I think Carole's maid should have first called police and an ambulance, when she dis- covered Carole collapsed on the floor. She should not have called Rex. Perhaps he killed Carole, if she was threatening to tell his wife about their affair, and expose him to the press. 🤷🏼♀️
OMG Ghost and Mrs Muir is one of my all time favorites..my mother just recently past away and i remember when watched it together..I was about 10..we held each other and cried..its strange favorite moment with my mom. 😢
@Jackielocks That's the way it was back then. This was not an unusual incident, but rather the accepted norm. Men/husbands were the heads of households, and the decision-makers in all matters. The choice to keep a woman's health condition from them was seen as protecting them. I'm certain that deep down, she knew.
What can I say, HM? 45 vids, all of them perfect! The best complement, I think, anyone can Receive is from the movie 'Tombstone,' when Wyatt Earp says to a dying Doc Holiday: "Thanks for always being there, Doc." Meaning, you never disappoint and you're someone always there with the goods. Bravo, HM.
My mom was a young mother of 2 when Carole Landis died, but was a big fan of both Carole and Harrison. She was so sad about Carole’s death that she never saw another Harrison movie again (and she lived until 1988).
WOW! GREAT ACTOR, WHAT A LIFE HE HAD! I hate hollywood, it destroys people's life's! And I learn it's more true than ever by watching your excellent work on this great channel... THANK YOU !
The Ghost and Mrs. Muir. I never tire of watching that movie. Like at least one other commenter, I cry at the end of that too. (Mostly the film but I cry for Gene Tierney and her tragedies.) Rex Harrison was veddy veddy well known for being veddy veddy well -- how should I say this? -- I'm not going to finish that sentence.
I love My Fair Lady. What a marvellous actor with an amazing voice. So sad about his wife Lily and I don’t think he had anything to do with Landis’s death at all. Thank you for covering his fascinating life.
Oooh! I loved Rex's Voice, Dash & Panash...lol! 'My Fair Lady'... Fantastic...& Who could dare to compare? I absolutely love most of the films by Preston Sturgis! So I loved 'The Ghost & Mrs Muir' & absolutely had to adore the creative combination of Sexy Rexy & Preston Sturgis!💓 A Wonderful Surprise ❤
Ms Landis' death was tragic and I believe it was self inflicted. From the start, Harrison and Hollywood reporters didn't get along and it's no surprise that they'd destroy him following Ms Landis' death. Just about every star in those days had affairs and failed marriages. Landis herself was married 4 times and was married during her affair with RH, so he didn't do anything she herself wasn't doing. I think he cared for CL and was devastated by her death, and it is a reminder that when you play with fire, you get burned. Can you imagine if every adulterous affair ended in suicide? My favorite of his films is TG&MM. I fell in love with him in that film and I also love Blythe Spirit. I watch both films every time they're shown.
Didn’t see the movie My Fair Lady as I went to see Rex & Julie Andre’s on stage in London I believe DRury Lane I thought Julie should have played in the movie too as her voice was totally awesome
I absolutely loved his performances in Anna and the King of Siam, and the Gost and Mrs. Muir. Other than that I found him creepy and off putting. Nobody ever knows what goes on between two people except the two, and as you mentioned both are gone.
I recall as a child seeing him in, of all things, Dr. Doolittle and my gay little heart was taken by him. Years later I saw him in My Fair Lady and thought what a creepy, loudmouthed son of a bitch. But Freddy was so hot!
Rex Harrison. was one of the few Hollywood leading men (like Robert Michum and Clark Gable) that when he entered the room you knew that a man was in the room; but with his own authoritative, dignified, polished British style. He used his voice like a musical instrument, with perfect phrasing, punctuating - he could go high or low but always poetically. I can see why they called him sexy rexy. Yes, the "Ghost and Mrs. Muir" was my favorite Rex Harrison movie too.
My favorite Rex Harrison films were King Richard and The Crusaders, The Ghost and Mrs Muir and Cleopatra with Elizabeth Taylor. I DO think that he murdered Carole Landis and that someday the truth will be known.
From what I understand he treated Julie Andrews very badly because she became The Star and not him necessarily at the time. He also made a film in the 50s. With my friend Linda now and she told me that he was absolutely impossible. I was always trying to get her in bed, but she was a good girl.A lovely ended on was a wonderful and sweet lady and I miss her so much
Great actor, great voice, but everything I've ever read or heard was that he was a terrible human being regarding many women in his life. Even the late beautiful inside and out, true humanitarian, actress Audrey Hepburn said he was very difficult to work with during the making of My Fair Lady. Wasn't hard for him to play a complete narcissistic curmugeon as Professor Higgins. I knew about Kay Kendall, a very tragic story. A life too short! May they rest in peace~
This is a very nice bit of Tosh, but it doesn't say anything about Rick Harris and the man as I was his assistant for several years when he was in his 80s and he was some piece of work had a terrible reputation with women and with colleagues, but I had no problem with him. I stayed with him for about 6 years. On tour with Ian Colbert is the play called oh d*** I can't remember something about a bird. I'm very old now. And i'm lucky, I remember anything at all, but I could tell some stories, but even in his later years, I could tell some stories, but my lips are sealed, I do not talk oh I remember the sandpiper it's in all that time I was with him I never saw a heard of his childr a p sShe told me he hated working on cleopatry said it was a nightmare of stopping and stopping go because of taylor's illnessesen
What do you think the truth is about Rex and Carole Landis? And which of Rex's films is your personal favorite? Reply to this comment and let us know!
The Ghost and Mrs. Muir is my favorite Rex Harrison movie.
Blithe spirit and the ghost and Mrs muir
I think Carole's maid should have first called police and an ambulance, when she dis- covered Carole collapsed on the floor. She should not have called Rex. Perhaps he killed Carole, if she was threatening to tell his wife about their affair, and expose him to the press. 🤷🏼♀️
I doubt he killed her, but an ambulance should have been called immediately.
I think he must've loved Kay the most.
I loved the Ghost and Mrs. Muir.
It’s such a haunting little movie ❤
Same here 🤗
@@Hobbitma same here
This beautiful movie was made in 1947- the year I was born. I cry at the tender ending every time I see it.
@@DeedraBoyer Gene Tierney had amazing range! And little Natalie Wood as her daughter... so precious 🥹
OMG Ghost and Mrs Muir is one of my all time favorites..my mother just recently past away and i remember when watched it together..I was about 10..we held each other and cried..its strange favorite moment with my mom. 😢
The Ghost and Mrs Muir is my favorite of his films.
How could you not tell someone they have Leukaemia and they’re going to die??? Who has more of a right to know? Unfathomable.

I always loved Harrison's speaking voice. I had no idea about his personal life. I could have heard him talk for hours.
What can I say, HM? 45 vids, all of them perfect!

Thank you - and Tombstone is a great 90s movie!

People's *LIVES*. Plural, not possessive.
Agree that Hollywood is destructive, dark and downright evil.

Yes, he has a creepy vibe for sure.
I love listening to your voice. It is like a whisper.
I watched the ghost and Mrs Muir as a little girl and became my favorite movie! And of course i love Dr. Doolittle 🤩
I recall as a child seeing him in, of all things, Dr. Doolittle and my gay little heart was taken by him. Years later I saw him in My Fair Lady and thought what a creepy, loudmouthed son of a bitch. But Freddy was so hot!
Excellent job, as always
Rex saw the true Hollywood back in the 40's. It has only gotten worse.
Definitely the Ghost and Mrs. Muir!
Thank you
in my opinion, kay kendall was the most beautiful, elegant woman to ever appear on screen. such a tragic, short life. she was a brilliant comedienne.
My favorite Rex movie is The Staircase with Richard Burton. They play a gay couple working as hairdressers. It's wonderful. Oh my and Oscar Wilde!!
Hi hi there, when was the staircase released?
@@valeriebartolo6983I think 1969
Dr. Doolittle ❤
“Carole had a death wish”?! Really???
I used to like his performances before I learned about his behavior with women. That changed my mind for me.
Narrator has beautiful voice.
The "narrator" is a robot. Painful to listen to.
Is it legal to keep a diagnosis form a patient?
Today, no. In the 1950s it was usually at the discretion of the doctor in consultation with the family.
Rex Harrison. was one of the few Hollywood leading men (like Robert Michum and Clark Gable) that when he entered the room you knew that a man was in the room; but with his own authoritative, dignified, polished British style. He used his voice like a musical instrument, with perfect phrasing, punctuating - he could go high or low but always poetically. I can see why they called him sexy rexy. Yes, the "Ghost and Mrs. Muir" was my favorite Rex Harrison movie too.
Wasn’t it his son Noel who sang the song for the original Thomas Crown affair, windmills of my mind?
Yes, in 1968.
Rex Harrison fell deeply in love with her, so it is so sad that his wife, Kay Kendall, died so young of myeloid leukemia.
My favorite Rex Harrison films were King Richard and The Crusaders, The Ghost and Mrs Muir and Cleopatra with Elizabeth Taylor. I DO think that he murdered Carole Landis and that someday the truth will be known.
I always cry at the end.
Never found him sexy at all
The Ghost and Mrs Muir. My favorite movie ever! He was unbelievably sexy!
Dr Doolittle and Ghost and Mrs Muir
16:20 carey was my professor in grad school. One class was shakespeare sonnets and I forgot the other one.
Doctor fetch a baby 🍼😂
There is just something so horrible about keeping a woman's health diagnosis a "secret" from her. Just so wrong.
Midnight lace.
