My aunt and uncle worked for Eve Arden and her husband at their home in Southern California in the 1960’s and 70’s and absolutely adored her. She was warm, gracious and funny - she became a dear friend who stayed in touch even after my aunt and uncle retired. I love her films - always the strong, supportive, quick-witted friend who never lets anyone get the better of her - a wonderful role model for women even today. She’s timeless!
I've always liked Eve Arden and at 62 years old I still do.
One of the great character actors who made those wonderful movies even better
Have always loved Eve Arden. Fascinating to hear her comments on Joan Crawford, I sense she wanted to be honest but also not to hurt the reputation of a star who had passed and could not defend herself.
I saw her again in "Cover Girl" the other night, and delighted as always in her wonderfully expressed talents and skill. Does anybody NOT like Eve Arden?
No I’ve always loved her!
Lucy Ricardo, after that incident at the Brown Derby where Eve took one look at Mrs Ricardo, gave an exasperated look, and walked on by. Lucy took that slight out on poor Bill Holden minutes later.
She was great in her wise-cracking dialogue screens. I loved her as Our Miss Brooks on the radio in the 1950's
My favorite show. I was just listening to some of those episodes a few hours ago. I never get tired of it.
I listen to OTR (old time radio) via Alexa! Our Miss Brooks is a favourite of mine.
She was amazing in Grease...
Always loved watching her. She also played Maude's aunt in one episode.
Always loved Eve Arden, glad she was chosen to be in the movie GREASE, she was perfect!
Nobody could deliver a one liner better than Eve Arden.
How can you not love Eve Arden?
Thanks. This was a good interview. I appreciate that the usual celebrity gossip was just limited to a few questions and she got to talk so much about her films and directors. She had such a good memory and such a sense of wit and wisdom.
a legendary, classy, down to earth woman. i have always adored her.
Eve Arden is the epitome of class, grace and professionalism- Eve was magnificent in Grease 😊
Eve Arden passed away ten years after this at 82 years of age. Her unique voice made her a favorite comic foil in radio all kinds of movies (nominated for an Oscar for her role in "Mildred Pierce" with Joan Crawford.) She had no trouble finding work, usually cast as "the wise-cracking, fast-talking friend." Such a character would find a place in movies across the range from the Marx Brothers' "At the Circus" to Preminger's "Anatomy of a Murder."
This was a great treat.. thanks
Absolutely adore Eve Arden, what a fabulous character actress. Don’t know of anyone today who could match her special humour. ❤❤
Wonderful, fabulous, georgeous, beautiful, brilliant character actress ❤❤❤
Love Eve Arden. Very underrated
Always loved Eve Arden even as a kid, just AMAZING. They don't make 'em like that anymore, sad!
A great, fun actress ... fantastic in "Mildred Pierce". I always thought it was wonderful how, when we first went to the film "Grease" ... there she still was, as witty as ever!
Eve Arden is a phenomenon. I'm old enough to have seen "Our Miss Brooks" (and as a kid, I loved it) but a little young to have seen many of her movie roles and none of her Broadway. I, of course, was too young to have an informed opinion of her as an actress. She portrayed the teacher I always wished i had, somewhere in my schooling. I assumed she was basically playing herself. She wasn't! She was totally in character doing a kind of Schick and she was quite brilliant in breathing life into that character/. I didn't realize how brilliant until your interview with her--and WHAT a career she has had--and by the looks of things, pretty much on HER terms. She also looks GREAT! I hope she reads some of these comments. I know a few celebs and most just don't have time to respond to their fan base.
Eve Arden was one of my favorite all time actors/comedians! She was fabulous! So sadly missed.😢❤. Sh was fantasic in the television sit/com: The Mothers in Law. 🤣😆😂❤.
What an elegant presence. ❤❤❤❤
What a special treat! I have loved Eve Arden forever. She is always pure gold and this is the best interview of her I have ever seen. Thank you so much! I am subscribing and hope for some more of the same good quality. THANK YOU for the ever lovely Eve Arden.
Great interview. Eve Arden was so much a part of what I watched growing up. She was a gem.💎
From Australia, 2024, grew up watching her and loved her great wit and personality.
Thanks so so much for this
Eve was always an asset to any film. She was distinct from all others. She had stage persona. You either have it or you don't.
I do like these old Hollywood cozy and beyond the spotlights interviews. Very evocative.
I could listen to Eve all day.
LOVED HER
Watching this before Eve’s birthday. April 30
Ive watched so many movies bec EVE was in them a true STAR ❤❤❤❤
It was interesting what she thought of Christina Crawfords book .
8:40 "I do know there is a great deal of truth to it," she says. What exactly is she referring to, though? What does she know?? Was it a specific moment where Joan was perhaps reprimanding Christina or Christopher in front of her for something, and now years later thinking back, Eve jumps right to Joan was as written in the book MD.
@@Garsons-oq4lh call her
Marvelous raconteur.
This is a fantastic interview.
Wonderful, witty and lovely lady. Very much unlike her glib screen persona, she was quiet and devoted to her family.
My Dad loved watching her because she reminded him of my Aunt, his older sister. What a talented woman she was ❤
Great interview! It was sweet of her to back up Christina Crawford a little bit and you could it was hard, especially since Joan had helped get her children.
She did say she can't answer to all the chapters. So nothing Christina wrote in her book can be corroborated. Noone can corroborate specific events she described in her book.
@@Garsons-oq4lh Yes but it's obvious Eve knows there some truth to the stories, and don't get me wrong I'm a Joan fan, but it doesn't mean she didn't have demons.
Eve Arden did so many things well: stage, screen, radio, and television.
Miss Arden was most distinguished. No one could copy her and no one should never even try.
What an intelligent, elegant Lady!!!
I so appreciate her.
I loved Eve Arden in "Mildred Pierce" and of course " Our Miss Brooks"
Great interview!
A GEM! Wonderful interview. Thank you so much for uploading this. Please keep it up.
What a gem! Loved this. Thanks for posting!
As a kid Our Miss Brooks was my favorite radio program.
Fascinating
Our Miss Brooks..
Eve Arden deserves more views. Class act. And the interviewer should have done more research.
72 years old here and still looked about 50. Underrated beauty.
Are you kidding ? The interviewer (Nick Salerno) was incredibly well informed. Did you catch the moment when she made an allusion to a (not particularly well-known film that she’d made with Barbara Stanwyck) and he immediately came up with the name, how startled and impressed she was by the fact that he knew it ?
The interviewer was tops, knew his stuff, and didn't try to impress us with what he knew - or thought he knew. He was very respectful.
I thought he did a solid job. He clearly admired her and her work.
Loved the mothers in law with Kaye ballard
Loved watching this!
Amazing interview. What a treasure is Eve Arden. She’s so unassuming about her talent, I guess it’s because she is a consummate professional.
The only strange remark is what she said about rehearsing five days (Mothers-in-Law) and that it’s took out the spontaneity of the taping for the sitcom. It just doesn’t seem to go with her career in that she always had a specific character and presence onscreen. I think Lucille Ball loved to rehearse to get the props right and to get everything right. And also when you finally do the taping, that’s when acting kicks in. Also, Miss Arden loves the stage and you have to play that part over and over and over for many different audiences. I just thought it was a strange observation on her part regarding the sitcom rehearsal of five days instead of the 2 1/2 days with our Miss Brooks. But what stories!!
She was Queen of the dry humor - always wry.
Amazing interviewer and interview.
Eve made any movie she was in better funner. Every tactful about Joan yet acknowledging what went wrong
I grew up watching Eve in “Our Miss Brooks.” Nobody could deliver a killer wisecrack like she did!
The Mothers In Law show 😜👍🏻👍🏻
Eve Arden's comments about the Mothers-In-Law are very interesting. Her preferred style of work was less rehearsal and more spontaneity. The Mother-In-Law followed the Lucille Ball style of many rehearsals with every move and word planned. The Mother-In-Law was filmed at Desilu studios, by Desi Arnaz's production company with Arnaz as Executive Producer. Creators Madeline Davis and Bob Carroll, Jr. were with I Love Lucy and other Lucy/Desi projects. Seems they dictated a production schedule that wasn't quite compatible with Arden's preferred style.
😂Eve Arden was the most beautiful, and talented artist...
By chance, do you remember any Press Publicity interviews for the movie 'Grease 2' from 1982)))
The Joan Crawford fanatics will hate this interview. Eve and many Hollywood stars knew what Crawford was like, but many were afraid to stand by Christina and offend her fans.
they will still refuse to believe it and attack Eve Arden, calling her a drunk or crazy or unreliable. they've done it already with other actors that witnessed or were aware of the frequent insidious stories of abuse from joan the dragon lady towards those oldest kids.
@@SunsetBoulevard1118:40 "I do know there is a great deal of truth in it," she says. What exactly is she referring to, though? I wonder. What does she know?? Was it a specific moment where Joan was perhaps reprimanding Christina or Christopher in front of her for something, and now years later thinking back, Eve jumps right to Joan was as written in the book MD. Seems too easy.
Joan Crawford was a troubled soul as a result of her problematic formative years.
@@BillyBoy442she worked her way up from nothing to one of the biggest stars at the time where Being a movie star (the 20s-40s) was the most advanced form of living ever. Being a movie star in Joan’s time meant you were bigger than any king or queen. I don’t blame Joan for her issues. And she kept her career alive for fifty years where few others did.
so she confirmed what was about Christana Crawford movie?
No but the movie is not even accurate to the book.
If you can't be an athlete, be an athletic supporter! (......)
did she talk about Joan Crwford?
Starting at 6:45. What you didn't even watch it to see yourself.
@@Garsons-oq4lh i just dont understand the language
At 8:40 Eve looks so uncomfortable agreeing that “there was truth to Mommie dearest”. Firstly because Eve’s generation didn’t write books like Mommie dearest nor air their dirty laundry- that came with the boomers. Also she’s trying to give an honest answer to a very difficult and upsetting series of questions. Allegations of Child abuse are major. Personally I think the truth of Joan is somewhere in the middle.

Ask the bartender at the Lavender Club next time.
Eve is gone so ya can't ask her.
Koan was a criminal
@@SunsetBoulevard111Joan was no criminal come on. Obviously, you have a narrow tunnel view and not looking at everything to get a more wide view of things. Joan was no child shooting Diane Downs was she. Joan could kiss the two oldest kids and you all would say she should be killed.
Ummm 😮 what
‘Personally, I prefer Bugsy Ballou and his musical crew’!
How is she keeping a straight face with that toupee he’s got on? 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😮😮😮😮😮😮😮
It's his natural hair. He's Italian they got a lot of hair.
What an unfortunate haircut on Nick Salerno.
Don't knock it - when a man has that much hair, flaunt it!
"Haircut"!?! That thing is an ear-to-ear-to-forehead-to-neck CARPET!!!
It saddened me, just the sight of that lousy toupée.
It was 1980.
Interesting what she said about believing Joan Crawford's daughter Christina about the abuse she suffered as told in her book (and in the movie) Mommy Dearest. Others have said it was all fiction and written to make money or as Christina's revenge because she was disinherited by Joan after she died. What did Eve Arden see with her own eyes and how close was she to the family (the Crawford kids) that she was able to see some abuse going on? Very interesting. Arden is the only actress I have seen in vids on UA-cam that confirms what Christina said. Most other people do not believe Christina.
There are plenty of videos availability of those in the know who talked about it on later years. Everyone on the Industry knew. Everyone.
@@SunsetBoulevard111Who were all these people? What did they witness exactly? For instance I read Helen Hayes' passages mentioning Christopher and she really says nothing. She doesn't say Joan hit Christopher or what her exact words/body language were for a bigger picture of what transpired.
I think the extent of Eve’s firsthand knowledge of Joan’s mothering comes from seeing how Joan expected her children to act in public. She also knew Joan and knew Joan’s personality which was hyper controlling. I think she extrapolated the rest.
I wonder why she always looks away when she talks?
That’s just her way ❤
She’s trying to recall things that happened 4 decades prior
Eve Arden voice but sure does not look as I remember her
Yes she does.
@@Jasper7182009she looks great here !
Eve one of my favorite lines you delivered in Mildred Pierce referring to Zachary Scott was…No doubt he must have been frightened by a callous at an early age.
OY VEYYYYYYYYY THE RUG ON THAT HOST!!! It looks like it was made by Karastan!!!
It's his natural hair.
