Lee Grant is one of those great examples of the phrase, “a woman with a story to tell”. She has LIVED a life, and her long experience is one of those needed to avoid repeating history.
It sounded very much like she wanted to talk more about Sharon Tate and what it was like to work with her and get to know her, but the interviewer cut her off and redirected her which was VERY disappointing. The other leading ladies in Valley of The Dolls all became friends with Sharon. Barbara Parkins was a bridesmaid in Sharon’s wedding. I thought the juxtaposition of Lee Grant and Tate on screen made for an interesting chemistry in the film since they were so different. Tate was far less experienced and had great things to say about observing and learning from Lee Grant. It would have been interesting to hear more of what Lee had to say.
a great talent who came back from 12 years in the wilderness.
Lee provides valuable insight here about the blacklisting and how it was enabled and the effects, short and long term, on those affected.
I read Lee Grants book and it was wonderful. What an incredible, fearless woman. VERY good writer,actress, and judging from her interview..........speaker. I just love her work.
Lee really looks like a different person now (i heard her mention on another recent interview that she had her first facelift at age 30 ) but my goodness she is so spry and vibrant to be close to 90 years old
I Love Lee Grant , & her daughter Dinah Manoff , she could play funny very well.
I like Lee Grant but this is very misleading, there really isn't much at all regarding her role in VALLEY OF THE DOLLS.
Loved her on "The Big Valley"
That was one of my favorite episodes!
Love Lee Grant .one of the best bad girls of the 1960s
I'll go heat up the lasagna.

It took me years to figure out that line. It'll take me another fortnight to figure out the lasagna lie :-)
😂😂😂
LOL!!
Lee Grant was 90 here I believe.Can you imagine that?Sharp as a tack.
When they say Eddie Rickenbacker re the play 'The Captains and the Kings' (22:07), they mean Hyman Rickover.
Fascinating interview.
I have always had a HUGE crush on her.
What has she done to her face, omg Lee Grant was stunning.
She was stunning. However, people continue to age no matter what they've had done. A face-lift only lasts a decade or so. Cosmetic surgery can make you look better or different but never younger.
I know she’s had cosmetic surgery because she’s admitted to it. But now, it looks like a lot of fillers too. Her face looks swollen. Shes very fit and sharp of mind ,though.
on tcm on bueno Sera mrs.Campbell.. the host states that Lee grant had violent arguments on both of their films together
She keeps talking about a play involving a "nuclear submarine" and Eddie Rickenbacker (the WWI American fighter ace). Does she mean Hyman Rickover, the father of the US nuclear navy ??
Yes. The interviewer got it wrong too (22:07).
Wow, very interesting!
Ahe was 90 here
ur my fave star , author, and director.....love ya
honey u look good !
one of the gr8s...
Which one of her documentaries were made into a movie? I've only known of one and that was the one she mentioned, but she said most of them were. 'Down and Out in America' wasn't, I don't think, nor was 'What Sex Am I?'
Down and Out in America was dramatized into "No Place Like Home"
Way too much plastic surgery.
Out acted Everyone in airport 77
Lee mentioning Palestine was 🤍💜
her voice is good but she is unrecognizable
Don’t even RECOGNIZE her
Airport 77
i was just a kid when i fell in love with her when she played 'selina' in 'payton place' - thought she was the beautiful bad girl from the wrong side of the tracks...in fact i named my daughter, lee, after her...can't believe she looks like this now - very bad plastic surgery....it shatters my memory of her...shame!!!
Stella Chernak was her character's name on "Peyton Place." But more importantly, I agree. She was great!
The 92nd Street Liberal Y.
Yes? And?
@@rrrich7 Nobody should go there.
It's filled with pushy uppa' west side liberal jews. Very angry, Hillary Bitch types if you know what I mean.
Stuart Lee I like them a hell of a lot more than you
Too much plastic surgery. Lee why'd u do it?
Acting is a vain profession. That's why plastic surgery is common. Especially older actors.
I saw her right here on YT- it might be still up- carrying her own luggage at the airport at age 90.
gee
Yes very misleading - where is VOTD??
Very self absorbed interview, midly interesting if I was was conducting a very specific thesis.
Hmmmm, when people are sitting for an interview where they are expected to talk about their career and their life I don’t really see how “self absorbed” can be avoided. But maybe i’m wrong. Maybe she should have focused more on other people she worked with and people she cared about?
I would say unguarded. Some older stars (Olivia De Havilland comes to mind) still could not drop the movie star facade and be honest about anything during interviews. Lee has always been an open book.
That's Lee Grant? I wonder if she sued her plastic surgeon?
She looked great in her 40's and 50's. I wish she had just accepted growing older. Look at Judi Dench or Vanessa Redgrave aging gracefully. Maybe it's an American thing.
@@johnpjones182 Many hollywood stars had face lifts. Some look horrible after having a face lift. Funny lady Phyllis Diller even said when she went to the doctors again for another face lift. The doctors rejected Miss.Diller stating: There is nothing left to lift off of her face.
Lee Grant was AND IS a RED.
Gawd are you stuck in the past
Get a life...
