Moorhead responds to questions about behind-the-scenes interviews ("I don't believe in them, it breaks the illusion.."); the time element of theater vs. television; lack of discipline in television; her teaching school.
Part of a collection of films from Ryden's shows and interviews on KNTV between 1965-1970.

Celebrity worship especially by Americans, is appalling. It squeezes the last drop out of the actor's humanity. I do not want to know how many partners the actor has had. Why they are a mess in their so called private lives. e.g. For me Robyn Williams apparent suicide also killed his wonderful humour for me. That is for their friends and family. It's like a gift that latter is shat upon. NO fault of the performer but the insatiable media feeding celebrity worship.

A pure class act. Recorded around Sept 67. During season 4. Agnes was sixty seven here. Tragically she died seven years later from cancer apparently developed from exposure to radioactive fallout from atmospheric atomic bomb tests on location during the making of The Conqueror with John Wayne in the Fifties. Up to a hundred of the crew including Wayne in the following decades died from various cancers highly likely due to this incident.

@@marcosvalenca Agnes was a very fine actress, and she felt that playing the part of a witch was beneath her. And she was right. It was not a challenge, and she said she didn't want to be known as being a witch on the show. But, it also opened her to a new generation of fans, and it was a steady job, which was good considering her age at the time. BTW, she was the first female to host the Academy Awards (she was a co-host), and I think it was 1948. She was nominated four times for Best Supporting Actress, but she never won the award. She was highly regarded by other actors and actresses for her serious movie and stage roles. So, playing a comical witch was fun to so many who loved Bewitched, even though she had originally refused the offer to take the part of Endora.

Then, with a script, she knew Endora, from the inside out, to know exactly how the character would respond to all situations. That exactly describes Method acting.

@@daniellamcgee4251Although I thought it was also embodying the character and staying in character at all times when working on project. So still being Endora on her dinner break, at home at night etc. 24 hours a day being. In character. I could see that for a movie part for a couple months, but not an 8 season tv show. Their seasons were longer too. By a lot. I have the Bewitched box set. There are either 32 or34 (maybe even up to 36) episodes per season. Modern shows like Big Bang etc only have 22 per season.

@@lisascorp You are certainly more of an expert on Bewitched, and the characters, and probably the actors, than me! My father was a committed Method actor, and trained in Israel with the early teachers as a young man in the late 1950s. Method acting certainly didn't, and doesn't involve being in character outside of the rehearsal and performance time. Some actors do stay in character for the whole time on set, and even in their home life for the duration of the run of their performance, because they believe embodying their character completely, for the duration will help them with a more authentic performance. However, that is just their individual way of doing things, and is not part of Method acting. I hope that clarifies things for you! 😊

Moorehead died of uterine cancer on April 30, 1974, in Rochester, Minnesota, aged 73. Her sole immediate survivor was her mother, Mary, who died in 1990 at the age of 106. Moorehead had joined Orson Welles' Mercury Players, as one of his principal performers in 1937. She also had notable roles in films such as Citizen Kane (1941), Dark Passage (1947), Show Boat (1951), and All That Heaven Allows (1955). Moorehead garnered four nominations for the Academy Award for Best Supporting Actress, for her performances in: The Magnificent Ambersons (1942), Mrs. Parkington (1944), Johnny Belinda (1948), and Hush...Hush, Sweet Charlotte (1964). She is also known for the radioplay Sorry, Wrong Number (1943). She gained acclaim for her role as Endora on the ABC sitcom Bewitched which she played from 1964 to 1972. Her performance earned her six nominations for the Primetime Emmy Award for Outstanding Supporting Actress in a Comedy Series. For her role on the western series The Wild Wild West she won the Primetime Emmy Award for Outstanding Supporting Actress in a Drama Series. She should have received an Academy Award for The Magnificent Ambersons.

Yes, the kitchen of a restaurant can be something you don't ever want to see. My Granny never ate at restaurants for that very reason. She'd say, "You will never know if someone did something yucky to your food."

A classy lady, a classy actress, an overall demeanour about her from a bygone era. I watched reruns of this in the 80's as a kid. Also when watching historical classic films; she had such a distinctive name - it stood out. There she was in Citizen Kane, much younger, playing a young Charlie Kane's mother. I watched it because I heard it rated as one of the greatest films ever made. After watching it I understood why people say that! Superb!

True legend! Hollywood at one time was magic..full of glamorous legends ..true talent...great screen writers..no computers no cgi ..the only magic trick back then was great talent...and today we have none of those attributes.. thank god, the works of great legends like anges moorehead are available for people like myself whom don't identify with any of today's so called talent...

This is a time, when our spoken English; was very much aligned. It changed probably late 1970s and early 1980s. Into what it has become. It means nowadays, I have to more often than not; put subtitles on the screen. Best wishes, from Kensington and Chelsea; in London 🇬🇧 🤝 🇺🇸

Agnes Moorehead was so wonderfully frank and talented. She was a consumate actress and has left behind such remarkable performances. It is very hard to imagine Bewitched without her. She really made the show.

I agree with Ms Moorehead. She was a very good actress in the old time theater and knew her business. She seems to me to be a good ole be on time ole gal. Im in total agreement, BE ON TIME DAMMIT!!!!
