she's so modern, like someone you'd see on an interview today. amazing this was 44 years ago. i like them together. i really wish they both could have had happier ends.
that part in the interview when he was starring at his wife and the interviewer asked a question and he didnt hear because her was too into her... awww so sweet.
@@tellmamatellmamaall156 may I remind you that Desi Arnaz slept with many women behind Lucille Ball’s back, but that never changed the fact that Lucille was the love of his life
I absolutely love UA-cam because of this. We can watch interviews etc that we thought when they first aired that we would never have the chance to watch again.
He said him getting married was one of the worst things that ever happened to him, or something to that effect. He wasn't bisexual he just went back into closet.
Cara mia Mon Cher I think that he did love her to a certain extent, as well as the two boys he had with her. People today are more accepting of homosexuality than they were back then, so it would not be a big deal now if Perkins lived in this era. But in my opinion, Perkins was a self hating gay man and thought that he could be “cured” if he were with a woman.
@@tellmamatellmamaall156 I lived as a homosexual for 15 years. I gave it up and married a woman 16 years ago. It is easier than you think. I told her everything and she didn't care so we were soon engaged. We have a thirteen year old girl and a ten year old boy. My wife and kids are everything to me. I almost missed out on that. No, I am not cured. But I am faithful to my wife and we have a rich life together. I think I make a pretty good husband and father. I bet Anthony Perkin's sons are grateful he gave them a chance to exist.
@@tellmamatellmamaall156 Where did he say that? How can we know this is just your personal interpretation? If it was so - fine - but people need to say where they got conclusions like that from.
I saw that too at the start of the interview. We got two great people in one video! so very sad though how all of them passed. Tony, Berry and Freddie.
I guess Hollywood kept that image in publics head about psycho character Antony, gets spoken too by interviewers like he is a real psycho in reality! !!!! I guess it's the way he acts and talks very panicky way and highly anxious too , but I guess that's just his nature, real handsome man.
This is interesting to watch as I'm currently reading a bio on Perkins' private life. He was in love and lust with many men, but to come out as gay would have killed his career and he also wanted a family which was likely a big motivator. At that time you could neither have a family nor a acting career without marriage or pretending to be straight. There was also a huge taboo around being gay. He went to a psychologist and saw being gay as something he had to work on to try to fix. He may have been bisexual. I don't think we'll ever know. I don't doubt he generally cared for and loved Berenson, but I think she also for some reason choose relationships with gay men deliberately. Her relationship before Perkins was gay artist Richard Bernstein. If you read that book you can see his primary interest was men. Today I think he'd be out. 1974 seems recent but it's very important to consider the times people lived in when looking at their lives.
True. I find it very interesting to contrast how he and Tab Hunter (his partner in the late 50s) coped with their homosexuality. Both tried to hide it publicly, but Tab continued to pursue men in private and was (relatively) okay with his identity, whereas Tony ended up undergoing conversion therapy and marrying a woman. Like you said I don't doubt that genuinely loved Berry, but it's such a shame he couldn't be who he was at heart publicly.
Very, very sad. Such a good looking great actor. I read somewhere that after his father left home, his mother sexually abused him, maybe that was a contributor to what he became, gay! He said at interviews that it really disturbed him what his mother did to him. It haunted him all his life. Evil sick mother!

@@wjglll340 Oh wow. Well personally I could never see me doing that but if you're genuinely happy then best of wishes to you Edit: Actually, I take all of that back. Judging by other comments you've made elsewhere you're nothing but a self-hating gay man who thinks punching down on queer people will make you feel better about yourself. You think disapproving of your local elementary school's principal being a gay man married to another man will somehow absolve your mind of all the gay shit you willingly did when you were young? You think you're “cured” of your homosexuality because you got married to a woman and blamed your gay friend (who was obviously being abused you fucking idiot) for turning you gay, rather than acknowledging your true self? As a young 20yo gay man I both have sympathy and utter disgust for you. In another timeline you would've been free to be your true self instead of the miserable, old, bigoted self-hating gay man you are today. Tony would spit on you.
@@wjglll340 you can hide behind seven different layers of forced irony all you want, but at the end of the day you're still a fаggоt just like us. And I mean that in the best way possible. Good luck with life, and try not to ponder too much about how you wasted it when you're on your deathbead.
I actually kind of wish that he had married Audrey Hepburn and had children with her. Looking at him and Audrey together, I can feel the real love and bond between them, which surpasses any mere admiration toward one another. They were definitely lifelong friends, but I kind of wonder if Tony always had that special spot in his heart for her? At the time of their growing bond (on the set of Green Mansions) she was married to Mel Ferrer. One has to wonder what could have happened if she were single. Oh well. Berry was wonderful for him as well 😊❤️
2:35 That's interesting. He points out that he liked her not being intrusive, gave him the freedom to easily say no. One might think it should've been easy for a man like him to say no, but maybe it wasn't.
what! !! I just been reading all people messages, Anthony was gay too? ? oh !! didn't know this, Antony had kids and seemed to be a down to earth man , very attractive man
Bisexual, not gay. I think perhaps he felt more at ease with men than with women. I've met some men who although are heterosexual, they don't know how to approach or talk to women.
He wasn't it was all 'hype' propoganda back when to get the publice to feel that gayness was more 'acceptable' He wasn't gay he waited to get married to the rightperson and after his career was really on the high. Notice how people say all these great actors were gay AFTER they pass away? THAT is the angle, they cannot defend themeselves so people start to believe it. All those famous people John Wayne, Cary Grant, Tony, Maurice Evans: : AFTER these poor SUPERB actors die, then the morons start saying they were gay TO BRAINWASH the pblic into thinking gayness is normal in our society - this is AFTER AIDS came out, they didn't want people to panic so they start saying all these great actors that are deceased were gay, to convince the public.
RIP Berry Berenson (1948-2001) A victim onboard American Airlines Flight 11 which crashed into the North Tower of the WTC due to terrorist suicide hijacking during 9/11.
No, he just went back into the closet. He was still having affairs with men after he had married her. Compulsory heterosexuality has damaged a lot of of gay men.
@@emileelovsyapping they maybe loved each other deeply as friends. Maybe he was like Freddie Mercury and loved his female partner dearly for life but had more of a preference for men. Also, in the book Just Kids by Patti Smith, Robert was gay but practically went after Patti because she had that carefree personality and was more masculine looking/ was actually mistaken for a “pretty man” once. But although Robert was gay he always loved Patti and wanted to be close with her despite getting into romantic relationships with men in his later years, before dying of AIDS.
They both died tragically, especially Berry. She was on the first plane that crashed into the WTC on 9/11. It was the day before Anthony’s birthday, who had passed away before her.

Now 50 years ago but yes very sad how they both passed away.
I don’t think he ever lost his looks as everyone says. I think he was handsome all the way through.
I like Berry. I think she has a cool attitude about her. I hope they're both resting in peace.
Tony was still SO handsome here ❤️. Berry was one LUCKY woman.
that part in the interview when he was starring at his wife and the interviewer asked a question and he didnt hear because her was too into her... awww so sweet.
Although he had a lot of relationships with men and women, I think Berry was Tony's true love.
He was still sleeping with men behind her back lol so I doubt she was his "true love".

@@alexandraponce8081, If you're cheating on someone you claim to love you obviously don't love them that much.

Great to see this interview. So wonderful that everyone can watch it now.
I absolutely love UA-cam because of this. We can watch interviews etc that we thought when they first aired that we would never have the chance to watch again.
This was taped in November, 1974. They both left us tragically.
He was bisexual and nobody forced him ! He really loved her with this whole heart

Yes, I think so. Bisexuality is that way...

Wonderful interview, Rest in Peace
thank you SO much for loading this :-)
Holy shit, Freddie Prinze of "Chico and the Man" is there, too! Damn, man, ALL of these people are gone. :(
I saw that too at the start of the interview. We got two great people in one video!
so very sad though how all of them passed. Tony, Berry and Freddie.
Hahaha his pants...it's definitely the 70's!!!!!
SOOOO HANDSOME! Kim :)
Waiting till your in your early 40s before getting married is becoming more common now.
It was always common. My dad got married in 1974, he was 38 then.

Berry Berenson was one helluva fine looking woman. No wonder Perkins was attracted to her. Obviously his straight side was as strong as his gay side.
He was all gay. He married her to hide it.

Is that Freddy Prince
Wow… that’s what I said! Freddy Prince…

He was with Tab Hunter a long time.
