RIP Lee Ann Remick (December 14, 1935 - July 2, 1991) (aged 55) a talented and amazing actress

[@Billnn54]

Thank you for posting this. Lee Remick, to me, is one of the most beautiful, most talented actresses to ever grace the stage or screen in the U.S. I had a crush on her from the first time that I saw her, and I still have it, even though she has been dead for a very long time. In 1966 when she starred in the Broadway production of 'Wait Until Dark', I waited to get her autograph after a performance, and the only other person waiting was her mother. They invited me to go and have dinner with them at Sardi's (I was a NASA engineer, which was a big deal to many people at the time), but I felt that I didn't belong, so I thanked them but chose not to accompany them. That is one of the few regrets that I have had in my 80 years of life. I hope that this beautiful, talented lady will never be forgotten by the future generations.

[@Bigbadwhitecracker]

+Bill Campbell What a nice but bittersweet story. Thank you for sharing!!!

[@Walterwhiterocks]

I also saw her in "Wait until Dark" on broadway. She was terrific. Jane Fonda was a good, not great actress. It's too bad for her legacy that she later became a traitor to her country.

[@elissel]

Lee's performance in the Days if Wine & Roses was deserving of an Oscar....she and Lemon & Kligman were all AWESOME in that picture.....

[@preppysocks209]

The winner was Anne Bancroft, who appeared a bit earlier as MG. This was the year that Bette Davis was nominated for Whatever Happened to Baby Jane and her costar, Joan Crawford plotted against her receiving the Oscar. Joan lobbied hard against Bette among Academy members. She also went to all the other nominees, including Lee Remick, and asked if she could accept the award on their behalf if they won. I forget how many agreed but one who did was Anne Bancroft for The Miracle Worker. Davis wanted that Oscar so bad but she didn't win it, and not only that, she had to see a beaming Joan Crawford go up on stage to accept the Oscar for the actual winner. That is hatred for you.

[@playinthedark3054]

To have the incomparable Lee Remick and Jane Fonda on the same stage at the same time is worth its weight in gold. Interestingly, Remick was in NY for the opening of Days of Wine and Roses, co-starring with Jack Lemmon. The film, which hadn't opened yet, did not elicit any reviews at the time of this WML episode, but the film would go on to become one of the most beautiful, painful and harrowing examinations of alcoholism ever put on film. Both Remick and Lemmon received Oscar nominations in the leading actor/actress categories, as did the film itself for Best Picture.

[@loissimmons6558]

The showing of Da Vinci's "Mona Lisa" in NYC led to one of the first really big and successful promotions by WABC radio program director Rick Sklar. With just about every newspaper in the NYC metro area putting a large full-color picture in their Sunday paper (the strike was over by then), he decided to have a contest for listeners to possibly win a prize by submitting their versions of the famed painting. The contest offered prizes for the best, worst, largest and smallest copies of the Mona Lisa. The smallest was fairly easy to judge. Two were submitted on microdots and one was smaller than the other. The largest required more ingenuity. There were so many that were very large that they had to bring them to the Polo Grounds which was in its last year as a professional sports stadium (Mets and Titans). It was a windy day and they had run out of scoreboard numerals to hold the artwork in place. Bohack's supermarkets were a sponsor on the station and they were able to divert a delivery truck carrying large sacks of flour to save the day. The best and worst efforts created a different kind of problem. The lawyers in charge of WABC's standards and practices demanded to know who would judge the best and worst. They were concerned with guarding what was becoming a valuable license and they wanted no questions regarding the legitimacy of the contest. Sklar came up with Salvatore Dali as the judge. Sklar arranged for the artwork to be displayed at a Manhattan department store. But they ran out of room. So Sklar prejudged some of the work that he felt didn't have a chance to win and stacked them in a back room. Dali insisted on seeing everything. (After all, he had to judge which one was the worst as well as the best.) Dali was quickly able to find one that he declared was the most tragic effort among Sklar's rejects. But Dali fooled Sklar. He also selected one of Sklar's rejects to be the best one. When Sklar asked why, Dali told him that it was going to be next year's newest big thing in the art world. Dali picked a drawing by a military officer that was in cartoon style, showing Mona Lisa peering out the window of a space capsule on top of a rocket with the moon in the background. It was Pop Art.

[@preppysocks209]

And so it was a harbinger of the next big thing in art. Dali was truly a genius. And his WML appearance is one of the most memorable of all MGs.

[@bluecamus5162]

Well, that was interesting. This American culture does have SOME redeeming qualities, or at least it used to.

[@rivaridge7211]

Lois, your in-depth replies are simply the best! I was (still am) a huge fan of Salvatore Dali - his surreal art just sang to my soul. I can recall (years back) my local PBS station doing a special on this great artist's works - it was entitled "Hello Dali" ;-)

What a rare, unique beauty that Lee Remick was.

[@519djw6]

Stan daMann I agree that she was absolutely gorgeous. And she was an excellent actress, as well. "Days of Wine and Roses" is, in my opinion, one of the best movies to come out of the 1960s.

[@jmccracken1963]

+519DJW It is a very good film - and so is the original "Playhouse 90" showing of J.P. Miller's teleplay, in which the two principal roles were played by Cliff Robertson and Piper Laurie. (That "Playhouse 90" performance can be found in at least one DVD collection, "The Golden Age of Hollywood," in a set devoted to some of the best 1950s drama anthology teleplays, including the orignal "Marty," "No Time for Sergeants," "Requiem for a Heavyweight," and "Bang The Drum Slowly," as well.)

It was nice to see Robert Q. Lewis again. I know that What's My Line? is not too fond of him, but I've always liked him as a panelist. He looks a bit worse for wear here -- even thinner than before, and it looks as if something happened to part of his face, but I was happy to find out through research that he lived for many years after this (until 1991). According to IMDb, his credits include quite a few TV shows and films that I'm sure I have seen, yet I had never heard of him until I started watching these WML episodes. It will be interesting to see some of those shows and films again now that I know who he was.

But RQL's quick retort to John Daly's mention of it being painted on poplar wood was very good.

[@neilmidkiff]

Speaking of pop'lar, I was surprised to learn several years ago that until the later 19th century, it was just one of many well-known paintings in the world, not *the* most famous work of the European Old Masters. Walter Pater in an 1869 essay famously praised it -- even Jeeves quotes Pater to Bertie Wooster -- but it was not until a museum employee stole it from the Louvre in 1911 that it became front-page news and an icon of popular culture.

He replaced Kenneth Battelle who had been a What’s My Line? contestant in 1961. Kenneth did the minimalist styling of Dorothy’s hair that you see here on January 13, 1963.

The painting of the Phillips Collection that John mentioned was stolen was a Paul Klee watercolor. It was not restored to the Phillips Collection until 1997. The purported owner of the painting for all but one year after it was stolen (the one year being the fist year) bought it at an outdoor art auction. The painting was insured for much more than it was worth at the time it was stolen but much less than it was worth when it was recovered. No charges were brought. In the settlement, the owner gave the painting back to the Phillips for no monetary compensation. He tried to take a charitable tax deduction but I am unable to determine whether it was allowed. The best story on that concept was a Rauschenberg painting containing a bald eagle feather that was donated to the Metropolitan Museum of Art several years ago.

[@jmccracken1963]

Is there a reason why "Robert Q. Lewis [panel]" isn't included in the "big" title of this particular post? I think that he should be given equal credit as a guest panelist with Jane Fonda, as they were, indeed, both guest panelists. According to IMDB, "Period of Adjustment" opened on 31 October 1962 - the same day that "Whatever Happened to Baby Jane?" had its gala world/U.S. premiere opening in Cincinnati. The only "carry-over" from the Broadway cast to the movie was the director, George Roy Hill, who made his big-screen debut with "Period of Adjustment" (he had directed on Broadway and for several TV drama anthology shows prior to that). Hill would go on to direct 14 movies between 1962 and 1988; I have seen three of them ("Toys in the Attic," "The Sting," and "Slap Shot"). In addition to "Days of Wine and Roses," which had had its gala world premiere opening in Los Angeles on 26 December 1962 and which would open in New York on Thursday, 19 January 1963, Lee Remick would make two movies in 1963: "The Running Man" (made in England) for Columbia Pictures and "The Wheeler-Dealers" (made in the U.S.) for MGM.

[@christopherspiteri7740]

Actually they were both released in 1963 but The running Man was shot in the summer of 1962, before this appearance and even before the release of Days of Wine and Roses. The Wheeler dealers started shooting in February 1962, a few weeks after this tv appearance, probably just after the oscar nominations were announced but before the oscar ceremony which at the time generally took place in April.

Meteoric rise? She worked steadily over the years, but part of that work was in plays (a future Mystery Guest appearance on WML? would be during the initial Broadway run of Frederick Knott's "Wait Until Dark," in which she played Suzy) - and, when she remarried in 1970, to British producer Kip Gowans, she moved to England and made some movies and TV there over the last 21 years of her life (as well as some in the U.S.). She was also quite choosy - and rightfully so - about what she would appear in and with whom. (I like her in the 1983 TV showing of a stage performance of "I Do! I Do!", in which she co-stars with Hal Linden. They both sing and dance and act very well. I purchased a DVD copy of the telecast through Premiere Opera, Ltd. in New York some years ago.)

[@christopherspiteri7740]

@@jmccracken1963 Her decision to move to England, reduced her options. She was also more interested in choosing material that interested her rather than commmercial projects that may have given her more immediate visibility. She was also adamant in not doing nudity, as for example in A severed head she is the only one of the 3 main female characters who does not undress. She was also occassionally unlucky in her choice of projects, as for example Mel Ferrer buying the rights of Wait Until Darl for Audrey Hepburn thereby negating her the possibility of repeating her stage role on screen and Robert Redford deciding to cast Mary Tyler Moore in ordinary people after he had practically signed Lee for the part. She also left Agnes of God when the play was still off broadway. If she had stayed with it she might have gotten the role in the film, which role ironically went to Fonda.

At 8:44, John Daly says that the Smithsonian Institution was the parent organization of the National Gallery of Art. But since the museum building was built in 1937 to the present day, the National Gallery of Art has been independent of the Smithsonian.

[@Noone58319]

Yeah, that’s what I thought, too.

[@downbntout]

Everyone's so slim, or was back then.

[@roberthockett270]

Before Nixon's Ag Secretary Earl Butts made sure that everything would be made with corn syrup.

[@downbntout]

@@roberthockett270 he spelled it Butz, but yep

[@slaytonp]

It's not that they were so slim "back then." That was simply the normal way the majority of people were. It's that so many people are so extremely obese now that fat is the normal way to be. The reasons are too obvious to go into---The change in life style from generally active to sedentary, and the average diet changed from cooking meals toward junk-food.

[@judylondon7126]

@@slaytonp I think that's one of the key takeaways in comparing cultures between then and now.

[@slaytonp]

@@judylondon7126 It's also rather ironic that one of the good things, the opening of careers and jobs for women outside the home contributed initially to the junk food market and quickie meals. It didn't take long before a second income was a necessity in order to maintain the middle class standard of living for many people.

My God that Jane Fonda was HOT!

too bad she's a traitor

Note how Dottie could turn that saccharine smile into a sourpuss snarl in an instant … oooooh!

[@bilingualservicesllcnelson2759]

Another worldly ...

[@Oso8467]

Nice memories. Ladies knew to remain seated...gentlemen knew to stand. And Jane Fonda was clueless and funny at this particular time....before she got all full of herself. Loved loved loved Lee Remick!

[@laura1000]

Has Jane Fonda ever spoken about her experience as a WML panelist? It would be interesting to know how she remembers it.

[@roberttelarket4934]

Is it in the Bologna family? I don’t know anyone in the Bologna family - ha ha ha!!!

[@kingforaday8725]

Before watching WML Id never really heard of Robert Q Lewis. Evidently he was a pretty popular guy. On the web one can read back issues of a magazine called TV-Radio Mirror. Lots of information you can find on celebrities that appear on WML.

[@algoritmosalfredohipicasig7116]

Strange, but I recall that Cleveland radio sports personality, Peter J. Franklin had the hots for Lee Remick.

[@rapunzelz5520]

I ❤️ Qsie

[@Qboro66]

Lee Remick's look on this appearance reminds me a little of Kirsten Dunst.

[@toddmccreary4579]

Of course the dude wasn't watching the Mona Lisa right then.

[@normasandow]

Too bad Jack Lemmon wasn’t on the panel that night. It would have been special

[@josemeda1259]

Fonda is pretty, but Remick is beautiful.

[@preppysocks209]

@z Do you ever think about the content of your comments before you post them?

[@waldolydecker8118]

Fonda is alive, but Remick is dead

[@algoritmosalfredohipicasig7116]

As they chanted in the Popeye cartoon, "Salami, Salami, Baloney."

[@gailsirois7175]

Jane Fonda must have been 20 something...low end ...so silly she was

[@soulierinvestments]

Who knew salami was so funny? John does know from salami either.

[@Bigbadwhitecracker]

+soulierinvestments "Can you buy it at Toots Shor's?"

[@disvids8754]

OK, maybe someone commented, but I havent' seen it .. wasn't it a bit creepy how Fonda turned her face so close to Lewis?

[@lauracollins4195]

DisVids - Yes, I see that too... around 22:00.

[@roberthockett270]

Lucky Lewis. Jane was and still is one of the most vibrant people ever to have lived.

[@shuroom57]

Oh, she's just flirting.

[@yeahnoonecaresifyouarefirst]

I love dentesting! 😂 #iykyk ❤

[@uselessjoe]

she was on 3 different episodes.. sadly, she died only 28 years after this

[@DeanStrickson]

uselessjoe 28 years later.

[@uselessjoe]

that's what I said

[@kristabrewer9363]

Dorothy looks older here (and yes, I KNOW people get older, but up until now, I've never seen her age any)

[@MrJoeybabe25]

I think the laughs we hear about the line of the salami girl is how one's breath may smell when eating the food. However that was 1963. Today's unfortunate cruddy culture might elicit the same amount of laughter, but I think we would be thinking along the lines of a sexual connotation.

[@sbalman]

Although most comments are interesting, the comments that are so negative and judgmental have made me realize I need to stop reading the comments.
