Lizabeth Scott 1996 Interview Part 5 of 8

[@arundelmercure553]

Love her- it was an interesting conversational roll when Lizabeth was marveling about the World Wide Web- this was 1996- "Someone put me on a homepage, is that a compliment?" and a male techie and others and Scott are having a back-and-forth. I wish that had plated out further instead of being stopped cold by a Howard Hughes question, which really could have waited. Lizabeth seemed authentically interested about the Web.

[@margolane8529]

Her thoughts on film noir are dead on. Glad to hear she had a positive time in Hollywood her confidence definitely shown through in the roles she played!

[@jubalcalif9100]

Indeed !

[@harpervalleypeeteeay9708]

Her voice....so deep, just like the woman herself. She was so unique.

[@jubalcalif9100]

That is so very true !

[@hmaltravers]

Great interview with such a classy lady. Thanks for sharing it with those of us who love Lizabeth S. Do you know that I Walk Alone is NOT available on DVD? What a shame.

[@mickeyh1961]

loved Elizabeth in Desert Fury and I walk alone on both occasions she worked opposite Burt Lancaster, the chemistry and energy between them was powerful and compulsive viewing. nothing or nobody like them now.

[@soapbxprod]

Thanks for tuning in and writing a kind comment- Desert Fury is a Top 10er, huh? And Mary Astor and Wendell Corey are great in it too! That old technicolor magic...

[@jubalcalif9100]

Could not agree more! I especially love the gorgeous Technicolor in "Desert Fury"!

[@JSB1882]

God! I love this woman!

[@jubalcalif9100]

Me too ! You clearly have xlnt taste !

[@billjoe39]

A living legend..great to hear she's still kicking

[@jubalcalif9100]

Love this long interview ! Sadly she finally passed away in 2015 at the age of 92. What a long life & awesome career !

[@soapbxprod]

Actually... she was usually the "good girl"... like in Dark City and The Strange Love of Martha Ivers... the poor gil with a heart of gold. :) it was Babs Stanwyck who was the REAL "Ball of Fire"... :) Thanks for watching, we do appreciate it.

[@blackpinups]

She's so cute talking about the internet.

[@soapbxprod]

LOL! Oh the days of dialup 56K modems... what an ordeal that was! An hour to send a JPEG photo! Lizabeth was great- after the interview, Janet made all of us lunch, and we had a few glasses of wine- then the stories "not suitable for public comsumption" started! :)

[@jubalcalif9100]

There's a point in this wonderful interview where Ms Scott had forgotten the name of the picture she made with Robert Mitchum. Even I forgot it...ha ha! I looked it up just now and it was an RKO movie from 1951 called "The Racket" (which was a remake of one of the first movies produced by Howard Hughes, who by the early 50s was the owner of the RKO studio). Also in that remake of "The Racket" was Robert Ryan. That's a trio of terrific talent, indeed!

[@MovieJon]

She's right (and very perceptive) regarding the advent of psychology and its effect on movies. When Hitch made "Spellbound" (1945), there was a lot of concern with people getting involved with and understanding its mental-institution-set plot line. David Selznick had pushed for the unusual story line to be made into a movie after his own trips to an analyst. It was a HUGE hit.

[@billjoe39]

and her villianness role in Too Late For Tears

[@billjoe39]

I saw it years ago ...it was with 2 or 3 non-remastered noirs on a DVD as part of a set. I'm not sure if that film was part of the major studios so maybe the copyright bunch might let it alone...they seem to be tightening the net on everybody now ! Pitfall was great too...it be nice if all her films were touched up and released in a set like Davis's films were.

[@johnhardman3]

"They dropped the "E" to conserve newsprint" (L.S. in a 1970s interview).

[@PhoenixNewMedia]

B Films? What kind of a question is that? Scott's noir films are not "B" films.

[@teeniebeenie8774]

what was her religion that she alluded to in the previous episode? she such a positive lady...

[@soapbxprod]

She was a big fan of Ayn Rand so I'm guessing that she was an atheist and anarchocapitalist. :)

[@acastrohowell]

What year is this?

[@andrewdock7288]

A beautiful Roman Catholic girl and A Republican.

[@d.dorough]

Yes! And still was a Republican to the end :)

[@Rouben19]

I have studied , all these thirties, fortys stars and she was a star, there is a lesbian scandel that hit her in the fifties, it seems to be a tough one to get any imfo on

[@janetduhon2535]

Boring!,,!
