TCM Tribute to Greer Garson

[@msgigirogers1559]

I don't know why this makes me want to cry, Greer was an Amazing actress and bright light on stage and screen.

[@JM-rs7io]

🤔She had THE Most Beautiful AND Enchanting voice IN HISTORY!😘

[@bennettwinters7278]

She is one of my mom's favorite actresses. I will always love Greer Garson, and her movies.

[@dustypink4802]

What a lovely tribute to her. She was so gorgeous!

[@kammorris5902]

For me, Greer's best film is, "Mrs. Parkington" In the book, "A Rose for Mrs. Miniver," Garson didn't want the role at first. Eventually, she caved and I'm so glad she did. Its one of the few films where she ages over a span of several decades...from a young woman to an elderly woman and she's fantastic in the role.

[@davidgladstone5261]

I LOVED THE VALLEY OF DECISION! AND MR. CHIPS O0F COURSE!

[@mahalialutz1874]

Greer Garson was REGAL! I truely mean that! There will never be another Greer, no one can touch her, no one can replace her, no one can copy her, no one can match her ever!!! I miss her epic spirit in this world, and I will always miss her, until I close my eyes!!!! She took my heart with her when she left, the only other two people that I loved this much were my grandmother, my Mother, and my Auntie! I consider her family! I just wish I could of met her, and touched her hand!!!!

[@BI2NO3CHE]

She was brilliant, great ❤️

[@ShiftingDrifter]

My favorite Greer Garson scene is in Random Harvest. I call it "The Black Dress Scene." My god the way she moves, speaks and smiles in that scene is larger than life. She is so ravishingly beautiful and the camera captures her so well.

[@BI2NO3CHE]

Ever so true 💕

[@billgrady9188]

I totally agree!!

[@sedekiman]

@Ben Jones Yes-and the other iconic still is of Vivien Leigh in the red dress in GWTW!

[@angeladeen6168]

In case you're out there, I will respond. Greer Garson is one of my favorite actresses. I agree with you, Random Harvest is my favorite of her movies. I also very much enjoyed her performance in Good bye Mr. Chips. And yes, she gave a lovely performance in Mrs. Miniver. There are many of her movies I haven't seen though. Thank you for the great overview.

[@jan9256]

Movies back then were so much better.

[@richardjohnson4238]

If there was one woman in history I wish I could have met, it would have been Greer Garson.

[@evaheiser4083]

Was für eine schöne Frau und tolle Schauspielerin. Danke für das schöne Video ❤❤❤❤❤

[@nadinecolbath5584]

What a wonderful actress!!!!! I loved her in Madam Curie!!! She is unforgettable.

[@sojournertruth6088]

My favorite actress. There are none like her.

[@josephalfano7566]

She is my favorite actress as well! Greer Garson was absolutely great in all of her movies.

[@mdesapio]

I love Greer Garson's elegance, dignity, and beauty. I am wondering, can anyone point to any other actresses of the 1930s-1960s that are like her, i.e., have a similar type of beauty or project similar qualities? British, American, or European makes no difference.

[@marianchacon5289]

LOVE OLD MOVIES WHICH ARE UNIQUE, CLASSIC AND INCOMPARABLE TO TODAY'S MOVIES. THE GOLDEN AGE OF HOLLYWOOD WILL NEVER RETURN. THESE WERE BEAUTIFUL MOVIES AND FANTASTIC ACTORS!! TQ.

[@CarlosGonzalez-yv1tg]

Sometimes I watch her films muted, so I can fully appreciate her faces: always so feminine, delicate, a subtle sensuality, she was exquisite!

[@2legit64]

I'm becoming a fan after recently watching "Mrs. Miniver" and "Random Harvest." However, the one that has stayed with me is one that I happened to find one evening on TCM titled "When Two Ladies Meet" with Joan Crawford. I'm not a Crawford fan, but I enjoyed that film. I think that it was because of Greer Garson. She was just so beautiful and played the role of scorned wife with such class and dignity.

[@headedsomewhere]

I especially loved her films with Walter Pidgeon ie Mrs Parkington, and That Forsthe Woman with Walter and Errol Flynn :) and let me not forget Pride and Prejudice with the great Sir Laurence Olivier #yummy

[@Themanwhocameback2]

Yes. I never gave much thought to Greer Garson. Then, I saw "When Ladies Meet". She was rivetting - hard to be when one is sharing scenes with Joan Crawford, but Greer Garson was. Beauty and strength and charm. A combo no one today has..

[@vasantinamdar8256]

Memorable Mrs Chipping and Mrs Miniver

[@sentfrom4477]

One of my all time favourites! Thank you!

[@jamestyler7697]

Greer nowadays is generally dismissed as a "grand lady" with limited range, but I would put her body of work up against that of Davis, Hepburn, or De Haviland any day. Its one thing for her to have matched Davis' five consecutive Oscar nominations, which on its own could have just been a fluke, but she was the only leading lady at MGM to even attempt the kind of versatility that made Davis a star. For instance, she was willing to use the same type of "de-glammed" makeup tactics Davis employed to age herself on screen - in both Madam Curie and Mrs. Parkington - but she's equally convincing throughout both as a Polish scientist and an American socialite respectively; not to mention as a Texan social worker in Blossoms and an Irish maid in Valley. But she had the discipline Davis lacked to perform Shakespeare - both on stage and in the movie adaptation of Julius Caesar. And I know that Austen fans aren't the biggest fans of her Elizabeth Bennett or the film adaptation as a whole - perhaps justifiably so - but I have yet to see an actress who displayed such an understanding of the material so as to deliver the dialogue with that kind of biting wit and humor; even if she was indeed too old to play the character, she somehow did not compromise the integrity of the original source. And finally her semi-comeback portrayal of Eleanor Roosevelt was spot-on and might have clinched her a second Oscar had it not been for Liz Taylor's life-threatening illness. Greer might have been the Meryl Streep of her day, come to think of it.

[@johnchipol7716]

Well said

[@sedekiman]

Davis had so many strange mannerisms, and Hepburn an unfortunate voice-like a knife on a plate. I loved Irene Dunne and Loretta Young both had lovely voices.

[@ghtsw11]

The only comparable actress was a contemporary - Irene Dunne

[@HHIto]

My neighbor worked in film, and he said "Greer Garson" was the most beautiful (natural) woman, went on a fishing trip with his wife, Ms. Garson & her husband. No makeup in the AM, he was stunned, amazed at her beauty. No comments on "others".

[@brockmeeks1695]

I wish Ms. Garson had more content here. She was so charming and such a great actress. Also, a true class act.

[@brianmcwhorter2867]

A classic beauty.

[@markrees8166]

Random Harvest, Goodbye Mr Chips, special films, special actress. Different league compared to pygmies of today

She's everything...thanks for the upload. Please more of Greer Garson.

[@aryehfinklestein9041]

Greer Garson and Robert Donat - the sort of class that no longer exists. Sad.

[@billgrady9188]

Fabulous video. I'm so glad I saw it!

[@MelodicSymphonywithBeas]

one of my favourite hollywood actresses.....I like Greer Garson very much...such a stunning beauty....🤩🥰🥰🥰

[@joequillun7790]

She was after my time, but seemed like a real beauty. Glad we have re-runs.

[@sjcohen4444]

My earliest memory of Greer Garson was when she guest starred on The Red Skeleton Show back in the 60's. The first film I saw her in was The Singing Nun at Radio City. Speaking of Radio City, my grandmother once told me she was there and Garson came on stage in a white gown and spoke to the audience. How lucky were they? If all of her films, the performance that really blew me away was her Eleanore Roosevelt in Sunrise at Campobello. It came as a complete surprise. The same could be said, I guess, about her tv performance as Regina in The Little Foxes. You can't get any further away from Mrs. Miniver!

[@alittleadriftandbuffet]

One of my favourite actresses❤❤❤

[@mombam]

Indeed, she was matchless. I hope they show her less-well-known films again. I missed seeing some of them in April.

[@davidhaynes689]

I love her I wish she had made a film with Joan Crawford can u just imagine wow !!!

[@dustypink4802]

She did! It was called 'When Ladies Meet' (1941) and is one of my favourites!

[@hapatim28]

David Haynes she did, WHEN LADIES MEET, they even had a scene together

[@Themanwhocameback2]

Yes, and Greer blew Joan out of the water.

[@davidhearns1183]

oh wow i need to check that out !!!!!

It's TRUE everyone loved her when she appear for the 1st time in america in goodbye mr chips

I loved Garson and Gregory Peck together in Valley of Decision. Gladys Cooper is brilliant in that, too

[@elijahrose2144]

Position greatness😊❤

[@a.rosesrbleu9580]

To me, she will always be Mr. CHIPS' Kathy...😊

[@mdesapio]

"Irish Green eyes." Greer Garson was not Irish. She was born and raised in London and her ancestry was Scotch-Irish, which is a different thing altogether.

[@sedekiman]

Absolutely! If you are born in England you are-English-British. If you are born in America you are American, and that's it! Not Irish, German, Afro, etc. etc. American!

[@adelinesantodonato7955]

Awesome actress

[@lanaspencer8487]

I have her whole collection, but Mrs. Minivier is my favorite!

[@Kim-xt3se]

I love her... Even now when most of my friends never heard of her. I saw every single movie. But which film is it when the guy is kissing her while sailing on the boat? 🥰

[@김평생-c2z]

I think 'Good bye, Mr Chips'.

[@FashionistaDude]

Greer Garson was overwhelmingly of Scottish ancestry.

[@sedekiman]

Born in London and a beautiful English accent.

[@pgammond10]

Class

[@amayaaum9792]

Am trying to remember the name of a movie, thought it was with her, from I think the late 40's. In color but subdued. Starts out where she and son are on a train, England, she has on dark green. Later she is remembering (flashback is a big part of the story) to meeting them reuniting during his leave with her love / husband / the father who went off to war who the son doesn't know. In the end, (or the end of that memory) she is standing on a hotel balcony with him across from a park with a gazebo. Last time she saw him. I thought 'I'll be seeing you' was the song playing. . . Ring any bells? If anyone remembers the name of this movie, (Greer or not sure who it was but sure thought it was her) would love to hear the name from you. Thanks. Love Greer Garson.

[@sedekiman]

I think you are thinking of The White Cliffs of Dover with Irene Dunne-another red head-and Alan Marshall.

[@amyclarke41]

Yes

[@scotnick59]

She was just too prissy for Clark Gable in "real" life.

[@oldhollywoodlover1]

I wish there was a TCM Tribute for Norma Shearer

[@Aumilayo]

+Old Hollywood Lover this month is for her.

[@oldhollywoodlover1]

Cool! But I don't have regular tv or cable so I can't watch it. I hope it'll get uploaded on youtube by TCM :)

[@sjcohen4444]

Old Hollywood Lover l've seen a TCM tribute by Janet Leigh, who Shearer discovered at a ski resort Leigh's father ran. In fact, I think Shearer didn't see her in person, just a photograph.

[@AsmaKhan-k6l]

I just watched Men from Shiloh with Greer Garson & James Whitmore in it from 1970 (Season 9 Episode 8) that was pretty good. Well written, which would explain how it lasted 9 seasons. James Drury and Lee Majors must have left the show by then. But I HATE that the Virginian & "Men of Shiloh" both are listed on Comcast/Xfinity without a list of the guest stars and their bio's being made available to viewers interested in watching. The guest stars on old westerns, to a large extent, determine whether I am going to have any interest in watching the episode. It really annoys me that this information is available for other westerns but it is not readily available for these 2 shows on Comcast. WRZ 2023-03-06

[@billzardus95]

So you're saying the surviving Murdaugh son is also a useless POS ??? Well that certainly is a surprise !! And I suspect their cousins are too. WRZ 2023-03-06 Doug McClure must have spent half his adult life on the Virginian (9 years) & The Men From Shiloh (9 years). Men Of Shiloh is now available for viewing on Free vee. I wasn't even aware of this series until today. I just watched one with Greer Garson & James Whitmore in it from 1970 (Season 9 Episode 8) that was pretty good.
