Robert Mitchum❤ was a true friend to Marilyn Monroe❤.

The worst we Men are the more Women want to know Us

That was quite possibly the best insight into her i have ever heard. Clearly, Robert thought she was wonderful, as we all did. He knew her well enough to not only see her as she really was as well as the public persona she gave to the world, but also as Marilyn saw herself. Marilyn in 3 person. Spoken about with much heart and kindness. ❤

Robert Mitchum's insightful reflections on his late colleague Marilyn Monroe are very touching. He was brimful of empathy, understanding and admiration for her. It takes a sensitive, talented person to know one. Instantly he saw past the 'Dumb Blonde', starlet stereotype, to the heart and soul of the human being within. A lovely man, and like Marilyn, a true star. What a stark contrast this interview is, to the mean and snarky comments Sir Lawrence Olivier made on camera about Monroe, dismissing her as 'a model, not an actress'. He never got over the fact Marilyn Monroe was recognised as a global icon after her death - a rare status he would never achieve in his lifetime or beyond it, despite his lofty reputation as an actor, (mostly in Britain, where he was knighted for his work). I suspect he was also much-miffed that the world's hottest blonde was totally immune to his charms when they made 'The Prince and the Showgirl' together! The whole experience of working with Monroe, which Olivier had such high hopes of both professionally and personally, was a crushing disappointment to him, bordering on humiliation. She possessed a powerful star quality - the camera loved her. Inevitably, she acted him off the screen and stole every scene, reducing Olivier to supporting cast in a British-made movie he had nurtured like a baby for the glittering prizes he mistakenly assumed it would bring him. Even 20 years later, his anger at Marilyn was obvious - and frankly unsettling - during a TV interview which can be found on KZbin. The way he coldly dismissed her as though she were just another forgettable blonde sex symbol, was actually pretty venomous. The polar opposite of the respectful way Robert Mitchum remembered her here. Olivier may have been named the finest actor of his generation, but he was certainly no gentleman. I don't believe he was a patch on the great Robert Mitchum - as an actor or as a human being.

Very fortunate Davo ...to have Bob on the show ...Hollywood royalty 👑 #legend

Legend

Wow, didn't know that Robert Mitchum and James (Jim) Dougherty were partners (co-workers) at Lockheed Aircraft so that's how he first met and got to know and befriend Jim's then wife Norma Jean Baker Dougherty (aka Marilyn Monroe).

The fact that Norma Jeane's husband Jim Dougherty was friend's with a classy guy like Robert Mitchum when they were factory workers says it all. Norma Jeane should have stayed with Jim, the only good husband she had who did not abuse her and treated her like a queen.

The Oscars are a joke. Louise Fletcher said that she used her Oscar as a door stopper. I think Mitchum would have done something similar had he won. He had a great career and will always be remembered for his great acting chops.

Robert Mitchum, one of my favourites the way he talks about Marilyn Munroe with her certain traits. It reminds me of the similarities with Diana Princess of Wales. Of course, they eventually played a certain game. They were vulnerable, sensitive, but perhaps they crossed the wrong people and they were both taken out, whether they connect with the Kennedys or Diana with the royal family and the English establishment?🇬🇧🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿🇬🇧

He was a Holocaust denier.

Du zero isnt a pimple on mitchums you no what!!!!! He played gangsters cowboys war movies all of them duh zero play a cowboy ya right

He looks like Robert DeNiro! 🤓

The One and ONLY - Robert Mitchum!

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️👍🏼😎🎬🎥

She wasn't I bet she had some plastic surgery, she didnt look like "Marilyn" in her early years

Robert Mitchum was married to his one and only for 46 years. Very rare for Hollywood. He met her when he was 16 and she was 14.

Not wishing to detract from Mitchum's high assessment of Lean - wasn't there another British man (in the role of director though famous for his acting) - one "Charles Laughton" - who secured a very powerful performance from Mitchum in "Night of the Hunter" - and "directorially" - gave us one of the finest movies (the said "Night of the Hunter") of the 1950s ???

A TRUE MAN❤ VERY TALENTED🎉

A younger Mitchum wouldn't have gone on this show but if he did he would have slapped Letterman back to 1947.

Facinating he knew her when she was just the wife of a co worker

Robert michum had a really nice voice didn't realize until I heard him sing leaning on the everlasting arms in night of the Hunter

The scum press feeding more us bs...dream on this could be you. She would have been happy with a less exploitive experience.

"Of course on another network" 😅

MITCH COULD DO IT ALL!!!!!

If only Dino knew Mitchum was screwing one his daughters (Deana)…or perhaps he did and didn’t care in true Dino style.

Gifted actor, love his work

Thats a real friend. ❤😊

Robert Mitchum was truly one of a kind. I had the pleasure of working with him on a film in Hollywood as an actor, near the end of his career and he was a joy to behold. Casual, genuine and always telling stories of working with Marilyn. Mitch had this wonderfully unique way of including you in his life..

💯💞🌺🕊

My favorite male movie star...and could sing too, but NOT on the credits of "River Of No Return".....that was the "Ol' Pea Picker"!!..LOL!!...

yves montand tremble face a robert mitchum .

He was impeccable in The Friends of Eddie Coyle and The Big Sleep.

only american men have a voice like that 🙂

Funny how this life time so much the same as my previous one truly fascinating thank you for this sending my love light and good thoughts always ❤️✨

Mitchum one of the few men who looked macho even in drag.

Just watched his interview with Eric Andre

These actors are great but do you know who is greater? Jesus. He is selfless and loving. He died for everyone's sins, past, present, and future. Be careful when watching these films. We mustn't make these people our idols. Exodus 20:3-5 says "You must not have any other god but me. You must not make for yourself an idol of any kind or an image of anything in the heavens on earth or in the sea. You must not bow down to them or worship them, for I, the Lord your God, am a jealous God who will not tolerate your affection for any other gods." Not only that, but the end times are here. 2 Timothy 4:1-5 states "You should know this, Timothy, that in the last days there will be very difficult times. People will love only themselves and their money. They will be boastful and proud, scoffing at God, disobedient to their parents, and ungrateful. They will consider nothing sacred. They will be unloving and unforgiving; they will slander others and have no self-control. They will be cruel and hate what is good. They will betray their friends, be reckless, be puffed up with pride, and love pleasure rather than God. They will act religious, but they will reject the power that could make them godly. Stay away from people like that!" This is merely to inform people, not to attack them. God bless.

I also thought I was going to see the entire film. What a bummer. Guess I’ll have to keep looking

My first film on this channel. I enjoyed the intro although the plot description was a bit long for me. Absolutely enjoyed the other information. Especially how you don’t like the stupid shaky camera crap.

Bring a tear to your eye.

5:15 That looks to be around 8-10 oz of Scotch. 4-5 doubles in 1 glass. From everything I've read the guy could put the booze away like water. Chain smoked Pall Mall non-filter cigs as well. Surprised he lived as long as he did. Must have had a very strong constitution.

Two classic Hollywood legends, and genuine tough guys too.

Monroe's first husband confirmed Mitchum was lying.

he cant find a place to park

Bloody hell he is stoned ..legend
