It doesn’t matter what people thought of Mickey Rooney. He was a devoted and true actor, as were the other actors of his generation. He did whatever it took to make a living. Might’ve said things here and there he shouldn’t have, but he left this world nearly broke. Yet, he kept his integrity and dignity.
Mick was using her, it's sad you can't see that. Ol Mick used to brag about bedding younger attractive women and specifically that he was "going to fuck them in the brown" lmao.
John Dalton I agree. I mean sure it’s insane and awkward but I loved it.. in fact I would rank it in the top 10 of Dave’s best or at least most entertaining interviews.
@4:25 you can see her kinda grind her forearm into his shoulder when he says something she doesn't like. If she did that on national tv, imagine how she was to him in private.
Not the best appearance, especially because of Jan being there. But if you look at the complete career of someone, Mickey Rooney was the most talented person to ever come out of Hollywood.
I know Mickey was married to Jan, but, his best friend was the best singer in the world I think her name is Judy. Mickey was the most egotistical person I ever seen. He and Judy were complete opposites when it came to ego's. Mickey's career started to nose dive after he was top box office for I believe the 3rd consecutive year. His reputation with women was not appreciated by the Moms and Dads of the World, so his box office started to decline, and Judy's was rising fast. It didn't take long before Judy past him, for good. Mickey was one of the all-time talents that ever stepped in front of the camera, as was Judy. Judy was one of those very few performer's that had that something extra that ELLEN TERRY USE TO TALK ABOUT.
Who sits on her husband's lap on a talk show and thinks that's proper etiquette? No class in plugging her record and interfering with his interview. I think Mr. Letterman was appalled. Gold digger was the first thought in my mind. I feel bad for Mr. Rooney in this episode of his life. May he rest in peace.
Thanks so much for all the great uploads! Any chance you might upload some of Merrill Markoe's Late Show appearances? I believe there were either four or five-of course, I'm sure you're the one to know the exact number.
Mickey pissed away all his money because he suffered from a gambling addiction. He filed for bankruptcy 3 times in his life. The first being in the 50s. Mickey was also an ego maniac. He couldn't get work in Hollywood movies after the war because he was difficult to work with. When the studio system collapsed Mickey was out of luck
What do you guys think about him saying he was experiencing elder abuse. I don't know but he was hard live with i heard and he has been married nine times. I don't what to think.
This has some weird and uncharacteristic edits in the first segment. Original edits, I presume, as Mr. Giller seems to be a strict and ardent archivist.
Hope you'll someday show us the more controversial Mickey Rooney appearance from 1991. www.deseret.com/1991/6/9/18924792/rooney-says-that-letterman-played-stupid-host-tricks
So that is the infamous Jan when she was younger. It is obvious she was ambitious and trying to get her career promote at every step. As for the allegations of senior abuse, I chalk it up to family squabbles over a disappearing inheritance. Rooney seems to have had a touch of dementia in his later years, and from experience with a parent who had dementia (also from watching Rooney's reality show) they can dish out verbal abuse but not take any response to it. I'll give her credit for putting up with him far longer than any of his other wives.
I think they were a good couple. Its saden to see Jan & Micky Rooney break up. I love when Jan sit on Micky's need for as long as she does. So Cool. But It doesn't look like the Jan I know. But Jan got more foxy with age. But she was homesome then.
@@diceguyg3799 god is in all of them so we shouldnt wish them any pain. But whos gonna listen. If she remorses it it wont be on life review. She like all will have life review. It is to make us better to move in higher plane when some failed There vibration have to bring vibration up higher. If she hurted him she see it and she will feel it. A normal person would remorse it. She probally wont cause she had no empthy her vibratiion will put her in same level of world she done to him. Has to learn to realize ahe same and worth more then her ego. Some can stay in lower level which is hell lower part of heaven. But doesnt have to stay there. She and his son will judge them selves.
Did Jan really believe Dave wanted HER on the show with Mick?
No but Mickey probably got some "brown" that night lmao

Damn right ❤
Mickey was a great person I loved his films.
Poor Mick...He apparently couldn't see how that miserable woman was using him.
Why are they laughing at him
She probably gave good head
Jan liked the Rooneys was in a relationship with Mickey Jr, then landed Senior.
Mick was using her, it's sad you can't see that. Ol Mick used to brag about bedding younger attractive women and specifically that he was "going to fuck them in the brown" lmao.
See, now Dave likely thought this segment bombed. I found it hysterical. When Paul said "Leave me outta this." So great.
John Dalton I agree. I mean sure it’s insane and awkward but I loved it.. in fact I would rank it in the top 10 of Dave’s best or at least most entertaining interviews.
@@TaborTalk His wife is a piece of work.
Rooney could make any interview fun and exciting,
I love how Rooney starts messing with Letterman right from the beginning by rearranging the furniture.
Read the Hollywood Reporter article on how Jan and her son fleeced Mickey Rooney.
Wasn't this the woman that beat him up and stole from him when he was elderly?
No.
it's her
@4:25 you can see her kinda grind her forearm into his shoulder when he says something she doesn't like. If she did that on national tv, imagine how she was to him in private.
Yup
No it was his son
I absolutely adore anytime Lederman interviewed a classic Hollywood actor.
“Lederman”?
@@dongiller Doop! Letterman. I had one too many Mountain Dews last night.
"You know you're going on a long trip"
"I wish I was leaving now"
"A picture with Slim Sommerville and Zazu Pitts called Lovebirds."
Poor man with that wife of his.......sad....

ONE OF A KIND, NEVER TO BE DUPLICATED !

Why are they making fun of him? His parents started him in the business. He was top shelf talent and should of been respected.
MICKY ROONEY CAN PLAY ANYTHING
I agree. It pisses me off that he was disrespected.
so her name is Jan Chamberlin. That's what I wanted to know
Excellent Paul quip at 9:45
Jan was such a horrible person. I pray someone treats her the way she treated Mickey....
Mickey pissed away all his money because he suffered from a gambling addiction. He filed for bankruptcy 3 times in his life. The first being in the 50s. Mickey was also an ego maniac. He couldn't get work in Hollywood movies after the war because he was difficult to work with. When the studio system collapsed Mickey was out of luck
Peaking at 18 and clutching for attention at 64 is never a good luck. There's little difference between Rooney and Uncle Rico.
Lol the boom mic blatantly in the shot after Jan comes on. Just relentless.
That was very hard to watch ….
His art school sounds awesome
bill simmons posted ur video!
two thumbs down? ebert and siskel must be here
Dave is GOAT
I notice a few edits here. An obvious one at about 2:15.
Yeah-what’s up with that?
Man, the amount of women this guy had.
The very definition of cringe. 10:35 body language kicks in hard.
What do you guys think about him saying he was experiencing elder abuse. I don't know but he was hard live with i heard and he has been married nine times. I don't what to think.
He also married one of his son's wives too..so he was no saint.
She may be the dumbest gold digger ever
Something tells me Mickey was abused first 15 years of his life and last 15 years

Babes On Babes lol
Mickey's subsequent appearance in 1991 was quite something too ua-cam.com/video/c3dh_wzyMxI/v-deo.htmlm53s
I almost feel bad for this dude. Pretty sad.

Rooney was a fool, full of himself.
@@dongiller aka must-see TV.
Simmons
I agree with Jan. She wasn’t the greatest singer. That honor went to Judy Garland. Nobody could touch her when it came to singing a song
That damn wife...

So Micky actually thought she really liked him??
She's so annoying and it was very awkward that she was out there.
👃
Although he had a great career! He seems a little bit of a mess here?
Ol Mick was a dirty dog lol
I think they were a good couple. Its saden to see Jan & Micky Rooney break up. I love when Jan sit on Micky's need for as long as she does. So Cool. But It doesn't look like the Jan I know. But Jan got more foxy with age. But she was homesome then.
Wish she had gotten off of his knee and sat her
tail down in a seat!!!
