- Senator John F. Kennedy's wife Jacqueline Kennedy on the program ''Home''. Host Arlene Francis tracked Mrs. Kennedy's daily rounds as a dutiful Georgetown housewife.
I love how polite and intelligent Jackie was. Her soft and calmed voice is so so sweet to listen. RIP Jackie and John.
she had so much class,beauty,grace.one of most iconic woman ever.
A total gentleman and lady
Some remarks here about Jackie are unkind. You have to remember, she was quite shy and being a private person did not enjoy the limelight. She put herself out there in support of her husband, who she loved dearly. She also happened to be an extremely intelligent person, well read, poised and spoke several languages fluently.
Oh, another ass heard from. Some day the mother ship will return and bring you all back to your planet and peace will finally reign on earth. Looking forward to that day.
***** "Alas, he's mad."
***** what a douche bag!!! lolololololol

I'm sure someone in your mental home, perhaps the head nurse, could help you there.
Those were the days of elegance and class. Now our culture is in the sewer.
Melania is the classiest ex prostitute I've seen. How dare you!
Terry Mills ...and more so, these days, as your answer is four years old as of now...:)!
okay boomer
Terry Mills
And it’s all by design ... 😣
Now 🇺🇸 has .......... First Lady .......taran 🎶🎵 Melania 😁
I met her, John Jr & Caroline several times. Humble, kind, and lovely people!

A friend of mine met her many years ago (probably the ‘80’s) in NYC and said that Jackie was very polite, but my friend knew that she didn’t really want to be bothered talking to a complete stranger (and, of course, it’s hard to blame her).
What was Jackie like?
How?
Such class and elegance. How far we have fallen. Thank you for this beautiful video.
He was right next to her the entire time! Haha, I hadn't noticed. I was so surprised when they moved the camera to show him
Nallely Med me, too! It was like, “Where did you come from?”
Having been almost an adult at the time the world lost Kennedy I find this footage absolutely exquisite. Thank you for your collecting.
Arlene Francis was such a multi faceted person. She was a marvelous singer dancer actress interviewer journalist TV host wife and mother. She gave wonderful parties apparently with a superb mix of celebrities artists and politicians. I love watching anything she is in as I do President and Mrs. Kennedy. This program and ones like it were very popular in this era. Especially as most women were homemakers and these shows were daytime viewing.
This was a very difficult task for Jackie Kennedy, she was a very private person and married a politician. She became more comfortable as time went on with being in the public eye. Jackie loved JFK and did everything to help him politically and personally. She was only 31 years old when Kennedy took office and was widowed at 34 under horrific circumstances. May they both Rest In Peace.
So much class and elegance back then.
Love them both!!
Such inspiring women!!
Thank you for posting this. I grew up admiring both of them. The wonderful walk she did around neighborhood was a treat.
The words he spoke at the end could certainly be good advice for the citizens of the U.S.A. today.
If anything should go viral, It's his last words.
Am I the only one that thinks Jackie is super adorable? Xd
She was a gem! :D
Not at all! I adored her and we share a birthday. Jackie was amazing.
KaitDoe where have you been to ask a obvious question, Jackie was adored the world over!
No, no you are not.
You are too.
Lol Arlene goes all giggly when Jack comes on...I don't blame her I think I would have too!!!
She was simping on JFK
She treated Jackie badly in this interview. But jackie handled her well and was exceedingly gracious.
Same!
It is a shame John and Caroline grew up without their father.
Yes, elite ill fated family.
Jackie's style is so elegant
Loved Jackie and Arlene Francis, especially when the later was a panelist on "What's My Line," hosted by John Daly on CBS. Brings back good memories.
Jaqueline Kennedy and Arlene Francis on the screen together makes it very enjoyable viewing for this man. And, Senator John F. Kennedy was very handsome and well spoken.
In my opinion, the 50's were the pinnacle of American society. A time when elegance, intelligence and manners ruled the day.
I was born in 1980, the 50s have always fascinated me In a very weird way...the 50s to me are creepy or maybe eerie is a better word.
It seems like it happened on another planet or something, a place in time that is unlike any other decade.
I agree also that it was the shinning moment of Americana
I am from India ..obsessed with American culture and history, an institution on JFK's life and that of a few other presidents. I think American and world culture went down the gutter in the mid 2000s. Even as recent as the 90s things were fine. The internet destroyed society. Fast broadband, social media and instant streaming were the death knell. 70s and 80s America were also grea
Yeah, don't forget that darn pesky RACISM..but other than that yeah! ..SMH clueless pos.
Arlene & Jackie.. doesn't get any better then this! Thank you for posting! Wish more episodes of "Home" would show up..such an interesting program!
LITTLE DID THE NATION AT THAT TIME KNOW THAT CAROLINE WAS ON THE WAY. JACQUELINE KENNEDY WAS A LADY OF STYLE, CLASS AND ELEGANCE.
Janice Rogers confusing comment
I knew.
@@BuckyBrown-lt4ry this documentary is not about your mother. Pay attention.
She was very reserved, private, elegant, and a lady.
Unbelievable that there was once a time when she could walk a dog with no paparazzi.
@B C ...Well, she wasn''t exactly walking along unnoticed. Don't forget she had the _Home_ camera crew following her the whole time!
She was not yet recognized as the icon of Camelot until Jack was elected President.
What a treasure.. thank you for posting.
Two of the most incredibly intelligent and stunningly beautiful women who ever lived. Wonderfully sophisticated. Such a joy to see them together.
I have this profound sadness seeing this....sad that he was killed. With all his now known faults, I still wish he'd lived out his life. Which makes me wonder how our world's path would have been altered.
Arlene is truly trying to "get blood out of stone" with Jackie....Jackie seems so guarded with her words while on camera...which is the sign of a very smart woman.
Please, post more of this HOME series...never knew of it....Arlene is STILL a national treasure....beautiful, bright...lovely!
And yet she was a journalist-editor and expected the same thing from her clients as Arlene. It's kind of a contradiction that I've never understood about her.
I wish classy women on TV would come back in style.
Jackie totally lovely and beguiling. They were a beautiful couple. May they Rest In Peace. 🙏🙏
Mid 20th-century American glamour, the Kennedy's AND Arlene! Fabulous.
Arlene was friendly and conversational. It's nice to see this great film.
What a treat to see Arlene Francis & Jacqueline Kennedy Onassis together. Two of the most beautiful, classiest, and most elegant women of that era.
JFK looks like a teenager here. By 1963, just 6 years later, he had aged enormously.
Poor Jack always looked young and thin because of his illness. Even before he became president, LBJ would make fun of young Jack because of the way he looked.
Fer Abra it’s probably from testosterone he took to look healthy during his campaign cause Nixon called him out about his medical condition
@@coolstory6193 Someone should've called out Nixon, for his psychological condition!
@@coolstory6193 yeah they broke into his medical office and stole his medical documents to expose him I guess. We all know Nixon and his people like to break into offices.
she was a heavy smoker which accelerates aging
Lovely from beginning to end. Interesting how she did such a delightful tour of the White House later as First Lady. "Her voice was ever soft, gentle and low. An excellent thing in woman." Shakespeare, King Lear.
I love Mrs Kennedy . She was polite, smart. She was singular, unique.May rest in Peace. God bless you!
Notice that Jackie doesn't say too much about cooking ~ they had a cook! It is lovely to see them...they were so young...
Very handsome dude.
this is a gorgeous piece of history. thanks for posting!
I work in Georgetown! I seem to walk through the parts/areas she's walking! I sort of knew that I walk through "history" but I now wonder exactly how much history that is! So cool!
She always being very sweet and calm and charming
Jackie looks beautiful. She is pregnant with Caroline here.
***** Jackie had children and was pregnant a few times. She did not have endometriosis. She IS pregnant here with Caroline.
I saw in one of the documentaries done last year for the 50th anniversary that she had suffered a miscarriag earlier in 1963 and the Texas trip was her first outing since the loss. Added more poignancy to the events for me.
NouCoo She lost a baby boy Patrick in August 1963. The baby was born premature and only lived a couple of days.
***** Do the math!! lol!
Stop looking at women's bellies.
I love how jack says AHLENE :)
There's a lot of opinions flying around here which I will not comment upon. My only comment is that I appreciate being able to see something of them, when they still had their futures ahead of them, before history stepped in.
She is pregnant with Caroline - born Nov.1957 - at that time, she may not have been even sure she was pregnant yet.
John had great hair!!!
This is such an interesting glimpse into JFK's incredible political growth, JFK and Jackie's early relationship and the era in general. I've recently become intrigued by JFK and have been reading several books on the subject and this 'Home' appearance shows how nervous and uncomfortable they were--even JFK whom we remember as the idealistic and charismatic speaker. JFK didn't like PDA and they were very private but here you see how they are so separate. Jackie's distaste of sharing their personal life and trying to create a certain image of being "typical' yet still ideal Americans is palpable (she stated in her yearbook that she didn't want to be a housewife) and JFK is only confident while answering political questions.
Jackie said the White House years were the best in her marriage and it's easy to see why: over 6 yrs. they melded together and became a stronger couple and stronger people. Arlene's questions regarding Jackie's traditional wife/woman duties (do you cook? make him breakfast? run errands? press his suits?) show how much things have changed!!
It's hysterical how Arlene keeps pointing out the cheesiness of the 'Daily Routine' spot: where is everyone in Georgetown, it seems desolate. Do you know the cleaner's name? Do you ever have someone go with you? Are you on good terms with the butcher, does he give you more?
Agree.
What a nice interview!! Love Arlene too.
Thank you so much for posting this AMAZING insight into this fabulous couple before they became world famous …… so sad to think he only had a few years left to live
Haha this is kind of awkward because Arlene is trying so hard to keep filling the silences, because it's her job. But Jackie doesn't have much to say, so she just answers "yes" or "no" and then Arlene scrambles around trying to think of another question. Arlene's awkwardness is very apparent at this moment when she coughs 😅6:08
Arlene is a stereotypical rude mother in law in her intrusiveness. Do you know the names of the tradesmen?very good with a can opener!
A wonderful video. Captures a nicer time. Thank you for posting it!
Interesting to note Jackie on her "casual" morning walk is wearing a brand new deep red wool Pierre Cardin designer suit made in Paris, later worn for official duties in the White House. This is actually a famous suit, now owned by the JFK Library & Museum and lent in recent years to other institutions for public display.
Also interesting to note Arlene looking a bit frumpy here -- she soon adopted more stylish hair and dress styles and looked fantastic in the early to mid 1960s on "What's My Line." Younger than she looked here at almost age 50. Jackie was 27 here, so almost half Arlene's age. In fact, she and Jackie's mother were exactly the same age.
Arlene was a phenom back in the day. Nice to see Mr. and Mrs. Kennedy so young too
This was awesome! Thanks for posting:)
Great woman and person, she went through a lot of heart break 💔
I can't help it, I still love and will always admire her.
I found it interesting when JFK talked about the increasing responsibility of the vice president since he may have to succeed the president at any time, since 6 years later, his VP would have to succeed him.
Such a beautiful time. Such beautiful people on the cusp of greatness … and sadness. Fascinating to watch.
Senator Kennedy talking about the importance of the vice president who may need to step in if....
The most negative and critical people on here probably haven't accomplished anything meaningful in their sad lives.
+Bob Sewvello Well said.
What have YOU accomplished?
Eric Moore Please also answer your same question Eric. Tell us about all your accomplishments. I'm very interested to hear about them. It probably parallels the Kennedys in many, many ways.
Bob, I agree 100%.
@@billgish3424 I paid for my internet account.
Interviewers were kind - Arlene was excellent!!
Rest in peace Jacqueline Bouvier Kennedy Onassis.
♾🙏❤️🕯️🕊️♾
How sad to remember that that special couple had only 6 more years before he was assassinated. What would they have done differently had they known, not how he was killed, but only that their time was so short.
Such a great vid!
What "claahss" we all had back then.
Thanks so much for these posts! I just subscribed!
I am watching this video in our times of enormous conflicts and president Kennedy could have been talking to each of us about our own responsibilities as citizens of the country and from what I see we are just a big failure. I hate the stupidity of division and the horrible lies and how little we are caring for the well being of our country.
She's probably in her first trimester in her pregnancy with Caroline just seven months after giving birth to a stillborn baby girl they would've named Arabella.
Jackie seemed so maternal and loved kids.
Interesting trivia - this was April 3, 1957. Caroline was born later that year on November 27, 1957.
Everyone adored Jackie. I am Canadian and loved her. And the gracious,lovely Arlene Francis.
jacquelyn said he'd be gone for weeks, i want to tell her " girl the jump off is keeping him busy "
Lovely video & it’s interesting how her voice is stronger not so breathy .She had so much to deal with !
Love the video
She looks so chic, polished, classic and modern-- even by today's standards! Way ahead of her time! Especially in the frumpy 1950's.
This is AWESOME Thankyou for the video.....
Perhaps it sad to say but this is the first time I’ve heard Jacqueline‘s voice.
Two classy ladies
Ohhhh have we fallen from grace...listening to Kennedy.with his brilliant grace. Intelligence....LOOK where we are now.....a human who POUT..BULLYS..LIES( thats an understatement).a cheating grifter-draftdodger.......How we have FALLEN.....it was magical to see and hear them.......thank you
“I think that if all of us recognize that we have a responsibility as well as rights and duties as well as privileges, especially in a country like the United States where we, all of us, have the final responsibility for whatever action we take, if we recognize that we have been given a great country, and we have been most fortunate, and if all of us practice the virtues of good citizenship and self restraint, which I think we can do and what we have done throughout our history, then I think we can look forward to our future, all of us, young and old, office holders and citizens, with a good deal of confidence and hope.”
Every person in today’s I-Me-My world, including every politician, would benefit by listening and adhering to these words from Senator Kennedy.
Thank you, HelmerReenberg, for the many sacrifices you have made in putting together your channel.
Two of my favorite women of the 1950s and 1960s.
SUCH A LOVELY PRESENCE. THANKFUL THAT WE HAD HER. NOT GIRL. A LADY😍
The culture was more refined and dignified back then. There were higher standards of public dress and behavior/decorum across the board not just for the upper class like here.
She sure screwed up getting involved with those Kennedy's
Yeah I feel sorry for her
I had forgotten how neat men's haircuts were then
Rip mr president JFK
there's a car Georgetown is waking up
At about the 4:05 mark, Arlene asks, "Have you 3 gables on your house?" I was expecting Arlene to then quip, "We have three Gabels at _my_ house!" LOL! (Her husband, Martin Gabel, son, Peter Gabel, and herself, occasionally known as Mrs. Gabel, even though she did not use Martin's last name professionally). Perhaps it was Jackie's "that's not my house" answer that made her decide not to say it, or maybe I'm imbuing her with more of her _What's My Line?_ co-panelist, Bennett Cerf's punny humor than she really had! ;)
Precious Memories. ⚘🎚
Sure it was a beautiful morning for America, to watch the lovely Presidential Couple.
Airline Francis is adorable too.
Sad to think, they died😥 I never forget that awful day, when President John Kennedy was shot...
It was very sad day in Israel too. People were quiet and upset, as they listened for hours, to the radio, read the newspapers, and looked at the painful pictures, of the US President, being murdered...
So tragic how cruel was the fate of other members of family Kennedy.
RIP
🌲🌿🍀🙏
My Wifes Grandfather was a Cameraman on Arlene Francis show,
6:35 Jfk looks so innocent here
Love this clip but I am certain Jackie actually hated politics.
The interviewer was so sarcastic and mean to Jackie but Jackie handled her very well.
I just love her voice.
Can we talk abput thr cameraman? How the hell is he following Jackie all around Georgetown lmao
The world I was born into. Well, a month before.
What a Soft And Candide Voice Jackie Had...!! Wasn ´t Surprised when She´s referred as the Most Glamorous First Lady of Most Times...!!!
You got that right!
Those were the days!
Today 90 percent of the audience wouldn’t know the meaning of half the words he used…
This would have been some months before Caroline's birth. I wonder if there was any news of it or kept private.
It’s so sad that Washington is tainted now 🍚🥢🥢🥢🥢🍚🍚🍚🥢🥢🥢
Boy! The world sure has changed.
"self restraint"... Really John... really?
She was a first class whore.
