avery taylor. ı get what you are saying but this is pretty bad too. you don't just make conversation when you have a guest like Tennessee Williams. what a waste.
I enjoyed watching Dick Cavett chat with Tennessee William's obsession with the brass bed, etc. Dick Cavett always seemed to make his guests feel comfortable.
I love Dick Cavett for bringing Tenesee WIlliams to me...who I never heard before. I watch Dicks interviews with interesting people on you tube. For some reason Verizon Fios took the channel that had dick on off....and court TV...bad moves Verizon Fios.
“Has it ever struck you that life is all memory, except for the one present moment that goes by you so quick you hardly catch it going?”― Tennessee Williams.......................
Dick Cavett really did interviewed with some of the most iconic and influential people of the 20th century. Could you believe it? _Tennessee Williams_ , He's up there along with two other greatest American playwrights of that century - _Eugene O'Neill_ and _Arthur Miller._ I kind of consider these interviews as modern historical artefacts.
"His brother Dakin Williams arranged for him to be buried at Calvary Cemetery in St. Louis, Missouri, where his mother is buried" Too bad his wishes were not respected
It's sad that he didn't get to be buried at sea, but was in fact buried under the religion he just said he didn't believe in and is now resting in St. Louis.
@@Powertuber1000 That's cool! I've been there a few times and had NO idea. Even if he isn't happy at least it's a cool fact for people that live in the Midwest.
how wonderful...for someone to have lived with that court yard as part of their life....no one takes the time to appreciate such a thing anymore.......every loss just makes life worse.....
@@kingy002 It seems that with too many people, their first instinct is to be didactic. They don't think before speaking or typing, they create a strawman or a fictitious scenario and sermonize about it as if they were an authority.
I visited a museum in NOLA, and the highlight was a section that stated "There really was a street car named 'Desire'" and displayed photographs of said streetcar in use, in addition to biographical info on Williams.
I love his accent, is it affected or a true southern accent, i suppose that accent is lessened nowadays. He was a rare bird. He lived to be 71 despite severe alcoholism.
have nothing against the other celebs that were on this show but is this channel ever going to show the Dick Cavett shows where he interviews Jackie Gleason or Art Carney? How about any Honeymooners actors that were part of the main cast? These are rarities much like the other ones.

2:12, Sounded like he said, "Sex and the city,'' like the show. What a strange, but yet interesting man this was. I discovered him through a caricature character of him through watching the show King of The Hill on June 16th, 2022, at around 6:07AM, which was precisely the time that I wrote this comment as well, yes. Have a wonderful day, and a happy life, my dear.
Dick Cavett, who has conducted some fine interviews (like K. Hepburn) was certainly not up to par here. Cavett might as well have been talking with his Aunt Tillie or someone--rather than America's master playwright. He certainly didn't do any homework. Oh well, I'm glad Tennessee looked good and seemed to enjoy himself.
I disagree respectfully, I thoroughly enjoyed this conversation. and it's incisive entertaining conversational easy going style ,that Mr.Cavett,deploys, he allows the playwright to be open and candid and relaxed enough to reveal sides of his character and personality,in.a free flowing manner. Hands down he remains the interviewer, that can carefully and entertainingly, make a interview informative and entertaining. He had,and still, doesn't have peers of his caliber.I Im only happy to have seen, heard and appreciated the rarified artistry that Mr.Cavett has done to enrich a few moments of our time, in a most satisfying way. A true artist and raconteur. 🙏🇺🇸📺🎤🏆
@@user-bx9dd7bd2t I too am an admirer of Dick Cavett. It's just that I'm a much greater admirer of Tennessee Williams, and would liked to have heard more from him about his art. But there are time limitations; I guess they both did the best the could under the circumstances. By the way, I hope you've seen the long interview Cavett did with K. Hepburn. He worshiped her, and it may be his finest interview. She was brilliant and witty and funny. It's in two parts, both done in 1973.
He is sober compared to some interview he did. One with Studs Terkel, Tennessee gets drunker and drunker, you can hear the ice in the glass and the pour. By the end he was too slurred to continue.
Can you believe conversations like this used to happen?! Now we have Jimmy Fallon 🥺
Fallon, Letterman, Kimmel, Ferguson, Winfrey, DeGeneres....they are all the same sadly.

Dick Cavett was the best, still alive i think. His interviews are a treasure.

@@kingy002 at least Ferguson is funny

Love to be his friend in another world...
Tennessee is engaging without even trying. It's as easy for him as drinking a cup of water.

Tennessee sorta sounds like a southern Bob Dylan
He just wants to lay on his big brass bed.
But Tennessee isnt a fraud.

The Gore Vidal/Norman Mailer interview/slugfest was epic!
I totally agree

"His brother Dakin Williams arranged for him to be buried at Calvary Cemetery in St. Louis, Missouri, where his mother is buried"
Too bad his wishes were not respected
My favorite playwright. The man wrote beautifully.
Until the booze destroyed his talent.
The Glass Menagerie can still leave me shaken (the stage).
@@kelman727 did he not drink throughout all his writings? or when did he start really boozing?
@@CuckLordSinbad "Write Drunk and Edit Sober." forgot about the author's name who quote that. Was it Hemingway?
what a fantastic voice
Marlon Brando copied it
I believe the pirate that Cavett was referring to was Dominique You (1775-1830.)
It's sad that he didn't get to be buried at sea, but was in fact buried under the religion he just said he didn't believe in and is now resting in St. Louis.
Which cemetery in St Louis?
@@Powertuber1000 It's the Calvary Cemetery in St. Louis

But then people wouldn't be able to visit his grave.
Dick has had amazing interviews with th most iconic people of the XX century.
Truly
isabel nunes. this definitely isn't one of them.

"no one takes the time to appreciate such a thing anymore". What a bizarre comment.

I’ve seen a pic of the street car on RUclips with the name Desire on it. Not sure where . I think it was a video in Tennessee Williams.

That's the New Orleans I'd like to visit.
j m sorry. Katrina took that away. Gentrification has also obliterated that city. Progress, a sometimes awful concept.
It’ still exists. Come see us.
@@trishachamberlain5692 Its funny how these disasters often result in new building projects.... wars too.
"You said you had comes to terms with death...What did that for you?". The perfect question from the perfect interviewer.

IT CERTAINLY WAS AND SO WAS HE.
Too much Cavett, not enough Tennessee.
@michelle/ twas always the case. He just can't stop editorializing.
This has to be where Seth Macfarlane got the voice for Stewie
How could Tennessee Williams not have known about Delphine Lalaurie's house on Royal?
Nothing in this interview indicating William's obsession w/ death. What claptrap these titles are.
Long live democratic socialism and freedom
Freak.
Why people focus on life when we're dead for an eternity is beyond me.
Wow! I thought I was the only one who felt that way.
Frankincensed I AGREE BUT FEAR OF THE UNKNOWN CAN TRIGGER SUCH AN INFINITE INSECURITY
Out of sight, out of mind. Some people only see to the end of the visible. God is good.

So what did Tennessee?

The same thing that Arkansas.

i thought he saw a William...........
My question is, what did Delaware to the game?
I heard it was a New Jersey.
Ha ha. That's pretty good. I hadn't heard that one before.
WHAT A DAMN LEGEND!!!!! BUT I SWEAR IN MY 17 YEARS ALIVE I DONT THINK IVE EVER SEEN A MORE DRUNK MAN IN MY LIFE HAHAHAHA!!!!!!!!!!!
I don't think Tennessee was drunk here. I think he was bored with Cavett's lackluster questions. I was.
Jesus christ....you obviously haven't seen many drunk people then 🙄
