Wow, this must be the first time I heard someone mentioning Lithuania on American TV, especially in the 1950s/1960s, considering that at the time, Lithuania had been wiped from the map of Europe. That's nice to hear :) I loved Harvey's performance in Manchurian Candidate. An actor that deserved more recognition.
What a reality check on Laurence Harvey! I just saw The Manchurian Candidate for about the 4th time last night and his performance as tragic, warped Raymond Shaw just showcases what a brilliant actor he was. He's delightful here. Also, I think Dorothy's hair is about my favorite styling of all her appearances here. She looks especially glamorous in that dress and with those dramatic earrings. This is just before the bouffant concoctions she began to sport further into the sixties.
Laurence Harvey was a complex individual who gave some superb performances in many films. He had a chequered career and sadly died far too early. I saw him appear in many British A and B films in the 1950’s and even then he showed tremendous talent. Sadly, he was a tortured soul because of his personal life.
I recently saw an old episode of “Night Gallery” that Laurence Harvey starred in where he got an earwig in his ear that ate it’s way across his brain and came out the other ear. Almost drove him mad. Long story short - it laid eggs in his brain. So, instead of just one earwig eating it’s way across his brain, he had a bunch of them doing so, after the initial earwig left. He played his part very well.
Yep, never forgot this one- saw it when I was about six or seven and wanted to put cotton in my ears at bedtime for years afterwards. Even though I didn't know who Laurence Harvey was at the time, later when I became a movie buff and identified Mr. Harvey as the star of several classics, my first point of reference was, "That's the guy from "Night Gallery" who got a hole in his head!" Funny how vivid an impact a show can make on impressionable minds.
People were like that back then, especially in tv viewing audiences, because tv was still a relatively new medium. Everyone dressed up if they were going to something like the Ed Sullivan show. People were polite AND enthusiastic. It was a very different time.
Everyone is SO gracious on this show. I was a teenager then, and I remember how charming this "game" show - in particular - was. It has not lost its charm, even 60 years later!
Zvi Mosheh Skikne was a superb actor. He went by the name of Larry Skikne for a while before coming up with a British-sounding name, Laurence Harvey, likely pulled from the "Harvey Nichols" retail firm in the UK.
@@JamesRichards-mj9kw Do you honestly think that Frank Sinatra would have cast Laurence Harvey in a lead role in "The Manchurian Candidate" if he couldn't act? Sinatra was a perfectionist. Or how about Peter Falk, who wanted him to play a guest murderer in a Columbo episode?
@@ralphadamo1857 Sinatra funded Zionist terrorism. He cast Harvey because he was Jewish, and because he was zero threat to Sinatra as an actor. "Columbo" was garbage.
From Wikipedia Harvey was born in Joniškis, Lithuania, the youngest of three sons of Ella (née Zotnickaita) and Ber Skikne, Lithuanian Jewish parents.[7][8] His civil birth name was Laruschka Mischa Skikne.[citation needed] His Hebrew name was Zvi Mosheh. When he was five years old, his family traveled with the family of Riva Segal and her two sons, Louis and Charles Segal on the SS Adolph Woermann to South Africa, where he was known as Harry Skikne. Harvey grew up in Johannesburg. He was only fifteen when he auditioned to join the Entertainment Unit of the South African Army during the Second World War. Sid James managed the Unit and approved his audition. They become long-time friends. [9][better source needed] As the Mystery Guest on USA TV show What's My Line? screened 1 May 1960, he states he arrived in South Africa in 1934 and moved to the UK in 1946.[10]
"The Manchurian Candidate" 1962 wow you feel sorry for Laurence Harvey's character even though you really do not like him. He and Angela Lansbury as his mother were pretty memorable in and fire and water sort of way. "Honestly," she says to him in a particularly memorable moment "You look as if you head is going to grow into a point any minute." If you've never seen it -- see it. It''s not for the faint of heart, though.
Fashion note -- I missed this on earlier viewings, but for a brief instant at 0:49 or so it can be seen that Arlene's long "skirt" is actually divided as if it were made as two very voluminous trouser legs.
Doug w. Course not. We're all loving it. Great banter, great pals. I just wish Bennett would introduce him with 'and now our exhausted ruler....' An old Stan Laurelism. It's just his sort of thing.
So interesting how dressed up the 17 year old Ms. Bale is. I know it was the fashion back then, but her attire looks so fussy and stiff with that big skirt, the belt (helping create the then-de rigueur hourglass silhouette), yards of material--and it seems so constricting, especially for someone who presumably performed in a leotard or similarly sleek costume when performing. Anyway, I love these shows; among other things it's so eye-opening to see how women dressed back then in the early '60s before the youth revolution/British invasion came to America.
Early in his career, Harvey reportedly had a live-in relationship with actress Hermione Baddeley, 22 years his senior (who appeared in a supporting role in Room at the Top, for which she was nominated for an Academy Award for Best Supporting Actress). He left Baddeley in 1951 for actress Margaret Leighton, six years his senior and at the time married to publisher Max Reinhardt. Leighton and Reinhardt divorced in 1955, and she married Harvey in 1957 off the Rock of Gibraltar. The couple divorced in 1961.
To me, it sounds like Cerf asks "is it slapped or plastered on" which gets a "no". But later on, Cerf complains that he said "strapped on" and got a no.
Bennett often complains afterwards, which appears very childish. And Yes, he asked" "slapped on" and not strapped on. I know Bennett is popular, but not with me.
@@dianemutchler9213 I'm with you on that. I suspect Bennett was probably an essentially good person, but he could whine and pout like a 5-year old sometimes, and he simply isn't very funny when he tries to crack a joke, and the audience backs up that case. Just not a lot of redeeming characteristics in Bennett that I can find, although, as you said, he is fairly popular. I don't dislike him, I just don't find much to like.
He was a heavy smoker and drinker, Harvey died at the age of 45 from stomach cancer in Hampstead, London, on Sunday, 25 November 1973. His daughter Domino, who later became a bounty hunter, was only four years old at the time. She died at the age of 35, in 2005, after overdosing on painkillers. They are buried together in Santa Barbara Cemetery in Santa Barbara, California.
At 23:10, while Harvey is blathering (in most entertaining fashion), he says he fought for the South African government. Which he did, kind of, since he served, while still a teenager, in the entertainment unit of the South African Army during WWII. (Or so says wiki.)
Whoa, Ms. Francis is wearing SLACKS!!!!!!! I'm fairly sure this is the firs time. Remember, at this time, it was still seen by many as a bit too casual, or even déclassé. Viewers were still getting used to seeing Mary Tyler Moore in her capri pants on The Dick van Dyke show. She had to fight to get that past the producers. ...Also, Mr. Aumont is sporting a moustache. I've seen all the shows thus far, and the only other panel members I remember seeing with a moustache may have been David Niven, whose 'stache was razor-thin, pun intended, and Groucho Marx. Clearly, this was an indication that society was breaking down, and pandemonium was imminent. These kids today, I tell ya. ;)
Elizabeth Taylor absolutely loved her good friend, and fellow co-star ("Butterfield 8" and "Night Watch") Laurence Harvey. I recall reading (years back) that while Mr. Harvey was hospitalized (in his last days) a very distraught Elizabeth Taylor went to see him - and greatly surprised a floor Nurse, when she discovered Liz in the hospital bed hugging Laurence. This was in no way of a sexual nature - just a sweet friend bringing comfort to a loved one.
Lithuania explains the dark good looks. Laurence Harvey, as might be apparent in this video, was quite the party animal. He was very popular in Hollywood but was known to over indulge.
@@peternagy-im4be There are a few with light hair, but most Lithuanian men have dark hair -- very much like Laurence Harvey. P.S.: You must be Hungarian-American. I have a good friend who is a Nagy. He told me it's the Hungarian "Smith".
Laurence Harvey must have been quite an interesting fellow. The people who worked with him certainly had very polarized opinions. Elizabeth Taylor loved him. Jane Fonda hated him. Everyone seems to have fallen into one camp or the other.
I can think of two general types of gun holsters -- those worn on a belt round the waist, and shoulder holsters, where the holster begins at just below chest level, but whose strap goes over the shoulder.
Shoulder holsters. The strap goes around like a vest strap right across the top. It's usually designed to hold two weapons so it's put on over your shoulders.
“velvet whip,” and “the Marquis de Sade of panel moderators.” That was Bennett Serf’s introduction of Daly. Now that’s funny and slightly daring considering that the year was 1960. For anyone who’s clueless, google de Sade ASAP.

@@MrYfrank14 Very true. And put you on A List of People To Watch. I got kicked out of a knitting class when the instructor found out that I was a gun owner. How's that for a knee-jerk reaction?
Harvey is terribly charming omg and his different accents are irresistible.
I was about six weeks old when this aired: that said, Laurence Harvey was gorgeous!!!
I couldn't imagin that Laurence Harvey was such a funny fella.
You should have seen him on Celebrity Bowling. I'm not kidding!
Same here! I know him only from The Manchurian Candidate where his character was "not lovable"
@@ElizaDolittle, not lovable? Raymond Shaw is the kindest, bravest, warmest, most wonderful human being I've ever known in my life.
Thank you for posting, Laurence Harvey was a beautiful man.
Absolutely Brilliant !! I love Laurence Harvey !!!!
Ya it's too bad that he, Laurence Harvey, died at a relatively young age! He was good playing William Travis in the movie "The Alamo".
laurence harvey is so gorgeous with a lovely accent
Such a beautiful and talented man.
@jessie james Many accents, all of them false.

Whew was L. Harvey hot in ButterField 8 with Liza Taylor. I like when she digs her stiletto heel into his leather shoe.
RIP Laurence Harvey, 50 years ago on 25 November 1973.
am i the only one that gets a kick out of daly and bennetts lame jokes? I find it funny.

The holster man reminded me somewhat of the late Rush Limbaugh when Limbaugh was heavier.

How do you use a gun holster to restrain someone?
Think about it.
I'm wondering if they have a list of things to pick from, I see them always looking down maybe at a list
They have paper and pencil to write down the contestants answer. Then try to figure out.
I think they are checking their notes.
Why dont you play solitaire ?

Now Jeàn Pierre Aumont had to cheat to guess Mr Harvey . He peeked.
At 13:05 shouldn't Dorothy have got a yes not a no?
