OOF, Yul Brynner is just magnetic. That mellifluous voice, that accent, the gentility and manners, the charm, the true humility and kindness! I need to go take some deep breaths.
What a rags to riches story. Yul Brynner came to this country knowing only a handful of English words. His looks, charisma, voice, desire to succeed, and talent carried him far on screen and stage. His portrayal of Ramses II was mesmerizing. Truly the American Dream come true. Superb interviewer.
There will never be another King like Yul Brynner you are loved and missed dearly. I saw it many many years ago with Yul in it and was the third generation of my family to see it.
One of the giants of the movie screen. Such a charismatic figure who exudes masterful authority and conviction with every role. I could listen to Mr.Brynner for hours.
Did you know his French was totally native, even better than what you can hear today in France's media, he spoke so condidently with a hint of accent and refined phrases, this man had stunning talent
What two lovely actors they are,Yul Brynner a respectful gentleman and Virginia Mckenna a fantastic actress and Lady who seemed humbled and glad to get the Difficult part of Mrs Anna.😊❤
I saw the King and I at the Palladium in London in 1979, I was 12 at the time and I must say that Yul Brynner had an incredible presence on stage that even a 12 year old could notice. It was 1 of my best experiences
Virginia is so so beautiful and very gracious and soeaks so eloquently. She makes a perfect Mrs Anna, a very classy lady indeed. Yul is handsome and perfect as king.
What is the obsession with yul's head shaven? He is stunning with his head shaven. The King and I is my most favourite musical because I was hypnotised by Yul comfort of playing the king.
Yul shaved his head for this role at a time when bald heads were just...unfashionable. Losing hair was unmanly. So to proudly have it shaved, brazen, yet still put off a vibe that today is called "big dick energy" was crazy and intriguing
How I wish I'd seen this live. First time I saw on TV as a kid,not knowing the story. It was in 2 parts & for some reason I never saw the 2nd part. When I finally did,oh I cried! I never expected it Some actors own a role like none other. Mr Brynner was,as his character said..."the King he was born to be"
Mention the name Mr Yul Brynner and you instantly connect the GREAT Hollywood Superstar as the King of Siam in the movie and stage production of The King and I one of my favourite musicals of all time. Mr Yul Brynner with a strong voice of command once you see him you are already in awe of his presence immediately. Some actors are born to play certain roles and Mr Yul Brynner was meant to play The King of Siam. The SO lovely so down to earth now OBE Virginia McKenna was SO perfect for the role as Anna. SUPER show and SUPER interview. 😃
I love the fact that he augments his height with very high heels on his shoes and sandals. (6:43). He broke his back in 1958 and lost some of his 5' 8" which caused him to look way up to his costars which was sometimes an issue apparently. Height or hair? Who needs it in his case.
Great interview , however when Virginia McKenna says she auditioned for Richard Rodgers in New York and 'Mr Hammerstein' she is stating that she either auditioned for Jamie (James Hammerstein) or Bill (William) Hammerstein I'm not sure which, as the author/lyricist Oscar Hammerstein had died 19 years before in 1960.
Yuk Brynner was born July 1920 (some interviews he claimed 1925?) Based on him saying he is 58 years old during this clip it would be 1978. After his death in October 1985, an Ad aired of him speaking out against cigarettes. He quit too late, sadly smoking caused him Cancer.
@@FightCollective The production of this musical opened in the West End, at the London Palladium in 1979. For her role Virginia McKenna had got an Olivier award. So it must be before that but after 1976 when musical started touring States.
@@rogerchoate8899 No one in media knew his correct age. According to what I've read, he didn't give his correct year of birth nor age. If I had to guest, I'd say he's older than 58 in this clip as he claim. Either that or he has started suffering with lung cancer. Still a beautiful man.
OOF, Yul Brynner is just magnetic. That mellifluous voice, that accent, the gentility and manners, the charm, the true humility and kindness! I need to go take some deep breaths.
Il est renversant!!!
I couldn't agree more!
I saw the show in London in 1980. Brynner was & always will be THE KING. He was amazing & magnetic.
What a rags to riches story. Yul Brynner came to this country knowing only a handful of English words. His looks, charisma, voice, desire to succeed, and talent carried him far on screen and stage. His portrayal of Ramses II was mesmerizing. Truly the American Dream come true. Superb interviewer.
Yes not sure which is best “the king and I “ or the Ten Commandments he was great in both
What a marvelous baritone voice & that accent is so alluring💛💛💛💛💛💛 - Yul will always be Ramses & King of Siam to me - RIP
I absolutely agree with you there will never be another yul he will always be the king long live the king rip 😭💖🙂
He was glorious and Virginia McKenna is a legend in her own right. ❤
There will never be another King like Yul Brynner you are loved and missed dearly. I saw it many many years ago with Yul in it and was the third generation of my family to see it.
I was so so lucky to see this musical in 1979 when I was 12. I was blown away and Yul came back out for about 12 encores!!!
I was 13 He was amazing it was my first time in the theatre what a thing to see never forget it
Yul Brynner such a strong presence.
Hi ,my friend played his Son ,Rizzani was his name ,I wonder what happened to him .
yes i went to london to watch it was amazing to see all the baby's on stage playing the part always in my thoughts that play
One of the giants of the movie screen. Such a charismatic figure who exudes masterful authority and conviction with every role. I could listen to Mr.Brynner for hours.
I was very upset about my losing hair..Until I saw Yul..Thanks Yul..Love you as an actor too....
I loved him. He was magical.
Such a charismatic, charming, intelligent, sexy man. I've absolutely loved him ever since I saw the film aged 8.
Very respectful of Judith Chalmers to call him Mr Brynner, A lovely handsome man who really liked women.
If he had complimented me like that, I would have just died - and that voice - so exciting!!
Yul was a fantistic actor would watch all his films with my dad loving his speech
He spoke multiple languages. So brilliant was he. Handsome as ever. The vibrations that emerge from his voice is enough to take my breath away.
Did you know his French was totally native, even better than what you can hear today in France's media, he spoke so condidently with a hint of accent and refined phrases, this man had stunning talent
I absolutely loved this. What wonderful people.
Really enjoy listening to her when she speaks so so graciously, she really is beautiful in every way.Classy lady.
Brilliant actor, person and the voice is so awesome
merci beaucoup pour avoir posté cette interview! ça fait plaisir de voir qu'encore aujourd'hui on pense à ce merveilleux acteur :)
My first celebrity crush. I wish I had seen him perform live. Dazzling.
What two lovely actors they are,Yul Brynner a respectful gentleman and Virginia Mckenna a fantastic actress and Lady who seemed humbled and glad to get the Difficult part of Mrs Anna.😊❤
Brynner is so utterly charming...
I saw this in Philadelphia, live, with these two, in 1979 or ‘80. He was magnificent. Unbelievable. He filled the entire theatre with his personality.
I saw the King and I at the Palladium in London in 1979, I was 12 at the time and I must say that Yul Brynner had an incredible presence on stage that even a 12 year old could notice. It was 1 of my best experiences
Sun Flower I was 18 in 1979 and went with my parents and 14 year old sister. Got Virginia's autograph by pushing my sister forward into the crowd :)
Did you see him?
I took my Mum to see the show in 1979. We were both thrilled. Miss McKenna was wonderful as Anna and Mr Brynner was simply fabulous. A happy memory.
Sun Flower - you were so lucky, I always wished I had
Merci pour cette vidéo d'excellente qualité concernant un acteur extra-ordinaire ! Un très bon moment !
Yul Brynner is the best King actor in this movie.
😍 so handsome with a magnificent smile 😊… a lovely man with also a such deep beautiful voice 💜
A model of man in my chilhood! What a spirit
"Many many years to come."
SO TRUE!!❤️
I saw them in London. It was fabulous.
...swoon...i love yul bryner...
Virginia is so so beautiful and very gracious and soeaks so eloquently. She makes a perfect Mrs Anna, a very classy lady indeed. Yul is handsome and perfect as king.
Love Yul ❤️
Drooling over Yul Brynner! I absolutely fell in love with his bald head and him back in the 60’s 😊
What is the obsession with yul's head shaven? He is stunning with his head shaven.
The King and I is my most favourite musical because I was hypnotised by Yul comfort of playing the king.
Not an obsession - just interesting to know that he decided on that look simply because of doing this show.
Yul shaved his head for this role at a time when bald heads were just...unfashionable. Losing hair was unmanly. So to proudly have it shaved, brazen, yet still put off a vibe that today is called "big dick energy" was crazy and intriguing
Oh he is just such a charismatic man. God bless xx
Love Yul! Thank you!
I love Yul

40 years ago? Wow.
I remember this.
This is a perennial treat for all the family!
I was lucky enough to work on the show in London. It was lovely
WOW WOW WOW !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!11
From a mad keen 76yo Aussie fan.
Mm. When acting was much different 2021. You’ll one of a kind just great couple
Mention the name Mr Yul Brynner and you
instantly connect the GREAT Hollywood
Superstar as the King of Siam in the
movie and stage production of
The King and I one of my favourite
musicals of all time. Mr Yul Brynner
with a strong voice of command once
you see him you are already in awe
of his presence immediately. Some
actors are born to play certain
roles and Mr Yul Brynner was
meant to play The King of
Siam. The SO lovely so down to
earth now OBE Virginia
McKenna was SO perfect for the
role as Anna. SUPER show and
SUPER interview.
😃
Charmante Virginia mckenna que j ai découvert dans 'ma vie commence en Malaisie "avec le non moins séduisant Yul Brynner 💕
I believe Mr. Brynner performed with Ms. McKenna in 1979.
I love the fact that he augments his height with very high heels on his shoes and sandals. (6:43). He broke his back in 1958 and lost some of his 5' 8" which caused him to look way up to his costars which was sometimes an issue apparently. Height or hair? Who needs it in his case.
He broke his back in the '30's, much earlier.
She is so amzing, true lady. Now she would be explaining her kill the Patriarchy tattoo and if you didn't like she would shame and call you racist.
Ever for ever Ramses II, nobody can.
You can see he was very sick the best actor Oscar winner of all time.
Would love to have seen him with Claire Bloom...And yes Judith Chalmers is so perfect....congratulations on the OBE Judith.
Oh, Rameses! How I miss you. . . Yul is my 11th Commandment: Thou shalt drool over Yul. . . RIP, my good man. 😘💕
Muy buen actores de orígenes gitanos vivía los gipsy la mejor raza del mundo
He had star quality in the first instant and makes all celebrities seem third class........
Great interview , however when Virginia McKenna says she auditioned for Richard Rodgers in New York and 'Mr Hammerstein' she is stating that she either auditioned for Jamie (James Hammerstein) or Bill (William) Hammerstein I'm not sure which, as the author/lyricist Oscar Hammerstein had died 19 years before in 1960.
When was this interview done, what date "? Always great to see the great Yul Brynner in action.
He said he was 58, he died in '85 aged 65, so about '78?
Good quality for TV if it is '78, looks way more modern though.
Yuk Brynner was born July 1920 (some interviews he claimed 1925?) Based on him saying he is 58 years old during this clip it would be 1978. After his death in October 1985, an Ad aired of him speaking out against cigarettes. He quit too late, sadly smoking caused him Cancer.

@@dizzie337 I have seen some accounts saying he was born in 1915, same as Kirk Douglas.

Where did all the stars go??
The best moses moses rip
My school friend played his Son in 1979 ,Razzani ,I wonder what happened to him .
Gosh - can you imagine a female having that kind of diction nowadays?
Like, whatevs, prolly not, but like, fleek.
Men nowadays have no diction like this either. 🤷🏼♀️
The interviewer is quite smitten with Yul..
Who isn't?
That man has always melted my butter! LOL
Interviewer was a cutey in her day
And as a french i Can tell you that yul Brynner had an excellent ,perfect french language 🙂
