    Love Plummers posh Canadian accent. As a Canadian, I can tell you that this an accent that we only hear in the occasional older man now. The “ quasi-british” hint over the last 40-50 years has completely vanished !!!

I Loved Plummer, and yes I think he was hands down one of the best Actors in the business...but what a horrible human being. Abandoned his child, multiple affairs on wives, proud he was an alcoholic, extremely worldly and shallow.. He never redeemed himself. Whats even sadder, he died an Athiest😢

      He is young here. Not quite age 40 yet, but near it. He's youthful looking. The longer hair suit him. Looks good on him. Handsome man. Great cheekbones. I recall seeing The Sound Of Music as an age 11/12 kid (for 50 cents) when it eventually came to the town movie house back in the day when there was a single film shown in the one movie house in most towns. I always liked him, but he was a bit pretentious, not overwhelmingly, but enough to be a turn off. It's all in the past. He had 91 years. 😊

    Sound of Music came out in 1965, this interview was filmed in 71. Only six years apart but this quote is a testimony of the earth shattering impact of New Hollywood. The entirety of American cinema changed almost overnight. Sound of Music was released on the verge of the storm

And what an intelligent, erudite man Dick Cavett is. Wonderful reminders of how good television once was. And I love the smoke billowing past Dick Cavett when the camera is on him.

    Patrick Campbell was well known in UK from a game show called "Call my bluff". He was notorious for his stammer. A quiet humourist.

      No, he was raised in Canada. But in those days it was common to adopt a standard English accent if you were classically trained in English drama and living in London and working in the London theatre. It seems odd now, but the accent became part of your persona.

    • @annehebert510
      @annehebert510 3 роки тому +14

      Canadians were also genuinely more British back in the day. I'd say it's only really since the 1960s that American culture became more popular than British culture in Canada. Christopher would have been born into a very British Canada in 1929.
