The idea that women become unattractive as we age is absolute misogynistic nonsense. She is proof that we can be stunning at any age.

These interviews are phenomenal, it’s like time traveling. Her memory and appearance are so put together

My mom is 90 and I've been filming her for the last couple of years talking about life. It's really fascinating actually. My mother looks as good as this woman, drives around goes to dinner, goes to the theater. She's really doing very well.

She’s beautiful! You know back in her younger days she was drop dead gorgeous

She's 90, turning 91, and she's sassy! Awesome woman.

I haven’t even watched 2 minutes of the interview and I’m already in awe of how beautiful she is. Those red lips! 💄💋

just turned 54, love watching/learning from every single person you interview...I CHERISH listening to older people..our culture doesn't value them as they should. their knowledge and experiences and eyes from our past are SO VALUABLE! every day I understand the value of their life experience and LISTEN/LEARN. knowing our past, how things were and how they change is most important.

God Bless Rita... my Dad is 96.. wish I could get him w mark for an interview! He served in the Korean war. Folks in their 90's.. living history books.. 🙏🥰

This lady is completely flawless

All four of my grandparents were extremely depressed once they hit this type of age. Like somebody buy me a gun depressed. It’s really lovely to see somebody this age full of life and happy to have made it that far.

I miss my grandmother, she passed away a few months after her 98th birthday. Was such a joy to have a cup of tea and a biscuit with her .

Holy mackerel. She does not look like she is 90! She has aged very well!

Interviews with our elders are my favorite. Please continue to seek out these gems ❤

She’s stunning!

I think thats the most attractive 90 year old I've ever seen.

What a striking woman. Bless her heart. Her ability to recall information is greater than mine, and I'm only 32.

STILL KEEPING HER APPEARANCE TOGETHER N MEMORY SOLID.

Like time traveling....love the older generation interviews Mark.

My grandma turns 90 in October.. so angelic & appreciative of the small things. I’m so grateful to still have her here

Rita is a beautiful example of aging gracefully.❤

Wow never saw a 90 year old lady looking that beaufiful❤😊

I am SOOO happy you listened to our feedback after the wonderful interview with the 106 year old woman. These long interviews with the older generations are living history and absolutely incredible to listen to. I think you found a little niche to delve further into!

90 years old Ms. Rita so beautiful and inspiring and reminds me of my Grandmother

Wow, its hard to believe this lovely lady is almost 91 years old! She is so clear and has a great memory. Her story is so interesting and some parts are sad. Thanks for this great interview Mark. Very nice of this lady, to tell her story, she's amazing! 😊👍🌹🌹🌹

Rita is a whole smoke show at 90, so beautiful. Pure class, I love listening to her story. We need more of these stories Mark. Please?

Thank you for another great interview with a classy educated compassionate person. My mother just turned 94 this year, she's still driving, thriving and has fabulous stories about old L.A. that most people have never heard about.

What a striking woman, fabulous features. Her story is really part of American history.

Almost 91!?! No way!!! What an absolutely beautiful and fascinating lady. Such a class act. ❤❤❤

My moms a year older, still doing good like this gal. Depression era kids who knew what hardship and work was all about.

There's a lot to be said for maintaining one's appearance into old age, for both ladies and gentlemen.

Rita, you're marvelous! Your recollection at 7-9 years old during the war was amazing, especially about your relatiomship with your father, and the telling story of the Germans who lived above you. You're a facinating woman who values your family and career life! Thank you for sharing your story, you're a classy lady! ✨️✨️✨️✨️✨️

I love your interviews with folk who saw the majority of the 20th Century. Thank you Mark, I feel it is more than important to record and remember their stories , they lived in such a different world than any one born in the 21st Century.

She’s beautiful I’m only 71 and wish I looked as wonderful as her!!

Good morning, everyone.Have a great day........ Treat People the way you want to be treated

I met this 85 year old just last week. I love meeting elderly people because they have so much knowledge! I love hearing about the old days and even the WW II is extremely fascinating to me. I asked him what he could remember, if anything, from the war. He was 6 when it ended and 1 when it started so obviously he was a very young child and didn't remember that much. He saw it through a child's eyes and he clearly had good parents because he had no trauma from it. (My father who was only 18 months when the war ended, had trauma from the war. They say children that small can't remember, that's wrong. Every time he saw an plane in the air growing up he was terrified! Grandma said he used to cry hysterical every time he heard a plane during the war. Obviously he's parents had some issues which they past on to him. No normal one year old is afraid of planes unless they've experienced something traumatic.) The gentleman told me that the children had been aloud to act and play outside as if everything was normal. There were a lot of German Soldiers where he lived since they'd built several buildings to house the soldiers just some metres away from his parent's s house. He also had a memory as of yesterday from the Victory of Europe Day, also called VE Day. He remembered the English soldiers coming to fight the German occupation. There was an English plane being shot down just some hundred metres away which he also could remember very clearly. He found this very intriguing and exiting, he said. He never was afraid. That shows me how different we are as humans. My father being that terrified at such a young age, whilst this gentleman wasn't even affected. I really love listening to this beautiful lady's story, also. I could listen to people like this endlessly! I really miss having grandparents.

My 102 y/o GMA & is the exact same way👠💄💋 She still goes to the beauty salon every week stating, “Men love the color red b/c it’s sexy.” The inspo for my luxury consignment store & upscale fashion line!❤

I love this type of interview. Rita and those like her are living encyclopedias.

What memories! I used to love hearing stories from my grandmother who was born in 1904 and lived to be 91.

First of all she is stunning. This is one of my favorite interviews. I love to hear the older generation tell their life stories. I am in awe of her clear and precise memory. Please keep doing this type of interview. ❤

I was a late baby on both sides of my family; both my late dad and mom were born in 1923 and 1926, respectively; Mom was the 2d youngest of nine. Her dad and mom and her eight siblings all lived past 80, at least 2 made it to 90 or a little past. Thank you, Mark and Rita, for bringing back fond memories of my ancestors (I'm going to be 60 this Nov., btw).

What an elegant lovely lady!!! I’m loving these interviews with these older people. I worked as a CNA for over 20 years and older people just fascinate me!!! There is so much to be learned from them!!! My favorite ones were always ladies like this one. The makeup, the hair the clothes!!! I always enjoyed helping them get ready for their day and listening to them tell their stories as I curled their hair!! I have an entire photo album of pics and their memorial leaflets from their funerals. I’ve lost so many of them down through the years and each time I lost one of them it was like losing my mama!! Not all of them were great but the nasty , mean ones were very few. I had 1 lady that was just filthy rich and mean as a rattlesnake!! I took care of her in her home as a private duty patient and made 3X the money of a nursing home but my god it was worth every cent!! She actually took the cheese outta the fridge and sat on it in her wheelchair because one of the other girls that was staying there ate a piece!!😂😂. It wasn’t because she was raised poor either. She was just incredibly selfish!!!

Please interview more of the elderly as that wisdom is needed in this modern world!

Beautiful ❤ My dad is 92 going on 93. He grew up in Santa Monica, so did my mom, who is in her 80s. My dad fought in the Korean war. My parents do not like all the changes here in L.A. Neither do I.

She is gorgeous my goodness. Imagine looking that beautiful at 90! Girl I know when she was in her 20s-40s she was probably movie star drop dead gorgeous. I’ve never seen someone look this good at 90 she could still do some type of modeling imo lmao God please bless me like this

What a stellar smile ! And you will be back here in 10 years, no doubt about that.

My Father and Mothers birth year..the generation I love and cherished so much. RIP Mom and Dad.

Way too many people in the comments focusing on this ladys appearance. Walking through life with a superficial lens is a sure way to miss out on the most important parts. And you have no idea what you've been missing, I promise you.

Rita you're a treasure, I could sit and listen to you telling stories of the era you grew up in. You are very beautiful lady. My father was in the Korean war. He met my mom in England, she was an only daughter and had 2 brothers, but they didn't go to war as my grandfather had a farm. But my mom got married in England and then came to America, I believe that's where I get my independence from. I think she was so brave to leave the only thing she had known her whole life her family and country, to embark on a new beginning. Thank you for sharing your story. God bless you & happy 91st birthday 🎂🩷

I’m always here for your interviews with the elderly folks ❤

Rita!!! You seem like an incredible human!! I love your voice, I love your style, and I love your story. Thank you for sharing with us. 😊

A remarkable lady. I'm glad Rita is able to communicate and remember things as well as she does. Bless her.

What a beautiful woman. I am 6 minutes into this interview. I am watching her with my zoom on so her face fills up my iPad screen. Her skin is phenomenal.

I'm glad they have an elder finally talking about WWII. Mark has had older people and they don't really talk about fascinating historical events.

Amazing elegant lady. My dad is 97, served in WWII, same generation.

A woman of true wisdom, loved this interview!

You remind me so much of my paternal grandmother. Your tenacity. Your elegance and panache. My grandmother like all my grandparents lived through the great depression, WW2 and many other struggles just like you. My paternal grandmother like you is drop dead gorgeous. South Africa is very different and yet very much the same as the USA. Blessings from Sue South Africa ❤

She looks very well kept to be 90 and I see 20 year olds looking like they are 50!

I hope everyone is listening very carefully to this precious lady....war devastates.

I was so lucky to spend the last few years of my grandmother’s life with her, when she needed me. I needed her, more so. She died a few years ago, 2 months shy of her 95th birthday. The people of the silent, and great generation are like no other. So much class you will never see again. Rita, thank you for sharing your life with us. What a beautiful lady. Her makeup, hair, and style is perfection.

My dad is 80. He has told me stories for the last 4 years... I am going to begin recording them like this....I have a lot to learn at 48.

As a child and later as an adult, I knew several "contemporaries" of Rita from the Los Angeles of the 1930s. Each was (in their own way) marvelous at telling their stories about those times (and places). The name Earle C. Anthony featured prominently in many of their recollections but the cast of 'other characters' who crossed paths in their lives was immense. Rita is a gem. Thanks for this precious time with her. It was a stroll down memory lane. Bless you Rita.

real Lady, elegant and sweet. Wish her great health

She's gorgeous!!! Wish her many more years!

My Great Grandmother Pearl who lived to 102 was like this in her 90's. She would go on road trips up to Seattle with her friends, managed a large flower garden, and was an excellent conversationalist. I miss her.

Suprised to see this when I woke up. Good interview so far, had to roll one up with my coffee for this.

What a stunningly gorgeous lady. This is what taking care of yourself all of your life looks like. I garuntee this lovely woman has never smoked or drank excessively and has eaten a very healthy diet. She looks better than the strippers interviewed who are a fraction of her age, and God bless her shes extremely sharp. I hope for her sake she has quite a few yrs left.

What a classy lady full of a lifetime of history! Wishing her many more years of good health and happiness! Great interview, Mark.

This woman is GORGEOUS!!! I wish we could see images of her when she was young. 🥰

Beautiful lady. I can’t imagine how beautiful she was at 30.

I'm 53 and she looks better than I do.

Rita. Thank you so very much for your time and your story. Such a remarkable life. I am so pleased you sold those dresses for a small amount over wholesale. You gave so many women happiness which was so needed post war. ❤❤❤

I have to say she is quite lovely and a very beautiful woman. Btw…Joel Grey is still alive and had his 91st birthday recently. he was just in Wicked on broadway and his daughter is Jennifer Grey of Dirty dancing and ferris bullers day off. I think Rita and Joel should have a reunion of sorts, to say hello to one another and reminisce.. 😊

No no, she looks like June Lockhart. From lost in space. 1960s.

She is right ,i feel sorry for young people now ( i’m 67 years old) there are so many rules in place now regarding what you can and can’t say .The scourge of obesity is also present now compared to before . Interesting interview ,what a beautiful lady .

This is a generation that sadly is coming to an end. My mother is 92, and carries herself much like Rita. I admire the strength, beauty, and perseverance of women in that generation. Rita, you're amazing! Thank you for sharing your story.

This woman is beautiful and I could listen to her for hours!! My mom would have been her age if she had lived. Mark please keep interviewing the people of this beautiful generation!!

Of course she never had prbms getting work - she is gorgeous! And they say attractive ppl more easily find emplyment. In her case, I say great. The lady is so honest, I love listening to her and deserves all/any breaks she got. (My mom was kind of the same as hers: depressed, slept alot, didn't drive. You just have to roll like a battle tank over your hurts. This lady shows it pays to do so.) Many more years to her!

Thank you . I have worked in health care all my life and meeting people and learning about them, espcially the older ones has been nothing short of a genuine gift. I have met a man who was on the first attack of Normandy and so many others. Our stories are all so similar…. Fighting to survive , love and be happy. Grandchildren are the second greatest gifts.

She reminds me so much of my late grandmother who was born in 1929. Miss her so much. This lady is a class act❤

Really amazing to hear someone this age that has so much clarity, talk about that time. what a treaure. (Side note we see a president that is younger than her that couldn't hold a conversation like this. 🤦‍♀️)

She looks really good.💜 The older dolls can teach some women some things about femininity.

What a beautiful young lady. We should all be so lucky.

It is fascinating to listen to an "old person's" stories. With all due respect 🙏 mam. She is worldly, has her mind intact, and looks lovely. If God could only grant such longevity and good health to all earthly beings. Bless 🙌 you mam. Nice change Mark. Ty.❤ you had me at "90yo"

this is just amazing.. a real person .. no drama.. just real ..GOD BLESS Soft White Underbelly at 5.52M subscribers on the 1st of June 2024

These comments prove looks are everything.

I’m loving the elder interviews. It’s what I miss about working in nursing homes

Gorgeous lady... My mom was also stunning, driving, living alone, mentally sound into extreme old age - she died right before turning 100 . People truly age differently..

I love the old stories. . Because I can’t ask my mum or dad anymore .. they’re passed now ❤

This entire episode was captivating from the second I started watching till the very end I felt like I lived all through those years with her what an amazing story thank you for posting this my mom recently passed and I have wonderful memories I wish more people would take the time to listen to the older Generations this was great thank you for posting it

Rita was lovely to listen to. Very different than my own 95 year old mother views on w.w..2. She spoke more like my father’s side of the family. I sure hope I have as many marbles at that age. lol Yet I shouldn’t fear that. My mom lives alone in a new home because her previous home burned to the ground while she was in it. At 89 she punched her way through her bedroom window to flee the fire , and since then has fractured her leg and pretty much up until recently ran our 3600 acre ranch with little help. CALI GALS RULE!

So, beautiful, articulate, sassy, fun, sexy and warm. Wonderful interview, Rita is amazing!!!!

I kept forgetting her age throughout the interview! They say we have a biological age not related to our chronological age. Rita is ageless!!

I'll be 52 in 8 days. I'm glad I'm not turning 92, but I would love to have seen what life was like when she was a young lady!!!

I'm enjoying this interview so much! What a beautiful lady who reminisces about her life so articulately.

thank you for sharing this beautiful woman’s story and journey. Our society has lost its sense of a healthy connection with our elderly community. This connection has to be respected and appreciated. Most of our youth today don’t even respect their parents, let alone their grandparents or older siblings and elders.

Please, please, please do more stories like this. This woman is an absolute treasure and her stories and experiences deserve to be heard.

WTF she Looks better than me with 46 🤣 Classy!

Wow .what a beautiful woman still. I can only imagine back when.❤Also very smart.

I love these interviews with almost century-old people. Living history! More please.

Phenomenal woman. Beautiful and classy. Great interview. She has a good memory. Would love to watch more interviews with older people.
