Screw critics (and especially modern day critics ) What's New Pussycat is an extremely funny and entertaining film, and it has a great soundtrack that I listen to often. I really wish Peter O'Toole had gotten a chance to do more comedies of this variety as he plays well off everybody in the movie including Peter Sellers -- and it's hard to play along side Sellers in the same scene and be just as interesting to watch.
I have been told that I look like her, what a compliment. She was great in Pussycat and she was a great example of European elegance. Thanks for posting.
It's really heartbreaking to think of that chic, funny, charming and beautiful woman aging alone with her cats. With all the love and friendship she engendered she never believed she was loved herself. Tragic.
Capucine was a great friend of both Hubert de Givenchy and Audrey Hepburn. Her acting career was challenging, as you mentioned in détails. Sad about her passing, while her good Friend, Audrey Hepburn, was travelling for her humanitarian works and fighting early stages of cancer, Capucine fought a very deep demon, i hope she found peace at Last.
She was the first movie star I fell in love with...I was 11. Every one of my many wifes to come, reflected her look. It still depresses me that she found no lasting happiness in her life and ended the way it did.
That's how I was first introduced to her magnificence. I thought her performance was sublime. You could almost feel the characters heartbreak, disappointment, and finally love for her man. Would love to have met her. I guess lonely and or depressed folks can recognize others who are like minded. RIP
I always admired her and saw many of her movies. She was an entertaining actress. Very few women in cinema have had her almost ethereal beauty that belonged in the Louvre along with Mona Lisa. She made her exit in a dramatic albeit very sad way. Nothing is ever perfect and she (like Marylin Monroe and many other actresses) was cursed by manic depression. The paramount of classic beauty.
I think aging take a toll on beautiful women like that, I think also of Ava Gardner who also became insecure. The attractiveness, the magnetism disappear... it’s hard when you’ve been looked at and courted all your life.
and unfortunately not what we know about mental health to help her. my heart weeps from the pain she must have went through. depression is all consuming
I agree. I loved the volume of the collection of photos of this video but the dis-synchronity of the photos themselves and the tonality of the narrator kills me.
I never knew what happened to her. I grew up in the fifties, and always thought, she was very elegant. She looked like a vogue model. Really good at comedy or drama! Very beautiful. She had a long , swan like neck! Akin to Audrey Hepburn. Sad! RIP! Blessings and prayers to her family.
Audrey was her best friend, and she was a top model before she acted, she was on the cover of Elle and in many editorials. She was Givenchy’s absolute favorite model, and presented for him as well.
Great classic beauty who died a tragic death like most of those actors mentioned here! Golden Holden bedded all his beautiful leading ladies and really was filled with self-doubt about his acting! His death is another one of Hollywood's great tragedy! He had everything and threw it all away! May they all rest in peace~ Thanks for sharing Age of Vintage~
What a beautiful woman, far more beautiful than many of Hollywood's more enduring stars. That she couldn't act was rather normal for many who made it big in Tinsel town. RIP
i never knew about her life until now. thank you for this video. i look forward to watching her movies!! she looked so stylish and anyone who loves cats is number one in my book! i am so sorry to hear about her mental health disorders. and sad what we know now was not available to her to help her. seriously makes me weep, the suffering she went through. anyone suffering now, please talk to someone, people care about you and love you!
I found her absolutely gorgeous. But looking at her life, I can see that she had bipolar disorder. Maybe with medicine and therapy she would not have died from suicide.
Probably, but it was 1990 and, as we know, mental health awareness wasn’t present back then. If only she were alive today to see all the progress we’ve made. 😢
I remembered her from North to Alaska, and liked her very much in the movie. Sad she didn't get a good relationship with John Wayne during the filming. Had no idea of how tragic her death was, until watching this...very saddened to hear it. Thank you for doing this, I would have otherwise never known.
Oh my God she's so beautiful and talented manic depression too bad she had it I have depression to done a lot of counseling for depression PTSD still fighting my demons but surviving at 68 happy summer 2021
Thank you for a vid on this extraordinary woman. I always felt she had the 'perfect face'! Loved her in 'Song' Dirk Bogard and a 'Walk on the Wild Side'. Never knew what became of her. So sorry to hear that! She lit the screen w each role she played! So elegant and often aloof. But always stunning! Thank you, once again.
I absolutely love that Cap and Stefanie Powers both had affairs with William Holden (at different times) and became friends when they worked together on Hart to Hart!!!
@@louisgonzalez8846 I said, 'sort of reminds me of'., then I said 'if you look at certain pics of Joan'. At no point did I say she is a dead ringer for Joan Crawford. lol
That was devastating. I never knew much about her life. I thought she was like a beautiful Swan. She guest starred on an Episode of Murder She wrote. It makes me sad that she gave up on life 😢.
I've never even heard of her until I watched this video today. She was stunningly beautiful. It's heartbreaking how she died. I'm going to look for her movies and watch them now. Great video like always.
There was a female impersonator that used the name "Capucine". This started the silly rumor that the real Capucine was a man. Strangely, this story took hold, and probably haunted her for a long time.
SUCH a beautiful woman! And her scene in "The Pink Panther" at the bar with Peter Sellers & Robert Wagner where she chokes on her drink and Wagner tells her to put her arms up above her head & then Sellers tells her to put her head between her knees and she promptly bangs the SHIT outta' her head on the bar is HYSTERICAL. Poor thing though......she killed herself, R.I.P.
People rudely and incorrectly assume, gorgeous women with tons of opportunities for travel and adventure have it all. They don’t stop to think that maybe there’s something missing in their lives. She was one of my favorite actresses for her class and carriage. It truly saddens me that she was in so much pain, she ended her life. Her friends should have helped her if there was a chance. RIP, sweet lady 💜🙏🏾🙏🏾
I adore Capucine and loved this video. North to Alaska is a fave because I'm such a Stewart Granger fan. I found Capucine later in Pink Panther and learned she was a friend of another fave, Audrey Hepburn. She was gorgeous, real and liked her fur people. What more can I say. I completely enjoyed the presentation. How I wish she would not have taken her precious life. THANK YOU for your work to get this presentation on UA-cam !!! PS: Warmest wishes from Northern California !! :)
I watched all of your presentation on Capucine. I appreciate your dignified and sympathetic narration. Obviously she was underappreciated in general for many years and somehow faulted for not becoming the perfect replacement for Grace Kelly. I've always felt the American public secretly disliked that Kelly married Ranier of Monaco , felt rejected and hurt because she had come to embody cherished ideals. Now I believe Capucine partly became a focus of that public disappointment. Sad that she died as she did , but , somehow , respectable. I would like to comment further but many always seem to hate my perspective on anything. I will say , however , that an American tabloid newspaper recently made assertions that Ranier lied to Grace Kelly in various ways before she agreed to marry him. It was asserted he had no more money , and that Kelly either had money herself he could exploit , and/or her talent, fame and popularity would enable him to restore his wealth and royal stature.
I read where she paid $30,000 to a dr. to write up that she was a virgin. So who knows what the truth is. Everyone in Hollywood knew very well that she had MANY AFFAIRS.!!
Just watched her in North to Alaska. It's the first time I've ever heard of her. She was stunning and the only thing that made the film worth watching. (This from a straight woman.) So sad that she didn't have a happier life.
Beauties of Capucine's likeness or quality are a rarity these days..She was like no other..She was beyond beautiful!..sadly only a few believed she had more to offer..🤔
I liked her. True, I know her primarily from PInk Panther but that film left an impression on me for its sophistication....aside from the comedy and Cappucine gave a lot of both. and I found her name, one name, part of her mystique.
She was exquisitely beautiful. Breathtaking. I loved her in North to Alaska. Although I could not believe that her character would be attracted to John Wayne. But she was good in her role, no matter what Stewart Grainger thought. His opinion of her was wrong. He was in the same movie and wasn't very good in it. Sorry, Stewie.
I always admired her films and 'look.' She had the allure of a smoldering beauty without the forced look of Grace Kelly. There are lots of actresses who leave the limelight but few carry it until the end like she did without making headlines.
Very good. Can you make one about Alida Valli? And maybe not only about her Hollywood movies but in general as Italian beauty actress who made international and italian movies as well?
There was rumors that she was a man and then she aged. All of that made her feel insecure. Her career was slowing, she was alone and she started developing depression. Her friend Audrey Hepburn ( who dated also William Holden... I can’t wait for the next one about him !) ,lived like her in Switzerland and used to see her and support her when she had mental crises and suicidal idealisation. But that day 1990, she had enough. And jumped from her building. May she find peace in her sleep.
The rumour about her having been a man is still being circulated now. I was going through a museum a few years ago and there was a display about transgender milestones. There in the middle was a massive picture of Capucine.
@@gilgameshofuruk4060 can’t believe there’s still people with that misinformation about her! What led to confusion is that there was a French trans performer also called Capucine. They were two different people that just happened to have the same name.
The jury is still out on this one. Bette Davis, Rock Hudson and others said that he did. He denied it. If the claim that he wore 4 inch lifts was correct, then more would have noted it as it would have been so obvious. However, if it was a open secret, most people would never have commented. I do question why an already very tall man (even today he would tower over most) would want to become excessively tall.
Kind of liked her, though she rarely appeared in films I was watching. Stunning to hear how unhappy and tragic was her seemingly charmed life. She was lucky to at least have had friends such as Hepburn and Holden, both also charmed. Holden's life too, came to a really sorry conclusion.
I feel it would be nice if the pictures matched the captions. For instance he mentions Audrey Hepburn we never see her, and also Brigitte Bardot, and we never see her. A proper editor would be able to do this very easily.
@@trevorstevens2889 true, but the first time when they mentioned the friendship with Hepburn and showed her with a different woman. And they mentioned her husband, then showed Peter Sellers. Just 2 examples of the many unfortunate mismatches.
I was always intrigued by Capucine when I watched North to Alaska with my father. I felt she was extremely beautiful and mysterious. I'm so sorry she had to leave the way she did. Depression is awful. Are there any books written about her? I'm not having any luck finding one. Thank you for your story.
A beautiful entertaining actor who I enjoyed watching on screen. I was sadden when she passed away and I prayed that she had found peace on the other side of the road.
Ironic that Hollywood wanted Capucine as a replacement for Grace Kelly, and yet didn't choose to cast her in the type of roles they would have given Grace Kelly. I first saw her in What's New Pussycat, a film that allowed a lot of actors that didn't do a lot of comedy (like O'Toole and Remy Schneider) a chance to shine in a film that is still very funny.

What a gorgeous woman
I remember her in Walk on the Wild Side. No one ever walked down a stairway like that. She was magnificent. Everyone was nuts about Capicinne.
Stunning woman and a fine comic actress. What's New, Pussycat? is far better than critics say. Snobs ruin everything if they get the chance
Screw critics (and especially modern day critics ) What's New Pussycat is an extremely funny and entertaining film, and it has a great soundtrack that I listen to often.

Doesn't sound like you have either--many wives??
North to Alaska
She was perfect in North to Alaska. Sad that she had such self-standards that she didn't recognize that.
Great scene with young Fabian trying to seduce her in North to Alaska.
That's how I was first introduced to her magnificence. I thought her performance was sublime. You could almost feel the characters heartbreak, disappointment, and finally love for her man. Would love to have met her. I guess lonely and or depressed folks can recognize others who are like minded. RIP
She couldn’t have been more perfect for that role

True comments!!!!! 🇬🇧🐩🐩🐩🐩
indeed, she was an ethereal beauty, almost marble like. Perfect profile.
MM was killed, there's a new article about her file vanishing from the morge along with some of her organs on the day she died
She had beauty AND talent. A gifted woman but that wasn’t enough to save her from her inner demons.
She had beauty, and could walk and chew gum at the same time.

She’s absolutely gorgeous!
That first mention of Capucine’s friendship with Hepburn showed her with Claudia Cardinale, not Hepburn. Weird.
The pictures in these videos rarely match the narrative.
I agree. I loved the volume of the collection of photos of this video but the dis-synchronity of the photos themselves and the tonality of the narrator kills me.

It's strange to love the fact that someone had affairs.

Perfect description.
Exactly 👽
I watched all of your presentation on Capucine. I appreciate your dignified and sympathetic narration. Obviously she was underappreciated in general for many years and somehow faulted for not becoming the perfect replacement for Grace Kelly. I've always felt the American public secretly disliked that Kelly married Ranier of Monaco , felt rejected and hurt because she had come to embody cherished ideals. Now I believe Capucine partly became a focus of that public disappointment. Sad that she died as she did , but , somehow , respectable. I would like to comment further but many always seem to hate my perspective on anything. I will say , however , that an American tabloid newspaper recently made assertions that Ranier lied to Grace Kelly in various ways before she agreed to marry him. It was asserted he had no more money , and that Kelly either had money herself he could exploit , and/or her talent, fame and popularity would enable him to restore his wealth and royal stature.
I did as well
I could never understand why she married Ranier. She could have married anyone.
I read where she paid $30,000 to a dr. to write up that she was a virgin. So who knows what the truth is. Everyone in Hollywood knew very well that she had MANY AFFAIRS.!!
I liked her as an actress. I was saddened when I read of her death.
Soooo sad, and a clear example of the push and pull of physical beauty
Fantastic in north to Alaska ,shows what Wayne and Granger knew about the film public ,god bless her 👍❤️

Interesting biography and I love Capucine. But then, what was her controversial talent?!...
Good question!! 😏
Might be nice if someone could distinguish between Audrey Hepburn and Claudia Cardinale. Come on!
I caught that myself.
Your french pronunciation is cute ❤❤❤❤❤🇨🇵🇨🇵🇨🇵🇨🇵🇨🇵
Why no mention of her homosexuality, which she discussed in detail in her interview with Boze Hadleigh?
She was one of my favorite actors so sad
What a sad loss; this just goes to show, the grass is not always greener on the other side. Show business is dangerous💜💔
