HarryCarter Posted July 31, 2015 Report Share Posted July 31, 2015 This is quite groovy: raw footage of Lucy being interviewed about Carol Burnett for a CBS News profile in 1984.

Freddie2 Posted July 31, 2015 Report Share Posted July 31, 2015 I love how we get to see a little bit after the interview ended! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Luvsbway Posted July 31, 2015 Report Share Posted July 31, 2015 Oh she's just delightful here. You can tell she clearly loved talking about Carol. I liked how when the interviewer would be asking a questions Lucy's face who just light up with her big eyes. She's very pretty in this interview. I was trying to look at the pictures too. Was this shot in the den at Roxbury? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mmadluv7 Posted July 31, 2015 Report Share Posted July 31, 2015 I love how we get to see a little bit after the interview ended! Me too lol Shows just how much she relied on Gary to be whatever she needed him to be with others, to protect her- Yet she was so gracious and kind and continuously smiling lol just like a mobsters wife lol (smiling while the husband does the dirty work) lol Lucy does this thing where she clears her throat around 3:51, but its almost unrecognizable. It's just a silent back of the throat cough lol- it's not a swallow, but a silent clearing or cough lol to clear her throat- she did this a lot, and I FIND IT AMAZING lol , I guess it's a true skill that she learned over time when performing on camera, in front of a live audience-taping on film, and not wanting to disturb the flow of dialogue. I guess she developed the skill of quietly coughing or clearing her throat, I dunno if that's an old hollywood thoroughbred practice- but it's cute to catch when you ever notice her doing it. lol Another thing I like about this footage is that its tape and not film, which makes her look so realistic and live. You really get a feel of what it was like to see her in person with all of those noticeable features working all at once- Those eyes blinking and her bow lips making those perfect oval arches over her lips, and those high high eye brows lol Its just fascinating!

Luvsbway Posted July 31, 2015 Report Share Posted July 31, 2015 Well now I need to go back and watch this again to look for those things. She had the most lovely round apple cheeks. They really come out in this interview. That clear your throat commentary is fantastic. Also Lucy used to get cotton mouth a ton on interviews but the whole way through here without a glass of water. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've never experienced Lucy's so-called Cotton Mouth. Is it normal for other people to get this or was it some sort of weird medical thing because I've only ever heard Lucy call it Cotton Mouth.

Luvsbway Posted July 31, 2015 Report Share Posted July 31, 2015 It's an actual term. I always thought she was on some sort of med that was doing this to her. But if you look it up one cause is smoking. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Irene Kampen Tripp Posted July 31, 2015 Report Share Posted July 31, 2015 THAT was really cool!!! I never ever saw anything where they used this footage. I wonder why they did this? In any case, I like hearing Gary in the background and I loved seeing her. SHE looks so damn pretty. The lighting was good and her attire was very pleasing!! I loved hearing the HONESTY in her voice and the REALISM in its inflection. I do think in addition to the cigarettes perhaps a medicine she was on made her mouth very dry. Regarding the "clearing of throat", I always thought she was trying to look pretty for the camera. I never thought of her having to hide a cough or anything, just thought she was keeping her chin and head elevated to show her from her best angle. Interesting, I need to view this again to see if I detect a "throat clear".. I love how we all have our "LUCY ITEMS" that appeal to us and I enjoy seeing her through everyone else's eyes! I could watch those lips all day long! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mmadluv7 Posted July 31, 2015 Report Share Posted July 31, 2015 I believe this is after the TV Academy Hall of Fame event where she's inducted. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Luvsbway Posted August 1, 2015 Report Share Posted August 1, 2015 Was there a date on this because I would date it to 84' as well. The hair is the same as the TV Hall of Fame induction. I'm not hearing the throat clear though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HarryCarter Posted August 1, 2015 Author Report Share Posted August 1, 2015 This was taped on January 26, 1984, according to the website. The TV Hall of Fame induction was just five days earlier, January 21. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Luvsbway Posted April 22, 2017 Report Share Posted April 22, 2017 She just comes alive in front of the camera, but this guy isn't a good interviewer. Her rosey apple cheeks though. So pretty. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
