Thanks. Gloria Swanson is always fascinating to watch. She's very gracious, but she also clearly wants to do the show on her own terms rather than being prodded and puppeteered. You have to respect her for that.

Interesting how this episode parallels "Sunset Boulevard" (1950). Ms. Swanson had a premonition about the show, could have chosen to keep quiet and go-along with the charade, but did a very Norma Desmond-esque thing and took control of the entire situation! ❤

I loved watching This is Your Life! We never knew who was next to have their chance to be cornered, lol. It was so exciting, and learned who was the best friend, etc. How I miss these shows. Most of all, I miss those stars. A whole different world.❤

She always carries a single flower during appearances like this.

I am reading her autobiography at this very moment. What a coincidence! She is an icon, a legendary actress and those were the days when there was more talent than celebrity. Thank you sir for sharing this exceptional treat.

[@dubbelhenke854]

Her autobiography is so interesting. And she was a fighter for the environment very early.

She was very aware of herself, and in her mind remained true to herself. She was ahead of her time as far as nutrition women’si rights, and always was kind. I really believe she enjoyed meeting the young man who played her infant boy in a film. The fact that she bought him a piney. Generous. She had so urchin life to live after this show.

Gloria Swanson bought a pony for that young actor. How nice of her...

[@gingermurray]

Gloria, so charming love her. I’m shocked Joseph Kennedy sr didn’t show up.😂Gloria and the bootlegger had a torrid affair in the 1920s. Gloria writes about it in her bio.

It would be great if the one on Jesse Lasky were uploaded. IT was on YT 14 years ago but was taken down.

Gloria Swanson was vegan before vegan became "cool". 🥬😄🥕
