- Dick Moore, Roddy McDowall and Jane Powell on the "Merv Griffin Show" -1984
Transferred from VHS tape August 2021 by Bill Mills for the entertainment of film and TV fans and for film historians' research and reference.
The VHS tape did not contain the opening segment with former 1930s child star Dick ('Dickie') Moore talking about his book "Twinkle Twinkle Little Star - Just Don't' Have Sex Or Take The Car".
Thank you Bill for sharing this wonderful episode of the 'Merv Griffin Show' with my lifetime favourite, Jane Powell.
You are welcome. I am delighted that you enjoyed seeing it. (did you click the Like and Subscribe buttons? )
My wife and I are big Roddy fans and the VHS tape from which I transferred this is from her personal collection. When I discovered it in her stored stuff I knew I had to get it out to RUclips for all the fans of Roddy, Mr. Moore and the wonderful Miss Powell (who a few years after this show became Mrs. Dick Moore). Thank you for the lovely comment, Ron. It is sincerely appreciated.
I love Roddy.
Didn't see any movies with Dickie Moore, but certainly enjoyed the talents of Roddy McDowell & Jane Powell. All gone now, but never to be forgotten.
Thanks for this. It was charming. I adore Roddy and it was fun to see him so relaxed among old friends. I'll have to check out Dickie's book.
JANE IS GONE NOW....NO MGM STARS ARE LEFT...MISS HER AS I HAVE BEEN IN LOVE WITH HER SINCE I WAS 10...AND I TURN 93 IN NOVEMBER.....
Margaret O’Brien is still alive and was an MGM child actor (Meet Me in St Louis, Little Women…)

Master Roderick was a good man and beloved film star. He deserved his reputation in the industry and the love and trust from his peers. He was a true 'class act'. I'm delighted that you enjoyed seeing this vintage video (did you click the Like and Subscribe buttons? ). He and Janie were child actors together and great friends all the rest of their lives.
Thank you for the wonderful comment, Judy. It is genuinely appreciated.
Dickie Moore and Jane Powell married in 1988, four years after this show was on but by the way she looks at her you can tell he was very much in love already. They remained together until his death in 2015, 1-derful couple !!! And Roddy was such an amazing, versatile performer, loved his comic and musical turns in Carol Burnett's and as the 'guest assassin' in Columbo.
A Hollywood romance that would make for a pretty good movie itself. Thank you for the great comment, Luis.
@@billmills Oh yes, and Thank You for the ❤ !!! Blessings from San Juan, Puerto Rico.

3 Legends‼️
Dickie Moore :
Over 100 film credits.
Some, in the silent era.
Was a main “Little Rascal, “, and the one who gave Shirley Temple her first on-screen kiss.
His book: “Twinkle Twinkle Little Star, But Don’t Have Sex Or Take the Car”.
Roddy McDowell - ICON,
Jane Powell - ICON.
All 3 amazing ‼️
[ I’d like to see the beginning with Dickie].

As do my wife and I. I delighted you enjoyed seeing this clip. I'd love it of you'd click the LIKE button (and perhaps Subscribe?).
But if you're as big a fan as we are you might also enjoy seeing this video of our visiting Virginia McDowall at the MPTF's Wasserman Campus on Oct. 3, 2004 the anniversary of the death of her beloved brother Roddy. Check it out. ;-) ruclips.net/video/6EGEEcOXftY/видео.html
My mother went to a little red school house in Chicago c1910 on the prairie.
so good MY iDOLS Jane and Roddy Thank you very MUCH !!!!!!! ;o)
You are welcome. Absolutely my pleasure! Thank you for the great comment. It is sincerely appreciated. :-)
@@billmillsI appreciate and encourage a lot those souls who are some kind and caring people and You are Mr Bill Thanks again !!! :O)
5:14 Of all the people to think of making a bad film he comes up with Joan Crawford and Torch Song. It was far from bad but I guess at this point it was open season on Joan.
Hard to know exactly why. I guess it's like Newton's third law: "For every action, there is an equal and opposite reaction". In this case it's 'for every opinion there is an equal and opposite opinion'. Or as they used to say in the 1960s "Different stroke for different folks".
Thanks for the thoughtful and interesting comment, Garsons2059! I appreciate the time you took to view this and for the great comment.
Miss Roddy x
Dickie Moore later married Jane Powell.
McDowall and Merv were room mates and lovers.
@sandrashevey8252 Unless you saw Roddy and Merv touch each other’s genitalia, you don’t know they were homosexual lovers. Your biography of Marilyn Monroe sucks. Robert Slatzer is not a reliable source. For his own book about her he recreated entire phone conversations with her that he could not recall verbatim ten years later. Maybe Marilyn was murdered, but Mr. Slatzer did not witness it.
That was Monte, not Merv.
@@Smoothy4doctor26 Merv who dumped McDowell by conformiong to the `wife` syndrome. He was about to marry Juliana.
