Celeste Holm--Rare TV Interviews, Bette Davis, Marilyn Monroe

I’m so glad somebody cared to make these interviews and specials while these great stars and talent were still alive. Also, it needs to be said, thank God for all the incredible regular people who gave these stars a break, a kind gesture, or a free meal. Without it, they very well might’ve never got their break. That sweet man from Sardi’s ❤️

Celeste was a good friend of mine for many years. She was always very fun to be with . I met her when she was still married to Wesley Addy. He was a true gentleman and quite quiet and reserved. She and I were involved in charities in New York. Then she married Frank. He took good care of her until she died. I miss her a lot.

Celeste Holm was one of my favorites! I loved her in All About Eve.

My dad was a huge movie fan and he loved all the great actors and actresses of Hollywood's golden age. I came along in the mid-60s. I'd here my dad speak of these actors, but they weren't on TV or in the movies I was watching. Then I went to see Tom Sawyer with Celeste Holm. She was somebody my dad loved ... and I, too, fell in love with her Aunt Polly. It would be a long time before I came to appreciate classic films. But for all my childhood, I thought Celeste Holm was the greatest classic actress of all time. 25 years ago, she was presenting an award at a performing arts complex near my hometown. I so wanted to go and see her, but I couldn't. I've regretted that. Lovely lady.

Bette Davis, her dramatic skills were superb. A lot of stars said that she was difficult to work with. Not because she was a difficult person. It was just that she was a perfectionist. Davis is a Hollywood legend. If she'd been British, she would of been bestowed a knighthood. I thought that she was a brilliant actress. R.I.P Bette. Also Dame Olivia Dehavilland was a great actress who'd died just last month at the age of 104. God bless.❤🙏🙏🙏

I love how she copies the voice of the person she talked to when she tells her stories!

I just love listening to her tell these stories. Enchanting! Also, the scene when Bette comes out to discover Anne Baxter play acting is also so funny! "Eve!", in that deep Bette Davis tone. Classic!

That was such a lovely and endearing story about the man in the restaurant.

When I think of Celeste helm I think of a pearl - durable, strong , beautiful , appropriate wherever she goes .

When Bette said “bumpy “ night , her diamond ring shines

Thank you so much, I love Celeste Holm...

Snow, 1984, the new buses in NYC are in the shop because they keep breaking down so they're using old buses from the 1960s. Anyway the bus came to the corner and I raced inside, paid the driver and came face-to-face with Celeste Holm. I loved her so I said, "Are you who I think you are?" And she laughed that great giggle and said yes. Well, being a sophisticated New Yorker, I didn't want to bother her so I took my seat and I looked out the window and at the Regency movie theater which showed old Hollywood movies, they were showing, "Come to the Stable." I thought that was just terrific. I wish I could have spoken to her but she got off a few blocks later.

My grandma’s favorite actress. 🥰Made my daughter’s middle name Celeste.

Great performances by great actress and actors that era still can’t be duplicated

Timeless and classical beauty. Her eyes are beautiful. ☺️👌🏻

I love Betty Davis . She is the Best !

Good to have Celeste Holm's take on Bette Davis. A great actress, but difficult. Sheila Hancock has said similar things about Davis.

'a true lady, considerate in every way', I alwys liked her thru my life, she seemed so very nice and fair...

I still think she’s incredible!!!

my favourite actress of all time, so lovely to see her here singing and the pianist is in love with her I think
