One of the nicest things I ever heard about Angela Lansbury is that she would arrange for older actors without work to guest star on Murder, She Wrote, to ensure they could keep their health insurance through the Screen Actors Guild. A lovely woman
Never heard a scandalous or immoral thing about this lady. She was the epitome of class and elegance. I respect her for not falling into the dark temptations of Hollywood and remaining focused. Marrying a gay man was just unfortunate, as many men of the time were closetted and married to keep up appearances. She wasn't the first or last woman to go through that in Hollywood. Lansbury is an absolute legend. May she rest in eternal peace.
1st time I heard that she and be Arthur had a thing going on a saying Angela Lansbury even did all the arrangements and death notice for her. What is a best friend, that would be a great friend that would do that for a best friend who's without a husband and no close family. Growing up we always referred to our female friends as girlfriends now when I'm saying that, I'll say my friend pop
She was also known as the nicest person in Hollywood. She kept Murder She Wrote going for two years longer than she wanted so the crew wouldn’t lose their jobs. What a role model she is. Thank you for this doing this video. She had a keen understanding of life.
Hello Linda, How're you doing?i came across your profile while surfing through the site,..i thought of you being interesting to know, hope you don't mind?
Angela Lansbury left a legacy in this world. She was a magnificent actress. She had so much to offer on the table, and she went far and beyond to achieve that.
@@KarineAlourde Thank you for a great tribute video. She was an iconic actress/performer and lived a pretty decent life. As for her comment, which you say you don't completely get, and don't agree with, I'll give you a man's perspective . Of course, being overpowered and assaulted is a terrible thing and shouldn't happen. Angela was very brave to say what she thought. The truth is, a lot of men would agree with what she said. If a young lady (or any woman) wants to look pretty and do her hair, nails etc., there's nothing wrong with that. But if she wears a tank top and tight shorts? A thong on the beach or poolside? A mini skirt? Those are just "asking for trouble". What's the purpose in wearing such clothes? It's not because the clothes are "comfortable". The goal is to attract interest.What kind of interest? The one night kind. How do women not get this? It seems Angela did and was berated for it. If you want a man, make yourself look beautiful in a modest way and you'll find a good guy, a keeper. Dress like a hooker and there may be unexpected consequences. I think this was Angela's warning to the women of the world. Unfortunately, most just don't get it. Protect yourself by dressing and acting modestly. That's Angela's message.
@@tripwire8457As a woman I agree with you 💯. I understand her POV and mostly agree. I think a lot of us women lack wisdom these days & present ourselves suggestively, or place ourselves into dangerous situations that could be avoided. I think this is one of the reasons why God tells women to be modest in the Bible.🤷🏾♀️ I'm not victim blaming, BUT I am saying that we need to be realistic about the dangers of this fallen world & use wisdom to avoid bad situations the best we can. If a billionaire takes his nice car to the hood & leaves the keys in it while he's visiting someone... we'd all give him the 😒 if he were to be shocked his car was gone when he came back out.😂 Yes they were wrong to steal his car, BUT he needs to take accountability for his poor decision making in the 1st place, bc he wasn't careful & put himself in that bad position. I believe that some (not all) cases of SA are a result of the person's bad decision making. They didn't deserve it & it's wrong of the offenders, BUT they could've made diff choices to better protect themselves. I feel like we do young ppl a disservice when we talk about SA, but excuse all the victims BAD decisions bc we don't want to "victim blame".😮💨😔 Because otherwise how are they supposed to learn to protect themselves by making safe choices & good decisions? We have to address the world as it is (full of evil predators), and not as it should be (safe from SA & violence). 🤷🏾♀️ That's just my opinion... sorry for the long msg.😅
Me and my mom bonded over "Murder She Wrote" and "Columbo" during the weekends. She was a part of my childhood and adult life. I hope she's resting well in heaven. Such a lovely lady.
You have to remember what age she was raised, how her world growing up was so different than ours is. She was a dear woman and I don’t care that she had that opinion. It was her experiences coming up in those times. I will always remember her for being one of my favorite actresses and for entertaining me all these years. In my mind she was a beauty through and through and I will dearly miss her. RIP Dame Landsbury ❤️
I agree. Often she saw other actresses get the best part because they dressed to seductively to gain advantage. Women had a lot less control and power in those days both in career and in society. Many of those females did end up abused also.
@@renmuffett yes i agree, her reality was surrounded by a lot of women who did deliberately do this for parts not realising that the guys they were trying to get the parts from were in a culture where if they wanted you and you wanted a part you did not get to say no. and lord forgive me when you look at some of the actresses from back in the day that were total hatchet faces and couldn`t act for crap they had definitely gone willing to the alter! so you can understand where she was coming from some of this young girls went in and just got way over their heads because they didn`t understand a lot of those kids never recovered
Times change but people don't. It's not the time that you grow up on that makes you a decent and good caring person as she was. It's the way you choose to live your life. To say it's the times that people live in is just an excuse.
Murder She Wrote was a favorite show of mine back in the day. That's what made me fall in love with Angela Lansbury. Her role in The Manchurian Candidate gave me chills. Rest in peace, Angela. We'll miss you.
Listen nothing can touch Angela or her impeccable and near perfect legacy. The woman was a gem. The last of her kind and we're not gonna let Twitter warriors and their disrespectful nature tell us otherwise. She's a lady of a different age and time, a different generation. She's allowed to have her opinions. Although we don't have to like or agree with it , but she's allowed.
@@Vic-on5ic You're free to be wrong, just like she was. This toxic belief that something you did makes people r*pe you needs to die already, since it's patently and demonstrably false. But women in particular cling desperately to this illusion of control "it can't happen to me because I behave correctly". It probably helps some women to sleep at night. But it's still wrong and sad.
Yes. You're free to be demonstrably wrong. I guess Angela didn't see the "what they wore when they were assaulted" exhibition with all the foxy and seductive dungarees and baby onesies.
I think people should stop expecting folks from certain generations to be ""woke" about certain topics, if they are that's great but if they're not these people are from different generations where certain things were tolerated. I think we're expecting a little too much
No excuses. I understand how common that school of thought was, but in those days there were also an opposing perspective that didn't espouse that "blame the victim" pov. So, she was wrong and justifiablyheld accountable for it. It is that type of thinkingrgat continues to reason away the mistreatment of women. And her words contributed to that tradition. It doesn't lessen her value as a great mother or accomplishments as a stellar actress/thespian. Rest in Power, Angela 🌹
I didn’t understand her comment to mean ‘women are to blame for the treatment they may receive’ or that she is excusing rape. It seems to me that she was saying that men have failings that women should be aware of. And women should be careful not to tempt them beyond what they can tolerate, if possible. In other words, be compassionate and understanding and don’t do anything stupid!
@@shawnmatthews9594 she was 100% wrong about the statement but I think people are expecting too much from certain generations, there are still things we are backwards about that future generations will probably look at us sideways for. Definitely don't excuse people but just understand they not going to think like you
It’s laziness on the part of the critics. Angela was absolutely right about women using the best versions of themselves to attract men. It has been a currency since the first creatures were on earth. Both male and female of species preen and try to exhibit the healthiest features in order to fulfil the survival of the species. That is basic. However, the problem is that through history most women have only been able to trade on their looks because they did not have enough points in the status, power, money or family stakes. Men who did not make the most of themselves did not lose out in the same way as societies were generally patriarchal. Women were traded in marriage as a commodity and beauty was used to compensate for the other attributes. It was said that Nell Gwynn was open about making herself as ugly as possible whilst she was selling oranges in the rough theatres to keep away men in general. Men did not have a filter and in patriarchal societies women were seen as generally less valuable so could be used and abused frequently without any justice. This is still true and calling it “Domestic… well you know” is no help to the campaign to shift the emphasis to stigma of the abuser. The lack of openness about Domestic Violence is one of the reasons it has been able to exist for so long. Not well done.
Hey Karine you did a great job. I am a teacher and we have to continue to allow ideas of all sides conservative and liberal to be expressed. Old fashioned ideas in many fields are being reconsidered such as parenting or the importance of nature and environment etc. The bottom line here is modesty for women. Modesty in dress, but mostly in demeanor. At the end of the day we are the ones who are most influential on our children not the men. Ms Lansbury did not say we should not take care of ourselves or enhance our looks and she was not against the Me too movement. She was cautioning women and young girls not to reveal too much....to keep it short. It is a fact that some people in both genders can be provocative. That's how I understood her comments. I hope that makes sense in this highly sensitive debate. Peace.
I was a big fan of the movie Bedknobs and Broomsticks, and her series Murder She Wrote. She was an incredible actress and will be sorely missed. RIP Angela.
I mostly knew Angela Lansbury from her voice acting and of course Murder She Wrote. It wasn’t until college when I saw her wide range in films like The Court Jester and Bedknobs and Broomsticks. Her career was impressive and I’m glad she got her due in her lifetime. ❤
She’s not blaming the victim. She’s opening up a subtle and important conversation that could never be discussed on social media because that’s not a place for subtlety and nuance.
I think she-and a lot of people now-are just uninformed about that kind of assault. For example, women and girls who dress provocatively are actually _less_ likely to be sexually assaulted than those who wear conservative clothing. Apparently, women who wear conservative clothing are seen as less confident and likely to fight. Plus, a lot of people who commit that kind of crime want to humiliate the victim as much as possible, which makes the conservative-looking potential victim more likely to be chosen. If she’s talking about basic verbal street harassment, I don’t know data about that, but from experience, it doesn’t seem to matter what you wear or how much time you put into trying to look attractive. Those men just seem to want to make everyone uncomfortable.
I agree Joseph and I give her credit for trying to even discuss such a polarizing topic that can trigger so many. Personally, I'm tired of seeing so much skin, male and female... everywhere.
I don't object to her opinions; I am just glad she had the guts to express them. Twitter might change now and watching the pathetic WOKE idiots leaving the building is a sheer joy. If Musk does change things people will not get cancelled for having opinions that don't correspond to the WOKE narrative. I agree that women should accept some responsibility for the things they do. Cases of men jumping out from behind a bush are very rare. The victim is never responsible for an evil act being perpetrated against them. That is an incontrovertible point. However, a great many women think the world is what they want it to be, as opposed to what it really is. This childish level of intelligence endangers many girls and women. The horrifying rise in this disgusting crime warrants females being sensibly advised. It is not just a question of this assault; it is a misguided notion of what men want. Women are encouraged to dress like - frankly, prostitutes. They get drunk, go back to an apartment of a man they hardly know... I repeat, she is not responsible for any crime, but she is responsible for being reckless. I see true crime documentaries where women go out in a group, dance and drink...and then everyone wants to go except one woman who remains in the club alone. Many terrible crimes start out this way. In my day, no woman would stay alone in a club. This might not be something you agree with, but hopefully things are changing. Women have been primary movers in the WOKE movement. They get hysterical and demand people stop talking about important subjects, rather than thinking and engaging with points made.
She was beyond amazing. I first was introduced to her in “Harvey girls”. She was so beautiful and talented. I saw her onstage in Sweeney Todd. She was such an incredible LBGT supporter. God bless you.
Thanks to Turner Classic Movies, I've seen Angela Lansbury in National Velvet, Gaslight, The Picture of Dorian Gray, and many others. But if there's one movie that she appeared in that truly showed off the range of her talent is "The Manchurian Candidate". That Oscar nomination was well-deserved! RIP Angela Lansbury🌷
I also agree with you on “The Manchurian Candidate”. She was equally good playing decent characters and wicked ones. I would love to have seen her in the Broadway production of “Sweeney Todd” playing Mrs Lovett (the role that Helena Bonham Carter played in the film version). They say she was magnificent in the role. Another baddie that she played was the obnoxious, unfaithful mother in “The World Of Henry Orient”, which was a childhood favorite of mine. I once saw her on a ferry boat (I forget where we were going). My mother noticed her first and pointed her out to me. Though I am quite a fan of hers, I didn’t want to bother her. Neither did my mom, so we left her sitting alone.
You just named my 3 favorite movies of hers! She was so sweet a lady, and it was a hoot to see her in mean girl roles like Nancy in Gaslight, and Mrs Eislan in Manchurian Candidate.
She was an absolute stunner when she was young and still kept her Poise throughout her career and her life. I loved Murder she wrote it was a good show.😊
Hello Diane, How're you doing?i came across your profile while surfing through the site,..i thought of you being interesting to know, hope you don't mind?
I didn’t know she recently passed away, when I stayed home from school “sick” I would watch Murder she wrote and Matlock. You always do so great with all your videos. Omg I had to add o forgot about Bedknobs and Broomsticks, that’s a comfort movie, one of the best.
I first remembered her from The Harvey Girls because I'm a Judy Garland fan. I actually never watched Murder She Wrote but knew of her from that show and of course Beauty And The Beast and Anastasia. I'm glad she was able to get her kids away from that situation. Knowing the horrible actions that came from that cult, it was definitely in the nick of time. As for her comment, I actually do understand in a way. Sometimes those of us who have been assaulted do place blame on ourselves. We shouldn't have been there, we should have fought harder, we should paid better attention, etc. Even though it really isn't our fault, we still put blame on ourselves and it's not easy to let that go. 25 years later and I'm still not able to let go of the shame and guilt for not fighting harder, etc. So, that's why I get it and that could be what she was getting at but just not in the context it was worded. It is an unfortunate situation where women are always having to be consciously aware of men around us and worrying one or more will impose themselves on us forcibly. Men don't have to worry so much about that because, while it can and has happened at times, they are not generally a target for SA. I just hope people understand that. I don't think she was victim blaming as much as she was just wanting women to be more aware of their surroundings and the people around them. Afterall, she worked in an industry where SA runs rampant and those in charge, that impose their will on others, rarely answer for it.
She was fabulous at 17 in her first role in The Picture if Dorian Gray right through the decades in her many and varied characterizations. A magnificent talent.
this is the first time i have came across this outlook on old Hollywood Miss Angela Lansbury it was a eye opener i had only known her from “Murder She Wrote” i was amazing how much this Lady had in common with us folk from the UK, 😊 seeing how stunning and talented she was amazed me, she probably saved the lives of both of children by getting them out of the USA and back to Ireland. I’m not saying it’s a better upbringing. I’m saying it’s different and different was enough to save there life that having the foresight the knowledge of what could happen if she stayed, so Broadway got a bonus and having a fantastic actress bike on the boards in London and her children had an easier life different but easier thank you. I appreciate everything and all the hard work you have done. What a fantastic series you have and I have subscribed and happy to do so.💐🥳 Cheers 🥃🍻
An all time favourite of mine. She was talented, she was human, she was "the Tops" as far as I am concerned. Thank you Angela LANSBURY, may you forever R.I.P. !
When I was little, Nanny McFee was one of my absolute favourite movies and thought she was so funny as the aunt! I also loved watching Murder She Wrote with my grandma and getting in trouble with my mom because I wasn’t allowed tv on school nights😭 anyway, she was so awesome and she may rest in piece.
I've always loved Angela Landsbury. Thank you for informing us further about her life story. There are a lot of things in this video that I didn't know about her. As for the controversial comment she made, I think she wanted bring out awareness, but it came out the wrong way and became offensive. Oh well, we are all human and make mistakes.
The onus is on offended people to get a thicker skin. But they enjoy being offended. When it is time for war, easily offended people will be useless. They only thrive in times of prosperity. Whoever raised them should have to deal with them.
I watch ‘Murder She Wrote’ every morning while getting ready for work. Ms. Lansbury’s been on mind for awhile because so many in her age bracketed were passing away. I just found out today she passed. I always thought her to be a very classy upscale lady, who is owed so much respect. I first saw her when I was kid in Samson and Delilah. I am huge fan and just hurt that she is gone. But I believe she lived an awesome quiet life. I never heard anything negative about her. And I’m not about to start now. 🌹 My sincere condolences to her family and friends.🌹
Some of these photos of Angela show such a beauty, a pin girl easily! Wow! I always loved her humor, her animated way of acting, wonderful facial responses. She is, was, a delight to watch. She seems so grounded. Homebody comes through, I guess. And generous. What a sweetheart. ❤❤
I first saw her in the movie SAMSON AND DELILAH. But I later saw her in a film called THE PICTURE OF DORIAN GRAY, based on the novel of the same title by writer Oscar Wilde. And I recall the series MURDER SHE WROTE
The way that her second husband looked at her in every photo showed just how in love they were and how they wisely and boldly acted in a quick manner to move their children out of Hollywood into Ireland to protect their children from Charles Manson's cult influence was such a wise move. In her personal life she was definitely a strong success.!
Hello Melissa, How're you doing?i came across your profile while surfing through the site,..i thought of you being interesting to know, hope you don't mind?
I recall seeing Angela sitting in the back of a diner, I don't remember the name of the dinner. She looked like she didn't want to be bothered and I respected that and didn't approach her, but when she realized that I had recognized her she gave me the sweetest smile.
As far as her remarks went, that was old school thinking. It wasn’t unusual back in her day, for women to be their own worst enemy and look up to their men at their own expense. My mother was just a bit older than her but when we went shoe shopping, she wasn’t happy until she had a man check them. I wouldn’t judge her too harshly.
I was a fan of murder she wrote. My uncle and I would watch the show that played all day. He was telling me that she was even more gorgeous in her youth. She has pretty eyes like all water signs. She was playing the piano and singing and she had a nice voice.
She may be referring to the fact that some people, men and women alike, dress scantily and don't respect their body. I don't agree that a rape victim is ever to blame for being raped, but that is how her generation thought.
Hello Carol, How're you doing?i came across your profile while surfing through the site,..i thought of you being interesting to know, hope you don't mind?
This was pretty amazing thank you Karine for this wonderful breakdown. May Mrs. Lansbury Rest In Peace always, Murder She Wrote I used to watch with my now, late paternal grandmother. Along with Beauty & The Beast being a personal favorite from my childhood and still is, she’ll always be. Mrs. Potts. 💛🙏🏾💛
I believe that she was speaking from the era of being born in the 1920s. Of course she wasn't speaking about Brave women like Chanel Miller. The point that resonated with me is the role models for young girls are Cardi B., Niki Manaj & Meg the Stallion. Lizzo is famous for glittery nakedness. When people imitate this behavior in real life, Angela Lansbury is base. Facts. Spitting truth 👏 💯
@@SDubThe-illis great 👍 there are endless photos of Angela Landsbury, Jane Mansfield, Marilyn Monroe, Doris Day .... Please share your photos of each and any making public appearances showing their a$$ like the aforementioned women.
@@SDubThe-illis stop being stopping disingenuous. They was not acting the way Megan a stallion cardi B and lizzo acted back in the day. They did not they had some sense of modesty. Women have always shown their body since the 15th century before then. But this generation is so backwards and full of negativity and mess. Every generation has this problematic ways.
@@lacecocoa6272 I'm 62 and I have no problem with people showing their bodies. And Lizzo's a damn fine flautist. What we need to be doing is insisting that everyone get over the obsessive idea body positivity justifies or allows assault or harassment.
Mom and I spent many hours watching Murder She Wrote (again, and again)..what a wonderful talent and such a purity about her. Loved her in so many movies. She will be missed but feel she has a star role in heavens big screen
The Red Queen ❤👑🃏! The Manchurian Candidate was one of the best movies of all time! What a great actress! As a kid, I remember watching Angela Lansbury every Sunday night on Murder, She Wrote. She will be missed.
Her comments make perfect sense, taken in context. No one condones such attacks and dressing provocatively is not an invitation to anything but there are circumstances where you know you tempt fate. Shouldn't be so, but still is.
So glad that you showed clips from "The Court Jester". That was the first film I saw her in and it is one of my favourites. From watching her movies and then on to TV and also her voice acting, to me she was so talented. She was a lovely person but loved humour. Her close friend Bea Arthur sad that she could swear like a longshoreman. She will be missed, but I have some wonderful memories of Angela Lansbury. 💖💖💖
Rest In Peace to Ms Lansberry. I didn’t know much about her but I loved Beauty & the Beast and she would forever be a part of my childhood. Also doesn’t Kelly Clarendon resemble her a bit?
Thank you for your thorough coverage of Angela Lansbury. Sadly she is one of the last from Hollywood’s golden era. Her comment might have offended a lot of people but there might be a small nugget of truth in it. Any man who violates a woman should be…… Now, we have to look at the way women are dressing and acting. Today women are walking bearing their breasts, midriffs and bottoms with no conscience at all. I personally don’t think anything is wrong with making yourself as attractive as possible but there is a line to be drawn.
@@renmuffett Me too. I think Angela was referring to the way women are presenting themselves today. They seem to have abandoned the subtle art and skill of being female, which is about dignity and self-possession. Today,, girls lack confidence. So afraid of being overlooked and ignored,they themselves cheap, putting all their goods on display. Self-expression is ok, but what we are seeing now is really a form of social anxiety. Look at the desperation of actresses at award ceremonies ! By the way, George Lansbury was a saintly man , deeply revered by the British
Women, girls & babies should be sble to be naked (the natural human form) without being violated, harrassed, sexualized & objectified . I think it's smallmonded and a diss-service to women/girls surviving patriarchy!
The nerve of her first husband, twice her age, dumps her by short letter then goes public claiming a petty reason for leaving her when he was actually in the closet, made worst by her blaming herself for not noticing.
Agreed. He most certainly used her youth and naivety as a shield, never thinking of the damage he caused her emotionally or socially. He was manipulative, and he used her stardom to gain himself better access to the higher echelons of the gay community that loved her. It's really sad, especially since she was really still a child...19yrs isn't grown enough for a Grown 35yr old man. He knew that, and that is what makes him gross. He groomed her, used her, and discarded her.
There was too many men undercover back then who definitely used women like judy garland for respectibility and status . Obviously she's easy on the eye ,and nurturing. . It's better that it's legalised BC less women get hurt by the deceptions
Angela was so drop dead gorgeous! I saw her on Ed Sullivan when she was on Broadway in Mame. She was so beautiful and sophosticated. I really sympathized with her when the Manson family tried to get her daughter Didi to join them. And after so many glamorous roles, she then took the part of Mrs Lovett in Sweeny Todd!
Beautiful tribute! Even the criticism was made in a polite and very decent way - not detracting too much from the overall picture of a wonderful talented and kindly lady, but making the point all the same. Thank you so much!
I saw Angela at theater in Atlanta when she did MAME. There will never be another like her an amazing talent who could play any type or age with aplomb and fire. Her rendition of IF He Walked Into My Life Today still gives me a lump in my throat. Also her performances in Gaslight and Manchurian Candidste are memorable.
Hello Diane, How're you doing?i came across your profile while surfing through the site,..i thought of you being interesting to know, hope you don't mind?
Angela Lansbury was the definition of elegance and grace. Not a bad word was said about her and the fact that she left hollywood to protect her children shows what a wonderful lady she was. In addition she was a brilliant actress and a beautiful woman ❤
I am from Russia. And I saw Murder, she wrote absolutely random on TV. And i couldn't stop to watch this TV show. And now i watching some movies with her as Gaslight and rewatch MURDER, SHE WROTE. I didn't know, that she was popular in Old Hollywood 💔 I am grateful for this biographical video.
Ms. Lansbury was a fabulous and one of the most versatile actresses in the business. Too bad that Hollywood under utilized her talents. As a young actress, she was always given villainous roles which made her look cold and heartless. I'm glad that Broadway gave her the opportunity to show her great acting talent and also gave her softer and more compassionate roles. Needless to say, Murder She Wrote was one of my favorite television shows. I enjoyed that show because I got to see many of the forgotten stars of Hollywood's Golden Age before they passed away. I like the fact that she didn't forget her contemporaries. I liked that she didn't always leave her children in the care of nannies and governesses. To put it bluntly, Ms. Lansbury was a wonder to behold.
I really love Angela Lansbury it's sad that's she's gone my first intro to her was "Bedknobs & Broomsticks" followed by her hit show "Murder She Wrote" but seeing her in younger years she was a stunning beauty besides being beautiful she has beautiful voice to go along with it. Even as she got older she was still a beauty I need to check out her other movies. And Karine I hope you do a video on Montgomery Clift, Robert Downey Jr, Sean Connery, Tom Hiddleston, Roddy McDowell, Betty White, Elizabeth Montgomery.
She had class. Just pure class. The way she carried herself. He had the British never complain, never explain. She could wear a 'trashy costume ' but somehow she didn't look 'trashy '. Wholesome thats the word. She wasn't a raving beauty but was absolutely beautiful. I think all of us 'ladies' should learn to carry ourselves like her.....Like a LADY. Confident not egotistical. Put together but not done up. Few words more action (I've failed that one right here). Yes she was a TRUE LADY.
This was a thoughtful and honest review of her life. We really did get to enjoy the best of her work. My Grandmother got me hooked on Murder She Wrote, and showed me many of the old classics she had roles in. Her skill and voice over work was undeniable. I don't agree with some of her comments, but she was from a time where many women adjusted their psyches to appease the male ego just to survive and have some level or comfort. Breaking that mentality may not have been where her strength was, which is ashame but She did was a good soul. As Women, we must learn the magnitude of our power and become better prepared for the energy it can attract. However, awareness of Self doesn't absolve violators at any point. ALL MEN/MALES MUST LEARN HOW TO CONTROL THEMSELVES as there is NO JUSTIFICATION for the violence against ANY WOMAN just because She has the ability to arouse male genitals. Nevertheless, Angela Lansbury certainly has earned her accolades and peaceful rest, she was a fine actress 💗
I loved Murder She Wrote and watch it to this day! I think her comments were a reflection of the era she grew up in. This was a lovely tribute! There’s one episode i really appreciated, her character was on the bus and a young black guy was watching her, I thought oh no here goes the stereotyping but the young man followed her and either asked for an autograph or helped keel or her safe in an alleyway lol I thought Go Angela!
I'm new to your channel and I'm excited because it's so classy thank you for covering these remarkable careers... may she rest in peace she was a great actress ❤️
Hello Lisa, How're you doing?i came across your profile while surfing through the site,..i thought of you being interesting to know, hope you don't mind?
I can see Angela Lansbury's point of view. I have been married for 61 years and there is a line that I will not cross when it comes to the way I dress. I think one should have repect for ourselves and that extends to others. Angela was honest which is slapped down these days in favour of being in with the crowd. Lovely lady.
On our honeymoon to NYC, back in 1966, my husband n I saw Angela Lansbury in the production of “Sweeney Todd”. I fell in love with her from then on…made sure I got home from school (teacher) JUST in time for “Murder She Wrote”. Aaaahh! God’s blessings be upon your soul and may you Rest in His Loving Arms , Angela! ❤
Hello Charlotte, How're you doing?i came across your profile while surfing through the site,..i thought of you being interesting to know, hope you don't mind?
Wow! A great tribute you made to wonderful Angela Landsbury...very comprehensive. Aside from her remarks regarding women who make themselves "attractive", which I think, and not to excuse them, are sort of a product of her generation...she was just an awesome and incredibly talented person. She gave to very worthy causes without fanfare or drawing attention to herself. She was a class act. I loved her in Bedknobs and Broomsticks and The World of Henry Orient ( a hilarious movie with Peter Sellers). She will be missed.
Thank you for the video, very good. You have to remember when she was born and how she was raised. I am 64 and my Father had the same ideas. She may have meant it in a different way as well...but that doesn't mean she should have been attacked for her thoughts, as you know as a RUclipsr that comments from Trolls are unnecessary and hurt. I will stand by people having their own opinions, but not the bullying involved in the disapproval of those opinions. You handled those differences of opinion with grace. By the way, I grew up around the Manson family...they even tried to block our car once...my Mother just gassed it and ran through them. Tex threw a bottle at us as we passed. It was really scary to see them on T.V. about a month later...very scary. Cyber Hugs.
Dear Karine, I have been watching your videos for a little bit. I really appreciate the background music and how you use your voice in that video. You are making that new type of video your own. Great video about Angela, an iconic actress that was a staple of our family afternoons for a long time. My beloved parents loved her show "Murder She Wrote".
I absolutely adored Angela in Murder She Wrote....it was a great show. I didn't realize alot of her acting beforehand until now....she was awesome. I'm ashamed that I forgot about her role in Blue Hawaii as Elvis mom......I loved her character in that movie 😊. Thanks for the remembrances of her life 🕊️💗
She reminds me of another old Hollywood star- I’d love to see you do a video on Bette Davis!! Super popular throughout her life, 4 marriages, 10 academy award noms-she was a force to be reckoned with 😍💫 Love ur videos btw, great analysis of all these women
I watched The Picture of Dorian Grey, days before she passed. I didn't know she was in it, but her EYES were so undeniable, I knew it was her immediately! I was so enchanted by her. Murder She Wrote was my era for Lady Lansbury. She was loved by generations of fans. That's not easy to do to stay relevant for so long. Rest well Madame 💜
she was very old when she made those comments.. I think the world would be better if we were more tolerant of people who have unpopular opinions or ones that we don't agree with...love watching her in almost anything... good singer and great actress RIP

@karineAlourde have you done a video on Betty White? I love Ms. Angela Lansbury❤❤
One of the nicest things I ever heard about Angela Lansbury is that she would arrange for older actors without work to guest star on Murder, She Wrote, to ensure they could keep their health insurance through the Screen Actors Guild. A lovely woman
@ Susan. I didn’t know that , but I’m not surprised. Her grandfather would have been so pleased.
The list of *Murder, She Wrote* guest stars included staggering numbers of iconic actors from Broadway, Movies, and Television.
Yeah I heard about that recently she was a good person
I didn't know that, how generous of her
Never heard a scandalous or immoral thing about this lady. She was the epitome of class and elegance. I respect her for not falling into the dark temptations of Hollywood and remaining focused. Marrying a gay man was just unfortunate, as many men of the time were closetted and married to keep up appearances. She wasn't the first or last woman to go through that in Hollywood. Lansbury is an absolute legend. May she rest in eternal peace.
I loved this comment! A very nice comment indeed.

Lansbury (l
Oh, relax, I am a brilliant speller, yet I made this very mistake!
1st time I heard that she and be Arthur had a thing going on a saying Angela Lansbury even did all the arrangements and death notice for her. What is a best friend, that would be a great friend that would do that for a best friend who's without a husband and no close family.
Growing up we always referred to our female friends as girlfriends now when I'm saying that, I'll say my friend pop
She was also known as the nicest person in Hollywood. She kept Murder She Wrote going for two years longer than she wanted so the crew wouldn’t lose their jobs. What a role model she is. Thank you for this doing this video. She had a keen understanding of life.
Didn't even know this about her, but I'm certainly not surprised.
Hello Linda, How're you doing?i came across your profile while surfing through the site,..i thought of you being interesting to know, hope you don't mind?
Angela Lansbury left a legacy in this world. She was a magnificent actress. She had so much to offer on the table, and she went far and beyond to achieve that.
Yes indeed! May she continue to rest in peace ❤
@@KarineAlourde Thank you for a great tribute video. She was an iconic actress/performer and lived a pretty decent life.
As for her comment, which you say you don't completely get, and don't agree with, I'll give you a man's perspective .
Of course, being overpowered and assaulted is a terrible thing and shouldn't happen. Angela was very brave to say what she thought. The truth is, a lot of men would agree with what she said.
If a young lady (or any woman) wants to look pretty and do her hair, nails etc., there's nothing wrong with that.
But if she wears a tank top and tight shorts? A thong on the beach or poolside? A mini skirt? Those are just "asking for trouble". What's the purpose in wearing such clothes? It's not because the clothes are "comfortable". The goal is to attract interest.What kind of interest? The one night kind. How do women not get this? It seems Angela did and was berated for it.
If you want a man, make yourself look beautiful in a modest way and you'll find a good guy, a keeper.
Dress like a hooker and there may be unexpected consequences. I think this was Angela's warning to the women of the world. Unfortunately, most just don't get it. Protect yourself by dressing and acting modestly. That's Angela's message.
@@tripwire8457As a woman I agree with you 💯.
I understand her POV and mostly agree. I think a lot of us women lack wisdom these days & present ourselves suggestively, or place ourselves into dangerous situations that could be avoided. I think this is one of the reasons why God tells women to be modest in the Bible.🤷🏾♀️
I'm not victim blaming, BUT I am saying that we need to be realistic about the dangers of this fallen world & use wisdom to avoid bad situations the best we can.
If a billionaire takes his nice car to the hood & leaves the keys in it while he's visiting someone... we'd all give him the 😒 if he were to be shocked his car was gone when he came back out.😂 Yes they were wrong to steal his car, BUT he needs to take accountability for his poor decision making in the 1st place, bc he wasn't careful & put himself in that bad position.
I believe that some (not all) cases of SA are a result of the person's bad decision making. They didn't deserve it & it's wrong of the offenders, BUT they could've made diff choices to better protect themselves.
I feel like we do young ppl a disservice when we talk about SA, but excuse all the victims BAD decisions bc we don't want to "victim blame".😮💨😔 Because otherwise how are they supposed to learn to protect themselves by making safe choices & good decisions? We have to address the world as it is (full of evil predators), and not as it should be (safe from SA & violence). 🤷🏾♀️
That's just my opinion... sorry for the long msg.😅
Me and my mom bonded over "Murder She Wrote" and "Columbo" during the weekends. She was a part of my childhood and adult life. I hope she's resting well in heaven. Such a lovely lady.
Oh I loved both those shows 😊
@@bethshadid2087 😇
Your mum let you watch murder programmes?
Same with me! They’re my comfort shows now 🥹
@@Elisabet1999 Comfort shows! That's the right term 🤗
You have to remember what age she was raised, how her world growing up was so different than ours is. She was a dear woman and I don’t care that she had that opinion. It was her experiences coming up in those times. I will always remember her for being one of my favorite actresses and for entertaining me all these years. In my mind she was a beauty through and through and I will dearly miss her. RIP Dame Landsbury ❤️
I agree. Often she saw other actresses get the best part because they dressed to seductively to gain advantage. Women had a lot less control and power in those days both in career and in society. Many of those females did end up abused also.
@@renmuffett yes i agree, her reality was surrounded by a lot of women who did deliberately do this for parts not realising that the guys they were trying to get the parts from were in a culture where if they wanted you and you wanted a part you did not get to say no. and lord forgive me when you look at some of the actresses from back in the day that were total hatchet faces and couldn`t act for crap they had definitely gone willing to the alter! so you can understand where she was coming from some of this young girls went in and just got way over their heads because they didn`t understand a lot of those kids never recovered
Times change but people don't. It's not the time that you grow up on that makes you a decent and good caring person as she was. It's the way you choose to live your life. To say it's the times that people live in is just an excuse.
I saw her in a few films. May she RIP. Her kids were lucky to have such a protective mom.
I did not know she passed. Omg! 😢
Leave Angela Landburyalon let her Rest in Heaven.Why is this important
Have always been a fan of hers. Rest In Peace, Angela. 🙏
she was so beautiful, and underrated as a diverse actress
Murder She Wrote was a favorite show of mine back in the day. That's what made me fall in love with Angela Lansbury. Her role in The Manchurian Candidate gave me chills. Rest in peace, Angela. We'll miss you.
Listen nothing can touch Angela or her impeccable and near perfect legacy. The woman was a gem. The last of her kind and we're not gonna let Twitter warriors and their disrespectful nature tell us otherwise. She's a lady of a different age and time, a different generation. She's allowed to have her opinions. Although we don't have to like or agree with it , but she's allowed.
Exactly how I feel but you said it better.
Yes! Exactly! Thank you!
I am a woman and I actually agree with her opinion.
@@Vic-on5ic You're free to be wrong, just like she was. This toxic belief that something you did makes people r*pe you needs to die already, since it's patently and demonstrably false. But women in particular cling desperately to this illusion of control "it can't happen to me because I behave correctly". It probably helps some women to sleep at night. But it's still wrong and sad.
Yes. You're free to be demonstrably wrong. I guess Angela didn't see the "what they wore when they were assaulted" exhibition with all the foxy and seductive dungarees and baby onesies.
I think people should stop expecting folks from certain generations to be ""woke" about certain topics, if they are that's great but if they're not these people are from different generations where certain things were tolerated. I think we're expecting a little too much
No excuses. I understand how common that school of thought was, but in those days there were also an opposing perspective that didn't espouse that "blame the victim" pov. So, she was wrong and justifiablyheld accountable for it. It is that type of thinkingrgat continues to reason away the mistreatment of women. And her words contributed to that tradition. It doesn't lessen her value as a great mother or accomplishments as a stellar actress/thespian. Rest in Power, Angela 🌹
@@shawnmatthews9594 Amen.
I didn’t understand her comment to mean ‘women are to blame for the treatment they may receive’ or that she is excusing rape. It seems to me that she was saying that men have failings that women should be aware of. And women should be careful not to tempt them beyond what they can tolerate, if possible. In other words, be compassionate and understanding and don’t do anything stupid!
@@shawnmatthews9594 she was 100% wrong about the statement but I think people are expecting too much from certain generations, there are still things we are backwards about that future generations will probably look at us sideways for. Definitely don't excuse people but just understand they not going to think like you
It’s laziness on the part of the critics. Angela was absolutely right about women using the best versions of themselves to attract men. It has been a currency since the first creatures were on earth. Both male and female of species preen and try to exhibit the healthiest features in order to fulfil the survival of the species. That is basic. However, the problem is that through history most women have only been able to trade on their looks because they did not have enough points in the status, power, money or family stakes. Men who did not make the most of themselves did not lose out in the same way as societies were generally patriarchal. Women were traded in marriage as a commodity and beauty was used to compensate for the other attributes. It was said that Nell Gwynn was open about making herself as ugly as possible whilst she was selling oranges in the rough theatres to keep away men in general. Men did not have a filter and in patriarchal societies women were seen as generally less valuable so could be used and abused frequently without any justice. This is still true and calling it “Domestic… well you know” is no help to the campaign to shift the emphasis to stigma of the abuser. The lack of openness about Domestic Violence is one of the reasons it has been able to exist for so long.
Not well done.
Hey Karine you did a great job. I am a teacher and we have to continue to allow ideas of all sides conservative and liberal to be expressed. Old fashioned ideas in many fields are being reconsidered such as parenting or the importance of nature and environment etc. The bottom line here is modesty for women. Modesty in dress, but mostly in demeanor. At the end of the day we are the ones who are most influential on our children not the men. Ms Lansbury did not say we should not take care of ourselves or enhance our looks and she was not against the Me too movement. She was cautioning women and young girls not to reveal too much....to keep it short. It is a fact that some people in both genders can be provocative. That's how I understood her comments. I hope that makes sense in this highly sensitive debate. Peace.
She's a good mom saving her daughter. I loved watching her in some of the movies.
And her son too. She took them both out of the country. Put her career on hold just when it was at its peak. Good mom!
How're you doing?i came across your profile while surfing through the site,..i thought of you being interesting to know, hope you don't mind?
I was a big fan of the movie Bedknobs and Broomsticks, and her series Murder She Wrote. She was an incredible actress and will be sorely missed. RIP Angela.
Beauty and the Beast, Anastasia and Murder She Wrote. One of my Childhood memories. Here's to a legendary actress, Angela Lansbury RIP. 🙏🏽💜
I mostly knew Angela Lansbury from her voice acting and of course Murder She Wrote. It wasn’t until college when I saw her wide range in films like The Court Jester and Bedknobs and Broomsticks. Her career was impressive and I’m glad she got her due in her lifetime. ❤
Not to mention her stunning Broadway career. The lights were dimmed in her honor.
It’s so hard for me to keep up with these old Hollywood videos, but I’m going to try and watch them all, supporting you and all 🥹🫶🏾.
😘💖
She’s not blaming the victim. She’s opening up a subtle and important conversation that could never be discussed on social media because that’s not a place for subtlety and nuance.
I think she-and a lot of people now-are just uninformed about that kind of assault. For example, women and girls who dress provocatively are actually _less_ likely to be sexually assaulted than those who wear conservative clothing. Apparently, women who wear conservative clothing are seen as less confident and likely to fight. Plus, a lot of people who commit that kind of crime want to humiliate the victim as much as possible, which makes the conservative-looking potential victim more likely to be chosen.
If she’s talking about basic verbal street harassment, I don’t know data about that, but from experience, it doesn’t seem to matter what you wear or how much time you put into trying to look attractive. Those men just seem to want to make everyone uncomfortable.
I agree Joseph and I give her credit for trying to even discuss such a polarizing topic that can trigger so many. Personally, I'm tired of seeing so much skin, male and female... everywhere.
Exactly.
@@mkuti-childress3625 Could you provide the name of the data you refer to, please?
I don't object to her opinions; I am just glad she had the guts to express them. Twitter might change now and watching the pathetic WOKE idiots leaving the building is a sheer joy. If Musk does change things people will not get cancelled for having opinions that don't correspond to the WOKE narrative.
I agree that women should accept some responsibility for the things they do. Cases of men jumping out from behind a bush are very rare. The victim is never responsible for an evil act being perpetrated against them. That is an incontrovertible point. However, a great many women think the world is what they want it to be, as opposed to what it really is. This childish level of intelligence endangers many girls and women. The horrifying rise in this disgusting crime warrants females being sensibly advised. It is not just a question of this assault; it is a misguided notion of what men want. Women are encouraged to dress like - frankly, prostitutes. They get drunk, go back to an apartment of a man they hardly know... I repeat, she is not responsible for any crime, but she is responsible for being reckless. I see true crime documentaries where women go out in a group, dance and drink...and then everyone wants to go except one woman who remains in the club alone. Many terrible crimes start out this way. In my day, no woman would stay alone in a club.
This might not be something you agree with, but hopefully things are changing. Women have been primary movers in the WOKE movement. They get hysterical and demand people stop talking about important subjects, rather than thinking and engaging with points made.
She was beyond amazing. I first was introduced to her in “Harvey girls”. She was so beautiful and talented. I saw her onstage in Sweeney Todd. She was such an incredible LBGT supporter. God bless you.
Yes, she had love for everyone. I know she is dancing in Heaven with her beloved.
Thanks to Turner Classic Movies, I've seen Angela Lansbury in National Velvet, Gaslight, The Picture of Dorian Gray, and many others. But if there's one movie that she appeared in that truly showed off the range of her talent is "The Manchurian Candidate". That Oscar nomination was well-deserved! RIP Angela Lansbury🌷
I couldn't agree more!!!
I also agree with you on “The Manchurian Candidate”. She was equally good playing decent characters and wicked ones. I would love to have seen her in the Broadway production of “Sweeney Todd” playing Mrs Lovett (the role that Helena Bonham Carter played in the film version). They say she was magnificent in the role. Another baddie that she played was the obnoxious, unfaithful mother in “The World Of Henry Orient”, which was a childhood favorite of mine. I once saw her on a ferry boat (I forget where we were going). My mother noticed her first and pointed her out to me. Though I am quite a fan of hers, I didn’t want to bother her. Neither did my mom, so we left her sitting alone.
@@MsAppassionata "The World of Henry Orient" and "The Reluctant Debutante". Loved both movies.
You just named my 3 favorite movies of hers! She was so sweet a lady, and it was a hoot to see her in mean girl roles like Nancy in Gaslight, and Mrs Eislan in Manchurian Candidate.
Portrait of Dorian Grey?
I'm still watching Murder She Wrote where my late grandmother used to watched her. R.I.P.🙏🏾⚘💗
She was an absolute stunner when she was young and still kept her Poise throughout her career and her life. I loved Murder she wrote it was a good show.😊
Hello Diane, How're you doing?i came across your profile while surfing through the site,..i thought of you being interesting to know, hope you don't mind?
I love Angela!! I was a HUGE "Murder She Wrote" Fan. Thanks so much for these wonderful looks into famous women's lives!
The way her 2nd husband would look at her in those pictures, you could just see how much he was in love with her.
I didn’t know she recently passed away, when I stayed home from school “sick” I would watch Murder she wrote and Matlock. You always do so great with all your videos. Omg I had to add o forgot about Bedknobs and Broomsticks, that’s a comfort movie, one of the best.
There's a murder she wrote marathon on cozi tv this week
Yesss! Matlock was another favorite of mine.
R.I.P Queen Angela, thank you for making my childhood so magical
❤🌹
I first remembered her from The Harvey Girls because I'm a Judy Garland fan. I actually never watched Murder She Wrote but knew of her from that show and of course Beauty And The Beast and Anastasia. I'm glad she was able to get her kids away from that situation. Knowing the horrible actions that came from that cult, it was definitely in the nick of time. As for her comment, I actually do understand in a way. Sometimes those of us who have been assaulted do place blame on ourselves. We shouldn't have been there, we should have fought harder, we should paid better attention, etc. Even though it really isn't our fault, we still put blame on ourselves and it's not easy to let that go. 25 years later and I'm still not able to let go of the shame and guilt for not fighting harder, etc. So, that's why I get it and that could be what she was getting at but just not in the context it was worded. It is an unfortunate situation where women are always having to be consciously aware of men around us and worrying one or more will impose themselves on us forcibly. Men don't have to worry so much about that because, while it can and has happened at times, they are not generally a target for SA. I just hope people understand that. I don't think she was victim blaming as much as she was just wanting women to be more aware of their surroundings and the people around them. Afterall, she worked in an industry where SA runs rampant and those in charge, that impose their will on others, rarely answer for it.
She was fabulous at 17 in her first role in The Picture if Dorian Gray right through the decades in her many and varied characterizations. A magnificent talent.
this is the first time i have came across this outlook on old Hollywood Miss Angela Lansbury it was a eye opener i had only known her from “Murder She Wrote” i was amazing how much this Lady had in common with us folk from the UK, 😊 seeing how stunning and talented she was amazed me, she probably saved the lives of both of children by getting them out of the USA and back to Ireland. I’m not saying it’s a better upbringing. I’m saying it’s different and different was enough to save there life that having the foresight the knowledge of what could happen if she stayed, so Broadway got a bonus and having a fantastic actress bike on the boards in London and her children had an easier life different but easier thank you. I appreciate everything and all the hard work you have done. What a fantastic series you have and I have subscribed and happy to do so.💐🥳 Cheers 🥃🍻
She was such a sweetheart ❤️❤️❤️❤️.One has to remember she comes from old school. Her values come from when she was growing up in the 30s.
RIP Angela Lansbury. Love her and I have no doubt she was the kindest actress in Hollywood in her day. She was a class act.
She came across as a lovely person with a good heart and God blessed her with many years, I hope she was saved and went to heaven.
What a smart mother! Protect your babies at any cost! Learn from her folks.
boy ,that wedding dress she had for her second marriage was so beautiful ..someone should bring that design back
Such a beautiful lady😍
An all time favourite of mine. She was talented, she was human, she was "the Tops" as far as I am concerned. Thank you Angela LANSBURY, may you forever R.I.P. !
When I was little, Nanny McFee was one of my absolute favourite movies and thought she was so funny as the aunt! I also loved watching Murder She Wrote with my grandma and getting in trouble with my mom because I wasn’t allowed tv on school nights😭 anyway, she was so awesome and she may rest in piece.
I've always loved Angela Landsbury. Thank you for informing us further about her life story. There are a lot of things in this video that I didn't know about her.
As for the controversial comment she made, I think she wanted bring out awareness, but it came out the wrong way and became offensive. Oh well, we are all human and make mistakes.
I think you are right. She was misunderstood.
The onus is on offended people to get a thicker skin. But they enjoy being offended. When it is time for war, easily offended people will be useless. They only thrive in times of prosperity. Whoever raised them should have to deal with them.
I watch ‘Murder She Wrote’ every morning while getting ready for work. Ms. Lansbury’s been on mind for awhile because so many in her age bracketed were passing away. I just found out today she passed. I always thought her to be a very classy upscale lady, who is owed so much respect. I first saw her when I was kid in Samson and Delilah. I am huge fan and just hurt that she is gone. But I believe she lived an awesome quiet life. I never heard anything negative about her. And I’m not about to start now. 🌹 My sincere condolences to her family and friends.🌹
So sad we've lost this wonderful woman.
I just found this out today and I’m like 😢…..
Bed Knobs & Broomsticks was a childhood favorite of mine , she was fantastic in every role. RIP Ms Lansbury 🙏🏾
Some of these photos of Angela show such a beauty, a pin girl easily! Wow! I always loved her humor, her animated way of acting, wonderful facial responses. She is, was, a delight to watch. She seems so grounded. Homebody comes through, I guess. And generous. What a sweetheart. ❤❤
A very talented woman. May she rest in perfect peace.
I first saw her in the movie SAMSON AND DELILAH. But I later saw her in a film called THE PICTURE OF DORIAN GRAY, based on the novel of the same title by writer Oscar Wilde. And I recall the series MURDER SHE WROTE
The way that her second husband looked at her in every photo showed just how in love they were and how they wisely and boldly acted in a quick manner to move their children out of Hollywood into Ireland to protect their children from Charles Manson's cult influence was such a wise move. In her personal life she was definitely a strong success.!
Hello Melissa, How're you doing?i came across your profile while surfing through the site,..i thought of you being interesting to know, hope you don't mind?
I recall seeing Angela sitting in the back of a diner, I don't remember the name of the dinner.
She looked like she didn't want to be bothered and I respected that and didn't approach her, but when she realized that I had recognized her she gave me the sweetest smile.
You're an excellent storyteller.
I love it.
She was an iconic actress, indeed. RIP.
I always loved Angela Lansbury’s eyes, her and Bette Davis-those eyes! RIP ANGELA🕊️
She was a phenomenal actress!
As far as her remarks went, that was old school thinking. It wasn’t unusual back in her day, for women to be their own worst enemy and look up to their men at their own expense. My mother was just a bit older than her but when we went shoe shopping, she wasn’t happy until she had a man check them. I wouldn’t judge her too harshly.
I was a fan of murder she wrote. My uncle and I would watch the show that played all day. He was telling me that she was even more gorgeous in her youth. She has pretty eyes like all water signs. She was playing the piano and singing and she had a nice voice.
The way her husband Peter looks at her in those photos is everything. How wonderful they had 54 years together ❤
She may be referring to the fact that some people, men and women alike, dress scantily and don't respect their body. I don't agree that a rape victim is ever to blame for being raped, but that is how her generation thought.
And I don't think she was actually saying that women deserve to be raped.
Hello Carol, How're you doing?i came across your profile while surfing through the site,..i thought of you being interesting to know, hope you don't mind?
This was pretty amazing thank you Karine for this wonderful breakdown. May Mrs. Lansbury Rest In Peace always, Murder She Wrote I used to watch with my now, late paternal grandmother. Along with Beauty & The Beast being a personal favorite from my childhood and still is, she’ll always be. Mrs. Potts. 💛🙏🏾💛
All of what you said. Every generation goes through different things based on their era and societal standards.
I believe that she was speaking from the era of being born in the 1920s.
Of course she wasn't speaking about Brave women like Chanel Miller.
The point that resonated with me is the role models for young girls are Cardi B., Niki Manaj & Meg the Stallion. Lizzo is famous for glittery nakedness.
When people imitate this behavior in real life, Angela Lansbury is base. Facts. Spitting truth 👏 💯
Blah, blah blah, women back then showed their bodies too
@@SDubThe-illis great 👍 there are endless photos of Angela Landsbury, Jane Mansfield, Marilyn Monroe, Doris Day ....
Please share your photos of each and any making public appearances showing their a$$ like the aforementioned women.
I agree with you 100%.
@@SDubThe-illis stop being stopping disingenuous. They was not acting the way Megan a stallion cardi B and lizzo acted back in the day. They did not they had some sense of modesty.

@@lacecocoa6272 I'm 62 and I have no problem with people showing their bodies. And Lizzo's a damn fine flautist. What we need to be doing is insisting that everyone get over the obsessive idea body positivity justifies or allows assault or harassment.
Wow she was beautiful in her younger years.
Murder she wrote was one of my favorite shows when I was a lil girl.
Mom and I spent many hours watching Murder She Wrote (again, and again)..what a wonderful talent and such a purity about her. Loved her in so many movies. She will be missed but feel she has a star role in heavens big screen
The Red Queen ❤👑🃏! The Manchurian Candidate was one of the best movies of all time! What a great actress! As a kid, I remember watching Angela Lansbury every Sunday night on Murder, She Wrote. She will be missed.
She's beautiful. You did a great job covering her, as always!!💋
I loved Angela Lansbury in The Harvey Girls. She was stunning as a saloon Girl.
There's a difference between making oneself attractive and dressing provocatively.
Her comments make perfect sense, taken in context. No one condones such attacks and dressing provocatively is not an invitation to anything but there are circumstances where you know you tempt fate. Shouldn't be so, but still is.
Meat attracts vultures. Put out too much meat and they take it as an invitation. I am ready to be cancelled now.
Man! I loved "Murder She Wrote". I used to watch it with my mom. RIP Mom.
So glad that you showed clips from "The Court Jester". That was the first film I saw her in and it is one of my favourites. From watching her movies and then on to TV and also her voice acting, to me she was so talented. She was a lovely person but loved humour. Her close friend Bea Arthur sad that she could swear like a longshoreman. She will be missed, but I have some wonderful memories of Angela Lansbury. 💖💖💖
I remembered her from Murder she wrote. She was very beautiful.
Rest In Peace to Ms Lansberry. I didn’t know much about her but I loved Beauty & the Beast and she would forever be a part of my childhood. Also doesn’t Kelly Clarendon resemble her a bit?

@@JudgeJulieLit Thanks!
Thank you for your thorough coverage of Angela Lansbury. Sadly she is one of the last from Hollywood’s golden era.
Her comment might have offended a lot of people but there might be a small nugget of truth in it. Any man who violates a woman should be…… Now, we have to look at the way women are dressing and acting. Today women are walking bearing their breasts, midriffs and bottoms with no conscience at all. I personally don’t think anything is wrong with making yourself as attractive as possible but there is a line to be drawn.
I agree!
@@renmuffett Me too. I think Angela was referring to the way women are presenting themselves today. They seem to have abandoned the subtle art and skill of being female, which is about dignity and self-possession. Today,, girls lack confidence. So afraid of being overlooked and ignored,they themselves cheap, putting all their goods on display. Self-expression is ok, but what we are seeing now is really a form of social anxiety. Look at the desperation of actresses at award ceremonies ! By the way, George Lansbury was a saintly man , deeply revered by the British
Women, girls & babies should be sble to be naked (the natural human form) without being violated, harrassed, sexualized & objectified . I think it's smallmonded and a diss-service to women/girls surviving patriarchy!
The nerve of her first husband, twice her age, dumps her by short letter then goes public claiming a petty reason for leaving her when he was actually in the closet, made worst by her blaming herself for not noticing.
Agreed. He most certainly used her youth and naivety as a shield, never thinking of the damage he caused her emotionally or socially. He was manipulative, and he used her stardom to gain himself better access to the higher echelons of the gay community that loved her. It's really sad, especially since she was really still a child...19yrs isn't grown enough for a Grown 35yr old man. He knew that, and that is what makes him gross. He groomed her, used her, and discarded her.
There was too many men undercover back then who definitely used women like judy garland for respectibility and status . Obviously she's easy on the eye ,and nurturing. .
It's better that it's legalised BC less women get hurt by the deceptions
She was too nice to her first husband who obviously used her and didn’t have the decency to be honest when he left.
How was Angela Lansbury supposed to know or notice that her first husband was gay? 🤔 😳
@@AdultThirdCultureKid1971 no idea, she claimed to be young and sexually inexperienced but realistically, that doesn't matter.
Angela was so drop dead gorgeous! I saw her on Ed Sullivan when she was on Broadway in Mame. She was so beautiful and sophosticated. I really sympathized with her when the Manson family tried to get her daughter Didi to join them. And after so many glamorous roles, she then took the part of Mrs Lovett in Sweeny Todd!
An outstanding actor. She should have won an Academy Award. A very sincere lady. RIP 🩷
What a screen Legend big part of my life ,my condolences to the family, may she rip ,always an absolute joy 🎬 🎥
Beautiful tribute! Even the criticism was made in a polite and very decent way - not detracting too much from the overall picture of a wonderful talented and kindly lady, but making the point all the same. Thank you so much!
I saw Angela at theater in Atlanta when she did MAME. There will never be another like her an amazing talent who could play any type or age with aplomb and fire. Her rendition of IF He Walked Into My Life Today still gives me a lump in my throat. Also her performances in Gaslight and Manchurian Candidste are memorable.
Hello Diane, How're you doing?i came across your profile while surfing through the site,..i thought of you being interesting to know, hope you don't mind?
Angela Lansbury was the definition of elegance and grace. Not a bad word was said about her and the fact that she left hollywood to protect her children shows what a wonderful lady she was.
In addition she was a brilliant actress and a beautiful woman ❤
I am from Russia. And I saw Murder, she wrote absolutely random on TV. And i couldn't stop to watch this TV show. And now i watching some movies with her as Gaslight and rewatch MURDER, SHE WROTE. I didn't know, that she was popular in Old Hollywood 💔 I am grateful for this biographical video.
Ms. Lansbury was a fabulous and one of the most versatile actresses in the business. Too bad that Hollywood under utilized her talents. As a young actress, she was always given villainous roles which made her look cold and heartless. I'm glad that Broadway gave her the opportunity to show her great acting talent and also gave her softer and more compassionate roles. Needless to say, Murder She Wrote was one of my favorite television shows. I enjoyed that show because I got to see many of the forgotten stars of Hollywood's Golden Age before they passed away. I like the fact that she didn't forget her contemporaries. I liked that she didn't always leave her children in the care of nannies and governesses. To put it bluntly, Ms. Lansbury was a wonder to behold.
I really love Angela Lansbury it's sad that's she's gone my first intro to her was "Bedknobs & Broomsticks" followed by her hit show "Murder She Wrote" but seeing her in younger years she was a stunning beauty besides being beautiful she has beautiful voice to go along with it. Even as she got older she was still a beauty I need to check out her other movies. And Karine I hope you do a video on Montgomery Clift, Robert Downey Jr, Sean Connery, Tom Hiddleston, Roddy McDowell, Betty White, Elizabeth Montgomery.
She had class. Just pure class. The way she carried herself. He had the British never complain, never explain. She could wear a 'trashy costume ' but somehow she didn't look 'trashy '. Wholesome thats the word. She wasn't a raving beauty but was absolutely beautiful. I think all of us 'ladies' should learn to carry ourselves like her.....Like a LADY. Confident not egotistical. Put together but not done up. Few words more action (I've failed that one right here). Yes she was a TRUE LADY.
This was a thoughtful and honest review of her life. We really did get to enjoy the best of her work. My Grandmother got me hooked on Murder She Wrote, and showed me many of the old classics she had roles in. Her skill and voice over work was undeniable. I don't agree with some of her comments, but she was from a time where many women adjusted their psyches to appease the male ego just to survive and have some level or comfort. Breaking that mentality may not have been where her strength was, which is ashame but She did was a good soul. As Women, we must learn the magnitude of our power and become better prepared for the energy it can attract. However, awareness of Self doesn't absolve violators at any point. ALL MEN/MALES MUST LEARN HOW TO CONTROL THEMSELVES as there is NO JUSTIFICATION for the violence against ANY WOMAN just because She has the ability to arouse male genitals. Nevertheless, Angela Lansbury certainly has earned her accolades and peaceful rest, she was a fine actress 💗
Murder, She Wrote was my and my family's favorite show, too. ☺️ ❤️
Yes.🙂
Great comment. Appeasing the male ego is even now, still a big topic for relationships.
Angela Lansbury was one of the few actresses whose appeal increased as she became older as opposed to her younger days .
I loved Murder She Wrote and watch it to this day! I think her comments were a reflection of the era she grew up in. This was a lovely tribute! There’s one episode i really appreciated, her character was on the bus and a young black guy was watching her, I thought oh no here goes the stereotyping but the young man followed her and either asked for an autograph or helped keel or her safe in an alleyway lol I thought Go Angela!
I'm new to your channel and I'm excited because it's so classy thank you for covering these remarkable careers... may she rest in peace she was a great actress ❤️
Hello Lisa, How're you doing?i came across your profile while surfing through the site,..i thought of you being interesting to know, hope you don't mind?
Most of us were stunners young ....we all get old and people think we were always old isn't that ridiculous 🙄
I can see Angela Lansbury's point of view. I have been married for 61 years and there is a line that I will not cross when it comes to the way I dress. I think one should have repect for ourselves and that extends to others. Angela was honest which is slapped down these days in favour of being in with the crowd. Lovely lady.
Fascinating... thank you for this educational series of all these women that we only see one dimension of when they are on screen!
On our honeymoon to NYC, back in 1966, my husband n I saw Angela Lansbury in the production of “Sweeney Todd”. I fell in love with her from then on…made sure I got home from school (teacher) JUST in time for “Murder She Wrote”. Aaaahh!
God’s blessings be upon your soul and may you Rest in His Loving Arms , Angela! ❤
Hello Charlotte, How're you doing?i came across your profile while surfing through the site,..i thought of you being interesting to know, hope you don't mind?
Huge murder she wrote fan, ty for this!!!
Wow! A great tribute you made to wonderful Angela Landsbury...very comprehensive. Aside from her remarks regarding women who make themselves "attractive", which I think, and not to excuse them, are sort of a product of her generation...she was just an awesome and incredibly talented person. She gave to very worthy causes without fanfare or drawing attention to herself. She was a class act. I loved her in Bedknobs and Broomsticks and The World of Henry Orient ( a hilarious movie with Peter Sellers). She will be missed.
I admired her acting 🎭 and I was a huge fan of the Series “Murder She Wrote”!
Thank you for the video, very good. You have to remember when she was born and how she was raised. I am 64 and my Father had the same ideas. She may have meant it in a different way as well...but that doesn't mean she should have been attacked for her thoughts, as you know as a RUclipsr that comments from Trolls are unnecessary and hurt. I will stand by people having their own opinions, but not the bullying involved in the disapproval of those opinions. You handled those differences of opinion with grace. By the way, I grew up around the Manson family...they even tried to block our car once...my Mother just gassed it and ran through them. Tex threw a bottle at us as we passed. It was really scary to see them on T.V. about a month later...very scary. Cyber Hugs.
Those eyes are so eccentric that there was no way anyone in Hollywood would pass her up❤
Dear Karine, I have been watching your videos for a little bit. I really appreciate the background music and how you use your voice in that video.
You are making that new type of video your own. Great video about Angela, an iconic actress that was a staple of our family afternoons for a long time. My beloved parents loved her show "Murder She Wrote".
I absolutely adored Angela in Murder She Wrote....it was a great show. I didn't realize alot of her acting beforehand until now....she was awesome. I'm ashamed that I forgot about her role in Blue Hawaii as Elvis mom......I loved her character in that movie 😊. Thanks for the remembrances of her life 🕊️💗
Rest in peace Angela! 🙏
She reminds me of another old Hollywood star- I’d love to see you do a video on Bette Davis!! Super popular throughout her life, 4 marriages, 10 academy award noms-she was a force to be reckoned with 😍💫 Love ur videos btw, great analysis of all these women
Look for the time Vincent Price roasted Bette Davis!!!
I watched The Picture of Dorian Grey, days before she passed. I didn't know she was in it, but her EYES were so undeniable, I knew it was her immediately! I was so enchanted by her. Murder She Wrote was my era for Lady Lansbury. She was loved by generations of fans. That's not easy to do to stay relevant for so long. Rest well Madame 💜
Her eyes always looked sad to me, like she had been crying. She and Shelley Winters reminded me of each other.
she was very old when she made those comments.. I think the world would be better if we were more tolerant of people who have unpopular opinions or ones that we don't agree with...love watching her in almost anything... good singer and great actress RIP
Props to giving her exposure. The Manchurian Candidate was one of her best roles.
I love your channel! Thank you for doing a break down for this wonderful woman!
