😮 WOW 😲. The usual cookie cutter comments. Nothing about the actual series 🤔🥺. The grandmother, played a pivotal role in her life, 😭 such beautiful knowledge 😢. Queenie, is attractive, but not Vivacious and alluring as she is portrayed 🌺. Might or been better to have cut this in half. DISGUSTING the portrayal of her mother and uncle who are clearly not Indian. Him, something, I don't know nor do I CARE 😮😱😲🤢. The mother, I fear dreadfully, was just covered in some vile 🤬 makeup 😮. I think, that being Raped, she did not fear well playing the part of a rape victim 😢 why 😞 because if you have, you have flight or fright response, she eluded both🙄🙄🍋. For me, my favourite part, was when she was a child in India 🙏. Namaste 🙏

Yes what's going on frozen screen and no sound 😢

I loved this miniseries back in the day and Mia Sara is absolutely beautiful...but that has to be the worst fan dance I've ever seen.

First song name? cant find

The chronology of this is really messed up. Merle Oberon was already in movies by the time of the Private Life of Henry VIII in 1933. So the scene of her still doing the feather dance in 1937, by which time she'd been nominated for an academy award is just plain wrong.

Thankyou xxx beautiful quality

To varying degress our lives are stories we tell ourselves, and each other. Merle Oberon created a story as a means to make her way in this world. I was born in Tasmania. There were people who claimed to have known her there in her formative years. Stories about her having made incognito visits. These were just stories as is now known. Fact and fiction merge often in peoples lives. Somewhat amused by people who think this is a biopic of her life. Thanks for posting this on CZcams. I think I did see it on tv at the time but recall little about it.

Orientalism on full display-starting from the beginning with that awful sound track. Ugh

Lucian is cute but the way he kisses, thrashing his head side to side like he's devouring her face. Not very sexy. Sure, I've gotten carried away while passionately kissing someone to the point we're biting each other's tongues, but Lucian's kissing just leaves me cold lol

Too bad it freezes up from 2:17:20 to 2:24:28 when she is just stepping off the plane in India

wow that was so mesmerising and Beautifully done ..thank you for uploading this .

Kirk Douglas is a jew and know the word Yadhudi which is jew

White people don't know the words like Cita Gora Gori which means White woman

People need drink like coke mangoe juice orange juice with salt not alcohol it is very bad your health and the food is vegetarian diet in North India and on the Indian coast it is fish

Because India is very hot country

And so white people became Hindus

Yes Queenie Kelly is our people

No British raj because White people came to India before British raj 1857 to 1947 in 90 years

Thank you for uploading this movie. I once many years ago had it on video tape. My favorite all time movie was Wuthering Heights and reading about Merle Oberon and finding Queenie was just so sad and beautiful. Thank you for bringing this back for me.

This movie was a work of fiction, the real Merle Oberon was never like this. Merle Oberon had a movie career as herself, not under an alias. Merle Oberon was never in a private school in India subjected to misogyny, she was never exploited by any man, including some nemesis's father, there was never any family problems with her family and her real parents met in a tea plantation somewhere in Sri Lanka.

The most beautiful woman of the Eighties

It was aired in 87 maybe ,88 in Portugal. It was wonderfull, never forgot it.

Some Cita which means White people speak Indian Languages

The white actors can't speak various speak Indian Bhasa which means Languages

Albert Moses the actor should have said to Queenie about India

The video stops at 2:17 and restarts at 2:24.

I saw this on Lebanese TV in 1987 . I was 13. Now, watching it all over again. How time flies...........

Although, I'm only 12 in the Spring of 87. It's one of my guilty pleasures of all time.

God i hate Kirk Douglas...the fact that hes in this movie, especially given the subject matter, is disturbing...knowing his real life holy shit ***he raped Natalie Wood among other substantial accusations of sexual violence

Digging into the life of Merle Oberon brought me here. Such a wonderful movie!

This was a beautiful mini series.

awesome

At 3:40 my mom is the girl all the way to the right 😊

It's amazing how out of 1 Billion Indians , an Italian from Brooklyn was hired to play an mixed raced character from Southern Asia.

Citizens people in India 🇮🇳 Calcutta in Hindi city or has alone language I mean is the people there speaking Hindi or they have there own language

Are you telling me even in 1986, they could not find Indian actors to play in this that they had to get white actors in dark makeup?????

Yikes. All the brown face 😬🙁

thank you i could only find the hindi version now i can watch it again

Oh calcutta.. Those were the days

It really is a Masterpiece

Queenie is the movie/series I was waiting 25 years to see again.. Marvellous❤😮

شهبانوی عزیز اگر اطرافیان شما در کارها دخالت نمیکردن و کار را دست افراد کاردان امثال تیمسار اویسی و پرویز ثابتی میسپردید و به جای آن کارهای اشتباه و فاجعه‌آمیز مثل دستگیری مقامات کشوری (مثل هویدا و نصیری) و تضعیف ساواک و خواندن مقاله مسخره (من نیز صدای انقلاب شما را شنیدم)، به پیشنهاد ثابتی گوش می‌کردید و آن لیست (هزار و پانصد نفره) را دستگیر میکردید کار به این جا نمی‌کشید که آنطور مجبور به فرار شوید چهارتا شعار الله اکبر و مرگ بر شاه که ترس ندارد. بچه ها را به خارج میفرستادید و با قدرت شورش خمینی را سرکوب میکردید. انوقت در شرایط ارامش و ثبات به مردم امتیاز می‌دادید . امتیاز از موضع قدرت و نه ضعف!

True or not, it's a very nice film. Quite enjoyed it. Thank you for the upload.

I miss the 80s so much.

I just read an interesting piece in the Guardian about Oberon and it mentioned this series. So I went to CZcams, et voila! Here it is. Look forward to watching it.

Did people ride Vespas in 1931 Calcutta? Sorry, I won’t nitpick the entire film, but I just saw this in the opening scene.

Debería estar en español o subtitulada.

The true story would have been far better.

The ending is what kept the memory of this movie alive for me. Carving her into an English woman by denying her own heritage was racists. A great movie with a powerful message.

Remembered this very well and from a young age saw how racist people can be. The British pillaged India's wealth and have the nerve to discriminate them. Sometimes I wonder if it's only certain race life on this earth matters.
