Always had great respect for Jimmy Stewart. Fine actor, fine man. Hudson had some nerve treating Jimmy that way especially considering he had his own secrets that would have been a lot more damaging than a toupe.

While he was quite troubled by his wife's death, his decision not to have the battery replaced was due to risk and age. He did develop a pulmonary embolism that caused a heart attack, which caused his death. The embolism is a rare side effect of having a pace maker. The pacemaker cannot stop an embolism or prevent a heart attack, just cardiac arrest.

I love Mickey Rooney. I saw him once in a play in Chicago. During the performance an elderly woman seated in the audience shouted out, "Hi Ya, Mickey!" He broke character, went over to where the woman was, held her hand, thanked her for the greeting and for coming then seamlessly got back in character and finished the play. What a class act!

A long long time ago, Jimmy Stewart was a board member or owner of a small company based in Fort Worth, Texas. When he attended meetings, he did not wear his toupee. So I don’t think he was so vain that that would have bothered him. When you’re in the movies or on TV, you bend to the wheel of the studios and where to pay if you balding

Jimmy Stewart came to Fort Worth, Texas to film a movie at our local air base. While he was here he fell in love with our zoo and he continued to support our zoo for the remainder of his life. He also had a bank account and a credit card at the bank where my husband and I worked. Marlon Brando also had a credit card and bank account with us. The reason I know this is because Mr Brando called our credit card center on day and I happened to receive that call. He asked me to turn his credit card off because his son was in Vegas running up a rather large bill. Yes, Mr Brando’s voice was very recognizable.

Jimmy Stewart worked in the US Air Force as a General in his later adult years. I believe in the Reserves mostly. He was an Aviator in World War 2 and may have had PTSD (post traumatic stress disorder) after the war for a time. I think he delved into his acting career highly after the war to help himself forget the war and rebuild his life. He was happily married for decades to one wife. Yes, we always watch "It's a Wonderful Life" at Christmas annually.

I wrote in another place about going to church where Jimmy Stewart was a member. He did NOT wear a hairpiece when he went to church on Sunday. He was definitely not "ON" for the public on those Sundays. However, when he did the Lessons and Carols Christmas Services in 1980 and 1981, he did wear his toupee, and he knew that the audience would want to meet him and shake his hand. Then, he was "ON" for public consumption. See him almost every Sunday -- alone, his wife did not come -- Stewart seemed a sad personnage. But I feel so grateful I got to see him so often and to "perform" with him for the Lessons and Carols Services. BTW, Ralph Edwards of "This is Your Life" and Greer Garson also attended occasionally.

Rock Hudson may have been a star as well, but obviously not so much of a 'gentleman', to have said what he did to the media about Jimmy's hairpiece (or wig) and by doing so publically embarrassing Jimmy Stewart. I don't believe that Jimmy was that 'precious' about himself, but he would have felt humiliated, by his co-star. So! IF I had to choose between the two, I'd choose Jimmy Stewart before Rock Hudson, every time. While I have enjoyed many of the shows with Rock Hudson, to me, Jimmy Stewart had something 'extra special' to offer. A very interesting insight. "Thank you" so much Neil xx 👔 ⭐👋

What a cruel thing for Rock Hudson to betray a fellow actor like that simply to ingratiate himself. I used to feel sorry for the way Rock was treated by the press at the end of his life, but perhaps it was a case of "what goes around, comes around". James Stewart was always my favourite actor and sounded like a fine gentleman in real life. To this day his name in the cast ensures I will always watch a film, including "It's a Wonderful Life" every Christmas, despite always thinking I couldn't possibly watch it again. I think my favourite film of his is "Harvey", although it's very hard to choose. Seems the actresses weren't the only ones who had to watch their backs in Hollywood. Thank you Neil for an insight into the sad reality behind the Hollywood glamour.

Besides being an incredible actor, Jimmy Stewart served as a flight commander in a bombardment group in missions over Germany. He earned great respect from his men and won several citations, including the Distinguished Flying Cross. His wartime services scarred him so much that he considered giving up acting in exchange to going back to Pennsylvania to run his family's hardware store. He was convinced by Frank Capra, to appear in his film, "It's a Wonderful Life". The emotional scene near the end of the film was real. He wasn't acting, there. Stewart was a good man, besides being an incredible actor.

And Rock Hudson was a different very handsome hero... I THINK Rock Hudson played in a wonderful movie, Giant. He was very good in it. It wasn't like his Doris Day/ Pillow Talk movies ( which as a kid were great to me ). My all time favorite movie is It's A Wonderful Life with Jimmy Stewart. I wouldn't have cared if he had a lot of hair or not, he was my favorite movie star.

I love Jimmy Stewart in It’s A Wonderful Life❣️❣️❣️❣️It’s my favorite movie of all time❣️❣️❣️I have watched the movie every year since I’ve been 5yrs old. Not understanding @ that tender age the message of the film, but watching the movie always felt like a warm hug. As grew up & understood the message in the movie I fell in loved with the movie all over again. I feel like Jimmy Stewart & Donna Reed were the only two people perfect for their roles. As to Rock Hudson - we have a saying in the states “ what happens in Vegas stays in Vegas “ to bad Rock Hudson didn’t give Jimmy Stewart that courtesy!! After all people had given Rock Hudson his privacy when it came to his private life.

I was a great Jimmy Stewart fan, from his cowboy films to Alfred Hitchcocks films. He was a genuine war hero and a clean living and faithful husband. One the other hand I also really liked Rock Hudson, he was so good to look at......Both super men in their own way.

Two of my favorite movie stars. Both legendary actors. See there’s always pettiness in society.

Still love Jimmy Stewart, such a versatile actor in serious drama or comedy. And he always struck me as a genuine gentleman with no side to him. I knew he’d served in WWII. A bit mean of RH I think, he may have been handsome but arrogance and unkindness to others negates that in my opinion. By the way meant to say you’re looking very dapper today.

Jimmy Stewart was my favourite actor and a really good human being. Look at his war record, he came to the UK and enlisted. The poem he wrote about his old dog Beau that he read on the Michael Parkinson show had the country in tears.

These back stories are excellent Neil, and i'll go and seek out the Parky interview. I never knew that was a hairpiece! Just goes to show the 'magic' of Hollywood and how we can all be fooled. As a young man, Rock Hudson wouldn't have been good at steering through the steely Hollywood press - something he would have to do later in his life. Just 😂😂😂 at the toupee sailing down the river!!!

Hello everyone 👋 and to you Neil 👋 I love it! A video on old Hollywood! Thank you! I enjoy movies from both of them, but do favor Rock Hudson.

Rock Hudson behaved very badly in imho. Jimmy Stewart deserved more respect. Regardless, it is a wonderful Movie.
