Parkinson interviews Jimmy Stewart - Part1

[@nexttimewelove51]

The greatest interview with the greatest actor Jimmy Stewart. It has been a pleasure to see this rare interview.

[@jasonburns4071]

One of the greatest actors of all time. And a decent kind man from what I read and hear. He exudes charm.

[@seancampbell9740]

Only honest one in Hollywood

[@LeoOwnsWwe]

Absolute gentleman. One of the greatest actors ever

[@cheeriosinabowl]

Jimmy is classic. Timeless. People will still watch and talk abour him 25 or 40 years from now. Quality is forever.

[@BLUEBELL258]

Love James Stewart and "It's a Wonderful Life" is a favourite film. Even love him singing as he said, you can't hurt that tune.

[@midianholic]

One of the greatest. It is such a pleasure to see Jimmy Stewart interviewed.

[@gillwilkinsongw]

Such a wonderful, wonderful kind, modest, funny, gentle man, I could listen to him all day, and watch his films all night.

[@lindajackson7113]

A Gentleman passed our way.

[@TheMrgaztop]

What a legend, I loved this bloke when I was a kid, what a diamond geezer.

[@bennyjazzful]

I agree 100% Jimmy is definetly one of my very favouite movie stars. Wonderful actor & person.

[@bluewren2]

Now there is man with individual style character and charm.

[@BelatedCommiseration]

You gotta love James Stewart. From everything you see and hear about the man he was such a kind, gentle soul and yet he had quite a good range as an actor and could provide real depth of character in his performances (such as in Rear Window and Vertigo). I think there was very little pretension about the man. The closest thing I think we have to Jimmy these days is probably Tom Hanks, who also seems like a really decent, down to earth guy who also happens to have a great range as an actor.

[@robbo3166]

Very true. When you consider that at he Olympic Games of 1936, held in Berlin; Jesse Owens stated that while Hitler had, in his way, congratulated him (by waving and applauding), President Roosevelt (FDR) actually snubbed him because he was black. And then move forward to 1943, when the Pentagon was completed, it has twice as many toilets as are required, because one set is for blacks, one for whites. Roosevelt actually condemned that. It just shows how attitudes change.

[@Bombeni]

If James Stewart was a racist then racism must be a pretty good thing.

[@carolineofscots]

love him - thanks for posting!!

[@Mortthemoose]

I could listen to Jimmie Stewart's voice all day

[@Lindsay1581]

Thank you so much for uploading this!

[@FallingRain123]

I never understood why he hated his version of "Easy to Love" so much; his voice was thin and wobbly, but it was still such a lovely, earnest rendition and my favorite of that great Porter classic.

[@HeatherGlen33]

No. I am 82, and I will never see an actor like Stewart. And there are others. Grant, Power, Peck etc. They had to have talent. Today a woman can just take off her clothes, and have a roll in the hay, and presto ! She is a star ! How pathetic.

[@fpu89]

Parkinson is so gracious and lovely.

[@davidoconnell4100]

An absolute class act.

[@henman09]

Brigadier General James Stewart. LIKE A BOSS.

[@BrionyMae]

why are there no men like jimmy stewart anymore :(

[@LavenderGirl89]

What I would have given to spend time and even gotten a kiss from Jimmy!!! Such a decent man that we all can relate to. The only person who can tell jokes and keep a straight face and be able to get so much laughter. Thats a gift. RIP JIMMY & GLORIA

[@51Saffron]

Check out him reading a poem about his dog Beau he wrote on the Johnny Carson show. Says it all about his character.

[@MrMightymitch1]

he was a captain in the 8th aiforce in ww11 and flew B17 bombers

[@SouthernGirl72364]

I love Jimmy! Thanks, Jimmy, for everything!!!!!! You were GREAT!!!!!!!!

[@bluegtturbo]

He said he couldn't sing - sounded fine to me - am I tone deaf?;-)

[@roxy5588]

I love you Jimmy! And you are too funny!! :)

[@marlon1171]

Wow this man was just surreal! what a legend, what a star, i grew up with his movies, enough greatness about jimmy can’t be expressed in words! Rip.

[@stephenboing]

They don't make actors like this any more, classic.

[@Venom70787]

Yeah America ,India ,Pakistani actors just disappear like British and zitian submarines.

[@ChaimkeProductions]

i love james stewart

[@137cake]

What a classic interview this is!

[@brentlittle8075]

Layed back and IN CHARGE,quite a combo.Killer combo.

[@brianconway100]

I'm guessing that the laughter during the film of him singing, was down to James jokingly making gestures with the audience

[@Riana2134]

I love his voice.

[@junee5666]

Great actor my favourite film is "It's A Wpnderful Life"

[@Kili121416]

Brave man. Served his Country.

[@britturk123]

I thought his singing voice was sweet and in tune worthy to be in the film, he definitely could sing well

[@lynnturman8157]

Jimmy Stewart was a great raconteur....

[@Ruby20111000]

NOW THATS A FINE MAN

[@joycegibbs5267]

he is my favourite American old school film star. Beautiful man, and fantastic actor. Don't make these diamonds anyone.

[@Paul1963music]

[@daviddoran3164]

Jimmy best man ever!

[@allexcited69]

[@bookwoman53]

I’m guess that I should some of his work. Any suggestions? I’ve only seen It’s A Wonderful Life.

[@wallyboy6666]

bookwoman53 Harvey. Vertigo. The Thin Man. Shenandoah. The Man Who Shot - Liberty Valance. Little Shop Around The - Corner. That's a good start ♡ Enjoy!

[@djtyser-czvt]

I'm sorry, I don't know the date. I digitised this from an old VHS or Beta video. Would have to look at the other stuff on the video to judge. I've got lots of old programmes to upload

[@mickeyh1961]

countzorg 1973 just saw a rerun of it on TV yesterday.

[@Cruithneach]

mickeyh1961 Indeed. 17 March 1973 to be precise :))

[@mickeyh1961]

Cruitheach Saint Patricks day

[@Cruithneach]

mickeyh1961 'Tis true, 'tis true :))

[@TheMrgaztop]

Sorry, me again, you know what made him special, he was believable.

[@salvadormarley]

Legend

[@sandyfarrow7752]

Isnt he beautiful.

[@wallyboy6666]

Sandy Farrow Yes, absolutely!

[@robertfreedman6651]

1971 interview with Michael Parkinson.

[@willd6215]

Anyone know what year this is?

[@Speegs23]

19 something

[@willd6215]

Speegs23 that's old

[@Speegs23]

Totes

[@willd6215]

armadilopeter how'd you find that out?

[@Speegs23]

He had a one in 100 chance.

[@mikeardington8530]

Besides John Wayne he is the only other cowboy I can watch and enjoy then Gary copper they were made for westerns

[@debbabbit9283]

I just watched him perform in that movie a week ago and he was outstanding in it. So was she. Now I wonder if she was a very tall lady, or if they had to make adjustments for their differences.

[@danielgallen95]

Actually, "your" is correct here. He said "Your utterly pathetic, random 'racist' slur" referring to JuanMacready's "slur" being "utterly pathetic". He was not saying that Juan was pathetic, rather that something of his was.

[@djblees2675]

the story about the horse Pie , is realy moving hé loved the Horse so much that hé try'd to buy Pie from stevie Myers but she didnt sold him , the day after the painting of Pie was ready hé died , mr. stewart gave Pie a grave on his property ( ranch) , in the book hollywood horses is where i read this .

[@sejsey]

the man was a genius

[@wormswithteeth]

Was that laughter when he sang?

[@floppykid]

Don't cry, it was only a minor mistake. Everyone can work to make themselves better.

[@Zatki]

Ok...Feel like backing that up with any evidence?

[@DroptheDime44]

@llandudnoboy definitely, agreed 100%

[@cutie4u61288]

I don't get what hes talking about did people try to disguise you and heres a 1930's film where you were more recognizable? What does that mean

[@Eruaphadriel]

Excuse me ma'am, but did you mean "dissipation?"

[@michaelcondry1493]

Wish I could meet him

[@lynnturman8157]

Early to mid 70s probably...

[@Venom70787]

The halocast was fake.

[@floppykid]

you're*

[@vanishing_girl]

lol he isn't that bad a singer
