlenearchives there is a birth certificate from 1901
@@alexanderbulow4568 In one of the interviews for 1975, it was said that according to the archives of the birth rate in Germany, she is 75 years old (interview for the summer of 1975), which means that she should be 76 in December.
@@alexanderbulow4568 Then you could easily forge these documents. According to an American passport, she was born in 1903 (documents are available on the Internet). Let's not talk about the fact that they originally said that she was born in 1910.
Wow!!! what I missed but now have
26:47 Aha! She had a French governess in school and she had a big crush on her... that's why she always had an affinity for France!
I advise you to read the book by Marlene, it was also written there with great kindness about the governess
She's a great singer, her songs still brings up memories till date, great German icon
@@marlenearchives I didn’t know that! Thank you for the information! Marlene wrote a book? What’s it called? I’ll try to find it. :)
@@azerethroth5761 Well, she wrote a lot of books. First-ABC MARLENE DIETRICH.(Middle 60s) Second- Marlene Dietrich:Thinking(1976). Third-Some Facts about me(1990)
@@marlenearchives I never knew that, Thank you! How come more fans don't know about this? Or maybe it's just me lol!
We should be reading Marlene's books! Not Riva's....
she was 70 here WHAT A BABE
Beautiful Woman ❤❤❤❤😂😂😂😂
What a beautiful lady
Simply amazing ❤️
Madonna could have ended like this a great lady. But unfortunately she turned into trash.
I think Marlene relied a lot onto classical (and contemporary) works of culture and this is why she comes across as she does... Madonna has been relying on things hil and cool...
Great video.
She doesn't answer their question in full, why she didn't go back, but they follow up asking her why she didn't go back to Germany AFTER the war. She first focused on Hitler and why she didn't go back then. No word about later days but after a couple of minutes. To me it is clear that this has not only to do with low quality German postwar movies, but that she would have been the only movie star to return and been lost in a 'world of ghosts' as Hedy Lamarr put it, who unlike Marlene Dietrich was Jewish and didn't want to go back to Austria, where just like Marlene's German friends most of which were Jewish, all of her family, friends and acquaintances had been murdered leaving behind nothing but their memory. Germans should apologize to Marlene Dietrich in eternity for having exposed her to that unpleasant experience in 1960.
She said she did go back in 1960. The German audience were wonderful, but the Press, Or Paparazzi as it’s called today, was terrible. That’s why she hardly went back, but she did try, and still loved her homeland very much. :)
Hope that answered your question.
@@azerethroth5761 Not at all. As desparately as you are trying to imply that I asked a "question" (make no mistake: whenever I ask questions, you bet I let you know: you are the first to answer them: as you say it's your dam job to answer questions), in this particular case I merely stated facts: Marlene Dietrich got insulted by organized Nazi sympathizer mob in 1960, when she tried to pay that fing country a visit. Had no idea how low state disorganization would/had come to be after Hitler: lower than Hitler? Who would have thought?! Today, Marlene Dietrich or any other respectable personality, after being mobbed at the airport would return right back to where she/he came from knowing what a mistake she/he made to come to visit garbage like that in the first place.
- However it's true: her audience (just a minority) were a treasure.
@@monoecumsemper Why you attacking me? xD I was just informing you her answers to why she never went back after 1960.
@@azerethroth5761 wasn't attacking you but your uncertainty what to make of postwar official Germany.
@@monoecumsemper I didn't say anything about post-war Germany, I was re-stating what Marlene said and why she didn't go back after that.
Any further into the years, Marlene wouldn't have had the energy to keep going to post-war Germany, Seeing as she was 71-72 here. But I know she kept up with Germany's news, like when the Berlin Wall came down, She did a phone interview about that. But travelling back and forth to post-war Germany at her age, wouldn't have been possible, since by the 80's she had already started to retired.
There just wasn't enough time, that's all, but she never stopped loving her Country.
But I'll leave you at that,
Take care. :)
Marlene...bethroned betwixt bouquets, bathed in flattering light and looking fabulous in her majestic Paul Huntley syrup ❤
Jesus Christ, i just fell in love with a dead person😩
The same thing happens to me, but I've been in love with Tyrone Power since I was a 12-years old girl, and I will love him always and forever.
@@alimolina4279 love her so much
Lolll, I am in love with her since I was a child🌹♥️🙏 The love of my life🕊
@@alimolina4279 tyrone power and Robert taylor 💘 😻 💜 💛
😂
Born in 1901 and this is 1971. Wow she looks good
To improve the quality, I slightly added sharpness, in life she would look even younger
Indeed, but research the description of what’s under the wig to find out why.
@@Ursaminor31 Yes, it sounds terribly painful
She had a perfect voice. She was a Diva. 👱🏼♀️👁️👁️ ❤️ Marlene was a Kontroverse, but She was a Star. Born in 🇩🇪⭐⭐⭐
Star in 1940 after nothing
she was 70 in 1971 ... she still kills at 70 !!!
So-called hot. My aunt resembled her and looked good at 70 too.
Interviewers were so respectful then. Of course she was legend, and there aren't really any legends today.
Marlene was the last legend....
But wasn't she having a dig at one of them, being unprofessional for not having done his background info on her, as he insinuates she is "impatient."
I absolutely adore her hairdo 😍 She looks so glamorous!
Yes, fabulous wig - she knew how to keep a good appereance! Actress thru and thru ☺️
It’s a wig
@@user-eu2me4bp7jnot a wig here her own hair
She was simply fabulous. A real star. I was fortunate to have seen her several times and to have spoken with her once very briefly.
thank you for your comment! You was lucky!
where and when did you saw her?
@@marlenearchives I first saw Marlene Dietrich at a midnight charity performance at The Theatre Royal, Drury Lane, London in about 1972. I was very poor and only could afford a seat in the very top of the theatre. There were 100s of people waiting to see her at the stage door and because I was at the top of the theatre it had taken me ages to get out so I was at the very back of the crowd. She did not wait to give autographs, I think she was overwhelmed by the size of the crowd. She was swept away, to the Savoy Hotel and as the car drove slowly down Drury Lane I was able to run along side it and had a perfect view of her. A year or so later Dietrich returned to London and did a series of concerts at The Queens Theatre on Shaftesbury Lane. I was there for the first night and now I had a better seat. Still there were crowds at the stage door but in the audience there had been many of the Hollywood greats that had been to her dressing room to see her so we got to see them as they left. Then Dietrich came out, climbed up onto the Rolls Royce and threw autographed photos into the crowd - I got one! A year or so later she gave concerts at the Wimbledon Theatre. Again I was there on the first night and now I had a seat in the front row of the stalls. Again I was there at the stage door but this time she did not give autographs but got into the car immediately. Probably the next year she returned and again I was in the front row on the first night. For most of the second act everyone was out of their seats crowding forward but I was there right at the front. Encore after encore, it was always the same formula - and we loved it. Once again I was at the stage door and this time she stayed, talking, kissing, signing programmes and my programme was passed over the heads of others, signed and passed back to me. Gradually the crowd thinned out but still she stayed until there were just a handful of us. Dietrich stopped, she looked around at us, it was as though she was looking for someone - she was and she saw who she was looking for. Me, she came over to me, took hold of both my hands, kissed both my cheeks. Said goodnight and then got into the car and drove away. I never saw her again.
@@TheClive1949 amazing story! thank you very much for sharing with us
Wow! That is amazing! You’re very lucky
I never saw her. I was too young. But I went to Berlin to visit her grave and brought her tuberoses flowers, because I read that she liked those flowers best.
I found this marvellous: "They sit on the phone and if it doesn't ring, they are offended!"
She lived her life the way she wanted
Amen 🙏🏻
She was a STAR like Garbo. There is no one like them these days
Star👎👎👎👎
@@josetorti2629 a huge star
and she could act. unlike Garbo
She's 70 here!! Amazing. What a star.
Wow......beautiful lady. I never realized how attractive she was until seeing this interview.
70 year old , no surgery, no botox, no creams or filters ... DAMN!!!
oh she had surgery
She is wearing tapes here behind her face, which lift her face up, that was something very common in the 60s 70s especially for film stars. And she used to have the very best cosmetics and aesthetics in Hollywood to preserve her myth.
@@kostasveronis5882 i know , and apparently it was beyond painful! she also performed with a very bad leg injury , on stage..she was a TANK that woman! insane!!
Articulate, tactful and fascinating
Gorgeous at 70 years old!
She looks great!!! What a voice!
Wow, she looks no older than early 50s here but is in her 70s. Utterly stunning woman.
The more I find out about her, the more I like her!
But even her age, doesn't deter her rabid fans or stop the flow of notes and bouquets across the orchestra pit!
She was a true elegant diva and not like the so called superstars today act.
I didn't even realise the interview was almost 30 minutes, it ended so quickly. She's so charismatic
I like how she speaks so slowly and thoughtfully. Unlike the female so-called "stars" of today with their rapid fire speaking and vulgar comments, trying to be funny.
That is a very general statement. There are many star that are thoughtful and intelligent
@@temeculajoe YOUR statement is a very general statement and means nothing.
@@fraenkiegoodboy1760 so true. if you ask me, 'temeculajoe' was just dropping a contribution (one of those 'temeculajoe droppings' as it were) of his own, however stupid and no matter how high the cost... or maybe he is one of those 'many stars' and was just trying to be as 'thoughtful and intelligent' as them....: honestly, who would expect him to give more, mmh ??
@@monoecumsemper Literally all he said was that there are many celebrities today that are thoughtful and intelligent. Just like how there were many stars back then who weren’t very intelligent. Marlene is a rarity in both time periods.
@@thenablade858 wtf ?? @Fraenkie Goodboy was/is right, ""temeculajoe" and you missed the point. Fair enough. Comparison was/is made to Marlene Dietrich only (the point) with no generalisation, that's why. Again: @Fraenkie Goodboy was/is right. You don't get this, you're not fit for talking to.
She was in the American Army, OMG! What a woman.
So what ? I had a housekeeper and she was a Soviet paratrooper in the Ukraine
Ouah une légende , une icone la fabuleuse la sublime Marlene Dietrich superbe une star dans toute ça splendeur
So amazingly bad ass and witty and charming and well spoken. Thanks for uploading this, never seen this
It was exclusive to Swedish TV
She is a stunning lady!
Sie ist eine der letzten großen Diven des 20 Jahrhunderts. Eine wundervolle Frau und Künstlerin !
Sie war eine wunderbare Künstlerin, einfach sehr professionell und fokussiert auf ihre Arbeit, dem Publikum ihr Bestes zu geben! Aber der Mensch und die Frau kamen da wohl zu kurz, wenn man ihrer Tochter glauben darf! Maria Riva liebte ihre Mutter, aber sie litt auch unter ihr nicht unerheblich!
Her charisma is evident. But I am surprised by the quality of this footage.
Oh yes, She is very straight-forward and beautiful! Always a treat to see footage like this 😊
My god she was a gorgeous lady
I love this German directness.
Yes. And she seems so vulnerable and strong at the same time.
Berliner ❤️
Great actress and woman. Lived to 90, great life, legacy too.
When I was young. Marlene was embodiment of perfect woman for me and still is.
Yes, She still is! ☺️
@@azerethroth5761 smiling a little would have looked good on her
70? She aged like fine wine!
I had a crush on Marlene Dietrich when I was a kid. When I saw her movies, she was absolutely gorgeous…
She is not attractive at all
When the world used to have real stars with glamour and comun sense!
What a beautiful lady.
I followed her all my life,have so many books pictures and magazine articles about her.I started learning to sing with some of her songs but changed to opera.Every 5 years i am invited to sing Lily Marlene at a world war 2th concert and listen to her version of it to get inspired.She stayed completely true to herself which i always admired.Absolute beauty but she must have been very difficult having such a huge personality.I learned a lot from her,listening and reading.Rest in Peace in Berlin Marlene💝
You are awesome person! You keep memories about Marlene alive!
OMG i once found this interview but later disappeared and then now finally.....thanks so much 🙏💋💋💋
Beautiful lady at 70 years, full of vivid memories and candidness.
FIERCE, STRONG and GLAMOUS even when having 2 men standing in front of her...NEVER INTIMIDATED!!!!
It's impossible to take your eyes off this beautiful woman .
Her nose is wide, not pretty
