It was great being a kid in the 70’s. Things were so simple and real. No cell phone or computer devices. People had real conversations with each other in person or on a landline telephone where you actually heard someone’s voice instead of texting etc. It was pre cable television and everyone watched the 3 major networks and that was it. Motion Pictures were something you saw at the local movies theater only. Made it all more exciting and we appreciated every minute of it. Intimate details of everyone’s life wasn’t common, public knowledge. We only knew what we read in the magazines or on TV shows or in the newspaper It was better that way. Privacy was sacred!

This was right before he blew up! 1974!...From 1976-81'....He was the Top Dog! I saw a wonderful interview with him from 2011, looking back on his life! The man had one of the fun lives' of all time! You can see he also has much regret when talking about Sally Field ..( he was 77 when he was on the Pierce Morgan show)..It was a great piece on Burt's life! Very touching if you are a fan of his!

In 1987, I did walk the red carpet again with my 5-month son in a tuxedo; I appeared on ENTERTAINMENT TONIGHT, interviewed by Australia crew. / The beginning of this 1974 ceremony, I met about 5 celebrities: Paul Newman, Joanne woodward, Raquel welch, burt Reynolds, Liza Minnelli, etc. I told a friend in 1979, on bleaches, at Oscars, I said "One day I will get inside there". who knew in 1986, I WOULD!

It was so sad to see her in the condition she’s presently in, at the Oscars 2022. Lady GaGa treated her so kindly. She was just 28 YO when she performed this.

Pam and her sister Gina ran an art publishing company at one time. I was honored to be one of their chosen artists. I met her brother Rod and pam's mom. Visiting their mom's home in Colorado was like entering a museum. It was filled with photos of Pam alongside the likes of Richard Pryor, Kareem Abdul Jabbar, etc. Nice family. Very down to earth, She signed my copy of a director's cut of "Jackie Brown". Great times.

Yes, there has been a dumbing down and it is noticeable. I hope that this will change in the future but then again, I have nothing to base these hopes on and I won't be here anyway to see it.

@a_leaf 3 жыл бұрын

Can you believe he was only 23 at this event while speaking. He appears much older and mature. To speak at the Oscars at 23, I think the fame came too quickly for him and his career just dissolved. He was likely satisfied with how far he went.

It's unbelievable how AMAZING that Liza Minnelli's opening show is! So little production and yet I doubt another opening show will ever even match this one.
