For me, always a great contest between Lancaster and Douglas. But after reading about both their characters in more recent years, Lancaster was most definitely the man to admire.
I don't admire either actor, i like both their movies, but Kirk, to me, was better after i saw him in The bad and the Beautiful. There was no question after that. Burt seemed theatrical to me in his later roles, but i did like his early ones the best
@@girlonfire981 What I'm judging them is on this (which I probably shouldn't), is that stories abound whereby Douglas was an a hole, whereas Lancaster was most certainly not.
Who would I rather have a 'hypothetical' beer with?
Most definitely, Lancaster.
Both were Studio players meaning they did all kinds of roles, like Stewart and Fonda too. Some clicked and some didn't. A lot depends on the age and sex of the viewer. As a boy I favored Douglas because he had his now (cliched) clenched-teeth rage. I didn't and still don't like the circus movie Burt starred in. But Birdman of Alcatraz hit me at the age when us boys were into gangsters and G-men and prison breaks. Elmer Gantry, Come Back Little Sheba tipped the scale for Burt for me in later years. Kirk was kind of reduced to his chin dimple.
Please put the right photos with the right people.
YES!!! PUT THE RIGHT PHOTOS WITH THE RIGHT PEOPLE. YOU ARE SO STUPED!!!
These people can't tell the difference between Burt's second wife and Ann-Margret!
Yes. How ridiculous. Montgomery Clift as Burt!
The lost art of editing! Yish!
Why?
I think he was a greater actor than Marlon Brando.
Agreed.
He was one of the best. There's no other way of looking at it.
That's funny since he was traditionally pitted against Kirk Douglas. I can't think of Burt in a Brando mold.
Photo of Montgomery Clift shown while talking about Burt. Get it right for crying out loud.
Thanks for your kind feedback!
Thank you, get it right.
You got that right!
So many people seem to think they can be totally sloppy on the Internet because nobody knows anything. This kind of wrong photo tells me these people are pathetic.
@@classicsuntold Do your job correctly and you'll get top feedback.
An actor having cosmetic enhancement is hardly a "revelation"!
He never took not one acting lesson. His brother was a NYC policeman. My father knew his brother. He was an NYPD lieutenant.
After his brother retired from the PD, he went and lived with Burt. Unfortunatly, his brother died a little while afterwards.
One of my favorite actors- I think my favorite role Apache.
True, great movie. He had many great roles : Birdman of Alcatraz, Sweet Smell of Success, Elmer Gantry! Just to name a few. Please don't forget "Come Back Little Sheba"- GREAT
For me was the train. Outstanding movie.
Burt Lancaster was a Wonderful Actor. Can you imagine, Never took an acting lesson, That's Talent. I believe he and Kirk Douglas appeared 5-7 times. He was one of a Kind. Burt and Sidney Poitier were at the 1963 March on Washington. There were in a Television Movie, By the name of Separate But Equal, Co starring Clevon Little and Richard Kiley Directed by George Stevens Jr. May Mr. Lancaster Rip Always 🙏
Funny how so many people are happy to hear about, and often want to hear about an actor's heterosexual life, their marriages and children, but when talk of someone's gay or bisexual nature of some actors comes out, then the prejudices of some fans come out. "They don't want to hear it" is the frequent refrain.
Every actor is not gay. But many are, and many are bisexual. In the early decades of film actors had to hide or supress their homosexuality or their careers would be over.
Whether we are talking about Lancaster, Cary Grant, Tyrone Power or Katherine Hepburn, the reality of their sexual orientation and the pressure to even go as far as live as heterosexual was intense. And the studios manufactured the myths that they were heterosexual to keep up their popularity with the movie-going public. And the publib bought those myths, hook, line and sinker.
Prior to Stonewall in 1969, most gay men got married to women, functioned as best they could within those marriages in a compartmentalized fahsion but usually led secret other lives on the side.
It was even more true with many actors. Thank goodness those days are mostly over. Today great actors like Matt Bomer and Andrew Scott don't have to hide their homosexuality while they portray leading (straight) men on the screen.
The FBI maintained a file on Burt Lancaster and when released as well as some interviews with members of the Lancaster revealed that Lancaster suffered from life-long depression, was bisexual and had many short-term relationships with men, not only between his three failed marriages but during them.
I couldn't have said it better, but I'll add this: when a website, or movie, or TV show, or ANYTHING displays heterosexuality, nobody complains, "Some things should be private. Don't rub our noses in it."
@@akrenwinkleYou just proved their point. You rub our noses in your heterosexuality all the time.
@@akrenwinkleYou proved their point. You rub your heterosexuality in our faces all the time.
Lots of people find Sodomy distasteful.....Sorry , but that's how it is..!
There is no reason to mention a person's sexual life. It is done to merely garner attention and it is pointless.
Its been said,it was pleasure to watch Burt walk across a room. A true star
A movie actor had cosmetic surgery! Big surprise.
Europe tore Burt from the claws of Holywood, where he would have remained a beefcackling actor till his dying days. Legendary directors like Bertolucci, Negrin, Visconti! A handsome, dignified man.
All America had left was the icky Kirk Douglas (at least his son Michael showed SOME talent 🙂)
Photos and text are ;mismatched, so results are unreliable.
I'm afraid this is the growing effect of A1. More and more sub-mediocre videos are rapidly produced and spit onto YT. Ghastly things!
If we knew it all along, it couldn't be much of a revelation.
Ah yes...the Fruit & Nut world of Hollywood....nuf sed ?
at 7:21 that's Ann-Margret and her husband Roger Smith. At 2:10 I believe that's him in the movie The Swimmer----that was an interesting role and I don't believe it was mentioned here.
The Swimmer was such a daring idea.
@@gloriamontgomery6900 yes it was. i also recall Joan Rivers was one of the folks whose pool Burt swam in!
The people who made this video never heard of Ann-Margret and think that the lovely young woman with Roger Smith is Burt Lancaster's second wife.
It was based on a John Cheever story wasn't it and he also has a cameo appearance in the film I seem to remember? Yes weird idea
No mention of THE SWIMMER (1968), arguably his greatest role?
And such a different concept. It was mesmerizing
A wonderful actor and versatile as well. I don't care about celebrities private lives. They are entitled to some privacy. From Here to Eternity is one of my favorites. What a great era!
My favorite actor. 💙💙💙
You barely mentioned "The Train." You didn't bring up "Elmer Gantry." That's where he won his academy award.
His performance in "Airport" was great, but he thought the film was ridiculous. The only reason he took it was because of the big cash he would make for the film.
Why ev’body gotta be gay, gay, gaaaayyyy…
The best actor ever. When one dies , anyone can say what they want rather true or false. And that person can't deny or approve.
Burt is one of my favorites, but i think Kirk Douglas was better. After i saw Kirk in The Bad and the Beautiful i was blown away. i liked Burt in Separate Tables, Burt and Kirk in 7 Days in May and his breakout The Killer's of course. I hated that Swimmer movie he made, and didn't like that he got rid of Janice Rule because she was the stand-out in all their scenes
Equally those who love may not wish to damage those they love during their lifetime, due to bigotry. An estate, one is reliably informed, can sue.
Birdman of Alcatraz was a good movie.
Bert i thank you for all the films you made for us ..God Bless you.../
I actually met him in the late sixties when I was about fourteen. H e was very kind and patient as I told him my exploits as a very poor middle school gymnast.
I love that Burt was one of the most masculine actors ever, but also bisexual.
I appreciate that the ‘shocking’ news was not his bisexuality, but rather his facial cosmetic surgery. 💯
I can't speak for anyone else, but I've never given any thought as to whether Burt Lancaster had plastic surgery or not. He was 63 in 1976 when the film was released, so this would not be a shocking revelation. B.F.D. However, I am not hearing Bernardo Bertolucci say this, I'm hearing someone say he said this, and they are both deceased. They are not alive to confirm or deny things said about them. I can find no Bernardo Bertolucci interviews on the internet where he mentions Burt Lancaster at all. Anyone can look up Burt Lancaster's movie career on IMDb and again, he is not alive to confirm or deny the stories about his affairs with men or women.
deBORah Cur? No . DEBrah Car.
Deborah Kerr😊
Amazing actor. Many incredible films.
So true, he always stole the show and captured so many peoples' hearts. Well.........I dreamed about him!
One of the true greats!! Love everything, he was in!
Who cares about who he loves he was gay friendly and not a racist and fought for his country and brought joy to millions of people. Leave him alone to rest in peace.
Why would you put another actors picture in his bio?
Very easily if you're not familiar with Burt or Monty Clift, with Ann-Margret or Burt's second wife.
It's pronounced "Deb ruh car"
So, Cliff & Lancaster were the same person??? That makes "From here to Eternaty" an even better film...
Now THAT was a funny comment.
@@victorlewis3251 Glad some else spotted this...🙃
It is pronounced DEB-er-ah Kahr, last name pronounced like “car”, not “cur”
Rhymes with "star".
so the big secret we waited for was - he had a facelift? WOW! I can barely contain myself. What next? He used condensed milk instead of cream in his coffee?
The photo at 1:25 is not Burt Lancaster. It is Montgomery Clift. I can’t believe this mistake!! Very poor editing.
He had lots good movies ,but I think sweet smell of success
Brilliant acting in that! One of my faves! He is so venemous!
BIG SECRET: plastic surgery. The photos don't match the soundtrack and will confuse anybody under 40. Actually, I believe that everybody involved in this project IS under 40 and can't tell the difference between Burt and Monty Clift and have never heard of Ann-Margret.
Few actors have this greatness.
So after reading the disclaimer that in part states, "Viewers should not interpret any part of the content as factual or definitive information." Why bother watching/listening to the video? Aren't there enough lies floating around the media these days without manufacturing content to feed the public's obsession with stars?
God only Knows in re:to the fate of Burt Lancaster what the opposite path would've been as asked in the follow-up at end of this video.
Who cares he lived is life . 4:46
It's pronounced CAR (Deborah Kerr).
If we all knew it then nothing was revealed.
I think Burt Lancaster played in some unusually complex, non-macho roles, unlike the average Hollywood leading man.
and the interpretation of the prince of Salina in The Leopard? one of the most beautiful films of the 20th century,
A great and corageous man and actor. Who cares about his private life, haven't we all one?
A person's private life is his or her Concern no one else's, private means private, don't mock the dead just to make money out of newspapers and they can't defend them selves
Uhhh. . . .. Lancaster did win the Oscar for Elmer Gantry. No mention of that here.
It was said by a famous actor wend you act together lancaster out class any body with his acting
I thought this was going to be interesting. But a Hollywood actor who had plastic surgery? That’s news? More like it’s news when they don’t get it.
Handsome man s man
that's DEB-or-ah CAR! prnunciation, please!
At 1:30 that is Montgomery Clift!!!
A great actor and a WW11.hero.
Favorite Lancaster flick: Rocket Gibraltar ...
Is this a high school assignment... score C-
Isn't it a prerequisite for every Hollywood Actor to be Gay or Bisexual! That's not a question it seems to be fact! All of the queer cowboys Playing tough guy's and in reality they would have pissed all over themselves and cry if they ever had to be tough in real life! I'm not putting Lancaster in that category but it certainly wouldn't have surprised me! Peter Puffin Cowboys were everywhere in Hollywood during his career!
Oh puke!
No weirder than the fact thAT THERE WERE LOTS OF BLACK COWBOYS IN THE REAL wEST BUT THAT DIDN'T EVER SUIT hOLLYWOOD!!
So what? A Hollywood movie star has a facelift. Doesn't diminish Lancaster one iota.
great show
I WONDER IF FACE LIFT WAS BEFORE THE SWIMMER 1968
How do we know this "close friend" is really telling the truth. He may be insane or may not really be a friend.
Or the video makers made it up.
no mention of "Local Hero"....
"De bora Cur." Yup. The voice sounds real, but it ain't.
it's the Flame and the Arrow and the Crimson Pirate with his buddy Nick Cravat that I remember him for.
Legend
Os encantaría subtítulos en español no. Os enteramos y somos fan de lancaster
So he used his good looks to hustle fame and glory so what welcome to planet Earth
and no mention of ELMER GANTRY when he WON HIS OSCAR???????
Agreed. The chemistry between Lancaster and Jean Simmons was superb.
Big whoop.
This is shoddy. What about Elmer Gantry, for which he received the Oscar?
I think it's pronounced "Debra", not DebORa.
Cheeta never took acting lessons
Grandparents were Belfast Protestants.
Surprising he was bisexual
Burt was quit a predator when you read up on him.
Tony Curtis was one of Burt's cruising buddies they attended many swim parties of boys only l always suspect Lloyd Bridges was on the game as well
Also veracruz
Shame the narration mispronounces Deborah
At age 6, in 1952, the very first color movie that I ever saw was Burt's "The Crimson Pirate"! He seemed the epitome
of good looks, strength & natural ability, to be a "movie star'! (I have always thought that had the "Batman" series been
made in the 50's, he would have been perfect for the role!) While some of his portrayals may have been a little "over the
top", he never failed to entertain! It's hard to believe that such a handsome man would ever need extensive plastic surgery!
Well, maybe some of this is true.
De bora a ker can't you pronounce her name correct DEBORAH is DEBORAH and KERR like CAR
He always came across as a bit 'over the top' to be credible!
I love Frank gorshins take on burt as well as Steve Lawrence on Carol birnett
Who were his male affairs?⭐️👍
Tony Curtis I'm sure and Jeffrey Hunter maybe a few trists with Henry fonda
Could all be a pack of lies.
And ........... ?
Weird pronunciations and pictures.
Most actors are weird
Machine generated script and voice. They all sound the same. Lots of superlatives and no soul.
Close friend?
Oh God, "a vocal advocate for causes" -- then, as now, you toe the "liberal" party line if you expect to go on working in movies. The "liberal" blacklisting is worse than ever now.
You know, I am tired of hearing how every actor out there is actually gay. I am sure all actors have plenty of chances to be gay, but I am sick of hearing about it. Sometimes it may not even be true although I am sure some of them were gay, drug addicts and many other negative things. However, I also think these people or forces out there who make these videos enjoy tearing down everyone's favorite movie star and dragging their image through some tarnished reality about them. These people who make these videos can't even get the right picture to match who they are alking about so the whole thing seems like trash. Probably only Burt Lancaster himself knows how much is true or not.
The video is just quoting other sources. Burt's family acknowledges he was bi. They they don't see it as a "negative thing". And to be clear he wasn't gay. He was genuinely attracted to, and had affairs with, both sexes.
Peccato ke nn tutti sappiano Lingua Inglese....
Don't tell me, let me guess. Homosexual
The Leopard - 1963, cel mai bun rol al sau !
1:06;yes,SO unfashionable to be English in America isn't it,but not an Irish Republican though!🥱
BORING!Play a different tune Sam!
The only role that I felt was believable was that of a a charlatan evangelist.
Never cared for him.
Are you a liar because you said;" Burt Lancaster had affairs with women 'and men' " Burt Lancaster was HETEROSEXUAL.
How do you know??
@@raquelgarvin8391 How do YOU, the one who said Lancaster was gay, know he was? Homosexuality at that time was NEITHER socially acceptable nor seen as normal. And it is still not perceived as normal as the animal kingdom instinctively knows 2 genders are essential for every species on earth for a purpose. Gays excessively lie trying to normalize homosexuality, to the point where some idiot tried to say Abraham Lincoln was gay@!?# No, it is not naturally normal. Ancient Greek soldiers, and where women were scarce resorted to gay activities mostly out of necessity.
You are incorrect. He was bisexual, and it isn't news. It has been known for many years.
Reynolds
Was bisexual
Cut it off early. Seeing picture that were not Burt Lancaster but other actors. You needed to do better editing.
Lancaster is an English name, not irish.
Burt's parents were both immigrants from the north of Ireland.
