JOAN AND MICKEY ROONEY

Joan Rivers interviews the great Mickey Rooney

[@AD-qq6rz]

Mick Rooney ! 😀😚 He was a great friend to Judy Garland. He PROTECTED Judy and gave her emotional support.. He loved her so much.Judy was blessed to have Micky as a Good Friend!

[@larrydewein401]

Mickey once said that he should have married Judy if only to save her from the sorrow and suffering she endured. But their love was like a brother and sister!

@@larrydewein401 Omg… this is so lovely but so sad :(((

[@AD-qq6rz]

Back in 1960s he was the best actor. He was phenomenal and a funny boy and man. He has always spoken honestly and courageously.. Now and always will be a legend..

One of the picture industries #1 individuals. He was a walking history magnet!! RIP Mickey!

[@stephemmurphy2554]

Love, love, love him.

I met mickey along with hundreds of other people at his book signing in Skokie il. He spoke the same way for over 2hours and was thoroughly entertaining.

[@photomanwilliams4147]

WOW, WOW, WOW, I'm an old guy, so I had the honor to see the world of Hollywood class in so many of the stars of the past. Mickey just gave a taste of that style on this show. I'm going to guess this show is 30 years ago and the style and class were dead or dying then. Now, even respect for the whole industry has been lost.

[@jackwalker8424]

30 years ago Movies were anything but crap, 90s had great movies, so did the 2000s but the 2010s just killed the movie industry all together. Hopefully some real talented people will get back into the film industry and fix it.

@@larrydewein401 You have your opinion, I have mine but movies Like Titanic, Braveheart, Schindler's List, The Shining, The Lion King all came out in the period I commented.

UN GRANDE MICKEY !! ADORABLE !!

[@rod7139]

Notice how in the end Jan had to be a part of the interview. Joan was onto it and dismissed her for the manipulator she was in Mickeys life.

[@lenwelch2195]

It was the fall of 68 when he called judy

[@WimGrundy]

Master of his craft, Mickey was truly a star's star!

[@retire14pattaya9]

Judy was in nyc in june 1969 before going to london. I used the same limo and driver as judy in the early 70's. The driver's name was henry and named his limo the silver streak. Henry told me they used him all the time. He was mentioned in mel tormes book "The other side of the rainbow".

[@Yasyyyyy]

Ela era tão doce, gracioso, engraçado, fofo e honesto… amo o Mickey Rooney por isso! Adoraria ter visto algum filme dele na época, ele era muito talentoso, e mereceu todo o reconhecimento que carrega até hoje! ❤️❤️✨

Two legends

[@gerrynightingale9045]

*No, Mickey...you're fighting against a process of evolving & massive changes in entertainment as whole, and you're forgetting what comes after 'Show' which is 'Business', which in turn means '$$$$$$$$' which was always the primary motivation for everything*

[@louisedwards4023]

Mickey was all ways strange but COOL

[@terracelady]

So sad what his wife and stepsons did to him, the physical and mental abuse in his later years

[@Davidalp1]

He got all his facts wrong... Judy wasn't in Boston 3 weeks before she died?? Huh?? I think he was thinking of the time he spoke with Judy on the phone (as per John Meyers book) in the Autumn of 1968 when he wanted to open up a chain of "Judy & Mickey Dance Schools" -- and he wanted her to participate; but she didn't want to go ahead with the idea. But whatever the case, Judy wasn't in Boston 3 weeks before her death. She did fly out to New York however. But I don't know if he spoke with her on the phone then?

[@cmcb09]

If you wanted fact, you interviewed someone like Steve Allen. If you just wanted an entertaining interview, you interviewed Mickey.

[@terrygrant3467]

Mickey is totally clueless. He's either making this stuff up or he had amnesia. Liza was not a little girl when she did her mom's show. But, I must confess I really don't like Liza much. I think she is just bloody awlful. But, Mickey really was an arrogant, egotistical, self centered ham.

[@abriellehorvath3195]

Davidalp1 Judy was in Boston in fall of 1968. Within the next few months, Mickey tried to get her to open the acting school. Too bad she didn’t want to do it. She refused to go back to LA. She stayed in New York, had a brief affair with John Meyer and then met her last husband, Mickey Deans. She stayed in London until she died there.😪

[@susanb2015]

[@terrysmith8749]

Mickey's has no idea what hes saying. When Judy did her show, Liza was 17, not a little girl. Mickey loves to hear himself talk. He just rambles. I believe he loves Judy very much, but, where was he when she needed somebody. Mickey was a big star, but, Judy was the BIGGEST. Judy will live on forever.

Pictures ended up being made in Bollywood and Canada by and large. Animation went the same way overseas and Canada.
