Jacqueline was so poised and soft spoken. Yet she was highly opinionated and very intelligent. Often working directly with John and sitting in on important meetings. Now that I've listened to her tapes, I have an even deeper respect. She was an amazing woman.
She was a victem of men, HUmiliated and degrated in front of the entire World. Her husband sleeping with women and one of the most famous right in the very building she slept. Just like now when women are still treated like they dont exist(trans issue) Jackie was shamefully mistreated and suffered greatly. Its sad when people ignore her real life and act like she had such a wonderful life. She didnt.
@@lennyvelez5929 After the fact, we now know how incredible she actually was. It was a different time. Not going to judge the past, but the role of the first lady was to stay behind the shadows and not participate. She was trained to act "lady-like" and poised, in the way she walked and talked. Now reading her diaries and monologues, many of us undestimated her brilliance. There is no doubt in my mind she wishes her husband was not assassinated.
Last year was the 60th anniversary of this White House tour with Jacqueline Kennedy. I really wish CBS had rebroadcast it on TV so everyone could see it in its entirety (February 14, 1962), and even this video is not all of it. Some lovely history never hurt anyone.
@@RiddlerQM That's a film and I saw it, but this is Jackie Kennedy doing this tour. It's a visual history. Jackie the film is a curated visual that the producers took a lot of liberties with.
She won an honorary Emmy for this and her restoration project helped establish the White House as a symbol of American history and transformed it into a museum. Jackie Kennedy was a very intelligent and gracious first lady. The book Jacqueline Kennedy and the Architecture of First Lady Diplomacy (America and Global Affairs) explores her significant role as a cultural ambassador and her impact on U.S. foreign relations.
WOW I am a Colombian and I was shocked to hear Colombia left an important impression on her! Such a nice gesture from her to acknowledge positive things from her trips abroad and such a reminder for people like me to keep honoring our history. After all, America, the continent, has a united heart that keeps unbroken despite people's tendency to ignore it
She was such a great First Lady in every way, she was smart, poised, stylish, incredibly strong and beautiful. I feel like she is the First Lady by which all modern First Ladies are judged, and always will be
Period This viedo footage is why Jackie is the one of the most influential first ladies she was the first to give a tour of the white house , the first to help end segeration , and the first widow to get married after her husband deah ain't no first lady like Jacqueline Kennedy hunny
My heart still breaks for Jackie, woman experienced so much tragedy in her lifetime, too much. As so many individuals have, in different ways. Beautiful lady.
But she also lived so beautiful life surrounded by much respect and love, didn’t she? Not every life looks perfect, but we can still say it’s beautiful and happy. She did lived her life 10000%.
Jackie Kennedy definitely lived a good and very influential life, but I don’t think we can call it beautiful. JFK reportedly only married her for politics and didn’t truly love her. He had numerous extramarital affairs, allegedly told one of his mistresses that he was planning to leave his wife for her, witnessed a portion of his head being blown off in front of her, held pieces of his brain together, and lost their infant son a couple of months before. Her second marriage was mainly for financial security.
The most tragic deaths she experienced was her husband JFK, her stillborn daughter (I don’t know her name off the top of my head) and her son Patrick. If she had still been alive in July 1999 she would have experienced the loss of her son John Kennedy Jr. after he died in a plane crash. I understand how you feel. She had a lot of love and support over the years. She sounded so wonderful here, I’m sorry to hear what she went through.
@@viktorgadany7595 That makes her success all the more impressive. Who wants to watch a documentary on Valentine’s Day?😂 Plus. It has always gotten rave reviews. People were very impressed. (My, how the internet has brought out all the haters now.😞)
After watching the film Jackie with Natalie Portman, I searched up this tour and she NAILED the accuracy of this particular White House tour scene - capturing the class, dignity and poise of Mrs Kennedy, not to mention her voice & mannerisms as well 💫 Mrs Kennedy will always be a treasure in American historical figures 💯
Her only contribution in the world civilisation was that she got marriet with very rich men and SPENT THEIR MONEY. Aristotelis Onasis and Josef Kenedy who paid her dress
@@Tessabell5316 in France in Sorbonne i ve learn when i support something i must explain why. So why is she great? What did she do to make her great exept of SPENDING ONASSIS MONEY AND JOSEF'S KENEDY AS WELL?
As a Colombian, I admire the way how she pronounced Simón Bolívar (our liberator) and Colombia, she try to sound spanish, it says a lot of her, she shows respect to our culture and our language, defenilty a First Lady of a Nation, I like the way how she speak soft and concise. She is one of my role modes along with Diana Spencer.
We don't know what we had until we lost it - we had President John F Kennedy and his beautiful wife and first lady. The epitome of the future, of what the sixties could hold for us. And then came November 22nd 1963, we lost it all.
I can still remember when JFK was assassinated November 22 , 1963. I was only 6 years old and did not fully understand what had happened. I do remember that it was a time of sorrow with people crying and remember the non stop coverage on TV. Even though I was only 6 I remember the funeral procession and little JFK Jr Saluting his dad , he was only three years old and he turned 3 the day of his father funeral. It is something that everybody that was alive at that time will remember. Just like those of us that were alive when the world trade centers were attacked September 11, 2001.. I remember every detail about how I found out about it , where I was and what I was doing. I remember the shock and being stunned and was trying to comprehend the horror. Jackie Kennedy was a very gracious lady.
I never thought about it like that but now that you mentioned it, the way 9/11 scarred all of us around the world, I imagine the same thing was experienced by everyone in the USA who followed the news... A truly tragic moment.
I’m too young to have fully understood 9/11 and my grandmother talks about the assassination of JFK. I’m learning about both of those things on my own now because they don’t teach you about either of those things in school.
Where's the rest of the program? They cut it off before the end. How can we watch the rest? Jacqueline Kennedy respected the white house, the history, and the arts. It's a shame her rose garden is gone.
Such a shame this beautiful tour was done in black and white. When she mentions the colors involved--we can't see it that way. Otherwise this is a magnificent production!
In 1962 hardly anyone owned a color TV. Only the richest of the rich. In order to reach the masses the program had to be presented in B/W. Back then we had grown up on radio so had vivid imaginations and the ability to see descriptive imagery in our mind's eye, unlike most of today's population who can't function without a phone in their hands and constant external stimulation.
I have seen clips of this tour in color - they must have made some tests or perhaps the entire thing was filmed in color, but broadcast in black and white, which was still the standard in 1962. I remember she was wearing a beautiful dark red color.
Mrs. Kennedy wasn't merely reciting what historians told her. Remember, she organized and steered the committee that decorated the White House, so she was personally knowledge of every piece of furniture, artwork, and decor.
@BellaFirenze Jackie tracked down everything there, of course she had help but every account says she was there daily and made every decision so it's wild to belittle her work that way.
“This wallpaper was printed in France about 1834” (goes on the talk about the scenes) “when was it printed?” (She smiles) “uhm, in the beginning of the 19th century….” Shows how much he was listening…
yes, that touched me somehow because rather than just say 1834 again which could have publicly humiliated him, she thought for a second a rephrased the answer - showed her natural kindness, I believe.
If my memory serves me correct, all three networks carried this special, with CBS and NBC simulcasting it and ABC showing it a few days later, with the Kennedys insisting that one of the three networks carry it on a delayed basis a few days later so those who missed the first showing could catch a repeat a few nights later.
She was a very beautiful and elegent woman and liked by everyone. JACKIE and JOHN F. KENNEDY WE'RE A very beautiful Couple. I can still remember when he was assesinated it was the saddest day of all time. A Big lose for the country 🇺🇸. May their souls Rest In Peace. 🙏🙏😔😪😒
She's one of my favorite first ladies. She was heavily slept on with people thinking she was all looks. She had a very fine and extensive education growing up, was a heavy reader and her parents exposed her to some of the best places and most famous people in Europe and Asia before she even met John. A real treasure of a woman and knowledge. I'm glad she was heavily filmed to get her knowledge out on film. John used her as his buffer with world leaders not only because of her graciousness, but because she had grown up around powerful people and had an ease with them.
What strikes me is that the tone and cadence of her voice are so much like her first cousin, little Edith Beale. It's such a haunting sound and a reminder that sometimes people from the very same family that start out with the same exact history can end up in such completely opposite. When she was younger, Edith Bealle was considered one of the most beautiful and eligible debutants of her day. Somehow, listening and watching Jacqueline Kennedy and this video make her story even more haunting and pathetic. Of course, in their own ways, they both suffered so very much, just in different ways. But I think there can be no doubt that at some point, Edith had a mental breakdown. It's really weird because they both seem so very fragile to me in their own ways. But somehow, Jackie found a way to persevere, but edith did not.
I watched Jeopardy last night and one of the categories was First Ladies. "This first lady gave a tour of the white house and can be seen in full on UA-cam" "Who is Jackie Kennedy?" Trippy because I just watched it on cable tv. And here is UA-cam recommending it to me a day later, creepy...
This was the first TV program that I remember. I was 4 years old. My mother sat there fascinated. I kept waiting to see JFK. I remember being disappointed when he didn't "show up." ;) I can't believe I actually remember that.
Her voice is soothing and relaxes me. I wonder if this is really the way she “naturally” spoke or did she force her self to speak low, slow and breathy.
What a revelation to learn that the entire interior of the White House was gutted to bring structural integrity to the structure during Truman's presidency. Seeing that steel skeleton inside the outer walls is a great lesson in American history. The preface narrated by Jackie Kennedy was a wonderful touch that can still inspire our deeper appreciation for this great symbol of our national government.
Jacqueline was elegant, graceful and amicable for being an icon of the ladies. Moreover she created the case for women In perusing independence and happiness. She presented incomparable courage and strength after the assassination ❤ she was long missing as a legendary figure ❤
I agree completely. Had CBS switched to color when JFK was still President like they should have, we'd be able to see color news coverage of his assassination and funeral.
So impressive to see the upholstery room, what a great idea to be sure of the quality and keep an eye on the treasures. I wonder what that room is used for today? It would sure be refreshing to have a First Lady someday who takes up an interest in our history as Jackie did.
That style, man! That’s why both me & my daughter Isabella are really proud to have our birthdays celebrated in July- the same month with Mrs Kennedy! (BTW my daughter Isabella was born on July 4th 2010 and I was born on July 19th 1979)
When I saw it at the time it was filmed, we had black and white TV. I suppose they could spend time trying to colorize it but I think they wanted to be true to history and show the program as it aired.
Wow. Didn't know they had 16:9 screen ratio cameras back in '62! Seriously...for something this historical, would it have been too hard to NOT post it stretched wide from 1:33?
Thank you for sharing this. This is a great insight into how intelligent Jacqueline was. Besides being fluent in multiple languages, she really understood and enjoyed history. I am a fan of hers because she has such style, she knew how to demonstrate her intelligence without being intimidated, and she came into her own after Ari Onassis’s death.
This viedo footage is why Jackie is the one of the most influential first ladies she was the first to give a tour of the white house , the first to help end segeration , and the first widow to get married after her husband deah ain't no first lady like Jacqueline Kennedy hunny
I read that she smoked continuously off camera between takes the day of the taping and that the director kept asking her to speak up but she made it clear she was speaking as loudly as she could
@@williamkelly8026 thanks for the clarification on the subject and sadly just five years later John Jr died in a plane crash along with his wife and sister in law.
I came to see this archive footage after seeing the film Jackie with Natalie Portman, and as much as I admire Natalie and think she's a fantastic actress, I can see that she didn't do the real Jackie Kennedy complete justice. Natalie exaggerated her accent - particularly during the televised tour of the White House - which in fact was slightly less prominent and more pleasant-sounding.
Jacqueline was so poised and soft spoken. Yet she was highly opinionated and very intelligent. Often working directly with John and sitting in on important meetings. Now that I've listened to her tapes, I have an even deeper respect. She was an amazing woman.

Mrs. John F Kennedy? Did she not have a name or what am I missing?
Jacqueline Kennedy was the epitome of grace & class. Her intelligence is abundantly clear.
This presidency was before my time, but I can tell this is what it should be like.
This is x fabulous and fascinating⭐️✨⭐️
The most elegant first lady ever 👏👏👏👏👏
What is her accent? People don’t talk like this anymore unfortunately. I love listening to her talk.
Trans Atlantic accent, common among upper class folks and the well educated of the first half of the 20th century. It's elegant and timeless.
She had such grace.
Too bad the background music is so loud and annoying!!!
I wish i could watch this in its entirety
I found the entire broadcast on UA-cam.
Excellent.
Jacqueline Kennedy was young only 64 years old when she died
They were all too young… I just found out George Magazine is back they even got a website
Jimmy Carter was older than Jackie Kennedy so she would be 94 years old.
Please show the whole program!
That style, man! That’s why both me & my daughter Isabella are really proud to have our birthdays celebrated in July- the same month with Mrs Kennedy! (BTW my daughter Isabella was born on July 4th 2010 and I was born on July 19th 1979)
Be careful providing dates of birth on the internet
Wish I saw this in color
When I saw it at the time it was filmed, we had black and white TV. I suppose they could spend time trying to colorize it but I think they wanted to be true to history and show the program as it aired.
@@charleneandrle-olson3099 but the fashion of Mrs. K is fascinating
CBS did not have color broadcasts until 1965.
Wow. Didn't know they had 16:9 screen ratio cameras back in '62!
Seriously...for something this historical, would it have been too hard to NOT post it stretched wide from 1:33?
Thank you for sharing this. This is a great insight into how intelligent Jacqueline was. Besides being fluent in multiple languages, she really understood and enjoyed history. I am a fan of hers because she has such style, she knew how to demonstrate her intelligence without being intimidated, and she came into her own after Ari Onassis’s death.
Thank you Mrs, John F, Kennedy.
Sophisticated history of White House,
This viedo footage is why Jackie is the one of the most influential first ladies she was the first to give a tour of the white house , the first to help end segeration , and the first widow to get married after her husband deah ain't no first lady like Jacqueline Kennedy hunny
At 0:04 they should have said Mrs. Jacqueline Kennedy
I read that she smoked continuously off camera between takes the day of the taping and that the director kept asking her to speak up but she made it clear she was speaking as loudly as she could
Did she die from lung cancer in 94' 9:50 ?
@James Fracasse No as I understand it Non Hodgkins Lymphoma
@@williamkelly8026 thanks for the clarification on the subject and sadly just five years later John Jr died in a plane crash along with his wife and sister in law.
@James Fracasse sir thank you. Yes the family has had too many tragedies
@@williamkelly8026 again thanks for your insight on this,a happy memorial day weekend to you and your family, cheers 🥂 mate!
She should have been a museum curator.
Wonderful
Una gran mujer.
Inolvidable.
La maldad de la politiqueria le arrebató a su marido....
😢😢😢😢😢😢
Can we fix the aspect ratio? Should be 4:3.
Rest in peace Jackie Kennedy❤ 9:58
Where's the rest??
It’s Mrs. John F. Kennedy!
I came to see this archive footage after seeing the film Jackie with Natalie Portman, and as much as I admire Natalie and think she's a fantastic actress, I can see that she didn't do the real Jackie Kennedy complete justice. Natalie exaggerated her accent - particularly during the televised tour of the White House - which in fact was slightly less prominent and more pleasant-sounding.
