I saw lana at town hall NYC in 1975. She was 54 and OMG she did not disappoint. After her movie clips she came on stage with twirl of her skirt in dramatic fashion real Hollywood golden age style. What an entrance smile and laugh. Thunderous applause of course.
Thank you so much for posting this! It's a real treat to hear Ricardo Montalban's voice, as he tells of his special friendship with Lana Turner. Both are dearly missed. Will TCM enable Canadian viewers to watch at some point?
Lana was a great beauty and a very fine actress: The Postman ALways Rings Twice, The Bad and the Beautiful, Peyton Place, Imitation of Life, Love Has Many Faces and her greatest prformnce Madame X.
Montalban may have played a Latin heartthrob and lover, but from what I gather, I don't think he ever cheated on his wife. He was very loyal and devout!
Rest in peace and belated birthday greetings to Lana Turner 2 8. My favorite will always be imitation of life. Peyton place is the second. Her mother roles were relatable and helpful
Ricardo montalban,s was one sexy man and that's voice I remember him from fantasy Island didn't no he had such a great movie career he did not disappoint . 5:52
"The Postman Always Rings Twice" was her best film. John Garfield brought out the best in her. I've read that Lana didn't want him as her costar but later realized she was mistaken.
From a maternal grandfather, there is still a possibility that Ricardo Montalbán is my distant relative. Because I like the acting and I truly admire him.
Interesting choice of words: inquietud. She also had a yearning. I guess that just like Ava Gardner, Lana Turner might have felt a bit self-conscious about her abilities as an actress compared to performers with stage training. However, in the movies that I've seen of her in the original English (I'm a Spanish speaker and all of these movies were dubbed.), like Peyton Place, The Bad and the Beautiful and The Postman Always Rings Twice, she was pretty good and as Montalbán said, she stood on her own next to Tracy, Gable, Rooney and Garfield.
Lana Turner & Recardo Montalban were good in "Latin Lovers" The movie was pure fluff, but beautiful. A movie you could enjoy without the fear of dirty words or sexual B. S.. MGM knew how to make those wonderful Technicolor movie that seems to be a thing of the past. I've always enjoyed Recardo in "Fantasy Island" on TV. That guy had class with a capitol "C". And I didn't think that Lana Turner was the Worlds greatest actress, but compared to the lady stars of today Lana was wonderful. She had a lot of class too, even if her lifestyle didn't show it all of tge time. She was sort of a victim of unfortunate events. True Lana bought a lot of it upon herself, but she like most of it was only a human being. Rest in peace Dear Lana & Recardo. You will never be forgotten.
I all ways loved Lana Turner she was a goddess and Avery great actress her life off screen was just as colorful sometimes great beauty can be a curse to good to ever be forgotten rip I love tcm takes me back to my child hood watching all these great star when Hollywood was Hollywood thank you tmc ❤ 5:52
I just watched the movie they were In together.she was beautiful. Ricardo montelbon...was handsome and I loved him in the weekly show ...was it called paradice island
@@pepelemoko01 He was born with a condition called arteriovenous malformation (a/k/a AVM), which was aggravated by injuries sustained while filming "Across the Wide Missouri" (a horse accident). He said in one interview he'd been told if he reached age 30 without the AVM 'manifesting,' he'd have been all right. And Nicholas Meyer, who directed "Wrath of Khan," said he never mentioned his injuries. If you look close, though, he does have a limp in his step. But, my goodness, such an amazing man!
I have a one dollar bill with Lana Turner signature on it I don't no if it's worth anything to me it's worth a lot she signed it to a soilder a the canteen Hollywood canteen 5:52
So, blondie could do a love scene with a hispanic, but a black man would have been run out of town on a rail. I love Classic Hollywierd, but I'm disgusted by it also. ( Same as Hollywierd, today, when you think about it.)
She became a BORN AGAIN CHRISTIAN. See you in heaven, Sister Lana. That is the MOST IMPORTANT THING that I can remember about her. As the scripture says....What does it profit a man( or woman) to gain the whole world but lose his ( her ) soul or WHAT can a person give in exchange for his/her soul? Our soul is our prized possession; give your soul to JESUS today...for tomorrow may be TOO LATE.
The golden tones of Ricardo Montalbán. Rich corinthian leather!
Ricardo Montalbán was amazing too. What a great voice!

Lana was magnificent and gorgeous in the Bad and the Beautiful.
Love this tribute! Adore Ricardo and Lana.
I worship Lana Turner, completely entranced by her, such a great actress. The naysayers were jealous of her beauty, talent, poise, & aura.
How sweet. Almost cried.
Thank the hair, makeup, and clothing department.
"The Postman Always Rings Twice" was her best film. John Garfield brought out the best in her. I've read that Lana didn't want him as her costar but later realized she was mistaken.
She was amazing in bad and the beautiful the postman always ring twice and the imitation of life. I wish to be a great actress like her.

Fantasy Island
He had a very bad back from childhood and was in terrible pain, but never complained, and was a devout Catholic .

They always had a spark between them !
What a classy pair. Lovely video.
Elegant gentleman!!!!!
And once again I am reminded of how much I absolutely love Ricardo Montalbán and Lana Turner...and can't stand Red Skelton.
A real movie star
He is pronouncing her name WRONG.... ITS SOUNDS LIKE LAHNA NOT LAANA
lol my names is Lana turner and someone told me of this actress
Lana in her book, she said not so flattering things for him.
The ride with Lana Turner would be smoother in a Cordoba.
Lana Turner was like Marilyn Monroe before Marilyn Monroe.
I have 2 pictures of her on my wall one is a publicity still she must b only 16 years old ♥️
Yeah, he was “on Lana Turner” a lot.
Why not? Just about everybody else was!
What was the Spanish word he used about her?
Sinatra in Fiesta 1947. 😮🎉🎉🎉 WGNJMNFAS
So, blondie could do a love scene with a hispanic, but a black man would have been run out of town on a rail. I love Classic Hollywierd, but I'm disgusted by it also. ( Same as Hollywierd, today, when you think about it.)
She sold herself short. Too bad.
She became a BORN AGAIN CHRISTIAN. See you in heaven, Sister Lana. That is the MOST IMPORTANT THING that I can remember about her.

Amen 🙏🏽
It's good she became a born again Christian! Amen!
