[@patdoyle3686]

Lovely actress and a beautiful person always very good on screen super interview🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟

[@helanesolomon1724]

Audrey Dalton is wonderful. When I met her in person she couldn’t have been kinder. It’s fascinating to hear stories about the actors she worked with. Thanks.

[@hiramnoone]

This longer format is most enjoyable, especially with someone with as many interesting remembrances as Audrey whose career spanned so much of film and television's golden age of westerns. A most elegant and articulate lady.

[@jimarcher159]

What a grand lady. Still as beautiful as ever!

[@1ndone132]

I just love these interviews. She is such a lady.

[@magovenor]

They say beauty is timeless and besides my Dear,, sweet, Mother, she is one such example.

[@SSKing-iy8kr]

Nailed it again, Rob. She was absolutely charming and delightful. Loved every story she shared.

[@jeremytaylor4839]

I can tell you that she was an amazing woman. I didn’t know that she was such a great actress with such an amazing family history. I knew she had been in Hollywood but she never made a big deal if it. She and grandpa Rod were so humble and always so nice to me…glad to learn more about her

[@djdiscoworm]

She's a Delight and a National Treasure

[@philmfan]

What a lovely, lively woman with such an engaging presence. Her Irish accent almost came out a little at the end.

[@joelcopeland3018]

Wow, this was great... Bronson is still one of my favorites...

[@pjoe1950]

What a great character Captain Jack was. Bronson has always been a favorite especially in this movie and Magnificent Seven. Alan Ladd was also one of my favorites and will always be Shane to me. It was very nice seeing Audrey and thankfully women last longer than men so that Rob still has somebody to interview. Great show again Rob.

[@efhs1970]

Rob, what an awesome lady, Audrey Dalton exudes class and exemplifies what was great about the classic stars of yesterday! I look forward to seeing her again! Thanks for sharing and as always thanks for all your hard work!💫

[@seymourwrasse3321]

I had a guidance counselor in school that told me, to help my reading, read anything, even a comic book , just read. the comic books help

[@georgejetson3702]

I love learning more about performers like Audrey though your interviews. She seems like a very down to earth nice person.

[@joansmith5870]

Wonderful interview. Audrey was interesting and provided great detail on the many stars from long ago. I feel nostalgic for the many talented men and women in film and tv during that remarkable period.

[@jomon723]

All great movies, Most I saw on the Late Show at night in the late 60's and 70's as a kid 💖

[@khaz606]

Thanks for another interview with Ms Dalton. Considering the amount of TV work she did in the "Golden Age" of TV you would think The Television Academy would do an Interview with her. Bless both of you. I hope there's more :)

[@theflyingninja1]

My dad would have absolutely LOVED this channel. His knowledge of Westerns was encyclopeadic.

[@tonyhemingway7980]

It is so refreshing to watch an interview with someone who has such a sharp mind and such a love for her craft and fellow actors. Once again, thank you for being the kind of interviewer who will allow your guests to speak without interrupting them.

[@AWordonWesterns]

Thanks, Tony.

[@scottbatey3130]

Rob you are the greatest, you bring the best out of people! And Audrey Dalton has still got IT!!! She is marvelous!

[@ChuckJansenII]

Fascinating interview. Charles Bronson was a great actor. I still have a 16mm print of You're In The Navy Now (1951) starring Gary Cooper with an uncredited Charles Buchinsky. It's about the U.S.S. Teakettle a sub chaser with an experimental engine. This was Bronson's first feature film role.

[@AWordonWesterns]

I saw it years ago, Charles. Time for me to revisit it. When’s the screening party?

Excellent, Rob.

[@MrVideovibes]

Audrey enlivened so many films and TV episodes with her beauty and presence, and in such a broad range of genres. I'm so glad you had a follow-up interview with her as the first was both enjoyable and engrossing. You continue to outdo yourself with these splendid interviews Rob. Much appreciated!

She's a delightful woman. Talking about Robert Loggia reminded me of my childhood. I loved the show, "The C.A.T." - He was so good in that show and it only lasted one season.

Thank you for all of these great interviews. Having grown up primarily overseas and not much tv, I never saw a lot of these western shows until this past year. What fun it is to see so many stars make appearances on Wagon Train, Cheyenne, Big Valley, The Virginian and so many more.

[@johnblair2939]

a great interview.

[@AWordonWesterns]

Thanks, John.

[@grahamhill6340]

Very charming interview with AUDREY DALTON... Rob, I produced a documentary on DELMER DAVES and tried to get the city of Sedona and their arts council to pay tribute to him with a film festival... after all, Delmer really introduced the majestic Red Rocks and beautiful scenery to the world in the same way that John Ford did with Monument Valley. Unfortunately, the city council couldn't care a less about Delmer or any HOLLYWOOD movies that brought in all the tourist dollars that they profit from. But as Rob said, Delmer Dave was a fascinating writer/director/producer who never got the credit and attention he so richly deserved. As Audrey commented Sedona looks totally different today from when she first knew it... if any place needed to become a national park to spare it from being way over-developed its Sedona!

[@AWordonWesterns]

What a shame the city didn’t support your tribute to Delmer. Obviously it was the perfect location.

[@garydavidson1970]

Another fun and entertaining interview. Audrey is such a charming and interesting guest. Thanks, Rob.

[@hamsterman2008]

Another Great episode !

[@buddylobos5277]

Great interview. The Robert Wagner Wagon Train was just on last week. I was sort of surprised to see how Ward Bond was much taller than him. Thank You Audrey and Thank You Rob.

[@anthonya1151]

I remember your video of Charles Dierkop!

[@ericteneyck8691]

Enjoyed this very much. Audrey Dalton's memory was very sharp and when she shared a story of someone you could tell it was an actual memory of hers. Lots of times someone will be telling a story and you just get the feeling that they were repeating something that they had heard or perceived over the years, I didn't get that feeling with this interview. Thanks for another great interview Rob!

[@AWordonWesterns]

Thanks, Eric. She was a treat for me too.

[@richb313]

Thanks for the interview with Audrey Dalton discussing her career and the intersection with Charles Bronson another underappreciated actor and writer that I had no knowledge of. All these great stars and actors can be remembered thanks to your efforts.

[@AWordonWesterns]

Thanks, MsB. Audrey worked a lot.

[@cabotcovecode3927]

I watched Titantic yesterday just because of her. And my growing appreciation of Barbara Stanwyck. Miss Dalton cheated us by not being on television and in the movies every year.

[@suev3339]

What a delightful interview this was w/Audrey Dalton. So many greats she worked w/and knew. Alan Ladd in so many leading role actor, but my favorite The Proud Rebel w/his son David first together as acting, first role for David. Charles Bronson, Barbara Stanwyck… oh so many. Loved the comic books story. I first had introduction to the comic books in early ‘60’s when I “soda jerk” for my Aunt’s shop, she had a stack of fronts taken off that were “library loans”, what a delightful summer it was working, and my free time. Yes, it was a reading enrichment. Audrey was a wonderful character actor in so many roles. Always enjoyed wherever she showed up. Thanks so much Rob, you’re a master of interviewing!! 🤠

[@rogertemple7193]

There were a lot of actors who started acting under their real names and later changed them one was Max Showalter who worked in films and TV shows in the 50's and 60's as Casey Adams and in the 70's reverted back to his real name and acted in many films and television shows now as Max Showalter and there were others that did for their names to sound better.

[@joeburns4294]

Great interview Rob. Always conjures up great memories of these series of my youth. I remembered Ward Bond doing a Wagon Train commercial for kids to enter a contest to win a Palomino horse! ‘Be the envy of every boy in your neighborhood’, was part of the promo. Then all the interest that was generated on who would replace Ward Bond when he passed away. Then we see John McIntire take over, who I remembered as the no nonsense police commissioner in The Adphalt Jungle with that memorable switch board scene briefing reporters on who would answer those calls when a threatened citizen calls for help.

[@wesmcgee1648]

Audrey was a stunningly beautiful woman in those films. Saw her the other day in a b/w Gunsmoke with Burt Reynolds as Quint Asper.

Of course, as a world-renowned Titanic historian with two books to my name, a NG documentary and BBC radio presentation as "Molly Brown" I was thrilled to see this interview with Audrey Dalton. What you may not know is that a real Titanic survivor, Renee Harris, discovered Barbara Stanwyck and renamed her from Ruby Stevens. She also discovered Mort Sahl (A Star is Born). Another real Titanic survivor, Lucy, Lady Duff-Gordon, was an influential fashion designer who dressed many stars of silent films, and early talkies, and very good friends with Clifton Webb.

Ladd at that time was 40 yuears old and becoming wealthy through good investments in real estate and other things. He was one of the richest actors in Hollywood when he died.

[@hiramnoone]

Like Glenn Ford and Jimmy Stewart, Charles Bronson in his westerns both on tv and in film seemed to favor a hat that suited him particularly well. Flat on top, tight curl at the sides, you saw that hat, you knew Bronson was under it. Whereas John Wayne might favor a style for several films, for example his choice in the Ford Cavalry trilogy, then Hondo, Rio Bravo and even the non western Legend of the Lost. Then, with that hat no longer suiting him as his frame grew larger and he grew older, moving on quite logically to a bigger hat. All of them good choices and suiting him perfectly through the maturing stages of his career. Whereas Eastwood ( a guy who understood as well as anyone the hat's importance as that one piece of apparel most crucial for an actor in any western that would define his character and so was absolutely critical to get right), other than on Rawhide changed styles often, but was canny enough to never pick a bad one. That can't be said for Alan Ladd here however. A thing that's apparent in his appearance at the beginning of this episode. That hat is too small, too clean, and too1950s trilby lookin' to work for him. No idea if it was his choice or someone else's, but it just ain't workin' which meant he had to do some really powerful acting to overcome that look his headgear gave him, when a better choice in hats coulda said more about his character than reams and reams of dialog.
