I can’t help but feel Gloria just isn’t getting the respect she deserves here. Perhaps before the time where we really appreciated these older legends than we do today. This was a time where they really saw the revolutions taking place as something enabling them to scoff at the past. Today I think Gloria would have received a roar of encouragement and respect when she stood up and showed her outfit. There was an element of “oh whatever old lady in her old fashioned outfit” instead of legend, looking amazing in her timeless classic outfit. Now she has gone and we can’t show her the respect she deserves

First of all I love what Gloria is wearing, she looks lovely. How she describes this is how they dressed in the 30's, the time she was at the top of her career. I think she is elegant and articulate. I don't care for how Dick Cavett speaks to her, at times poking fun. She was in silent films and when films just began with sound, what a wealth of interesting stories she has.

This interview has the Woodstock Legend Janis Joplin in it, and was filmed on August 3, 1970. Sadly....Janis had just two more months to live. She died on Oct 4, 1970 from a heroin overdose. At the beginning of this clip Swanson says, her dress she's wearing is from 1938, and she tells Janis she was not even born yet....still sitting on a cloud...lol. Indeed, Gloria was 44 years old when Janis was born in 1943, and Miss Swanson lived until 1983. She died at age 84. Swanson was world famous by the early 1920's....a full twenty year's before Janis was even born. Swanson lived on the world stage for 6 full decades....while Janis only began her rise to stardom a mere 3 year's before this interview. She streaked across the sky like a meteor.....rising to fame in 67, she was died by 1970! Two very famous women with two totally different journey's. Gloria may have thought to herself in this interview....this young girl has her whole life ahead of her.....they tell me she's only 27. But Gloria would still be alive for another 13 year's after this interview. Like I said....what a contrast! My only question is....what good is fame, if you never live long enough to enjoy it? Swanson did...and Joplin didn't!!! There are lessons to be learned in this. Janis reminds me of the doomed Titanic that never made it to New York. It sank on it's maiden voyage across the cold Atlantic. Janis was hit by an iceberg of her own making. For just like the Titanic, she was sailing too fast for her own good. While Gloria, on the other hand; like an old steamship, just kept on keep'in on. She really was.... a true work of art, both inside, and out!!!

Based on reading the comments below, is it possible that people are unable to appreciate the individual genius of both of these women at the same time? Swanson in her time, and Joplin in hers? Must Janis come out the loser because she is not as elegant as Swanson? Old Hollywood and Janis Joplin. Why even compare them? They are most utterly marvelous in their way. Both bohemian women who wanted their own definition, not society's. Janis had a terrible sadness to her, but she was brilliant when she was ready to perform. Gloria was a long-term businesswoman and professional, but she too made her own way and made over her life to suit her own design, wherever she could. We have room to appreciate both brilliant performers. Can you imagine comparing Cary Grant and Jimi Hendrix? It's pointless.

Would have been wonderful if Joplin had given herself the chance to mature into a producer or go into film. She probably would have been marvelous. Here's a comparison of Grant & Hendrix: both from poor backgrounds taking their compulsive performative gifts to great artistic heights and articulation where they became the image they put out there and both were chief promoters of the benefits LSD with a tie or without.

A REAL movie STAR

@zaklamp24 It's really too bad. But by this time people weren't interested in old silent movie stars. A lot of the audience probably just saw her as an old woman telling stories about things that happened long ago that nobody cared about anymore; like the whole thing about "Queen Kelly." Few of them knew, probably, that this was one the greatest actresses of all time.

I love what Swanson had to say about having seen it all when she was young. I feel the same way.....I was coming of age 40-45 years ago, and nothing is new under the sun!

The glorious Swanson! She started her career in 1919 with DeMille. By the time of this show, she had spanned the 1920's through the 1960's. Little known fact: She testified as character witness for John Lennon at his immigration hearing.

It's too funny. There is another Cavett interview with Miss Joplin aquel Welch which is just as amusing, considering that Welch was also her generation but clearly has no idea how to react to Joplin. Miss Swanson does it well, because it doesn't occur to her that she is not the focal point, which of course she is. LOL

I don't think it would have mattered if she had shared the stage with Charles Manson. There were very few of her contemporaries that Gloria Swanson could not eclipse. I am only grateful for one thing, that she did not pass on before the age of the silents was over. Her voice, her method of speaking and her vocal acting were not something I would have wanted to miss. Every inch a lady and pure Hollywood glamour the way it was meant to be. There will never be anyone like her.

Some criticize Janis in this interview, but Cavett was known for mixing diverse people on his show. Janis was notoriously shy with a massive inferiority complex. I'm sure she was "on" something during this, but the shy, insecure "pearl" had to have felt intimidated by the screen legend, Swanson, who couldn't have been nicer or more beautiful.
