  • He Utterly Hated Steve McQueen, Now We Know the Reason Why.
    Steve McQueen, often called the 'King of Cool,' left an indelible mark on Hollywood in the 1960s and 1970s. Known for his captivating on-screen presence and memorable anti-hero roles in films like 'Bullitt' and 'The Great Escape,' McQueen became a cinematic legend. However, beyond the glamour of Hollywood, his intense personality and a strong desire for screen dominance sparked tense rivalries with some fellow actors.

    Steve McQueen NEVER worked with Michale Fassbender, Steve died in 1980. The McQueen who worked with MF is a black Director famous for many movies.
    Also get rid of the AI voice for petes sake… it’s terrible!!

      He had a troubled youth with a violent father. Acting out he stole hubcaps along with other issues. He was sent to a special farm for wayward boys near Chino California. The farm was founded in 1907 by a juvenile court judge and some Pasadena citizens and is legally a township with resident elected officials. It's purpose is to give troubled boys a wholesome chance to create new lives. McQueen was sent there to create a life for himself. He wasn't ready and eventually ran away. Years later he tried to aid the new crop of residents by bussing the entire resident body to the Hollywood premier of his movie THE REIVERS. After a few more efforts the residents expressed concern that they were being used by McQueen. I worked there for several years as a young man. On one Sunday an older man visited the farm to look around. I spoke with him for some time. He had completed his civilian and military careers and wanted to visit the farm which had given him a needed chance. His memory was sharp and among his details was a brief mention of a young and bearded Catholic priest who had lived there for six months and then left for the Midwest somewhere. Amazed I asked him if the priest's name was Flannigan. He thought a moment and confirmed the name. He finished his tour and left. Flannigan moved to Omaha and replicated in detail the Boys Republic experience and renamed it BOYS TOWN. It became famous due to two Hollywood movies. Both Boys Republic and it's imitation Boys Town are doing well.

According to a cast witness Stan (Reginald Varney).Tempers become so frayed between McQueen and Mullard, that If it weren't for the calming intervention of Blakey (Seven Lewis) the whole production would have been shut down.

    James Garner is one of the most natural, and naturally effortless, actors I have ever seen. Steve McQueen had great stage presence, and genuine cowhand skills, but he was both ambitious and insecure. He felt threatened by charismatic leading men like Yul Brynner and James Garner, and always sought to upstage them. In "The Great Escape", John Sturges finally mollified McQueen about the perceived threat of Garner by asserting that in being solo in many of his scenes, McQueen would own the audience - and own the movie.

I was location scouting for a department store wanting to photograph a catalog at a house on the beach. I was driving all over Malibu and found myself on a quiet empty seaside street and saw two guys working on motorcycle in the driveway next to the road. The older guy had a bushy beard and the other guy was younger. I asked them if they knew any houses around there we could use for a location. The older guy said "nope" and I drove on eventually found a beach house thru a realtor. Months later i saw a picture of Steve McQueen with a beard in a magazine and realized that was the guy who had said "nope"..

Yul Brenner was a very self absorbed strange bird indeed.... and the movies I WOULD sit down to watch that he was in just never did impress me at all.... Never did GET the whooptee doo over him and his acting.... To ME, Burt Lancaster, Paul Newman, Gregory Peck, Sean Connery, I could keep going, but there were MANY actors that were better in my book...... The best thing he did as far as I am concerned was the movie West World.... and he didn't really have to act in THAT either.....

      They were both short men, so Steve wasn't intimidated; he used to insist on having a box to stand on when in scenes with taller actors, such as Newman. His strong arming can be attributed to 'short man syndrome.' He felt he would be diminished by bigger actors. Also the fact he grew up in a boys orphanage may have had given him the feeling of an inferiority complex.

A drive that overcame every emotion in-order to perhaps selfishly get the character that he portrayed to maximum effect a genius at the expense of others . That is a human nature aspect we all possess but few have the desire or ability to implement to such a high degree I guess in his personal life he was much the same after all he had a hard and tumultuous start in life like many of us which shapes our desire to succeed above others. He has given us all so much in his film legacy to be very grateful for .Ash

    ......It's so easy looking back in hindsight to single Steve McQueen out from the rest of these Hollywood Icons as somehow being egotistical or self-centered, but the truth is that none of these actors were good little angels. Unfortunately, actors upstaging one another has been a long-standing tradition in the performing arts. Steve McQueen had a very difficult childhood. He was basically neglected and arguably abandoned by his mother and became a troubled teenager who grew up in an orphanage.
    ......when he eventually decided to embark in the acting profession, he knew that he wasn't going to get anywhere by standing back and becoming a wall flower. Hollwood is full of hungry and aggressive actors, and he knew that if he were to succeed, that he would have to fully assert himself and fight for any and all opportunities he could gain. His genuine struggle to fight and succeed in Hollywood is really not all that different than most of his contemporaries.

    • @AndreaKollo

      In fact Paul Newman and James Garner were upstanding gentlemen loved by all in the industry. They knew their own worth and were married to their wives for almost 50 yrs Garner 50+ I believe. He was dirt poor and had a terrible home life, but he did learn discipline when he served in the military and received commendations. So you know not of what you speak. Should have to tear people down by suggesting they are as questionable as the person you are trying to defend.

    • @MrBarrystuart
      @MrBarrystuart 5 месяцев назад +1

      Unfortunately, like so many people today, you completely mischaracterize everything. No one here is suggesting that these aren't all honorable men, including Steve McQueen himself. Just because someone is married for 50 years doesn't automatically make them a saint, nor do the indiscretions on the part of Steve McQueen or anyone else for that matter automatically make him a terrible person. As a film buff, I have always admired all of these actors. My remarks were only designed to add some context to the presentation, which seemed a little tilted to one side in my view. You should really consider trying your hand at politics - those folks like to mischaracterize things too.

    • @AndreaKollo
      @AndreaKollo 5 месяцев назад

      As most have acknowledged, the presentation powered by AI it seems is highly questionable regarding facts! However, based on that information you decided you needed to add context as you say - perhaps you needs to consider that it was not well presented and while doing that, you in effect dissed the other actors even when as a movie buff you should know that what is being presented, for the most part is wrong! Don’t appreciate your patronizing and arrogant opening sentence either!

    • @MrBarrystuart
      @MrBarrystuart 5 месяцев назад +1

      I'm glad that you at least agree with me that the presentation was less than accurate and made some pretty glaring biographical mistakes. Moreover, I believe they were a little too heavy handed in vilifying Steve McQueen. Don't get me wrong, I'm sure he was quite often a very difficult person to work with, and sometimes pushy too - it's just that I don't believe he was all that different in that regard from many of his contemporaries. Hollywood has a dark list of some very difficult and jaded people, but I don't believe that he would rate anywhere near the top half of that list - despite what the video might suggest.
      Consequently, if you look at my original post, I refer to the actors from this era as Hollywood Icons, which is clearly a term of endearment on my part. I admire all of these men, they're my childhood hero's. Just because I suggest that they're not all good little angels is not the same thing as disrespecting them - everyone has their own little foibles and misgivings from time to time, especially in a highly competitive world such as acting. No offense, but I believe that you have willfully mischaracterized my words and overstated their meaning. Most people who are discerning enough and introspective enough can understand the difference - I'm sorry that you're having such a difficult time with it all.

He evidently was placated when in the opening credits, Paul Newman was listed first, but McQueen's credit, given aside it, was positioned higher than Newman's!
