Vincent Price, Peter Cushing, Christopher Lee, Boris Karloff..we'll never see actors like that again. Thank goodness they left us the movies that they did. 😊
I like how, in the interview, Vincent Price turns and looks at Wifred Hyde-White and by directing his replies toward him he includes Hyde-White in the conversation. Such a gentleman. I think Michael Parkinson described Vincent Price as the most sophisticated man he ever met. Christopher Lee said that Vincent Price knew everything about everything (but I'm sure he meant it in a complimentary way) and was "a grand master as a human being".
Vincent Price was, is, and will forever be, among the world's all time great stars. Talk about style - he had it in spades, and he's right true style is totally unique to an individual. It's a powerful kind of charisma possessed and generated by rare and special people. Look how at ease he was as himself. No wonder he was a TV chat show favourite from the 'sixties to the 'eighties, he was utterly irresistible and held audience and host spellbound, whatever he was discussing.
Born 1945 in Southern California. I had the privilege of watching many wonderful movies and TV programs and actually running into the actors who played in those films and TV series from time to time. Spent an entire day at Warner Bros Studios in 1975.
What year was this interview? The 'Dr Death' movie he referenced (with a Parkinson cameo), actually called 'Madhouse', was released 1974, so this was obviously later.
Vincent Leonard Price, Jr. (San Luis, Misuri; 27 de mayo de 1911-Los Ángeles, California; 25 de octubre de 1993) fue un actor de cine estadounidense, conocido principalmente por las películas de terror de bajo presupuesto en las que trabajó durante la última etapa de su carrera.
He was a kind man and so he did not say "You either have it or not", but I wonder what he would do if he shared the interview with one of today's stars. Probably bite them somewhere else.
Often impressions are more about catching the essence of the subject m more than being a perfect mimic. (Phil Hartman's Clinton being a great example), but his Alan Alda is uncanny

I adore Vincent Price - such a wonderfully witty, intelligent man.
What a lovely man
Price was such a gem. He had a great wit and charm. He makes most actors today look cheap, trashy and totally without style. Love him ❤❤❤
Totally agree, VP was a wonderful one-off!

It’s not the actors that are a problem. Many of them are still great. It’s social media and everything knowing everything that spoils the atmosphere.
Donald Pleasence I would add to that list

It used to be James Stewart, but I think Price might be taking that mantel of being my fave actor. He was a very funny and charming man.
Me too
Lovely man Vincent Price, great voice and personality.

intelligent, talented, witty, top of his game in so many areas just great.
I love "The Raven" it's so wonderful Hammy.
Wow, Wilfrid Hyde-White is sitting next to him! Also a great actor!
thanks for this!!!
Oh Vince, you old scamp!
Delicate humour
awesome
Madhouse (Dr Death) in my opinion is one of Vincent's best movies.

This was from 1976 according to the BBC archive

Master of horror
Master of so many things; Art, acting, cooking and just being a gentleman.
