GOD! What a cast, Joan Fountain and Warren Beatty. Loved this Show since a kid; still continues to be one of my very favorite Shows of True Happenings.....
@Mister Google I thought she looked a little old to be his wife, but I'm sure women in that era did marry younger men. I think in the movies they usually stayed with what was "normal".
I love some episodes more than others especially those that hurt and abuse others is not my interest but for those that good is rewarded through odd events. That I look forward to those episodes.
My goodness Warren was a real looker in his day. Joan was sublime and a screen legend but Beatty held his own with this one. Her reaction to Beatty disappearing in front of her eyes was incredible !!! She thought she was losing her mind and for a few tense seconds you believed it.
Yes, her traumatized reaction in that scene reminded me that she not only was directed by Hitchcock about 20 years before this, but she won an Academy award for Best Actress for her performance as Mrs. De Winter in his film, "Rebecca". Interesting bit of trivia, she and her sister, Olivia de Havilland, are the only siblings to have won best lead acting Oscars in the history of the Academy Awards. However, Warren and his sister Shirley came very close! Both have been nominated for best actor/actress several times, but only Shirley won. Warren did win as best director for "Reds", though. This is one of my favorite episodes of "OSB". We are watching two phenomenally talented actors, both of whom also had very talented siblings! Oh, and that set. I want an elegant "cabin in the woods" just like that!
@@LazyIRanch Yes, I knew about Joan and Olivia, Warren and Shirley. I have the box set of OSB and always found it fascinating as a kid and adult.

It was 9 doors down from our family home where my parents lived for over 40 years. I knew the old man who lived there his whole life, since birth until he died @ 1980. As a teen, I'd go jog every afternoon and I met him one day as I was on my way home. We became friends so I'd stop by to chat often. He loved talking about his wife who had died, and I loved hearing his memories. He was lonely and enjoyed having someone to talk to who enjoyed listening. Sometimes my dad had to come get me when I lost track of time. He knew I was talking to Mr. Cody, and he knew and liked him too so he wasn't worried. My brother rented that house a few years after Mr. Cody passed. Rent was cheap, because the big parlor room next to the huge kitchen was unfinished. It had no sheetrock, and the stairs to the upper floor were missing. He talked about strange things, like hearing doors open and shut, and I heard things too. In fact, my brother said the sounds were most frequent when I came over. One day he came home from work and found some papers on his bed. It was an old work permit for the renovations that never got finished. He showed me the papers, and I saw Mr. Cody's name and signature on them. I told my brother, "I know this sounds crazy, but I think Mr. Cody wants you to finish what he started". My brother hadn't done much carpentry work before, but he learned while building those stairs and sheet-rocking the room with help from friends who were tradesmen. He's a musician and had paid a lot to make a demo tape years before, so he bought his own recording equipment and learned to make master tapes. He decided to make that space into a recording studio, with a soundproofed booth in one corner with plate glass window. Worked out really well! We nicknamed the house, "The Party Mansion", and it was filled with music, fun, and people every weekend. I hope Mr. Cody would approve! I think so. Funny, I really do live far out in the boonies, but not in a lovely cabin like this. I moved to S. California in 2001, found 20 acres of gorgeous mountain wilderness for sale and bought it for $15,000 cash! It had a building pad and water meter installed, so it was too good of a deal to pass up. We had a triplewide manufactured house built in 2006, off-grid, powered 100% by solar and wind so I haven't had an electric bill in 17 years. My nearest neighbor is over a mile away, my mailbox is 3 miles away and it takes 45 min to an hour to make a trip for my mail. I only leave my house 3-4 times a month to get groceries and animal feed for my goats and chickens. My husband loved it for the first few years, but he got tired of the inconveniences of being far from everything. He left me in 2015 and filed for divorce. I got to keep the ranch because I paid more into it, and because he hated the place by then. I do sometimes hate those inconveniences, and problems like mountain lions killing my goats and the constant danger of wildfires, but I love this place. I've told people that I'm staying here until I die, and after that I'm going to haunt the crap out of the next owners! Hopefully that won't be anytime soon. Sorry for writing my life story.

She was a superb actress! It's easy to see why Hitchcock chose her to star in some of his movies, and why she won best actress for her role in "Rebecca". That's a great spooky movie based on a great classic book by Daphne du Maurier. Highly recommend!
@@LazyIRanch Ah, I've read that novel, it's great. I watched a TV version starring Diana Rigg as Mrs. Danvers but I've never watched the classic Olivier film. I think it's online so I may watch it tonight. I could do with cheering up as I've got a mild dose of Covid 19 🩷
@@SC-jh9qp I'm so sorry you've got the crud! I hope you get better soon. I've been lucky to avoid Covid, but that has everything to do with me living like a hermit. I'd love to see the version with Diana Rigg as creepy ol' Mrs. Danvers. Ms. Rigg plays those icy-cold personalities well, but then she's another great actress.
@@LazyIRanch Thank you very much for the best wishes. I hope you continue to dodge this thing. I'm just glad I was fully vaccinated. Yes, Diana Rigg made a very sinister Mrs. Danvers. Best Wishes 🤒🩷
@@LazyIRanch Fantastic film. Mrs Danvers was a chilling character. I judge films and programmes on the basis that they were memorable. I don't remember any of the new rubbish films nowadays.
I’ve always admired John Newland. He was highly intelligent. Other shows tried to emulate his program intros but the narrators couldn’t hold a candle to Mr. Newland.
"Heaven can wait" w Warren Beatty and Julie Harris....spot on. Joan gives an excellent performance, very vulnerable and sweet. Warren's brief remembrance of his time waiting at the hospital for his sons birth was "Joe" Pendleton. Glad it had a happy ending.
"Hi, Lady, I'm a random stranger. Can you please let me into your isolated house here in the middle of nowhere so that I can borrow your phone?" "Sorry, I'm all alone here. But okay, sure, you can come in!" Those were the days!
This was in 1960. A year before Warren"s first movie role. He showed flashes of brilliance here already. Yes, he undoubtedly got many breaks due to his elder sister being a star and him being insanely good looking, but he really was a supremely talented guy. He has been lauded and received awards for his excellence in writing, directing and producing but he never really got his dues as an accomplished actor as well. Imho.
In 1959, Collins began a relationship with the then-unknown actor Warren Beatty. They became engaged in 1960, but his infidelity led to their split.[50] Collins revealed in her 1978 autobiography that she became pregnant by Beatty but had an abortion to avoid a scandal that at the time could have seriously damaged their careers.[51]
Interesting bit of trivia, Joan and her sister, Olivia de Havilland, are the only siblings to have won best lead acting Oscars in the history of the Academy Awards. However, Warren and his sister Shirley came very close! Both have been nominated for best actor/actress several times, but only Shirley won. Warren did win as best director for "Reds", though.
It is one of mine too, it's so touching. Slightly different than the normal OSB fare--although I love most of them! These two were so good and this episode always makes me tear up at the end, lol.
Gee, Warren Beatty could act - i always tought he was mostly personality. But he was incredible here - so believable and emotional - long enough to be a soliloquy. 🎭
The credits say John Newland's wardrobe was by Botany 500. I remember that brand and my folks always took me to the mens store that carried them. I had many nice sport coats by Botany 500.
She was wonderful. So was her sister. Bit off-topic, but I always thought it utterly tragic they never spoke to one another, right up to Joan's death in 2013.
@@TheVetusMores Sibling rivalry and professional jealousies even though both were successful??? Perhaps it started with one of them stealing a man from the other one?
Joan Fontaine passed away aged 96 & her lovely sister Olivia de Havilland at age 104, together their ages added up to an amazing 200. Both were sickly babies that turned out to be very robust.
@@TheVetusMores I agree, it was sad that they did not speak to one another. The sisters were brilliant actresses. I think that they would have been great in a film together.
I don't know if the stories on ONE STEP BEYOND were 100 percent factual, but the show always fascinated me and the acting was brilliant. It began the careers of many of the great ones in Hollywood.
Outstanding episode. It's great to see from a man's point of view, even though outwardly or earlier they felt different. I had a conversation with an old, sick, Korean vet at the VA pharmacy. Some political thing was on, something about Obama, debates, abortion. And he says out of nowhere, He was going to die alone and he thought of all the ports he sailed to and the baby he made a woman he was seeing get rid of. You can tell he really cared for her and it wasn't easy for him, but I guess he did what he felt he had to do. The regret... I've never, in years going to the VA or just out in life, with men of any age, heard anyone admit that. Blew my mind.
An amazing story. . . . made a long time ago. . . . but it reminded me of an incident that took place in the 1960's. Very late at night, I heard te sounds of my fathers car, coming into the driveway. After a while, there was silence. However, a few minutes later, Dad arrived home, in fact. The next morning my mother asked me whether Í' had heard the sounds, the night before. . . . how amazing she had also heard the same thing as I did! Did my father project himself home. . . . . and then come home, for real? We will never know.
Yes that was great. But I remember Peter Falk playing a dictator like Castro and he was terrible. He got better much later. Shatner and many fine actors got their start on Twilight Zone.
@@mvann5 You're right about that . Back then if you wanted to get a start you have a small number of shows to be on " Wagon Train " , " Rawhide " , " Twilight Zone " , " Bonanza " , " Outer Limits " and " Combat " . Later was " Dragnet " and " The FBI " along with " The Untouchables " .
The same old story, a woman alone in the house with *no curtains!* That said, I do love this program and always lovely to see Joan. Thanks as always *Pizza* Love your sauce!
Hey, I'm an older woman who lives alone in a very remote area, and I don't have curtains on some of my windows, and none on my glass front doors. My nearest neighbor is more than a mile away, and anything that comes within 200 yards of my house will encounter my dog. One of the things I love about living here is that it's very private.
The more of these episodes I watch, the more I am convinced that a sleeping pill, a sedative or a stiff drink will cure just about anything. Almost every episode includes a doctor prescribing sleeping pills or some form of sedative and, absent a doctor, someone invariably pours a drink for their distressed counterpart. No wonder my grandmother was addicted to all of the above. The '40s, '50s and '60s must have one giant hangover.
Was just saying recently & now thinking that ALL these classic movies & shows I used to love were programming & as my mom used to say, not real life " they programmed us out of using strong words like ye & thee calling them old hat across all languages & got us using KID ( baby goats & goats are cursed ) & he 🏒 🏒 O which is NOT a greeting yet a curse
All these handsome young men who established themselves in episodic TV of the Fifties and Sixties, like William Shatner, Gary Conway, Clint Eastwood, Ty Hardin, Tab Hunter, or here, Warren Beatty.. Interesting to watch their early work and see who lucked into movie stardom and who never achieved escape velocity.
Always one of my top shows to watch. Would like to believe these stories have some truth in them. So well written and acted I could watch them forever. A show that makes you think. Nothing like that on tv now. Difference between now and then. John Newland great host. Thanks for sharing.
Yeah these days horror & supernatural series tend to focus on the the same characters (X -Files, Hannibal, Supernatural, Buffy, etc....) instead of trying something different each time out, like One Step Beyond, Night Gallery, & Twilight Zone did. Surprising really..........All of them today are stuck on using their leading actors like brand names. The older series relied on good old fashioned story telling....
@@aimpat34 "What though the radiance which was once so bright, be now, forever, taken from my site, though nothing can bring back the hour, of splendor in the grass, of glory in the flower, we will grieve not, rather find strength in what remains behind." I loved that movie. I hope I got that right, it has been a long time since I've watched that movie. Sad story. Bud and Dini.
@@aimpat34 You are welcome. I so wanted them to get together at the end. I remember the first time I saw the movie, when Dini arrived at Bud's farm, at the end of the movie, I was devastated to see that he had married, had one child and another on the way. I actually cried.
Damn, some of these plots are intense. Just discovered an unaired series called "The Veil",hosted by Karloff, which also has some pretty heavy concepts, good stuff.
OMGOODNESS 😭😭😭 I just LOVE LOVE LOVE that ending!. Though I am familiar with the lead actor and actress, I believe anyone could have acted this highly emotional (for me anyway) story of reconciliation. Awe inspiring acting of an emotionally charged story. 👏👏👏💕💕💕😊 Gonna sit back and watch that again. I need to shed a few more tears. 😢
Originally telecast on May 10, 1960. This episode also served as a "pilot" for a dramatic anthology series that would have featured Joan Fontaine as hostess and occasional performer. ...which would have also been produced by her husband at the time, Collier Young [they divorced the following year].
I know. I’ve been there. I’ve felt so many times his presence. I’ve seen him many times throughout the years. I can’t explain it. But it’s true. Love Never Dies. True Love Never Dies. No Matter WHAT HAPPENS FROM NOW OR THEN. Trust It Will Return.
Those first lines about clocks, and time, and the "constant now" reminded me of doing LSD. Everything becomes just too clear and clocks lose their authority.
Well Stated John Bowerman There is something about the College of Higher Learning COHL “Class of Hallowed Lysergic”or LSD “Look See Discover “ I was 13 years old a rebellious kid when I was handed a 4 way hit of Lysergic pure and real I became so completely aware that I’m the grand scheme of things I was No One But that if I could climb down off of my Rock I might just might be Some ONE ... My life changed I became aware of my need to be humble and to respect my parents and that God and Nature and These people made of clay were all intertwined and we were in deed responsible for each other on and one Sorry But I needed some one and or something to stop me and slow me down so I would look at things
I know about that humbling effect. You realize the value of holding your tongue, observing, and most of all... don't be an asshole drawing ill-begotten attention your way. Also... I saw that most people are actually frightened and there's a duty to be gentle with them.
John Bowerman Wow How I wish I had someone likeminded as You to share those journeys with although some are best experienced alone especially if U have someone not learning just wanting to drink more beer and watch tracers. I tried to tell a class mate about one of my experiences and he said “oh yeah man I dropped one of those and drank a case of beer without getting drunk and was up all night watching the f n tracers off my cigarette “ But enough of that What U said About “being mindful of how you treat others remembering that a lot of people are afraid “,That’s very profound and I’m not sure I ever thought about it quite like that But it’s so true In Aldeous Huxleys Book “Doors of Perception “ He says something like this “ Once you have come thru the fire and had a real look at life and the reality of the humans responsibilities on this earth ,You come back and a lot of the chaff is left behind and U are more aware ,but more cautious ,more self confident but less cocksure And That goes along with what U said about not trying to project yourself out there and hey look at me attitude
John Bowerman also U should look for the episode of this series where the host goes into the out lying areas far from the tourist in Mexico and eats the hallucinogenic mushrooms and experiences a full blown experience as one of the episodes. It’s very amazing that they did that o. Television
Another thing about dropping acid. I recall about a dozen of us all doing a hit of windowpane at the same time one summer night. Just one guy declined but hung around to get drunk. He was so obviously out of step with the rest of us... and almost to the point of being an outsider to be shunned. We watched his nose turn red and his words slur and really... we just felt bad for him. Drank less after that insight too.
Its been many years, but my little brother and I experienced a projection of sorts involving our 3 year old sister. My brother and I were the only ones home, I was studying for college finals at the kitchen table. My little brother was there too with his coloring book. Suddenly, we heard the sound of a little girl giggling in the hallway. We both stopped and looked in surprise at each other. Before either of us said anything, I asked my brother if he heard anything. He nodded yes. Next, I asked him to tell me what he heard. He said he heard our sister laughing in the hallway. I said I heard the same thing. So, we got up and searched the house room by room, but found nothing. So, I called my grandparents house, and our sister was there as she was supposed to be, perfectly fine and safe. Whatever happened that day, we could not explain, but both my brother and I both experienced it.
He said what everyone does when they're accused of not believing... try me. My dad always said that to me, and he always thought I was telling stories afterward.
About half of these episodes have a doctor handing out 'sedatives' and 'sleeping pills' (barbituates) like candy. Ah, the good old days, before scheduled controlled substances. :)
anonagain It's to bad that its not like that today. Aww the good ol' days with the Diet pills (Black Beautys, amphetamines) and we can't forget Mother's little helper (Downers, Valium) oh yeah and the cheap and highest quality cocaine and cheap booze lol it sure brings back memories it's a wonder why some of us are still alive to this day
Since I've cancelled my cable I haven't seen very many color tv shows. I'd rather watch these greats the twilight zone, sherlock Holmes, the honeymooners, the early color sitcoms all in the family, Sanford and son , the jeffersons back wen a few great actors a good script a one room created classics a wonderful way to escape my stress for a while true entertainment.
I've never wanted to "escape" the world more than I do this year. This show helps give me comfort and helps my stress and anxiety. Thank you.

@@LazyIRanch Ah, I've read that novel, it's great. I watched a TV version starring Diana Rigg as Mrs. Danvers but I've never watched the classic Olivier film. I think it's online so I may watch it tonight. I could do with cheering up as I've got a mild dose of Covid 19 🩷
@@SC-jh9qp I'm so sorry you've got the crud! I hope you get better soon. I've been lucky to avoid Covid, but that has everything to do with me living like a hermit.
I'd love to see the version with Diana Rigg as creepy ol' Mrs. Danvers. Ms. Rigg plays those icy-cold personalities well, but then she's another great actress.
@@LazyIRanch Thank you very much for the best wishes. I hope you continue to dodge this thing. I'm just glad I was fully vaccinated. Yes, Diana Rigg made a very sinister Mrs. Danvers. Best Wishes 🤒🩷
@@LazyIRanch Fantastic film. Mrs Danvers was a chilling character. I judge films and programmes on the basis that they were memorable. I don't remember any of the new rubbish films nowadays.
I’ve always admired John Newland. He was highly intelligent. Other shows tried to emulate his program intros but the narrators couldn’t hold a candle to Mr. Newland.
He was a handsome man, he's elegant with just the right touch of spookiness. Reminds me a little of Vincent Price.
His delivery of the narration is second to none!
👍✌️
Love this episode, it literally touches your soul, one of the best of the series.
Damn, a powerful little chamber play. Sneaks right up on you and grabs you by the heartstrings
Dang! That open flame lol. That was the best acting Beatty has ever performed.
Ha ha I was worried about that, too. ESP if she was drunk.
I watched this show every Saturday when I was a little girl. It was my mother's favorite show.
Heartbreaking and wonderful. Such a beautiful piece of writing performed exquisitely
"Heaven can wait" w Warren Beatty and Julie Harris....spot on. Joan gives an excellent performance, very vulnerable and sweet. Warren's brief remembrance of his time waiting at the hospital for his sons birth was "Joe" Pendleton. Glad it had a happy ending.
Julie Christie, not Julie Harris.
Almost all dialogue in one room, yet I was completely engaged, fascinated. Wonderful acting and writing and concept--so powerful.
Don't need all the special effects and things blowing up to make a powerful drama.
Twilight Zone did this as well. Acting authenticity at its best!!!
"Hi, Lady, I'm a random stranger. Can you please let me into your isolated house here in the middle of nowhere so that I can borrow your phone?" "Sorry, I'm all alone here. But okay, sure, you can come in!"
Those were the days!
LMAO 🤣😂😂🤣😆
"my wife is in the hospital" Seems legit.
LOL. Let me announce "I'm here all alone as a woman" come on in. Spoken in the words of the unsolved mysterious guy.
Thanks for the laugh.
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Joan Fontaine is magnificent, as always. I totally enjoyed her performance.
Joan Fontaine & her actress sister Olivia de Havilland lived long lives. Their combined ages at death totaled 200. JF 96 & OdH 104. Wow.
Bette Davis, Joan Fontaine, Barbara Stanwyck.... so many of the great movie stars never 'short changed' a TV half hour drama but gave PERFORMANCES.
Warren Beatty and Joan Fontaine! Brilliant story. Loved it. Thank you for sharing this.
This was in 1960. A year before Warren"s first movie role. He showed flashes of brilliance here already. Yes, he undoubtedly got many breaks due to his elder sister being a star and him being insanely good looking, but he really was a supremely talented guy. He has been lauded and received awards for his excellence in writing, directing and producing but he never really got his dues as an accomplished actor as well. Imho.
In 1959, Collins began a relationship with the then-unknown actor Warren Beatty. They became engaged in 1960, but his infidelity led to their split.[50] Collins revealed in her 1978 autobiography that she became pregnant by Beatty but had an abortion to avoid a scandal that at the time could have seriously damaged their careers.[51]
Interesting bit of trivia, Joan and her sister, Olivia de Havilland, are the only siblings to have won best lead acting Oscars in the history of the Academy Awards. However, Warren and his sister Shirley came very close! Both have been nominated for best actor/actress several times, but only Shirley won. Warren did win as best director for "Reds", though.
"Insanely good looking," lol, says it all.
The lovely Joan Fontaine putting in an excellent performance. So far this episode is my favorite but I do have a hundred more to go 😃
It is one of mine too, it's so touching. Slightly different than the normal OSB fare--although I love most of them! These two were so good and this episode always makes me tear up at the end, lol.
Well, try "The Trap".
He was the stud of Hollywood . So glad he settled down
Joan Fontaine and Warren Beatty together, great stuff.
She's old enough to be his mother
Before special effects. When a good story and good acting were important.
Brilliant acting by Beatty AND Fontaine.
OMG this was so good-so heartbreaking and well done, with two great actors.
Gee, Warren Beatty could act - i always tought he was mostly personality. But he was incredible here - so believable and emotional - long enough to be a soliloquy. 🎭
I fall to sleep with these on,trying to watch all of them, I am new to them
Amazing series and I especially loved this episode!!! TV shows in the 21st century are crap.
Went for a walk in the country, in the snow, in heels, pearls..😂😂😂😂😂
The credits say John Newland's wardrobe was by Botany 500. I remember that brand and my folks always took me to the mens store that carried them. I had many nice sport coats by Botany 500.
Botany 500 also fitted out Rod Serling in Twilight Zone....
Joan Fontaine was great actress going back way back when ,,,,,, she was beautiful also.......
She was wonderful. So was her sister. Bit off-topic, but I always thought it utterly tragic they never spoke to one another, right up to Joan's death in 2013.
@@TheVetusMores Sibling rivalry and professional jealousies even though both were successful??? Perhaps it started with one of them stealing a man from the other one?
Joan Fontaine passed away aged 96 & her lovely sister Olivia de Havilland at age 104, together their ages added up to an amazing 200. Both were sickly babies that turned out to be very robust.
@@TheVetusMores I agree, it was sad that they did not speak to one another. The sisters were brilliant actresses. I think that they would have been great in a film together.
Classic episode.That lady was superb!
OMG! Warren Beatty is such a beautiful man.
Dont get taken, there are others out there, grab one.
I don't know if the stories on ONE STEP BEYOND were 100 percent factual, but the show always fascinated me and the acting was brilliant. It began the careers of many of the great ones in Hollywood.
Warren Beatty was so handsome. They don’t make em like that anymore.
Loved this series as a kid; so glad I found it again>
This episode, and "The Reunion" are two of my most remembered episodes. Great stories and actors. Unforgettable.
Some of these stories are actually made this way because they actually happen. Thanks for that video 👍🇺🇸🙂
Excellent screenwriting and very good acting. I'm not a big fan of Warren Beatty but he was well cast in this role
My sentiments exactly. This is exceptional.
Outstanding episode. It's great to see from a man's point of view, even though outwardly or earlier they felt different. I had a conversation with an old, sick, Korean vet at the VA pharmacy. Some political thing was on, something about Obama, debates, abortion. And he says out of nowhere, He was going to die alone and he thought of all the ports he sailed to and the baby he made a woman he was seeing get rid of. You can tell he really cared for her and it wasn't easy for him, but I guess he did what he felt he had to do. The regret... I've never, in years going to the VA or just out in life, with men of any age, heard anyone admit that. Blew my mind.
Oh boo hoo the poor woman.
Gorgeous actor
She was excellent with her lines. I don't care what kind of character hers was, I have a lot of respect for how talented she was
@@upthedownescalator630 I'm talking about the man
@@intuitivespiritmanifested4459 I figured, cause she's not the type that people would call gorgeous. But still she was great
An amazing story. . . . made a long time ago. . . . but it reminded me of an incident that took place in the 1960's. Very late at night, I heard te sounds of my fathers car, coming into the driveway. After a while, there was silence. However, a few minutes later, Dad arrived home, in fact. The next morning my mother asked me whether Í' had heard the sounds, the night before. . . . how amazing she had also heard the same thing as I did! Did my father project himself home. . . . . and then come home, for real? We will never know.
I'm into all this paranormal stuff and there are 100's of documented cases just like this one. Great Job John Newland.
One of the greatest shows and episodes along with Robert Redford in " The Twilight Zone " as a wounded Police Officer / Angle of Death .
Yes that was great. But I remember Peter Falk playing a dictator like Castro and he was terrible. He got better much later. Shatner and many fine actors got their start on Twilight Zone.
@@mvann5
You're right about that .
Back then if you wanted to get a start you have a small number of shows to be on " Wagon Train " , " Rawhide " , " Twilight Zone " , " Bonanza " , " Outer Limits " and " Combat " .
Later was " Dragnet " and " The FBI " along with " The Untouchables " .
This was an excellent episode.
Hey, that was good -- like watching theater. OMG, the camera loved Warren Beatty.
The title of this episode should have titled:
"A Second Chance At Love"
The first half was actually horrible acting. They must have gotten an acting coach in there him on the second half.
Warren was only approximately 23 in this movie. This black and white doesn't do him justice.
He was hot!
@@patsykluting-lucas3804 He is smoking hot especially in Bonnie & Clyde!
The host very good choice of words👍🌹Warren Beaty is my sweetheart forever💝
This story is so touching, and the acting is excellent.
These shows are so addictive. 👍🏻
The best of OSB I've seen! Certainly didn't hurt having Joan Fontaine and Warren Beatty.
The same old story, a woman alone in the house with *no curtains!*
That said, I do love this program and always lovely to see Joan.
Thanks as always *Pizza* Love your sauce!
Hey, I'm an older woman who lives alone in a very remote area, and I don't have curtains on some of my windows, and none on my glass front doors. My nearest neighbor is more than a mile away, and anything that comes within 200 yards of my house will encounter my dog.
One of the things I love about living here is that it's very private.
The more of these episodes I watch, the more I am convinced that a sleeping pill, a sedative or a stiff drink will cure just about anything. Almost every episode includes a doctor prescribing sleeping pills or some form of sedative and, absent a doctor, someone invariably pours a drink for their distressed counterpart. No wonder my grandmother was addicted to all of the above. The '40s, '50s and '60s must have one giant hangover.
Is worst now
Was just saying recently & now thinking that ALL these classic movies & shows I used to love were programming & as my mom used to say, not real life " they programmed us out of using strong words like ye & thee calling them old hat across all languages & got us using KID ( baby goats & goats are cursed ) & he 🏒 🏒 O which is NOT a greeting yet a curse
Don't forget the cigarettes. Sorry to say, that one's made a comeback in shows lately.
John Newland was adorable 😊handsome rascal December,2020
Beatty is exceptionally good in this. No wonder he later got the big bucks.
And he was freakin' beautiful. He slept with half of Hollywood so I'm sure he got a little help from his friends, not to demean his acting.
All these handsome young men who established themselves in episodic TV of the Fifties and Sixties, like William Shatner, Gary Conway, Clint Eastwood, Ty Hardin, Tab Hunter, or here, Warren Beatty..
Interesting to watch their early work and see who lucked into movie stardom and who never achieved escape velocity.
Always one of my top shows to watch. Would like to believe these stories have some truth in them. So well written and acted I could watch them forever. A show that makes you think. Nothing like that on tv now. Difference between now and then. John Newland great host. Thanks for sharing.
Yeah these days horror & supernatural series tend to focus on the the same characters (X -Files, Hannibal, Supernatural, Buffy, etc....) instead of trying something different each time out, like One Step Beyond, Night Gallery, & Twilight Zone did. Surprising really..........All of them today are stuck on using their leading actors like brand names.
The older series relied on good old fashioned story telling....
Captivating story
And Intense actingI is what makes one spellbound!!!!Loved the climax.,
Wow! Warren B, the long-ago superstar. Really dates this video clip. He must be about 90, now.
"Yesterday when I was young........" Joan Fontaine. I have never seen Warren Beatty in anything so beautiful.
Find the film called SPLENDOUR IN THE GRASS -- also stars Natalie Wood.
Stunning work, beautiful picture.
@@aimpat34 "What though the radiance which was once so bright, be now, forever, taken from my site, though nothing can bring back the hour, of splendor in the grass, of glory in the flower, we will grieve not, rather find strength in what remains behind." I loved that movie. I hope I got that right, it has been a long time since I've watched that movie. Sad story. Bud and Dini.
@@queserasera1674 Thanks for the quote.
@@aimpat34 You are welcome. I so wanted them to get together at the end. I remember the first time I saw the movie, when Dini arrived at Bud's farm, at the end of the movie, I was devastated to see that he had married, had one child and another on the way. I actually cried.
Damn, some of these plots are intense. Just discovered an unaired series called "The Veil",hosted by Karloff, which also has some pretty heavy concepts, good stuff.
@lana lake You're very welcome.
I love this episode. Warren Beatty is an awesome actor! Warren Beatty is a handsome man.❤️
Helps to the yeah!
Warren Beaty looks so young and handsome ! His movie with his wife Annette Bening 'Love Affair 'is so touching !!
Just love these so well ridden an act from great actors😊
OMGOODNESS 😭😭😭 I just LOVE LOVE LOVE that ending!. Though I am familiar with the lead actor and actress, I believe anyone could have acted this highly emotional (for me anyway) story of reconciliation. Awe inspiring acting of an emotionally charged story. 👏👏👏💕💕💕😊 Gonna sit back and watch that again. I need to shed a few more tears. 😢
Originally telecast on May 10, 1960. This episode also served as a "pilot" for a dramatic anthology series that would have featured Joan Fontaine as hostess and occasional performer. ...which would have also been produced by her husband at the time, Collier Young [they divorced the following year].
Never smoke and never drink.
Warren Beatty was such a handsome man ...
This is when real TV was great!
She was the sister of Olivia DeHavilland who was in Gone With The Wind. They were jealous of each other. Olivia is still alive.
Died July 2020, aged 104
Excellent episode worth watching. Warren Beatty and Joan Fontaine.
Was not aware of this series before watching this one.A trip back in time...and a stylish one,ha!!
Oh I love this! I think this was possibly the best episode I've seen so far!
if you're Mark, formerly of the GIANTS, I worked w/ your uncle AL before he passed away. great guy.I'm sorry.
good story,, see how we all put our guard up to hide pain.
Don’t drink, but here, take these pills lol 😂😂😂
Wow! This one was exceptional.
Always enjoyed the Twilight Zone, Night Gallery & One Step Beyond Warren Beatty did a few Twilight Zone episodes!
Warren never did the twilight zone
I've watched a lot of these lately and this is one of my favourites, simple but great acting and a moving story
I know. I’ve been there. I’ve felt so many times his presence. I’ve seen him many times throughout the years. I can’t explain it. But it’s true. Love Never Dies. True Love Never Dies. No Matter WHAT HAPPENS FROM NOW OR THEN. Trust It Will Return.
Wow! Joan Fontaine and Warren Beatty!!?
@Mister Google But did you see? They aged him for the time travel effect.
As always three thumbs up. Great shows.
Those first lines about clocks, and time, and the "constant now" reminded me of doing LSD. Everything becomes just too clear and clocks lose their authority.
Well Stated John Bowerman There is something about the College of Higher Learning COHL “Class of Hallowed Lysergic”or LSD “Look See Discover “ I was 13 years old a rebellious kid when I was handed a 4 way hit of Lysergic pure and real I became so completely aware that I’m the grand scheme of things I was No One But that if I could climb down off of my Rock I might just might be Some ONE ... My life changed I became aware of my need to be humble and to respect my parents and that God and Nature and These people made of clay were all intertwined and we were in deed responsible for each other on and one Sorry But I needed some one and or something to stop me and slow me down so I would look at things
I know about that humbling effect. You realize the value of holding your tongue, observing, and most of all... don't be an asshole drawing ill-begotten attention your way. Also... I saw that most people are actually frightened and there's a duty to be gentle with them.
John Bowerman Wow How I wish I had someone likeminded as You to share those journeys with although some are best experienced alone especially if U have someone not learning just wanting to drink more beer and watch tracers. I tried to tell a class mate about one of my experiences and he said “oh yeah man I dropped one of those and drank a case of beer without getting drunk and was up all night watching the f n tracers off my cigarette “ But enough of that What U said About “being mindful of how you treat others remembering that a lot of people are afraid “,That’s very profound and I’m not sure I ever thought about it quite like that But it’s so true In Aldeous Huxleys Book “Doors of Perception “ He says something like this “ Once you have come thru the fire and had a real look at life and the reality of the humans responsibilities on this earth ,You come back and a lot of the chaff is left behind and U are more aware ,but more cautious ,more self confident but less cocksure And That goes along with what U said about not trying to project yourself out there and hey look at me attitude
John Bowerman also U should look for the episode of this series where the host goes into the out lying areas far from the tourist in Mexico and eats the hallucinogenic mushrooms and experiences a full blown experience as one of the episodes. It’s very amazing that they did that o. Television
Another thing about dropping acid. I recall about a dozen of us all doing a hit of windowpane at the same time one summer night. Just one guy declined but hung around to get drunk. He was so obviously out of step with the rest of us... and almost to the point of being an outsider to be shunned. We watched his nose turn red and his words slur and really... we just felt bad for him. Drank less after that insight too.
Dude the acting was so much better back in the day
Its been many years, but my little brother and I experienced a projection of sorts involving our 3 year old sister. My brother and I were the only ones home, I was studying for college finals at the kitchen table. My little brother was there too with his coloring book. Suddenly, we heard the sound of a little girl giggling in the hallway. We both stopped and looked in surprise at each other. Before either of us said anything, I asked my brother if he heard anything. He nodded yes. Next, I asked him to tell me what he heard. He said he heard our sister laughing in the hallway. I said I heard the same thing. So, we got up and searched the house room by room, but found nothing. So, I called my grandparents house, and our sister was there as she was supposed to be, perfectly fine and safe. Whatever happened that day, we could not explain, but both my brother and I both experienced it.
Great episode!
There are those who believe that 'clocks' and linear time are a human construct. Newland says this in the intro.
Beatty in "older" make-up looks uncannily like George hamilton ...
TRINZINI
He looks more like Dick Tracy!
Idk, looks a lot like Warren Beatty to me. :{)
@@MsBackstager So you noticed!
Never could he look that bad. Get 👓 glasses!
This episode is one of my favorite. Thanks for the upload.
Nice mid-20th century furnishings...
Joan Fontaine looks gorgeous as usual. If this is 1959 she is just 42.
It's season 2, so it's 1960
He said what everyone does when they're accused of not believing... try me. My dad always said that to me, and he always thought I was telling stories afterward.
how have i never seen these? thanks "pizza fix".....:)
This is my 2nd favorite so far, after the "Firestarter" one...but all are masterpieces so far!
I got them all on a DVD box set.
About half of these episodes have a doctor handing out 'sedatives' and 'sleeping pills' (barbituates) like candy. Ah, the good old days, before scheduled controlled substances. :)
anonagain
It's to bad that its not like that today. Aww the good ol' days with the Diet pills (Black Beautys, amphetamines) and we can't forget Mother's little helper (Downers, Valium) oh yeah and the cheap and highest quality cocaine and cheap booze lol it sure brings back memories it's a wonder why some of us are still alive to this day
anonagain 🤣🤣🤣🤣
Ah the Devils Candy! They still do this at VA.
So true!
And they all used to smoke, too. Even the women.
SUCH A WONDERFUL ACTOR, LOVED HIM IN THE MOVIE BONNIE AND CLYDE,❤❤❤
This was a B+ TV show, and the acting is ten times better than the garbage handed to us in 2020. Makes sense.
This was one of their best episodes from this series
one of the best of the series!
This must have been one of Warren Beatty's earliest roles, a TV role before he became a famous movie star. And he's made to look older than he is
Excellent. Acting and story direction.
Since I've cancelled my cable I haven't seen very many color tv shows. I'd rather watch these greats the twilight zone, sherlock Holmes, the honeymooners, the early color sitcoms all in the family, Sanford and son , the jeffersons back wen a few great actors a good script a one room created classics a wonderful way to escape my stress for a while true entertainment.
Same here!
What is cable???? 🤪
My favorite episode of OSB!!!
