She seems transported to the teenager living through these experiences… so authentic. I’m thankful she has had a long life and that she related her story to the USC Shoah Foundation.
Paulette's story is slightly different from the distressing Auschwitz narratives. She is delightful to listen to, and, the gentleman interviewer is one of the best - he gently guided Paulette through her experiences and helped keep things mostly on track without cutting her off mid-speech as some of the interviewers have been apt to do. Thank you.
This lady is very charming, but I agree with you, the man who does the interview is a sweetheart, he generates a very empathetic conversation. Other interviews seem more like an interrogation, not an empathetic dialogue.
I'm glad she was able to share her story. She reminds me of my late grandmother with the richness and feeling of each detail she tells. It makes me miss her very much. I'm incredibly happy that she lived long enough to pass on her knowledge and continue her family.
Truly beautiful lady,inside and out. I really believe the lady kept her dignity as she had the right to be bitter and resentful. She is truly wonderful to listen to. God bless you💫🌺🌸🌺💫
What a fantastic and charming lady. I loved listening to her recount her story and witness her incredible optimism. It’s beautiful to see how her character and sense of humor remains intact after all the loss and cruelty she has witnessed.
The most frustrating thing about all these stories is that u can hear the interviewer very well but not so the person they are interviewing. It's such a shame cos I'm sure if u gave these people access to a microphone we wud be able to hear them much better. I have seen quite a few comments about this n I don't understand what the problem is. I love these individual stories but now if I can't hear them I scroll to find one I can HEAR!!!! Can u plse investigate this problem so we can hear everybody. This is an amazing program n I love to hear all the stories. Thank you for this information. I share it with my children and grandchildren.
also have this problem but an earpiece will solve it. I am an oldie but use my android phone and blue tooth connected buds so I listen wherever I like gardening etc
Whoa- I haven't heard anyone that knew the word, "vicissitudes" since I read, The Lord of the Flies in grade school! Coolness. I hate the way our language has been changed or erased- the junk they 'teach' in schools now is a shame. Remember the 8 Vicissitudes of Life? Profit and Loss, Fame and Anonymity, Humiliation and Honor and Happiness and Sorrow. TY- that made my day :) .
Vicissitudes, I am looking it up... Thanks Performer Patricia Routledge, of "Keeping Up Appearances" fame and many, many more, gives an in-depth interview included in the bonus features of the complete DVD set of "Hetty Wainthrop Investigates" on her beginnings and influences during her long career, and spends a good portion of the interview speaking about how rich and colorful the English language is when used, and... how little of it is being used nowadays. If you are interested in why we don't "speak" English anymore, I highly recommend finding a way to listen to that interview. I've heard and read made-up words for things today that already have a word, sometimes several words in our dictionaries...
She couldn't relate to the Jewish people who lived in Liverpool and they couldn't relate to her because their life experiences weren't the same. Of all the Holocaust stories out there, this one is incredibly tame. She's less a Holocaust victim and more a British subject caught behind enemy lines. Obviously with her family it's more than that but she didn't end up in a death camp.
@christineantonius4490 in comparison, it's incredibly tame. She had a good war, at least in comparison to those slaughtered, forced on death marches, starved nearly to death, abhorrent living conditions etc.
I think she was hard to understand and it was confusing at times. I also, Think she didn’t understand what the interviewer was asking sometimes. Like she didn’t grasp what was really going on. strange but interesting interview!
These people are remembering things a very long time ago, speaking in a language that is their native, and of very different backgrounds. It’s good to see it impacted right across the society and different types of people.
If you touch/tap the video screen one time then in the upper right hand corner you will see a square appear with the letters: CC. Touch that square and it will turn on subtitles for you. Do the same thing to turn them off. They are fairly accurate and should help you.
What a delightful woman! This is an excellent interview! Thank you to her!!

She is truly a treasure. I'm sorry for your loss of your grandmother but so happy for you both to have had - and treasured - each other.

I get around the problem by turning on the subtitles (CC). ☺️
@@TheAmandahc thx Hilda.
@@sadaf6998 thank you.
One of the best interviewers of this program.
Such a gracious lady! Thanks for helping her share her survival story! Shalom Mrs. Shaw
Excellent interview. Merci Paulette.
a fascinating strong woman, unbroken by her vicissitudes.

She survived also because of her wonderful character. If she , was weeping all the time,
Amazing lady
Oh that's sad cruel Germans !
An amazing true life story not at all easy but no nightmare come to life which was the reality for most of my jewish people.

🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏
She is an amazing woman.I don’t know how anyone can ask if she is related to zHarvey Einstein, Disgusting question from an anti semite I presume
I meant Harvey Weinstein.
It's just a question. Has absolutely nothing to do with antisemitism. If he were an honorable person your comment would not exist.

Not tame that most of your family murdered😢
@christineantonius4490 in comparison, it's incredibly tame. She had a good war, at least in comparison to those slaughtered, forced on death marches, starved nearly to death, abhorrent living conditions etc.
"She had a good war." [sic]. Perhaps you should read Maimonides' great work, 'A Guide for the Perplexed'.
WHY T F IS SHE SMILING WHILE TELLING HER STORY???
Why shouldn't she smile she alive
She was laughing all the time, very disturbing.
that's a nervous laugh
She's very shy and she was nervous.
Rubbish, she is entitled to recount her story how she wishes, she was in her 80s. How horrible of you to imply something sinister, shame on you,
She was smiling during the interview because she recollected all the people she had swindled from her past experiences.
@@adambrocklehurst4211Stupid! She is smiling because she remembers all the people she swindled out of money. Get real yo
Could This Lady Be Related To Harvey Weinstein?????????????
Could be, Clown
I think she was hard to understand and it was confusing at times. I also, Think she didn’t understand what the interviewer was asking sometimes. Like she didn’t grasp what was really going on. strange but interesting interview!
@@mskay949 Age factor plus more corner woman gossip style.

What a ridiculous comment! Really, that's all you have to say? Get a life. Pertaining to the remark, maybe she is related to Harvey Weinstein.
Very poor English, hard to understand.
Just train your ears, don't blame her, she had a very hard time and you chose to comment on her English
Would you like to borrow my hearing aid?
