Lana Turner, Joan Rivers--1982 TV Interview

Lana Turner chats with Joan Rivers in this rare interview from 1982.

[@CaptainSpalding72]

Joan was an underrated interviewer, she could get people to talk.

[@shawnwest6341]

I just can't believe that there was a time when the legend Lana Turner was on a tv show after the golden age, in our world, it seems absolutely surreal!

[@rain3743]

Elizabeth Taylor did General Hospital! Donna Reed did Dallas! Lana was on Falcon Crest. Magical!

[@GLC2013]

I remember when she appeared on "Falcon Crest." It was a very big deal at the time - she hadn't made a movie since about 1965 or 1966. I watched, everyone watched. Then her character was written out rather suddenly and the gossip mags were plastered with stories about how the producers felt she was too demanding. Jane Wyman was interviewed and said "she thinks it's still 1944 in Hollywood" and criticized her for expecting limo service, roses in dressing room, etc. I don't think Lana did much more TV after that. I remember it all like yesterday but it was so long ago! Our whole world just went away...

[@GLC2013]

@John Edwards - That's interesting, I think you're probably right. I don't remember Ava being on the show but during those years there was always buzz about somebody being considered. Maybe she was one of those or I just don't remember...

[@anthonysosio]

Lana was drop dead gorgeous!!!

[@marthawoodworth6907]

I saw her when I was seven years old and never forgot the moment. I was visiting my grandparents in L.A. My uncle owned the Ambassador Hotel and we went to every black tie opening to hear the latest singing sensation. I forget who it was that night. It wasn't someone who became very famous. I wore a poofy satin blue dress with a big bow in back and felt like a movie star myself. My grandparents let me wander around the huge room where the event took place. It was studded with round tables where famous people dined while watching the show. I got lost in a corridor of the hotel and came upon a press room, with a big sign saying "LANA TURNER" (she was being interviewed). The door was ajar a tiny bit and I peeked in and saw her, swathed neck to knee in a silver lame clinging sheath dress. Literally, she looked like a star: lit up and twinkling. I had never seen anyone so beautiful. Even as a little girl I understood that this was "glamour."

I really thought Lana would name Ava Gardner as the most beautiful actress from the studio era but Hedy is just gorgeous.

Hedy was a very limited actress with a bad personality but was absolutely flawless facially. The head make-up man at MGM said Hedy looked better without make-up but he said you had to do it for the cameras. In any event Hedy is considered by many people to be the most beautiful woman who ever was in Hollywood and really stood out compared to the other glamour girls of the era.

[@ValleyoftheRogue]

@@wildbill47304 The problem was, she wasn't all that without makeup or little of it. She was not a natural beauty. Look at her in Ecstasy and you will realize she was nothing to write home about. The makeup wizards in Hollywood turned her into a goddess.

[@wildbill47304]

@@ValleyoftheRogue Odd that you should say that when as the look she was famous for was already there before she arrived in America the centered parted hair.

Mayer took a real chance when he signed her in 1937; she didn't speak English.

[@danielebrparish4271]

After watching a couple of her book promoting interviews I can see how scripted the questions and answers were. Joan did go off script when they brought up Heddy Lamar which was refreshing to hear. In general stars of that era were very protective of their image and Lana was no exception. She keeps up that wall between her public and private self. It is probably for the best. I wouldn't want a few million people that I've never met examining every detail of my life. I like that she doesn't trash the dignity of her ex-lovers. She's wrong about the studio system though. It turned Marylin Monroe and Judy Garland into drug addicts and covered up a lot of people's crimes. Women, unlike men, were booted out of the studio when they hit their 30s. Hepburn was smart enough to buy the rights to a hit Broadway play. That allowed her to pick the studio, director, role she wanted to play and her co-star. I think she was one of the few who could turn the tables on the studio system. Joan Crawford was dumped when she hit 40 and was told her best days as an actress were long gone. She signed on for a film with another studio the next year and it was a huge success that earned her an Oscar. When the studio was ready to dump an actress they put them in poorly written films with low budgets to ruin their careers so that other studios wouldn't hire them after their contract ran out. I think women benefitted the most from the collapse of the studio system. Child stars had it even worse. Many movie stars came from horrible circumstances. Mickey Rooney's childhood was horrible, Lana Turner missed a lot of meals after her dad was murdered, Marylin Monroe's mom was a bride at 15 and had to be institutionalized when Marylin was a teen. She never knew her father. Very few of these people grew up in a nuclear family. Very few knew anything about money. Shirley Temple's parents were scammed out of her wages because neither one of them had a high school education. The ones who started in Vaudeville never knew what it was like to live in a stable home. Child support, public housing and food stamps didn't exist and many of them were the family's sole bread winner before they were teens. Chaplin's dad abandoned him when he was 2. He was put in a workhouse from the age of 7. His mother died of syphilis when he was 9. He was then put in the custody of his father that he barely knew. Two years later his father died of cirrhosis of the liver at 38. Taken as a group their lives were a horror show. Turner's bosom was her life saver. I find that when people don't talk about their childhood it's because there is nothing pleasant to talk about. Barbara Stanwyck's mom died when she was 4 and 2 weeks later her dad left to work on the Panama Canal and never returned. Her and an older brother were raised by an elder sister who died at age 45. Afterwards Barbara and her brother were shuttled to a number of foster homes. She quit school at age 14 to become a filing clerk. They may have looked glamorous on the screen but their lives usually were not.

Absolutely true. This is why they were all overworked drugged sexually abused and/or casting couched or gigolos. They had nothing else really. It happened even when they had a great deal to offer. The exploitation is part of this grimy world. Their coordination, distinctive voices and dancing singing or acting became immediately noticed by talent hawk eyed scouts who often were the first to start selling them. They all had classes on how to act like posh people or cowboys or mysterious sex symbols. Much of it all was an act versus what their more natural delivery was. Yet what does it matter? A lot yet no one cared. Welcome to USA Hollyweird.

This was delightful. Joan did a great interview, and I much preferred it to Donahue’s interview (although I always liked Phil). A woman to woman conversation, with questions about her career and some dishing :-) There was mutual respect. Lana was graceful, bright, and elegant, with a sense of humor. Just saw her in a movie with Donna Reed last evening - she was wonderful! Green Dolphin Street.

Joan looks beautiful.

Her movies were great. They don't seem to have actresses like her now a days. Most movies now do' no have a good story just special affects mostly.
