If you actually read his autobiography you know he was NOT "a nice man". You are either as nasty as he was or you are easily taken by superficial charm
Absolutely magical Film and my favorite of all time. I watched it firstly when I was eight years old and I thought it was brilliant. The more I watch it, the more I love it. Thank you to all involved for bringing joy to my heart. The last time I watched the full movie was with my two daughters, only yesterday. Sooo many excellent lines throughout the movie. ❤️
Just goes to show about the media...I had never heard anything good or positive said about Tony Curtis on the media and when I met him I was expecting the Devil but he was in fact the nicest, sweetest guy I ever met. Since then I dont believe what anyone says in the media. They always get it wrong.
Media liked to demonize anyone they didnt like. We used to get all the news about the starts from print media so they used that power. If an actor is not nice to them they would spread "fake news" about them. Thanks to social media we now have direct contact with our stars.
Just because a journalist or a writer expressed an opinion that is different from yours doesn’t mean it’s “fake”. Everyone sees things differently, that’s the way people are, it’s a good thing.
He left his $60 million to his 5th wife 42 years his junior and none to any of his kids. And his 1st wife said he was totally absent in raising them and didn't give child support. He cheated on his wives. He smears other actors' reputations.
When living in Southern France and dining on Carlton hotel terrace I was approached 4 times during last 10 years by ladies over 50, telling me that I am look alike Tony Curtis. It is a great honor.
Tony Curtis is an icon. Did films back in the studio system. Knew all the old big stars. Lived a Hollywood life. Booze and drugs baby, finally kicked them both. RIP
Tony the ultimate Hollywood playboy. Slept with so many leading ladies. Appeared in a clutch of all-time classics ( a few turkeys as well of course. Law of averages ). Got hitched to several gorgeous women. Appeared in a couple of hugely successful tv franchises ( The Persuaders & Vegas ) and earned millions to boot. His biography will certainly be worth a look.
Should've not styled and colored his hair like this. Not to mention the face lift 😢 He was so handsome! Could've aged gracefully even with a full head of white hair
I saw two Curtis movies that made me realize his true talent: "Sweet Smell of Success" which was HIS movie. he just stole every scene from everybody! And a movie that is not as well known but very shocking, "The Outsider". If you can find"the Outsider" you will see a Curtis you could never have imagined on screen.
All the best actors the most familiar faces are all dead... like Tony Curtis Paul Newman Charlton Heston Steve McQueen Charles Bronson Rod Taylor they they have all passed away
@@deathlarsen7502 Raft made the movie because he played the role straight without comedic embellishment. I remember Raft from the movie; I also remember Raft from the 1930/40 gangster movies he made and how he recaptured the zeitgeist of that era.
@@StevenTorrey he hardly "made the movie" give me a break. you are wacko. a character that nobody remembers at all from an ICONIC movie with 3 Major Starts (Raft aint one of them) you attribute to the success of the movie.
@@deathlarsen7502 Jack Lemmon was not a star yet. Sinatra was considered for the Daphne choice and Lemmon absolutely KILLED it. It was a star vehicle for Marylyn, and Lemmon stole every scene he was in.
C’est sur que c’est Tony Curtis.? Je ne le reconnais pas .quel changement depuisles annees 50 60.je l’avez vu dans ces années la “ certain l’aime chaud avec Marilynn Monroe” et jack Lemon et dans Tarrace. Boulba. Avec Yul Bruner.
Tony Curtis hated Marilyn Monroe and said so in 1974 on the Mike Douglas Show. He said, "She gave very little of herself." Now he says he impregnated ger, He is lying and lived long enough to push that book. Now, in the video above -- he's wearing make-up. Was he making a film? He's got blush on, his eyebrows are tweezed. He even looks like he has lipstick on. Now it seems it's plastic surgery. He's got cheek implants, which he makes more evident by applying blush on them. He's had a brow lift and overall face lift.
He looks gay with that huge toupee. In the photo here he looks like he's had cheek implants and is wearing pink purple blush to enhance them. You're right. He never had anything nice to say about women. He criticized Natalie Wood as having facial beauty but she didn't have "boobs." He said he liked big boogs, the way some men only like blondes. He thought Natalie's sister, Lana, was the most beautiful woman he'd ever seen. He had something nasty to say about Karyn Kupcinet: "She was a dimply little girl, cute but never going to make it." His own children didn't bother with him. Curiously, in the mid-'60's, he was Jerry Lewis' best friend. Something caused a breech. He later said, "Jerry Lewis is a mean man." Like he's not? That book he wrote about having an affair with MM is pure bullcrap.
Kathleen Collins Bang on Kathleen. He was (was) good looking in his hey day but he is a horrible, spiteful man. I watched an interview with his daughter Jamie, she is so nice. She stuck up for Marilyn. That endeared me to her. Natalie's sister was probably a nice person but beautiful she was not. Your'e right he never had an affair with MM. Oh, he had an affair with everyone, he wishes. Horrible, disgruntled little old man.
no no no any number of actresses could have done Marilyns part, the difficult parts were Tony;s and Jacks they made the film, Billy Wilder the director wanted Mitzi Gaynor, very talented lady and no trouble
you are right SOME people went to the movie cos Marilyn was in it, and some went cos Tony was in it, for some reason Marilyn was a big star, no talent, but the camera loved her.
At the time, NO, he was not. It was only decades later, when her legend increased and his career waned and ultimately died, that he himself stated that he was joking because many people were chastising him for his cruel comment. Unfortunately, Tony Curtis was well known as one of the meanest men in Hollywood. Not a very good legacy, but true...
Pretty sure he said it as a joke, because people kept asking him the same question about Marilyn and the answer was OBVIOUSLY going to be complimentary, and he's said that people have taken his quote out of context and turned it into an insult, which he never intended it to be. Plus, he's also said they were having an affair in real life.

Тони замечательный прекрасный человек. Очень жаль что он страдал заболеванием дыхательных путей, которое лечится гормональным препаратом, вызывающим сильную отечность на лице и на теле. на счет Мерлин Монро это ей повезло что она встречалась с Тони. С таким красивым, привлекательным и сексуальным. Не велико счастье встречаться и быть замужем за теми, за кем она была, сомнительно, что она мечтала иметь ребенка от Миллера, хотела бы, забеременела бы в какие либо другие периоды, а так, странное совпадение, не так ли? и еще, о том, кого она действительно любила, вряд ли бы она рассказывала на всех углах, обычно об этом молчат. Тони прекрасен.
I know some proffessional basketball players who dresses up as women for a masked ball and they became so good that they all got sexually and verbally harrassed on the way they were walking to masked ball in their fishnet socks and high heels
I agree that the background music is ridiculous. Is someone trying to sell an old album? Well, the music is not very good but is very annoying. Poor production quality. I would recommend that no one watch this interview but it is a big star from yesteryear. It's too bad that we can't show a little more respect for Tony Curtis and Marilyn Monroe.
The mucic is taken from the soundtrack of the very film they're discussing. As to it being 'not very good' and 'annoying' well that's just your opinion.
A B movie actor? Stop letting your dislike of him cloud the fact that he was an excellent actor. If you had watched a wider breadth of his work then you might just catch on to the fact.
What a strange sight he was later in life. Plucked, penciled eyebrows, possible plastic surgery on his face, ridiculous 1950s comic strip wigs, a rather gay wardrobe, and that accent. But man he was a consummate performer. He never played any character better than he played "Tony Curtis."

Tony Curtis should have won an Oscar.
I think Hollywood was jealous of his great looks & amazing talent.
So brilliant in that movie. All three of them.
I met Toni Curtis, during his book signing. in Las vegas, I felt honored. he was a nice man. he passed away after vegas.
Awesome!~

He was one beautiful man.

Curtis is very respectful to his interviewer. A nice and charismatic person.
Marilyn Monroe as Sugar Kane gave her definitive performance as the endearingly vulnerable and sensual blonde.
When living in Southern France and dining on Carlton hotel terrace I was approached 4 times during last 10 years by ladies over 50, telling me that I am look alike Tony Curtis. It is a great honor.
Did they have dementia and eyesight issues by any chance?
Monroe had also just had a miscarriage that was emotionally devastating just before SLIH...
AND she was pregnant filming this and was very anxious about losing another one.
TONY WAS ONE OF THE VERY BEST, & A GREAT FRIEND...
Tony Curtis is an icon. Did films back in the studio system. Knew all the old big stars. Lived a Hollywood life. Booze and drugs baby, finally kicked them both. RIP
What a delightful back story.
i loved tony curtis..one of my first crushes at about 11 yrs. old
RIp tony!
Diane Stone same! Both he and Jack Lemmon.
Monroe was one of my early crushes and I was only 8 yrs old.
Tony Curtis has the very best Hollywood stories
Tony Curtis a real movie star. :)
He really was, the true old school
Loved the ending

That was good, it is nice to hear about star's talking about the other stars like best friends. I guess they ended up good friends anyway.
i love this movie
this guy was an interesting man, never boring, self educated, which i think is the best.
The last story in the video about the measurement guy was pure gold
Love ya Tony!
you are sweet marilyn uploading this
one of the best actors tony Curtis rip what a great legend of film
Tony Curtis quote, I could never be seen with a woman old enough to be my wife,,, always had a warm smile
Tony - the great race- man 🎉👍
i wish he would talk more about his acting with jack lemmon
Should've not styled and colored his hair like this. Not to mention the face lift 😢 He was so handsome! Could've aged gracefully even with a full head of white hair
It's a hair piece. He was bald. So I am guessing you would prefer him with a white hair piece.
He was always a very vain man. Aging naturally was never in the cards for him
True. He was rather bitchy, too. One wonders if he was bisexual. He always seemed jealous of Marilyn's popularity in general.
His daughter Jamie Lee Curtis lamented that both her parents, Tony and Janet Leigh, had to have facelifts to stay relevant and employed in Hollywood
@@jakevendrotti1496 no I don't think he was interested in men at all, he loved the ladies.
I think he's an awesome great man and I don't care how he looks he suffered ill health and he is still interesting and sparkly with great stories
TH-cam needs more commenters like you. 🙏
ONE OF MY FAVOURITE ACTOR
Tony curates so handsome no drought about that x
Special voice. Great story teller. Fine actor. Very likable actor. Jack lemon superb actor.

Tony was a hell of a actor!! And very handsome
yes he was!!
Funny & well, he was there 👍😂. Film history
That was one hell of a rug.
"Rogaine is one hell of a rug"
I thought the working class accent was an affectation for Some Like it Hot. Now I know better.
What I want to know is what year was this interview?
what's that music in the background
The ending 😂
Did not know he died but the boy did he leave his mark.
why do you have to have that lousy background music?
It's irritating and distracting and totally un-necessary
Music in the background while Tony is talking is irritating and distracting.
Hairy Neck the music is so relaxing. You dont like old music
Stony Curtis!
tigmite1 Flintstones.
just watched this and the Ann Margrock episode LOL!
Hey, it's Rip Taylor!! Oh, wait a minute.............that's Tony Curtis.
Why are Tony's eyebrows shorter than normal (in length)? What would cause this?
They are there. It's just the rest of them are gray.... don't show up on camera.
@@kjgammon1658 AH, ok, good observation!!!!
Tony Curtis used Eve Arden as an obvious model for his drag style and I am always baffled why he mentioned this once or twice and then never again.
Omg...
❤️❤️❤️
regardless of the comments. I thought it was a awesome funny movie!!!
What's with the music.
Curtis was right about Monroe. Sure it was a tragedy.
It's too bad, therer weren't any questions about Goerge Raft; George Raft really made the movie.
Hardly. Nobody remembers raft from this movie. Yeah it wasn't Curtis Marilyn or lemon but the supporting player. Please

Sally Smith It is called the frozen Hollywood plastic surgery face .
Sally Smith i think hes gay but not sure

He managed to get that book out before he croaked. Well, at least he didn't get anything from it.
I accidently clicked on a comment someone made yesterday about this. The comment was erased. I am so sorry.
He was jealous of Marilyn because she was prettier than him and got most of the attention .that didnt sit well with him. He apparently had a huge ego.
people did not went to the movies to see a tony curtis movie but went cause "some like it hot" stared Marilyn monroe!!
no no no any number of actresses could have done Marilyns part, the difficult parts were Tony;s and Jacks they made the film, Billy Wilder the director wanted Mitzi Gaynor, very talented lady and no trouble

He comes off very narcissistic in every interview. It seems he was jealous of the "it" thing that Marilyn had.
He referred to Billy Wilder as William Wyler. Sad.
I heard him say Billy over and over.
William Wyler was actually "Billy" Wyler's name ...
Fantastic orla Ki l i é fashion being made for you, WOW.
Sue that plastic surgeon!
Cheap shot.
Tony Curtis should have sue the doctor who perform plastic surgery on him.
I read that tony said kissing marilyn was like kissing hitler :/
tony was joking

Nonsense! He looks great. You should ever look half as good.
The cruel ravages of stupidity. Very not wonderful for us having to suffer seeing your dumb comment
I'm sure Marilyn Monroe would have preferred the horrors of being elderly to being dead.
Did he use the same plastic surgeon as William Shatner? They seem to have morphed into the same face.
Ory Kelly - Australian designer!
"We went out to Sandi Ego" so strange the way he says San Diego.
Curtis played a man, a woman and Cary Grant. Oscar.
Background music is annoying too damn loud and distracting.

did he have plastic surgery? looks like fillers in his cheeks. he was always a snazzy dresser ...loved him in the persuaders..
and Botox on forehead too.
Tony always struck me as a creepy horn dog. Im shocked he wasn't into men. Or maybe he was...idk
Wtf happened to his face?
Seems like a nice guy, don't know why he would disinherit all his children.
Too much silicon or hyaluronic acid in the cheeks. What're it is it's a bit too much. Anyway, his Josefine is great.
Tony Curtis acts very effeminate. He also looks effeminate.
And yet he still had more women than you.
poxy music in back grownd
It's music from the film itself, Some like It Hot.
toupee and plastic surgery
What a positively dreadful (and likely untrue) story! Curtis should be ashamed for repeating such nonsense!
this B actor is so full of himself jeez... he once said "kissing marilyn is like kissing adolf hitler!! and btw what about that baywatch wig lol
A B movie actor? Stop letting your dislike of him cloud the fact that he was an excellent actor. If you had watched a wider breadth of his work then you might just catch on to the fact.
Geez, that comparison to A. Hitler was a joke! He just wanted to point out how stupid question that was "how did you like kissing Marilyn?"
Never realized what a snobby nasty stuck up man he was. Also the plastic surgery is absolutely pitiful
