Such a charming gentleman ,impeccable manners .He listens to the questions , answers thoughtfully and throws in plenty of self effacing humour .A great interview ,pity it is such a lost art these days.
I disagree. He was a dastardly obtuse character of high immorality and a temperate disposition. This interview was horrendously executed with flaws at every given interpretation. However, I digress. Good day Sir.
when i was a kid in England i always had Vincent Price on top of my list of favourite Horror Actors. He's just so damn interesting. And his voice is amazing.
Auw, bless this beautiful angel, lovely wonderful Vincent price, what's a lovely person he was, not to mention a brilliant outstanding actor.😊 We all miss and love you Vincent price, the world is not the same with out you in it. Much love to you from me, 💗💗💗 rest in peace lovely man. ❤
Me too!! Love, appreciate, respect unlike any other!! I Soo miss him Lee and Cushing! Endearing, highly educated, compassionate men! Price and I have interests in common. You accomplished much; what a great run! We are poorer will out you!!! RIP Sir!!!!!!
He speaks with a sort of casual intelligence about art. This is not something one can fabricate. When you are very well acquainted with a subject you can talk with verve, precision and genuine insights. He displays no affectation, pomposity or pretentious attitudes to art. He is is at ease with himself good humoured and would be a superb dinner companion.
So cozy interview) like they somewhere in home... It's amazing everytime for me how Vincent always looked younger his actual age... Here's he 63 but look's like 53 😄 It's extraordinary how he's always alive and calm, and truly interested in everything he talks about and just authentic man with so deep insightful eyes... Yeah, wish were more man like him in the world...
I found out Vincent Price with Corman's movies when I was a young kid and I immediately loved him and those kind of movies, but just now, by watching these old interviews I realise that he's one of the very few celebrities that make me wanna be a close friend of his.
"Art is nothing more than the visual report of the time in which it's done." Such a brilliant insight so elegantly phrased. If PBS had elected to do an art documentary show (even a miniseries) about art with Price as the host, people would still be watching it today, like they watch Bob Ross paint
to me, he will always be the prosecutor of the emperor, in the wonderful film Song of Bernadette with Jennifer Jones of 1943. I love him, I hope he is in heaven !
His interviews are always funny and fascinating. I hope someone posts the talk show appearance where he got into an argument with Fredric Wertham about horror movies. I did not know he no formal acting training! He was such a natural at it. Great at serious and comedy roles. His voice is so good for drama and humor.
My Father after retiring from 21 years as a Navy SeaBee worked full time managing a paint & hardware store called Standard Brands in Oxnard, CA. Vincent Price retired to a house on the beach there and would often come in and talk with my Dad about things he needed to fix up the house. Dad said he was a very humble and appreciative guy.
To echo what others have already written Vincent Prince is a remarkably articulate, accomplished and charming man. Though I knew he was an art collector I did not know he was educated at Yale University and the Courtauld Institute in London. James Day's inteviewing style, asking broad questions and giving his guest the latitude to answer them. is just how an interview should be done.
Total class act. I worked as a studio singer for 40 years, 6 of those being on the Red Skelton Show. One time when Vincent Price was the featured guest, I took my copy of A Treasury of Great Recipes for him to autograph and he was most gracious. He write Fir Diana, Love, Luck and Bob Appetit! Mary and Vincent Price. I absolutely cherish that!
I got introduced to Vincent Price through the creature double feature on TV38 WSBK in Boston. And what a wonderful actor. Who brought Edgar Allen Poe's work out. His movies are more mystery than horror. And friends with some great guys. Like Alice Cooper and Deep Purple. And now my grandkids are loving his work.
He was such a learned man. A creative and quite the visionary. He knew Shakespeare and one of his closest friends was Sir Christopher Lee who portrayed Dracula. Yes he was bisexual but that's irrelevant about him as an individual as a whole. He was quite the gentleman very well spoken and great articulation. Miss you Vincent.
I have a crush on him now and he is no longer here! His acting and his personality are just unbelievable! I have so much respect for him! I just love his movies! He was a true gentleman!
Got to be the 1st time I've ever seen him smoke. I never knew he did..he almost chained smoke, classily of course. Such a handsome, higly educated, talented, rascally gentleman...don't even get me started on the voice! This calibre of a man does not exists anymore.
I'm 32. Growing up in the 1990s I fell in love with old horror films from the 50s, 60s and 70s and loved Vincent Price, Peter Cushing, Christopher Lee and Donald Pleasence
A scholar and a gentleman. For us here in crusty ol' Europe it always makes us chuckle to ourselves when we see our American cousins debating about Mr Price's "trans-Atlantic" accent. To put it as politely as possible... Vincent was one of the few AMERICAN actors who could actually speak the English Language correctly. Add to that a talented artist, a sophisticated locutor and a critical thinker based in a strong historical background... Well, what do you get?... Something you feel you have to call "trans-Atlantic" because it is so foreign to the standard US education. Vincent very much had the British approach to performing on stage... from the outside in. A smart man. It is a shame that half of the US think that being "intellectual" equates to being weak or unmasculine. Those gun-toting ignorami should consider the fact that the US, as it stands, only stands thanks to its great thinkers.
Well said. His accent was unusual but sounded natural, unlike the odd sounding Gor Vidal who sounded as if he was affecting a British type accent it sounded phoney.
I have to take exception to your pidgeon-holing of the Americaan mentality and attitude towards intellectualism. We are all not knuckle-draggers just as Europeans are all not peasants. Cheers
Probably both, my eyes are considered blue but most days look gray. Which is funny because he is my great great great uncle and share a lot of the same interests and traits. I didn't know it until I read this comment that we had/have the same color eyes. I don't see a lot of ppl with gray eyes like mine/ours lol
Such a charming gentleman ,impeccable manners .He listens to the questions , answers thoughtfully and throws in plenty of self effacing humour .A great interview ,pity it is such a lost art these days.
James Day asked some really good and insightful questions. Interviewing skills is a lost "art" itself these days.
I disagree. He was a dastardly obtuse character of high immorality and a temperate disposition. This interview was horrendously executed with flaws at every given interpretation. However, I digress. Good day Sir.
@@ReginaldForman obtuse ? He studied at Yale
@@ReginaldForman you are either a troll or willfully delusional. Either way- you have no clue what you’re talking about in the slight st.
You seem so envious so bitter
You just don't see people like Vincent Price anymore. Very nice interview.
Amen
Faaaaalse. I saw some earlier today. You must abandon retreat at least once in a great while kind Sir.
@@ReginaldForman
You are just a Generic, who could never appreciate what he was. DA.
@@jonniereynolds7915 It was a quote from one of his movies.
thanks
Vincent Price is a national treasure.
He always was a charming and talented fellow.
A well spoken, highly educated actor. Not exactly commonplace these days!
One of my favourite people ever! I grew up watching and loving his movies so much. Such an erudite, charming, intelligent gentleman.
Wonderful! what a real education can do for someone.

I could listen to Vincent talk all day! Such a brilliant man who lived life to its fullest. I love him so much.
Totally Agree

Could listen to his voice forever.
Me too it puts me to sleep ^^
I love Vincent Price for his sense of humor most of all. He always makes me laugh no matter what hes in.
I love his dark comedy. Especially when Peter Lory was involved. Pardon my spelling. I'm over fifty and struggling with spell check.:)
Vincent makes you feel so relaxed listening to him .
Could listen to Vincent speak all day long,seemed like a lovely man.
Vincent was a gem. A classic gentleman, great body of work, and obviously a sly sense of humor. I would've liked to have broken bread with him.
Such a rare sight today ,someone of this caliber.
Love Vincent Price! 😊
OMG he was so gorgeous!
A true original 🌹
What a privilege that we have platforms like RUclips to check out these interviews with all the greats.
There will never be another like Vincent Price! Great interview ❤
The great Vincent Price.
He listens so critically… the minute the interviewer starts talking he’s all ears. Even while mid sentence.
A life lived to the fullest Mr. Price!!! You are FOREVER LOVED and RESPECTED!!! Thank you for your gifts to us all!! RIP Sir!! ❤️
One of my favourite actors. Unique and a one off👌
A multi talented man and very fun! 🎥❤
He had SUCH a GREAT Sense of Humor and a GREAT Laugh! A TRUE Treasure!
One of my favorite actors in the horror genre. All time great!
This is priceless, no joke.
Oh, thank you for this wonderful insight into a wholly erudite, charming human being. Magnificent.

Nice to know that he really did have such a deep voice!!!!
Absolutely a one of kind actor.
I just love him.😊
Wonderful interview.
My god the world would be a wonderful place to live in if everyone was like Vincent price.😊
He is right, there is nothing like a trip to Europe. The art is just overwhelming

2 words Pure Class
Great interview.
Vincent Price was Classy man and a great actor. ☺️🙌
Such a classy and handsome man. I have always admired Mr. Vincent Price.
Very interesting interview. A new side of Price. Loved it.
Excellent interview, intelligent questions and thoughtful, charming answers. Thank you.
He seems like a guy I would like to have tea with and chat about art and drama. R.I.P.
The legend🧟♂thanks for posting this
What a joy, and jovial great person Sir Vincent Sir is, yay! He keeps us happy, Class. What a joyous guy😊👍🔒🔐
Thanks for sharing.
to me, he will always be the prosecutor of the emperor, in the wonderful film Song of Bernadette with Jennifer Jones of 1943. I love him, I hope he is in heaven !
One of the reasons why I still want to do professional acting and why I wrote poetry; and short stories. His work was unmatched.
One of a kind, Price was a true renaissance man. I grew up on his horror films and have loved his work ever since.
Hands down, IMO, Vincent Price the GREATEST of All time!
His interviews are always funny and fascinating. I hope someone posts the talk show appearance where he got into an argument with Fredric Wertham about horror movies. I did not know he no formal acting training! He was such a natural at it. Great at serious and comedy roles. His voice is so good for drama and humor.
An amazing actor and a true gentleman. I was lucky enough to have met him when he was on a lecture tour 40 years ago.
He was great. So sad we have to get old and die.
wow. this is great
GIVE THEM TO THE PUBLIC
Vincent price you you are magnificent
he's not on youtube, checking messages
@@corrado oh is he dead?
PRICELESS !
Always a pleasure.

Well spoken, with a exquisite voice 😊. A favorite actor of mine. 😊
excellent interview
Mr price would have made a wonderful Vilan a JAMES BOND MOVIE. I've always considered him a GREAT actor ..RIP

Legend.
Interesting hearing that he had no formal training as an actor, you'd never know it when he's acting everyone else off the screen!
He was so wonderful in "His Kind of Woman". Would have loved to have worked with him.
He was such a learned man. A creative and quite the visionary. He knew Shakespeare and one of his closest friends was Sir Christopher Lee who portrayed Dracula. Yes he was bisexual but that's irrelevant about him as an individual as a whole. He was quite the gentleman very well spoken and great articulation. Miss you Vincent.
crazy but I sorta crushed on him as a little girl in the 90's
I crushed on Vincent Price too, from late 1973 to mid-1978, when I was in my 20s.
It was the movie Dragonwyck, My mother was a big fan and I guess I learned from her, I was in my teen years. He was awesome.
I still have a crush on him.
Everytime I hear his voice there is a tingling in my stomach. It started when I first heard him talk long time ago and it never stopped to happen.
I have a crush on him now and he is no longer here! His acting and his personality are just unbelievable! I have so much respect for him! I just love his movies! He was a true gentleman!
He was so handsome to me.
Got to be the 1st time I've ever seen him smoke. I never knew he did..he almost chained smoke, classily of course. Such a handsome, higly educated, talented, rascally gentleman...don't even get me started on the voice! This calibre of a man does not exists anymore.
Vincent Price was and is amazing. Love his work with Alice Cooper amongst many other things he did over his long and brilliant career.
PERFECT.
Anyone a fan of Scooby-Doo?, My boi Vince Van Ghoul
A true Renaissance Man. V classy individual.
I would've loved to see his lecture on villains
Vincent Price's daughter said her father bought a Jackson Pollock for 50 dollars. He purchased work from many great artists, early in their careers.
Legend❤️
I live in the wrong era.
I don’t think it would be allowed to smoke on tv today.
Am I the only person in my 20s watching videos like this?
stop making us feel old
I'm only 40 but just discovered him, feel head over crazy about him. Even got a major tattoo:)
I was head over crazy about him back in the 1970s too, and I'm still a fan of his, though I shouldn't be gloating about it.
Not true!!!! Ive been watching him my whole life n I'm younger too
I'm 32. Growing up in the 1990s I fell in love with old horror films from the 50s, 60s and 70s and loved Vincent Price, Peter Cushing, Christopher Lee and Donald Pleasence
As a child, this man’s pure presence could scare the hell outta me. And yet, he’s nothing like he is in his movies.
He Was charisma in and out the screen
What year was this Vincent rocks
Such a class act
Икона! Недосягаемое мастерство
its like Peter Cushing and Christopher Lee, They look creepy, but are nice sincere people.
Vincent Price b. 27 May 1911
Christopher Lee b. 27 May 1922
Peter Cushing b. 26 May 1913
All 3 of them were well known to be nice , classy, gentlemen! ☺️
You can see he was a very intelligent man.

What is the actual color of Vincent Price's eyes? They look blue in some shows, gray in others.
Probably both, my eyes are considered blue but most days look gray. Which is funny because he is my great great great uncle and share a lot of the same interests and traits. I didn't know it until I read this comment that we had/have the same color eyes. I don't see a lot of ppl with gray eyes like mine/ours lol
Vincent Price, A Cultural Treasure Chest.RIP.
