“The truth is, I feel beyond sad. I feel empty. Numb. I felt nothing all the time, and it had started to feel normal. It should have scared me, but it didn’t.” - Elizabeth Scott
People can have many faces. I live in a unit complex where two people do terrible vicious things- because they didn't want to share power and were stopped from destroying the amenity and value of the building...so they got shouting and written slander campaigns against the people trying to improve the buildings, sabotage, damaging cars, etc etc AND also convinced some gullible people that they were the good saintly people. They were sweet as candy & helpful- even as they used these new "friends" to cause trouble and take the blame in the building too.
This whole thing is all fabricated. Lizabeth wasn’t a lesbian; she confirmed it. She never murdered anyone. This chick who does these always gets things wrong bc she doesn’t do her research and she makes her own judgements.
I think dressing well seemed to die around the middle 1980’s. My parents had always taught their children to put their best foot forward… apparently today, not so much 😢
You've been really doing some classic yet unknown actresses so many didn't appreciate. I LOVE these back stories. I feel you truly found joy in analyzing the wonder of unsung heroes. As a Scorpio, you honor them in their death.
Lizbeth Scott was a beautiful sexy woman back the the studio ran these stars lives now there are no stars there TikTok reality stars ruins the magic of Hollywood now it HOLLYWEIRD shame
Today's Hollywood stars aren't stars. They dont stand out and shine against the darkness of this world--but rather, they ARE the darkness--the void. So, consequently, none of them carry the necessary star quality.
Lizabeth Scott was always compared to Lauren Bacall since they shared some physical attributes and their voices were unusually deep for women. Both women had been tagged with an image moniker: Lauren Bacall was known as "The Look" and Lizabeth Scott was called "The Threat" which derived from a critic's description of Scott: "She's the Threat, to the Body, the Voice and the Look." "The Body" (Marie McDonald), "The Voice" (Frank Sinatra) and "The Look" (Lauren Bacall). Even though they sounded alike there were differences in accent, diction and timbre between Scott and Bacall. Bacall's accent is pre-World War II, upper-middle-class New York metropolitan, often mistaken for Mid-Atlantic due to the broad "A" and non-rho-tic pronunciation of words containing "R." Unlike Scott's inherited low tone, Bacall originally had a naturally high tone with a nasal timbre and fast tempo, but had trained herself to pitch her voice lower and slow down her delivery. Despite Bacall's "mannered toughness" and Scott's "breathy theatricality" both women had what they called at the time a "smoky voice." But more notable than any actual similarity between Bacall and Scott were the people, institutions and events they had in common: the Walter Thornton Agency, Harper's Bazaar, Irving Hoffman, Charles Feldman and the Famous Talent Corporation, Humphrey Bogart, and the "Second Red Scare" (1947-1954). Also, both actresses made Bogart's personal list of the nine "most potent" kissers "in movie love scenes" in which he participated. Lizabeth Virginia Scott (born Emma Matzo September 29, 1922 - January 31, 2015) in Scranton, Pennsylvania. Lizabeth Scott, was disclaimed by the film critics as a second -- rate Lauren Bacall but though they have similar qualities in my opinion they are quite different in their acting abilities. I never like to compare actors or actresses to say who had more talent. Its unfair to the actors. Lizabeth might not be so well known today since she made her last film in 1957 titled Loving You costarring Elvis Presley, Lizabeth Scott did a cameo in 1972 in a film titled Pulp. Also Lizabeth never married but she did do interviews later on about her career mostly in film noirs. Of her 22 films, she was the leading lady in all but one. In addition to stage and radio, she appeared on television from the late 1940s to early 1970s. In the last twenty years since film noir has become more popular so too has Lizabeth Scott she has been gaining a belated reputation as a superior actress. Her unmannered projection of the now archaic tough girl is direct and vibrant, elevating it from the confines of its times. Scott's style of acting, characteristic of other film actors of the 1940s -- a cool, naturalistic underplay derived from multiple sources -- was often depreciated by critics who preferred the more emphatic stage styles of the pre-film era or the later method styles. Unlike her predecessors at Paramount, Lizabeth Scott was not contracted to the studio but to the company's leading independent producer Hal B. Wallis, who, like David O. Selznick before him made a lucrative business of loaning out his contractees to other producers with substantial profit for himself. This breakdown of the omnipotent studio's star system worked to Lizabeth Scott's strong disadvantage. Paramount was disinclined to promote a free-lance player who was so tenuous a part of its set-up. Compounding her plight was her rebellious individuality. She had little use for the conventional homage usually paid to the establishment in the film industry, and rarely kowtowed to the ranking institutions, gossip columnists Louella Parsons and Hedda Hopper. With rare exceptions, Lizabeth Scott was stereotyped on the screen as the corrupt chanteuse who had no desire or will to change her sinister ways, and was doomed to find a worthwhile good guy to love her only when it was too late and she had already passed the point of redemption. She worked best in tandem with such strong screen personalities as Burt Lancaster, Kirk Douglas and Charlton Heston. In 2003, film historian Bernard F. Dick interviewed Scott for his biography of Wallis. The results was an entire chapter titled "Morning Star." In the chapter, the author observed that during the interview, Scott (then 80 or 81 years old) was still able to recite her opening monologue from The Skin of Our Teeth, which she had learned six decades earlier. Lizabeth Scott died of congestive heart failure at the age of 92 on January 31, 2015.
I love old movies, mostly those made before I was born. When I see Lizabeth Scott in a film she reminds me of Lauren Bacall. Similar looks. Always learn something new from Karine's interesting explorations of elite individuals.
I love her movies! I think because Lizbeth was not a push over for men like Burt Lancaster, who most actress chased, she got a reputation as a b word. Thank You another fabulous story! Your content is fantastic!😊💐
My thoughts exactly she didn't play the Hollywood game and they ostracized her. Rene Zelleweger is another actress not liked by the press and lives outside of Hollywood.
I’m sorry but not everyone loved Lucille Ball. Also, all this bad press for Scott reminds me of so many women ruined by Hollywood. Frances Farmer, comes to mind.
Strong women get maligned. Gods forbid she took up for herself or be strong. The casting couch was a well known device and even tho it was common most knew it would not lead to major roles. It always makes me laugh when folks talk about witches and witchcraft. If yall only knew how many of your doctors and teachers and nurses etc are pagan. They aren't evil if they practice. People can be good and bad and has NOTHING to do with magick.
@@1233-h1 I know that I'm in the minority here, but I've never found Lucy funny. I don't deny her talent, esp in the few dramatic turns she had with films like Lured. But for humor, I'll take Lily Tomlin or Carol Brunett over Lucy. Everytime
@@waynej2608 I agree in the,sense that her comedic genius was that it worked because she had the ability to choose the right folks to bounce off of. Funny in her own right. Absolutely not. But throw in Vivian Vance, Ricki and Frawley she could shine brightly that way. In all her interviews she came off as rather dull except with Johnny Carson. Her physical comedy was all her own and she was master at that. But you are right. Burnett and Tomlin are much better.😊
I literally used to skip school to watch the Turner Classic Movies channel and follow all the video old Hollywood gossip and never in my life have I heard the lesbian killed my boy fiancé story! I am unprepared for this! I needed popcorn!
Hollywood hated her says it all and made me interested in her. She wanted a private life and shunned gossip columnists a mistake in Hollywood. You'll probably find a lot of those actors had a dark past.
I'm quite obsessed with old Hollywood and love Noir, however, the industry is completely evil. Often employing very talented h00kers and rent boys and abusing them beyond belief.
I loved Lisabeth Scott. Her movies are mesmerising! The letter with the boyfriend was somewhat manipulative that he left her a fortune she didn't get, but takes nothing away from her talent.
Too Late for Tears is one of my favorite movies but I wouldn’t call her a good actress. Her costar said she could have any part she wanted because she was married to the director.
One of the best bio on this woman! You filled in the blanks about Scott’s alleged lesbian interest I came away believing she made so many enemies that people leaked it knowing it was not true! I still say she personified the film noire fem fatale. I fell in love with her expressive fem fatale eyes!
Did you notice that this video said "Everybody loved Lucille Ball?" With her success, that changed. I don't know when she became less loveable, but certainly during I Love Lucy, she wasn't so nice - even to Vivian Vance. I saw a video not long ago, and she even treated Richard Burton and Elizabeth Taylor like underlings. Burton didn't like her.
Her description at the beginning for the negative traits is reminding me of Amber Heard 🤐 also your biographies are always a treat and so entertaining!
Another actress who intrigues me is Francis Farmer. The actress Jessica Lange did a biopic on her life called "Francis"... Her story is so heartbreaking and goes to show just how Hollywood treated a woman who did not want to conform. She preferred the broadway stage over Hollywood. Unfortunately, her pushy over bearing mother took over her life. She pressured her to go back to Hollywood cause it was Mama ambition to go Hollywood. Francis wanted a simple life. Her Mother became her guardian and had her institutionalized.
🤬 I still cannot stand her so-called Mother 'til this day. Frances suffered horrific abuse in that mental institution. Downright barbaric. Hard movie 2 watch also, but Jessica did her justice!
Hello lovely Karine!! I really enjoy your channel!! I’m of the age where I grew up on old black& white movies from Hollywood. Nothing against the movie stars of today, but I’m partial to the old Hollywood glam- and the sometimes dark side of that era. Thanks for your unbiased coverage of a lot of my favorite stars of yesterday. Have you ever thought of doing a video on Jose Ferrer? I’d love to hear your take on his life and career!! Thanks for all you do!! Sending love & blessings to you and your family!!😍😍😍🙏🙏🙏
My wife purchased several pieces of Scott’s glamorous wardrobe when her personal estate was auctioned off in Los Angeles. Her favorite Scott garment is a red and green plaid sequin jacket that my wife wears every Christmas. People always comment on the dazzling jacket which usually leads to a conversation about Lizabeth Scott, film noir, etc. We can only imagine the places where Scott would have worn such an amazing jacket and can only hope that glamour regains some of its popularity.
Of course she didn't want her man to blab... She was busy being naughty, messing with married men and doing whatever to get a part. To me, that's a no. Its different if the woman had no clue the man was married but when they know and they don't care? I know today a lot of females seem to think that it's better to be a side chick but I'm older so I can't get behind that line of thinking. I do have to wonder, when she was sleeping her way to the top and taking other women's parts, would she appreciate it if it was done to her? Probably not. Can't stand hypocrisy either.
One of my favorite classic actresses because of her haunting looks and rough voice. Her talent wasnt great but she worked it lol. Thank you Sis for another great synopsis 🎬🎥
I really like your channel. One of my favorite iconic actresses is Carole Lombard. Her story is very interesting and I did notice that you hadn’t covered her story before. I wonder if you could uncover any other information about her that could develop into an interesting episode. Not only is she iconic but also a refreshing inspiration to the refined spiritual nature of some individuals. She literally bankrolled this country’s 🇺🇸 startup into WW2. A true American Heroine.
I like Lizabeth Scott, but I did not think was a beauty, I think she's attractive, but had a strong almost masculine look. As far as the movie Martha Ives she was good but could never steal a movie from Barbara Stanwyck. Even in the one scene they had together, Barbara being the queen thespian that she was, barely even acknowledge her in the scene, which made Liz look beneath her in the scene, Barbara hands down owned that movie
This is very true. Scott couldn't hold a candle to her. Nobody could. I loved Stanwyck and in my opinion she was the BEST actress for years. She was also the highest paid for years. But she lived quite modestly.
@@1233-h1 By contrast, Stanwyck was rather gentle with the insecurities of a young Marilyn Monroe on 1952's "Clash By Night". Marilyn was a very different personality type, though.
I love learning someone new on your channel. These icons had some tea, and I enjoy sipping on 😅😅. I feel like her favorite color would be blue, red, yellow, or black
Isn't it ironic that everyone mentioned in this trash is dead and unable to confirm, deny or defend themselves? 70 years after Confidential Magazine scandalized her name, lo and behold here you are doing it again only worse. She was a beautiful, sultry, talented actress sullied by the tabloids and hack writers. LEAVE HER ALONE.
You are right - I think she was ahead of her time, refusing to behave like other actresses were expected to. I always liked her, and as a young teen wore my hair exactly like her. Funny there is no one alive to confirm or deny this character assassination.
It reminds me of Bette Davis’ character in Dangerous with Franchot Tone 1935. She plays an alcoholic actress who left the stage thinking she was a jinx for her peers. I love Lizbeth Scott. Highly underrated actress who doesn’t seem to have been any different in her tactics to claw her way up to the top. I just watched a long like 6 separate reel interview with her. She really came across highly intelligent and with definite knowledge of how to manipulate the system and play the game. I say more power to her! She’s beautiful and warm and witty with a great capacity to laugh at herself and the hypocrisy of Hollywood then and now. ❤
I think she was just ruthless, and very private. An era where men expect a beautiful woman to be beautiful and obedient. Everyoen in Hollywood saw what Wallace did for her and maybe expected her to play the doting wife. She didn't. I think she really was a lot like her film noir personalities. I think she was just one of those people who had super bad trust issues, rarely feels lonely and rarely falls in love. I'm very similar and that freaks people out. Though I will admit whatever she did with Kurt Douglas...I'm guessing she must be super vain and super hard to please, no one has time for that.
She was beautiful and talented, but never fulfilled her potential. She was the queen of film noir. In Hollywood she was referred to as a "baritone babe" - euphemism for lesbian.
I am a fan of her movies I like her raspy voice & she has some masculine features or maybe because she comes across as a strong aggressive personality & for that time 30's &40's) it was found to be different. I am an old woman so I was taught that woman do not behave that way but secretly as a teenager I admired & wished I could be straightforward like her.
I loved her in "The Strange Loves of Martha Ivers." She was a great beauty with a distinct, sultry voice. The epitome of the 1940s femme fatale. Nice to know that she was a friend to Michael Jackson. Thank you for this video.
What a nasty hit piece. So, not one person in her life said one good thing about her? Even though she was engaged several times and had numerous affairs with men, you call her a lesbian without siting any affair with another women. You even accuse her of murder without the death ever having been called a murder! She was a very close friend of Debbie Reynolds Who was considered a nice person. And Debbie thought she was just fine. There is an 8 part interview of her at age 74 on You Tube. She was a perfectly delight, intelligent women.
Here's the truth about Lizabeth Scott - Lizabeth Scott's screen image goes hand-in-hand with Film Noir. Lizabeth Scott was always compared to Lauren Bacall since they shared some physical attributes and their voices were unusually deep for women. Both women had been tagged with an image moniker: Lauren Bacall was known as "The Look" and Lizabeth Scott was called "The Threat" which derived from a critic's description of Scott: "She's the Threat, to the Body, the Voice and the Look." "The Body" (Marie McDonald), "The Voice" (Frank Sinatra) and "The Look" (Lauren Bacall). Lizabeth Virginia Scott was born as Emma Matzo on September 29, 1922 in Scranton, Pennsylvania. Lizabeth Scott, was disclaimed by the film critics as a second rate Lauren Bacall but though they do have similar qualities in my opinion they are quite different in their acting abilities. Lizabeth Scott's screen debut was in the film You Came Along (1945, Paramount Pictures) Scott had the starring role as Ivy "Hotcha" Hotchkiss, while the screenplay was written by conversational Ayn Rand and well directed by John Farrow. But it was her next film that she struck gold The Strange Love Of Martha Ivers (1946, Paramount Pictures) and it was her first entry into realm of Noir. Of all her films the one that she will be remembered for will be Too Late For Tears (1949, United Artists) here she plays Jane Palmer a femme fatale in every sense of expression here displaying a complete lack of conscience and empathy as she murders anyone who gets in her way. She was so convincing as the seductive, husky-voiced scheming who is pathologically unable to understand the enormity of her crimes. One of her first victims was her poor husband who didn't have a chance. Even the presence of Dan Duryea a noted Noir villain himself could not even save himself against Scott. Of her 22 films, she was the leading lady in all but one. In addition to stage and radio, she appeared on television from the late 1940s to early 1970s. As Film Noir became more and more popular so too has Lizabeth Scott she had been gaining a belated reputation as a superior actress. What set her apart from other film noir actresses was her unmannered projection of the now archaic tough girl which was direct and vibrant thus elevating it from the confines of its times. Scott's style of acting, characteristic of other film actors of the 1940s -- a cool, naturalistic underplay derived from multiple sources -- was often not appreciated by critics who preferred the more emphatic stage styles of the pre-film era or the later method acting styles. Unlike her predecessors at Paramount, Lizabeth Scott was not contracted to the studio but to the company's leading independent producer Hal B. Wallis, who, like David O. Selznick before him made a lucrative business of loaning out his contract players to other producers and studios with a substantial profit for himself. When the breakdown of the studio's star system started in the early to mid-1950s this worked to Lizabeth Scott's disadvantage. Paramount was disinclined to promote a free-lance player who was so tenuously not a part of its set-up. Compounding her plight was her rebellious individuality and outspokeness. She had little use for the conventional homage usually paid to the establishment in the film industry, and rarely kowtowed to the ranking institutions, gossip columnists especially the two dragons of Hollywood: Louella Parsons and Hedda Hopper. With rare exceptions in films as Paid In Full (1950, Paramount Pictures) here as the good sister who sacrifices everything even her own life for her self-centered younger sister played with verve by Diana Lynn. Usually Lizabeth Scott was stereotyped on the screen as the corrupt chanteuse who had no desire or will to change her sinister ways. Meaning that Scott was doomed to find a worthwhile good guy to love her but only when it was too late and she had already passed the point of redemption. She worked best in tandem with such strong screen personalities as Burt Lancaster, Kirk Douglas and Charlton Heston. In 2003, film historian Bernard F.

Lizabeth Scott died of congestive heart failure at the age of 92 on January 31, 2015. All About Eve was supposed to take place with the actress Elizabeth Bergner not Lizabeth Scott get your facts right
Wow! She had a very long life. You gave an excellent critique of her that gives a different slant to her. She seems to have been her very own person who lived life on her terms and who refused to get swallowed up by the systems she encountered and worked within. Nor the expectations of convention. She looked out for herself and had a kind of inner strength that is rare and intimidating. And she couldn't be completely controlled and manipulated. She won mostly, lost occasionally and had many chapters in her book of life. I love film noir and I'm going to watch a couple of her movies this weekend. THANK you. Excellent reporting.😊👳♂️
Thanks for that information. I’m not saying the video is incorrect, but when I hear a woman from that era was Independent, strong, rebellious and outspoken, and then hear she was not liked, I have to question the info and rumors. I’ll do my own research before I accept any information from this video as fact.
Your videos are excellent and much appreciated in an era where others are using AI! Thank you. The AI videos mispronounce words and show pictures that are wrong! Yours are genuine and accurate. Thanks again.
I absolutely love your channel and your videos too. So inspirational and sincere. I think Hollywood tends to make certain women if not all women in Hollywood like some toy or try to control and I feel like she wasn't going to just stand for in and everything. Her image was being tormented in the media because she wasn't going to let ts slide. It's kinda sounds similar to Marilyn Monroe. Another Gorgeous Actress that had a hard upbringing became successful and hollywood treated her like shit.
No matter what Apple does to the iPhone the pictures do not come out as good as those black and white pictures of the 20's, 30's and 40's They are masterpieces from all those involved..
What's up Karine?! Have you considered making a video of the late Kobe Bryant? I don't know if you're into professional sports but feel his life would be a great topic for your channel.
I was a 1950's baby. I remember watching Lizabeth Scott in some of the old movies in black and white. I never liked Lizabeth Scott. I always felt there was just something about her that I found repulsive. I know it's a strong word, but I really got how Burt Lancaster felt. I was just a kid, but something about her really rubbed me the wrong way and it never changed. Finding out she was a scoundrel of a woman means the feelings I had about her, not her acting, but her, were spot on!
I respect her for not putting her personal life all in the spotlight. A lot of actors and actresses who did that back then were kind of putting their personal lives out in a fake way so the fact that she didn't put herself out like that makes me respect her.
@@aliyaheubanks4477 Especially, if she poisoned him with the oleander flower. One lady said that she had a beautiful garden. I bet thise poisonous flowers were in it! 🤔

P.S.--Miss Bankhead led a pretty nasty life herself. Scandalous even by Hollywood standards.
She was definitely a bad-ass girl back in the day....she was lovers with Billie Holliday it's written...
I've always loved her in film noirs. She had that air of sultry mystery, sort of like a Lauren Bacall.

I thought she looked a bit like Lauren Bacall too.
They are mesmerizing and amazing compared to the garbage they produce today for billions of dollars or whatever they spend on trash.
No only their hairdo
Me too, I always got the two mixed up and thought they might be sisters because they looked so much alike and acted so much alike.

Veronica has a more feminine face, in my humble opinion.
I’m sorry but not everyone loved Lucille Ball. Also, all this bad press for Scott reminds me of so many women ruined by Hollywood. Frances Farmer, comes to mind.
True. Lucille Ball had a very nasty side too. She was a female comedic genius and businesswoman. Her first husband also but he was a player.
Strong women get maligned. Gods forbid she took up for herself or be strong. The casting couch was a well known device and even tho it was common most knew it would not lead to major roles. It always makes me laugh when folks talk about witches and witchcraft. If yall only knew how many of your doctors and teachers and nurses etc are pagan. They aren't evil if they practice. People can be good and bad and has NOTHING to do with magick.
@@1233-h1 I know that I'm in the minority here, but I've never found Lucy funny. I don't deny her talent, esp in the few dramatic turns she had with films like Lured. But for humor, I'll take Lily Tomlin or Carol Brunett over Lucy. Everytime
@@waynej2608 I agree in the,sense that her comedic genius was that it worked because she had the ability to choose the right folks to bounce off of.
Funny in her own right. Absolutely not.
But throw in Vivian Vance, Ricki and Frawley she could shine brightly that way.
In all her interviews she came off as rather dull except with Johnny Carson.
Her physical comedy was all her own and she was master at that.
But you are right. Burnett and Tomlin are much better.😊
Gracie Allen was funniest of all, and adorable.
I literally used to skip school to watch the Turner Classic Movies channel and follow all the video old Hollywood gossip and never in my life have I heard the lesbian killed my boy fiancé story! I am unprepared for this! I needed popcorn!
I begged my mom one time to stay home from school(elementary) to watch "Bringing Up Baby" movie. So funny I can relate
Hollywood hated her says it all and made me interested in her. She wanted a private life and shunned gossip columnists a mistake in Hollywood. You'll probably find a lot of those actors had a dark past.
I'm quite obsessed with old Hollywood and love Noir, however, the industry is completely evil. Often employing very talented h00kers and rent boys and abusing them beyond belief.
I loved Lisabeth Scott. Her movies are mesmerising! The letter with the boyfriend was somewhat manipulative that he left her a fortune she didn't get, but takes nothing away from her talent.
I loved her also, 'Too late for tears,' a noir, being one of my favourites.
Yep. A highly underrated actress with a lot of class.
Lizabeth Scott was one of a kind. The fact she was the lead in almost all of her films except for three says a lot.
Too Late for Tears is one of my favorite movies but I wouldn’t call her a good actress. Her costar said she could have any part she wanted because she was married to the director.
@lanazak773 she was never married, maybe they meant in an intimate relationship with the director. And I agree, she wasn't a great actress...
@@evepeabody4738 she was not a lesbian. Bi ike many . Not a murderer either
@@evepeabody4738 Yes, thanks
One of the best bio on this woman! You filled in the blanks about Scott’s alleged lesbian interest I came away believing she made so many enemies that people leaked it knowing it was not true! I still say she personified the film noire fem fatale. I fell in love with her expressive fem fatale eyes!
Lucy showed them all in the end, she became a Billionaire with her own studio. 😂
Did you notice that this video said "Everybody loved Lucille Ball?" With her success, that changed. I don't know when she became less loveable, but certainly during I Love Lucy, she wasn't so nice - even to Vivian Vance. I saw a video not long ago, and she even treated Richard Burton and Elizabeth Taylor like underlings. Burton didn't like her.
She's beautiful, but I do actually get the feeling that she is wicked...
...or unhappy.
See _The Strange Love of Martha Ivers._ Scott _looks_ like a female Fatale, but the wicked one is Stanwyck.
Her description at the beginning for the negative traits is reminding me of Amber Heard 🤐 also your biographies are always a treat and so entertaining!
I love your voice as you tell the stories.
🫶🏽♥️♥️
Same here ❤
Very… noirish. ❤
Another actress who intrigues me is
Francis Farmer. The actress Jessica Lange did a biopic on her life called "Francis"...
Her story is so heartbreaking and goes to show just how Hollywood treated a woman who did not want to conform. She preferred the broadway stage over Hollywood. Unfortunately, her pushy over bearing mother took over her life. She pressured her to go back to Hollywood cause it was Mama ambition to go Hollywood. Francis wanted a simple life.
Her Mother became her guardian and had her institutionalized.
🤬 I still cannot stand her so-called Mother 'til this day. Frances suffered horrific abuse in that mental institution. Downright barbaric. Hard movie 2 watch also, but Jessica did her justice!
Any enemy of Kurt Douglas is a friend of mine! 😮😂😊
"Kurt?" I love it!
Yeah. A lot of nasty dirt is,coming out about him.
@@1233-h1 Well, let's not be curt about "Kurt."
Kirk (not Kurt) Douglas wasn't mentioned in this video.
@@appledoreman I think toddler meant Burt Lancaster.
You really have a true calling to tell these stories
The whole Hollywood industry was a huge, filthy decadent mess. They had everything nicely covered up with polish and glamour!
*was* ...? lol.
@@airmark02 fair point 😊
Hence, the term Pedowood.
So true. It’s always amazed me how many people will go lord knows what to “make it” in Hollywood. Sad really.😢
Great bio Karine!! Kudos to you, right up there with the beloved TCM late great Robert Osborne 😊❤
Hello lovely Karine!! I really enjoy your channel!! I’m of the age where I grew up on old black& white movies from Hollywood. Nothing against the movie stars of today, but I’m partial to the old Hollywood glam- and the sometimes dark side of that era. Thanks for your unbiased coverage of a lot of my favorite stars of yesterday. Have you ever thought of doing a video on Jose Ferrer? I’d love to hear your take on his life and career!! Thanks for all you do!! Sending love & blessings to you and your family!!😍😍😍🙏🙏🙏
Now THAT is a wild & juicy story! Wow.
Love your work. Thanks
@KarineAlourde, thank you for another fantastic video! You always introduce us with people I never knew existed. Keep up the good work!
My wife purchased several pieces of Scott’s glamorous wardrobe when her personal estate was auctioned off in Los Angeles. Her favorite Scott garment is a red and green plaid sequin jacket that my wife wears every Christmas. People always comment on the dazzling jacket which usually leads to a conversation about Lizabeth Scott, film noir, etc. We can only imagine the places where Scott would have worn such an amazing jacket and can only hope that glamour regains some of its popularity.
She's really beautiful in a natural way. A genuine blond too.
Sounds like she was a complete narcissist! Wow!
A lot of actors are, it's that sort of profession. Burt Lancaster was no saint!
MALIGNANT NARCOPATH
your vid is awesome. you bring the golden age of hollywood out from the cobwebs and give it new life..
Loved this unique beauty. Film Noir was famous because of her. What was up with Burt?
Thank you for your compassion towards those in the deep past and now who feel that they deserve the least empathy❤
In some of her photos she looks similar to Lauren Bacall. I also thought she looked a little bit like Grace Kelly in a couple photos.
Wow, Karine! This one I have never heard of! Crazy lady - if you'd call her that,for sure!!
It’s Amazing how you find these celebrities from way back - so interesting hearing their bios. She sort of reminds me Lauren Bacall. ❤
Thank you for your work Karine, it is very much appreciated.
Most of the glamour shots at the beginning are from Dead Reckoning with Humphrey Bogart which was her big chance to become the next Lauren Bacall
...and she was gorgeous in it!
Of course she didn't want her man to blab... She was busy being naughty, messing with married men and doing whatever to get a part. To me, that's a no. Its different if the woman had no clue the man was married but when they know and they don't care? I know today a lot of females seem to think that it's better to be a side chick but I'm older so I can't get behind that line of thinking. I do have to wonder, when she was sleeping her way to the top and taking other women's parts, would she appreciate it if it was done to her? Probably not. Can't stand hypocrisy either.
I agree with you 100 percent
Great job, it's amazing how much detail you always dig up/
They need to make a new movie about her life with all the juicy stuff.
One of my favorite classic actresses because of her haunting looks and rough voice. Her talent wasnt great but she worked it lol. Thank you Sis for another great synopsis 🎬🎥
First time here in Miss Scott, but she does look familiar in old movies used to watch. Thanks for all you give us watching
She is very photogenic. Especially her profile. What a shame she was a sociopath
But it isn't like everyone was screwing everyone during that period.....
Don't care " Hollywood hated her" I love Lizabeth Scott she was so hot and had that distinctive look
I really like your channel. One of my favorite iconic actresses is Carole Lombard. Her story is very interesting and I did notice that you hadn’t covered her story before. I wonder if you could uncover any other information about her that could develop into an interesting episode. Not only is she iconic but also a refreshing inspiration to the refined spiritual nature of some individuals. She literally bankrolled this country’s 🇺🇸 startup into WW2. A true American Heroine.
I like Lizabeth Scott, but I did not think was a beauty, I think she's attractive, but had a strong almost masculine look. As far as the movie Martha Ives she was good but could never steal a movie from Barbara Stanwyck. Even in the one scene they had together, Barbara being the queen thespian that she was, barely even acknowledge her in the scene, which made Liz look beneath her in the scene, Barbara hands down owned that movie
This is very true. Scott couldn't hold a candle to her. Nobody could.
I loved Stanwyck and in my opinion she was the BEST actress for years. She was also the highest paid for years. But she lived quite modestly.
look at her again. she was nobodies doll baby. she was a woman. quite a lot of men are afraid of a real woman and stick with kupie dolls.
maybe you should review our concept of beauty. yours is not the only one
@@1233-h1 By contrast, Stanwyck was rather gentle with the insecurities of a young Marilyn Monroe on 1952's "Clash By Night". Marilyn was a very different personality type, though.
I get the impression that Scott was Hollywood's attempt at creating the next Lauren Bacall. Similar looks, hair style, raspy-like voice.
or was she BEFORE Bacall?
@@liz-iy6zm No, Bacall made her film debut in '44, Scott arrived a year later.
I love learning someone new on your channel. These icons had some tea, and I enjoy sipping on 😅😅. I feel like her favorite color would be blue, red, yellow, or black
Isn't it ironic that everyone mentioned in this trash is dead and unable to confirm, deny or defend themselves?
70 years after Confidential Magazine scandalized her name, lo and behold here you are doing it again only worse.
She was a beautiful, sultry, talented actress sullied by the tabloids and hack writers. LEAVE HER ALONE.
Thank you!
You are right - I think she was ahead of her time, refusing to behave like other actresses were expected to. I always liked her, and as a young teen wore my hair exactly like her. Funny there is no one alive to confirm or deny this character assassination.
It reminds me of Bette Davis’ character in Dangerous with Franchot Tone 1935. She plays an alcoholic actress who left the stage thinking she was a jinx for her peers. I love Lizbeth Scott. Highly underrated actress who doesn’t seem to have been any different in her tactics to claw her way up to the top. I just watched a long like 6 separate reel interview with her. She really came across highly intelligent and with definite knowledge of how to manipulate the system and play the game. I say more power to her! She’s beautiful and warm and witty with a great capacity to laugh at herself and the hypocrisy of Hollywood then and now. ❤
TBH, I haven’t heard of her until now. Her story is interesting and I'm glad you do these not so famous actors/actresses.
She was very famous and a stalwart of film noir
@bambinoandmore46 As I said, I don't know her. I will be looking I to her movies tho.
I think she was just ruthless, and very private. An era where men expect a beautiful woman to be beautiful and obedient. Everyoen in Hollywood saw what Wallace did for her and maybe expected her to play the doting wife. She didn't. I think she really was a lot like her film noir personalities. I think she was just one of those people who had super bad trust issues, rarely feels lonely and rarely falls in love. I'm very similar and that freaks people out. Though I will admit whatever she did with Kurt Douglas...I'm guessing she must be super vain and super hard to please, no one has time for that.
She was in one of my favorite film noir movies, No Time for Tears. Amazing.
Well done. Always was curious about her story, and wondered why her persona gave off a strange vibe.
I could listen to you all night. You talk like it was office gossip. Thanks for posting. I';m subscribed.
the Golden Age of Hollywood also included cases and cases of Lysol for all the couches
Maybe they were mad that she skipped the casting couch and had Wallace as her top fruens!! 🤔
I don’t think Kirk Douglas has a right to comment on anyone else’s behaviour or what’s considered professional with his disgusting reputation
Exactly!
Especially after what he did to Natalie Wood.
@@barbj9785 I heard that was Frank Sinatra?
@@barbj9785 Frank Sinatra did something to her as well.
@@barbj9785 Frank had sex with Natalie when she was 15 years old.
She kinda gives me a very young Kristie Alley resemblance and Lauren Bacall...!!!❤
I don’t believe anything Bette Davis’ daughter said.
People are so uncool, so what she wanted her love life private. I think that is smart & understandable.
Fun Fact: Emma Matzo aka Lizbeth Scottt, rented a room from my father's family home in Dunmore PA, before she went to Hollywood )
Wow! Interesting! Any news?
She was beautiful and talented, but never fulfilled her potential. She was the queen of film noir. In Hollywood she was referred to as a "baritone babe" - euphemism for lesbian.
But she wasn’t a lesbian - her words not mine.
Interesting info on Scott, padded by a great deal of speculative hearsay. At any rate, thank you.
I am a fan of her movies I like her raspy voice & she has some masculine features or maybe because she comes across as a strong aggressive personality & for that time 30's &40's) it was found to be different. I am an old woman so I was taught that woman do not behave that way but secretly as a teenager I admired & wished I could be straightforward like her.
Oh my! That last 📸 photo was scary, Halloweenish looking!😮
I loved her in "The Strange Loves of Martha Ivers." She was a great beauty with a distinct, sultry voice. The epitome of the 1940s femme fatale. Nice to know that she was a friend to Michael Jackson. Thank you for this video.
What a nasty hit piece. So, not one person in her life said one good thing about her? Even though she was engaged several times and had numerous affairs with men, you call her a lesbian without siting any affair with another women. You even accuse her of murder without the death ever having been called a murder! She was a very close friend of Debbie Reynolds
Who was considered a nice person. And Debbie thought she was just fine. There is an 8 part interview of her at age 74 on You Tube. She was a perfectly delight, intelligent women.
I waited on Lizbeth Scott in the early 80’s when I used to work at a department store in the hosiery department.
She was a 10,gorgeously beautiful !!❤
Here's the truth about Lizabeth Scott - Lizabeth Scott's screen image goes hand-in-hand with Film Noir. Lizabeth Scott was always compared to Lauren Bacall since they shared some physical attributes and their voices were unusually deep for women. Both women had been tagged with an image moniker: Lauren Bacall was known as "The Look" and Lizabeth Scott was called "The Threat" which derived from a critic's description of Scott: "She's the Threat, to the Body, the Voice and the Look." "The Body" (Marie McDonald), "The Voice" (Frank Sinatra) and "The Look" (Lauren Bacall).
Lizabeth Virginia Scott was born as Emma Matzo on September 29, 1922 in Scranton, Pennsylvania. Lizabeth Scott, was disclaimed by the film critics as a second rate Lauren Bacall but though they do have similar qualities in my opinion they are quite different in their acting abilities. Lizabeth Scott's screen debut was in the film You Came Along (1945, Paramount Pictures) Scott had the starring role as Ivy "Hotcha" Hotchkiss, while the screenplay was written by conversational Ayn Rand and well directed by John Farrow. But it was her next film that she struck gold The Strange Love Of Martha Ivers (1946, Paramount Pictures) and it was her first entry into realm of Noir. Of all her films the one that she will be remembered for will be Too Late For Tears (1949, United Artists) here she plays Jane Palmer a femme fatale in every sense of expression here displaying a complete lack of conscience and empathy as she murders anyone who gets in her way. She was so convincing as the seductive, husky-voiced scheming who is pathologically unable to understand the enormity of her crimes. One of her first victims was her poor husband who didn't have a chance. Even the presence of Dan Duryea a noted Noir villain himself could not even save himself against Scott. Of her 22 films, she was the leading lady in all but one. In addition to stage and radio, she appeared on television from the late 1940s to early 1970s. As Film Noir became more and more popular so too has Lizabeth Scott she had been gaining a belated reputation as a superior actress. What set her apart from other film noir actresses was her unmannered projection of the now archaic tough girl which was direct and vibrant thus elevating it from the confines of its times. Scott's style of acting, characteristic of other film actors of the 1940s -- a cool, naturalistic underplay derived from multiple sources -- was often not appreciated by critics who preferred the more emphatic stage styles of the pre-film era or the later method acting styles. Unlike her predecessors at Paramount, Lizabeth Scott was not contracted to the studio but to the company's leading independent producer Hal B. Wallis, who, like David O. Selznick before him made a lucrative business of loaning out his contract players to other producers and studios with a substantial profit for himself.
When the breakdown of the studio's star system started in the early to mid-1950s this worked to Lizabeth Scott's disadvantage. Paramount was disinclined to promote a free-lance player who was so tenuously not a part of its set-up. Compounding her plight was her rebellious individuality and outspokeness. She had little use for the conventional homage usually paid to the establishment in the film industry, and rarely kowtowed to the ranking institutions, gossip columnists especially the two dragons of Hollywood: Louella Parsons and Hedda Hopper. With rare exceptions in films as Paid In Full (1950, Paramount Pictures) here as the good sister who sacrifices everything even her own life for her self-centered younger sister played with verve by Diana Lynn. Usually Lizabeth Scott was stereotyped on the screen as the corrupt chanteuse who had no desire or will to change her sinister ways. Meaning that Scott was doomed to find a worthwhile good guy to love her but only when it was too late and she had already passed the point of redemption. She worked best in tandem with such strong screen personalities as Burt Lancaster, Kirk Douglas and Charlton Heston. In 2003, film historian Bernard F. Dick interviewed Scott for his biography of Wallis. The results was an entire chapter titled "Morning Star." In the chapter, the author observed that during the interview, Scott (then 80 or 81 years old) was still able to recite her opening monologue word for word from the play "The Skin of Our Teeth", which she had learned six decades earlier. Lizabeth Scott died of congestive heart failure at the age of 92 on January 31, 2015.
All About Eve was supposed to take place with the actress Elizabeth Bergner not Lizabeth Scott get your facts right
Wow! She had a very long life.
You gave an excellent critique of her that gives a different slant to her.
She seems to have been her very own person who lived life on her terms and who refused to get swallowed up by the systems she encountered and worked within. Nor the expectations of convention.
She looked out for herself and had a kind of inner strength that is rare and intimidating. And she couldn't be completely controlled and manipulated.
She won mostly, lost occasionally and had many chapters in her book of life.
I love film noir and I'm going to watch a couple of her movies this weekend.
THANK you. Excellent reporting.😊👳♂️
Thanks for that information. I’m not saying the video is incorrect, but when I hear a woman from that era was Independent, strong, rebellious and outspoken, and then hear she was not liked, I have to question the info and rumors. I’ll do my own research before I accept any information from this video as fact.
Film Noirs; nothing like them..
The beautiful women, suspense, whodunit, an atmospheric implosion throughout just always hypontises the viewers
Mysterious is the right word!
Alot of catbiting of older/established actresses who grew jealous of Scotts upcoming screen aura..
Your videos are excellent and much appreciated in an era where others are using AI! Thank you. The AI videos mispronounce words and show pictures that are wrong! Yours are genuine and accurate. Thanks again.
Never seen or heard of her. She resembles Katherine Turner, Veronica Lake and Lauren Becall. Maybe she was a witch or practiced voodoo.
She is actually he.A transgender.🙋
She is actually he. All celebrities are transgenders.That' s the price of glory.🙋

She was the icon of fiom noir!
I absolutely love your channel and your videos too. So inspirational and sincere. I think Hollywood tends to make certain women if not all women in Hollywood like some toy or try to control and I feel like she wasn't going to just stand for in and everything. Her image was being tormented in the media because she wasn't going to let ts slide. It's kinda sounds similar to Marilyn Monroe. Another Gorgeous Actress that had a hard upbringing became successful and hollywood treated her like shit.
Bankhead preferred women as well. So did Stanwyck! What going on?!😂😂❤
I have a theory since men were just taking it most times, I assume they found more comfort with women 🤔😅

I think she was a he. Along with many others.
The movie All About Eve is *probably* based on her - that's speculation, not history.
That's what the lady said....that it was speculation.
I was a 1950's baby. I remember watching Lizabeth Scott in some of the old movies in black and white. I never liked Lizabeth Scott. I always felt there was just something about her that I found repulsive. I know it's a strong word, but I really got how Burt Lancaster felt. I was just a kid, but something about her really rubbed me the wrong way and it never changed. Finding out she was a scoundrel of a woman means the feelings I had about her, not her acting, but her, were spot on!
She was a he.
Karine Alourde , Your voice is Sublime. Your commentaries are so classy.
she were not lesbian that is a rumour she did not kil him.
I respect her for not putting her personal life all in the spotlight. A lot of actors and actresses who did that back then were kind of putting their personal lives out in a fake way so the fact that she didn't put herself out like that makes me respect her.
She did her own thing, with a mind of her own going her own way .. .
