Kim Novak on Hollywood in the 50s and the star system (PARKINSON, BBC 1981)

[@Eurafrican]

Kim is truly one of the most beautiful people I've ever seen. Plus intelligent and articulate.

[@josemas6363]

I love Kim since I was 16 in my country Cuba . Am now 79.

[@Cassiopea456]

So classy and humble! A time that is gone when you truly had a role model to look up to..

[@toddbates3587]

i have been in love with kim novak ever since i was 8 years old!!!!!!!

[@MariaChristinaBari]

You have excellent taste.

[@rockoplane]

Don’t give up!

[@pvelvet1483]

I love her voice

[@pffortes]

Her voice is deep and sexy. Reminds me of Kathleen Turner’s when she was just starting out. Accent and breathy quality are so similar.

[@jeffmateras2203]

Still beautiful Kim, sorry they treated y'all like they did , God Bless You

[@diannerussell4849]

Love Kim she's confident, beautiful and honest.⭐⭐⭐

[@patriciaotte5298]

What a beautiful actress. Loved her in "Strangers when we meet".

"Kim" Novak was born in Chicago, Illinois on February 13, 1933. Both her parents were of Czech descent. She is an American retired film and television actress and is celebrating her 88th birthday today, February 13, 2021. Novak began her film career in 1954 after signing with Columbia Pictures, starring in many movies, including (1955), (1955) and (1957). She is widely known for her performance as Madeleine Elster/Judy Barton in Alfred Hitchcock's thriller (1958) with James Stewart.

[@floorbrown]

I love her honesty

[@007beck9]

This interview must have been after when she filmed The Mirror Crack'd (1980) with Elizabeth Taylor, Rock Hudson and Angela Lansbury as Miss Marple

[@VILJL]

She was 48 years old at the time of this interview. Today, February 13, 2021, she is 88. UPDATE: She turned 90 years old on February 13, 2023

[@lnl3237]

She made it to 90 and pretty sure she's attending the TCM cruise in November. Just rewatched her interview with the one and only Robert Osborne. So delightful and insightful.

[@sallyramseur5797]

My mom watched all of your movies Kim and I was always with her as far as I could remember. My favorite was the with Gary Stewart and Bell Book and Candle. Not sure if you are still around/ /but to me you are/were/ a great actress.

[@501rivet]

Kim is much more earthy, and grounded than I ever expected. A chunk of her career was sex pot roles, and Playboy centerfolds. She has a unique presence on film. Her personality in conversation is just as unique.

[@Scorchy666]

Sounds like you're confusing her with Jayne Mansfield. Kim appeared briefly in Playboy in a tasteful layout. As far as sexpot roles go, I suppose she appeared in some sexpot roles, but as someone intelligent.

[@501rivet]

@@Scorchy666 Hey, your input is appreciated. I know the two actresses growing up w/their careers through the years. Kim's role in "the Notorious Land lady", Boys Nite Out, Kiss Me Stupid, and Legend of Lila Claire exploited her physical feminine presence, probably type casting her from previous roles. Her emotional range is a bit shallow, meaning shes not a whiner, or a girly girl. "Vertico" displays her unique specific acting range well and will be her legacy. Lucky Kim.

[@sunlodge6]

A mesmerizing woman indeed, exotically beautiful.

[@Kermit_T_Frog]

Born 1933. Hard to believe that she was almost 50 when she gave this interview. Somewhere between 10 and 15 years since she had retired.

[@sheilabrewster3620]

So beautiful and NATURAL.❤ Theres no one like Kim Novak

[@MARlA___]

Love Kim since I see Vertigo, sublime human, Hitchcock a true love, the most spetacular.

[@sheilamacdougal4874]

The last seconds are an iconic intro to a famous jazz recording. I'll give you all a hint: AB by MD.

[@ianedwards4400]

England must have been freezing, going by the luscious Kim Novak's attire! Wow! what a beaut! Never disappointed me through out her career.

[@waltraudweber889]

Fantastic actriz.

[@giorgiaciuti938]

Rain tea and vertigo = bliss

[@peace-now]

She had that little extra. Another actress who is like her is Lee Remick.

[@GordonShumway17]

She's incredibly beautiful

[@LionTheHeart]

One beautiful lady throughout her career... even making an appearance on Star Trek, that Kirk gets all the best women!

[@SlartiMarvinbartfast]

Kim Novak wasn't in Star Trek, you're thinking of Nancy Kovak (no relation).

[@beatricewoods3113]

If she stayed in Hollywood she'd been to rehab,married three four times,botox look like alien, and Broke men took her money.she did right thing

[@christophepena2212]

Botox look like alien...is exactly what she looks like...too much liftings!!

[@sarahgodwin-xd1wr]

[@Mloofylicious]

that awful sweater screams 80s fashion.

[@ericklynch6873]

Acting style one word wooden

[@probyful]

She wasn´t wooden. She was a very good actress.

[@jasonhurd4379]

You obviously haven't watched Vertigo; or if you have, you weren't paying attention.

[@TrumptonMayor]

​@@jasonhurd4379Spot on Jason she is superb in that, loved her in Bell, Book and Candle too.

[@jerzgirl2662]

Is she really a he?

[@anl1456]

f u

[@patriciaotte5298]

She was definitely a wonderful beautiful woman.

[@Grimenoughtomaketherobotcry]

If you're having trouble telling the difference, I suggest you look between your own legs.
