I was a professional camera lady and editor for 30yrs. This camera man needs to go back to film school I’m afraid. Absolutely pathetic film work and the friend/director was just as inept. I’m afraid I have to completely agree with the previous comment. Buddy was probably happy just because he was still being recognized and I’m sure it didn’t cost him anything but recognition no matter how poorly executed. Hopefully it was edited into something watchable because this was a complete mess.
You couldn't get a more unnerving "interview" by a bunch of amateurs. Seriously, how unprofessional a job is this? My sympathies to the late Buddy Rogers who had to tolerate such an inept, bumbling set of "admirers" traipsing over his property. What prompted you to post such embarrasing, gut wrenching set of OUTTAKES?? They are NOT becoming and certainly did not show your subject, Buddy Rogers, in any favorable light, even if he has been gone 25 years.. Wow!
It's not supposed to be a work of art but a series of impromptu glimpses of Buddy and his world, done at the behest and full encouragement of Buddy himself. Sorry you were "unnerved."
Why didn't they cut this part out with just one (1) introduction!! This was great otherwise!! Mr Rogers was amazing!! I can't believe that he was in his nineties.
Oh my gosh, I'm a Mary Pickford fanatic, THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR POSTING THIS!!!!! I'm getting chills watching this!!!
He seems like a really nice man. Looking great at the age he was. I looked him up & he passed away in 1999.
Oh! I remember his lodge there on the grounds of Pickfair and I forgot all about it. Beautiful getting to see it.!

Yes, I so agree with all that you said !! Mr Rogers was still so handsome and charming!!
It’s unfortunate that Pickfair was torn down.
I believe that this was done in 1986
So was that house part of pickfair.

It was
1986 when he was due to win the Jean Hersholt Award Honorary Oscar

Horrible interview. Absolutely horrible. There was a Hollywood treasure right in front of you and you didn't know what to do.
