This brings back memories, we had a milkman deliver our milk once a week in glass bottles when I was a kid back in the early 1960's. It had cream on the top.
Imitation of Life was a wonderful movie, but so tragic. If it ever appears on television, I heartily recommend it. Just make sure you have plenty of tissues at hand. The last scene is a killer. Lana Turner can be very proud of this movie.
I like to play the game as a panellist and mute the sound when the profession is announced . I was full sure it was going to be maybe Irish Whiskey . I'd never have guessed, like the panel, the liquid was milk .
News Flash, paacer. You don't need to mute the sound. Just close your eyes for a few moments. The occupation isn't read to the viewer or audience, it is merely shown on the screen.
Why should a man hold a woman's chair or help her in her jacket, especially while he lets other men do it themselves? These "manners" were originally based on the idea that women are incapable, weak and in need for help. It's unbelievable that some people still confuse this chauvinistic hero-acting with "manners". I'm grateful for every man who lets me move my goddamn chair on my own.
Sandy Weinhold Your parents failed you in not teaching you the meaning of mannners, and I 'm sure not going to waste my time for their oversight. You are one angry child-woman who's going to wake up alone one day with a cruel lesson in life.
Imitation of life is still one of my favorite all-time movies. My mom and I used to sit up and watch it whenever it came on the late show and cry. What an actress!
Lana Turner - One of the greatest and most beautiful actresses in Big Old Hollywood. She was really one of a kind, acted so brilliant in many movies. I have seen them all, I loved her so!!
@@joealexandra7185I totally agree, it was obvious that she was acting the role , her intonation was always the same. Acc to me, she was not one of the greatest actresses to grace the screen when compared to Judy Garland, Rita Hayworth or Elizabeth Taylor.
@@m.e.d.7997 Yeah but she was already not being taken seriously so she had more to lose in my opinion. She did do one episode of the Benny Show though.
This was one of the most enjoyable episodes ever! And everyone on it seemed to have a wonderful time too! Arlene was her usual charming witty self.....and I don't think I ever saw Dorothy so happy on WML!
Imitation of Life was released in theaters in New York City on April 17th, 1959, it went on general release throughout the country on April 30th that year. The movie was a massive box-office success and it's a classic! Superb film! One of the important films regarding race, gender and social class. Nominated for two oscars in the best supporting actress category ( Susan Kohner, Juanita Moore). Lana Turner's career was in a bit of slump during this time, her career was revived and skyrocketed after the film was released.😊
I never got to see this show before today. I was only 4 years old at that time. But, I think my parents were lucky to be young and happily married and successful in those happy days. 🤧
That is one attractive assortment of breakfast cereals... ours from Kellogg’s of Battle Creek. The classic ads are fun. This whole show is a lovely time machine.
The milkman was very David Niven-esque and I'm sure did much to perpetuate the stereotype of those in his profession as having affairs with the housewives on his route. Classic line when John Daly says something about him having happy customers and he responded with "you have no idea".
Actually I think his distinguished air, demeanor, looks, and voice all contributed to throwing the panel off to the extent that they would scarcely imagine him holding such an ordinary job as a milkman.
Mel came across as somewhat heavy handed and too wrapped up in minor details, as when he was firing questions at the IRS Commissioner, going on and on about jurisprudence, etc., etc.
What's so incredible about that? This isn't exactly ancient history...I can remember 1959 and I don't yet qualify for Medicare. Our schools must have failed to give you young people a sense of the timeline of events before your generation was born.
Very classy move for Mel Ferrer to help Arlene back into her seat after she stood for the IRS guy. I suppose Dorothy sat down too quickly for him to help her.
Dorothy, frankly, was not overly respected in the entertainment industry as Arlene was. I'm sure Mr. Ferrer respect her outstanding stage career as a fellow actor.
She performs all of the subtle signs of attraction, touching her earlobe and patting her hair. During the questioning, her face also changed and she unintentionally made double entendres.
Yes I wish you were in color but, alas not to be ,, I'm a huge fan all my life 67yrs ,I just wanted to say I really appreciate a man who is stunning in his assistance to the ladies ,this is multi bano, god bless you all, what a pleasure 🙏
Many years after this, Lana Turner and Mel Ferrer would be semi-regulars on the nighttime soap opera "Falcon Crest" - their respective characters Jacqueline Perrault and Phillip Erikson were revealed to have been lovers in a secret relationship that had happened off-screen without the viewer's knowing it until after Turner's character had been killed off. Incidentally, both Turner and Ferrer would level accusations against the show's star Jane Wyman for having their roles terminated.
I remember when Lana Turner was on the show (lots of publicity about her and Jane Wyman not getting along) but didn't remember Mr. Ferrer. Thanks for the information.
Arlene plugs 'Green Mansions', which would expose Audrey Hepburn's fey side and lack of sex appeal to men. It laid a huge egg and was the beginning of her career's decline- after 'War and Peace', 'Funny Face' and 'The Nun's Story' had made her a megastar. However, simultaneously Lana Turner was opening in Douglas Sirk's 'Imitation of Life': the first time she pleased critics and her last big hit. 'Even her admirers would admit that she couldn't act her way out of a paper bag.' (David Shipman, 'The Great Movie Stars', vol.2)
John was wrong about the sugar content of milk. A cup has about 12 grams of naturally-occurring sugar (lactose). It's true that there is no added "table" sugar as in the soft drinks that the panel was discussing in conference. But we now are much more aware that some people cannot digest lactose unless they take an enzyme supplement with it, so even the milkman's qualification that it's not known for its sugar content is outdated.
Zac M. Woody Allen made a movie (if you can this one a movie) which lifted that Lana Turner story as backstory for a mother-daughter pair, "September".
I was thirteen and on vacation with my family and driving through this really nice neighborhood and commenting on some beautiful homes. The next morning one of those homes was on the front page. It was Lana Turner's home and the story of her daughter's feeble attempt to protect her beautiful mother.
Within the world of the theater, "a professional" means a working actor. Outside of backstage jargon, it often means a member of one of the learned professions: doctor, lawyer, and so forth. I'm sure he didn't have "the oldest profession" in mind, if that's what you're objecting to about his question.
My mom named one her granddaughter's Lana after her favorite actress Lana Turner. Her name is Lana and Jean is her middle name. My niece is 52 years old but doesn't know who Lana Turner was, before her time, Lol!
I love that this Manhattan panel in 1959 had such a tough time imagining anything you'd drink from a bottle that wasn't liquor or beer! Mad Men generation!
@@keithhyttinen8275 People started to dress less formally long before Reagan was president. I'm just old enough to remember some events from 1959, but if you aren't, it would be useful to look at newspaper file photos of street scenes from say 1960, 1970, 1980 to compare the way people dressed in public. You'd then see that your argument has a post hoc fallacy.
@@keithhyttinen8275 There aren’t many fans of stagflation, the disastrous economy prevalent before President Reagan. There’s not much to envy about confiscatory tax rates of the 1950s. The president who “won” the Cold War, also worked wonders for our economy.
With such an excentric, almost frivolous name, I thought that Mr. Milkman would have had at least a post as Embassador in the United Nations or the NATO or something to that extend. One really never can tell....
Yes, Mr. O'Malley-Keyes -- he must have been the most thoroughly dignified milkman ever! Between the panel clearly being way off track on his line and Mr. O'Malley-Keyes's own winning personality and sense of humor, this was one of the best and most fun non-celebrity contestant segments I've seen. The panel's reaction to the IRS commissioner was great fun too.
I always get a kick out of the slight way the panelists cheat when they name drop without posing a question and wait for the audience response to the name dropped ... tsk tsk ...
Looks----yes; class----- uh I don't think so.... Look her up. No doubt Carole Lombard wouldn't have died so needlessly young had she not been killed while rushing home to her husband because she knew he (Clark Gable) was cheating with Lana. She was morally bankrupt, but yes, very beautiful.
No one working on the 1948 MGM film "The Three Musketeers" could have anticipated that six of its stars would become WML MGs and two others would be future guest panelists. Besides Lana Turner, the other future MGs were Van Heflin, Vincent Price, Gene Kelly, June Allyson, and Angela Lansbury. The future guest panelists were Gig Young and Keenan Wynn. Vincent Price was both.
Lana Turner...in 1941 Dr Jeckyl / Mr Hyde at age 20 she actually overshadowed the main female star Ingrid Bergman in that movie....even tho Lana had the lesser role.
bthvnyt Have to disagree. Ingrid was never more beautiful or sensuous than in that film. Lana was lovely, but in no way overshadowed Ingrid. It's all a matter of taste after all.
@@dianefiske-foy4717Yes, that's a great movie, When my 2 sons were 10 & 13 we all looked @ the imitation of life together, I had already previously told them that the movie made me cry every time I looked @ it , they both laughed @ me and said it's just a movie, why would you cry, it's not real. Lol by the end of the movie all 3 of us were crying like babys,
@@reaginmx It's a showbiz cliche, but sometimes stress and suffering can raise an actor's game. Lana's only decent acting performances following 'The Postman Always Rings Twice' were after the Stompanato affair, in 'Imitation of Life' and the distinctly underrated 'Madame X' (1965).
I thought it was nice that when he kissed Lana's hand, she bent down to kiss him on the cheek. That was a nice gesture on her part, which to me showed she appreciated the gesture he made. Class.

My goodness...Lana Turner was such a star!
My all-time favorite guest:
The milkman!!
"A square party!" The panelists and John were so witty and seemed to have so much fun. I bet they loved their work.
I TOTALLY loved the Milkman! He was amazing! What charisma and no wonder they got a reputation. LOVE HIM!
Milkman -- Nial Edward O'Malley-Keyes (Nov. 11, 1915--Sep. 25, 1976)
Dorothy Kilgallen was so smart.
Imitation of Life was a wonderful movie, but so tragic. If it ever appears on television, I heartily recommend it. Just make sure you have plenty of tissues at hand. The last scene is a killer. Lana Turner can be very proud of this movie.
I love the little "spinaround" that Lana does just after she says goodbye to Arlene
Lana was still acting the part of the ‘ star’, extremely artificial & superficial. True legends are humble & yet magnetic.
Lana Turner - one of the greatest stars of all time
the milkman was a classic example of the panel being so used to guessing weird occupations, that sometimes it was the most mundane ones that got em.
+Leon Thotsky Yes! Illustrates the snobbery of the panel
I like to play the game as a panellist and mute the sound when the profession is announced . I was full sure it was going to be maybe Irish Whiskey . I'd never have guessed, like the panel, the liquid was milk .
News Flash, paacer. You don't need to mute the sound. Just close your eyes for a few moments. The occupation isn't read to the viewer or audience, it is merely shown on the screen.
Like the London taxi driver.
@@Walterwhiterocks LOL...people lie about the most trivial things.
Mel holds Arlene's chair for her. Honestly, the good manners on this show -- that's a huge part of its appeal.

I cried every time!
Juanita moore always improved anything she was in.
John Gavin is the draw for me. He was so handsome around this time.
Loved Lana Turner‘s signature! She seemed like a lovely woman and made sure to turn toward the audience as she was leaving.

Lana Turner - One of the greatest and most beautiful actresses in Big Old Hollywood. She was really one of a kind, acted so brilliant in many movies. I have seen them all, I loved her so!!
Loved your comment about Lana Turner….She personified…Glamour….Class and Beauty….Lana Turner indeed….Was a Star!
To me, her acting was always really stiff -- as stiff as her bleached permed hair.
She was very underrated as an actress she deserved an Oscar nomination for The Postman never rings twice , Bad and the Beautiful and Madame X
Miss Lana also was a very sweet and kind person...a real mensch Otto Preminger shouldn't have been so mean to her.

They often got the mystery guest because they were in New York plugging a film, play, or record album.
She really did sound like Marilyn Monroe with those breathy soft answers. It makes me sad that Marilyn never made an appearance on this show.
Wonder why not. Maybe Marilyn was too scared to do the show. She had terrible fears
@@m.e.d.7997 I think it's because tv was seen as less than in those days and Marilyn wanted to be a film actress

Wonder if the tax commissioner reported his $50 winnings and paid the tax....😅
Yes, make sure to have plenty of corn in your mental diet.

Mr. Latham, the IRS Commisioner, had perfect posture and a beautiful gait; so rare, especially these days.

He said he had something to do with both sexes.
Dorothy seems to think the milkman is an international jewel thief or something. He certainly looks the part.
Dorothy is always Navigator and often Pilot of the team questions.
Mel Ferrer was one of the best panelists. He didn't try to attract attention as some others did.
Mel came across as somewhat heavy handed and too wrapped up in minor details, as when he was firing questions at the IRS Commissioner, going on and on about jurisprudence, etc., etc.

After studying Dorothy carefully in many episodes of what's my line I would venture that she was a woman who loved men and loved sex.
Thomas Simmons ~ I agree!!!
Arlene looks stunning
She always does. Dottie looks as if she thinks she is attending a cocktail party. Maybe later, uh?
I find this WML episode as the most hilarious of all episodes because of that O' Malley gentleman. He definitely stole the show.
Certainly ranks up there with a huge group of them!
Dorothy certainly liked the cut of his jib!

Interesting to see almost the entire panel of self employed people bow in front of the Commissioner of the IRS... one of my favorite episodes....
My jaw dropped when I saw that!
I love Mel Ferrer and watch almost anything he is in.😀
What total class and manners people had in those days. It is so refreshing watching these old shows and reminiscing of a better world we lived in
I assume you're not Black, female or LGBTQ+. It wasn't a better world for everyone.
@kentetalman9008 you're right I'm not. Do I need to apologize?
Lana Turner: the reason why for years, young attractive aspiring actresses hung around malt shops in the vicinity of Hollywood or Broadway ...
And the casting couches.............
Imitation of life was the best movie & she played it fab !!!
They all look so lovely. Dressed to the nines. Elegant.
A beauty, Lana Turner had a smok'n body that was not too evident in the dress she was wearing.

Probably because it screwed with the mob...

Lana Turner couldn't be more lovely...

Arlene had the 911 on everything.
411
And I wear a generous splash of 4711
