30 years ago I went to London. I was in the center on a busy street and suddenly Peter O'toole was walking up to me. I was so surprised, I stared at him and just said "oh my God". Walking by, he smiled and just said "oh thank you!"

Peter O’Toole was a complex individual. It’s so typical of lesser people who have not achieved anything in their own lame lives to comment on this old clip as if they could do better. They pick away at his mannerisms, his chain smoking, his alcohol consumption, and his womanizing like bitter old spinsters sitting on a park bench. O’Toole was one of a kind. No one will ever live a fuller life, or bring so much talent and personality to the stage and screen again. The best part is that he couldn’t care less what other people thought about him. A life well lived.

But I still write and still love that masterful film. I became a lifelong fan of O'Toole and could always recall that haunting score like it was yesterday. As a teen I devoured his biography.

So interesting to see the styles of the 70s in their heyday. I was too young to notice when this was contemporary, and these days, it seems like our memories of 70s style exists as parodies of it. So it's interesting to see the authentic, unironic version in its natural environment. O'Toole's particular blend of lush materials in drab colors, his washed out tie and pants, that shaggy, careless romantic hairstyle and beard with those brass glasses, that's a look from that period that I thing was particular to the UK. I remember seeing Richard Burton sport a similar look, though I seem to rememver he favored wine-red over olive green. Regardless, I don't ever really see parodies of this style in modern recreations. Meanwhile, I'm kind of stunned by Dick's unironic wide collars and lapels, his huge tie, and the overgrown hair helmet that looks like a comb-over. I feel that this style works well for a certain type of robust body, but Dick is so elegant and slight, he looks like a scarecrow in all that tailored excess. It honestly never struck me before how handsome he is, because all I saw is the suit and hair that never suited him. But here, he reminds me strikingly of Paul Bettany. Of course, Paul wears fashions that flatter his leanness. Anyway, just one man's opinions.

@@captaincrunch8333 I may be biased, of course. My first experience of fashion in the early 80s was to shrug off everything 70s, from the hair to the bell bottoms and butterfly collars. It was interesting to watch the fashions in the show Mad Men abandon all the style of the 60s in favor of the square's idea of 70s cool. I kind of see 70s fashion as that, an attempt by the mainstream culture to integrate the hippies' rejection of that culture. It was a weird period in fashion. Anyway, I don't think it suits Dick. The hair especially. As a kid, I always thought of him as weird and square looking. It only now occurs that I was looking at the clothes, not the man. Of course, some people really looked amazing in those styles.

It was so confusing to me, as only ten years earlier, it was established that everything 70s was hopelessly outdated and square. Of course now, I realize it's all part of the cycle. In the 70s, there was a gigantic 50s revival, with Sha-Na-Na and Grease at the tip. In the 60s, the beau-arts of the 30s were revived.

Lovely to see Peter. I used to read Mad magazine back in the day. They did a parody of Lawrence of Arabia not long after it came out. What I remember is laughing at the cartoon of viewers falling over each other at intermission to get to a water fountain "water, water, water!"

LOL. My fave Mad Mag panel in that parody was when the Arab fighters are charging forward to slaughter a lot of Turkish soldiers & Lawrence shouts "Internal injuries only! Internal injuries only!"

There is something about a person who demands attention without even trying just because they are so good. O'Toole is one such person that he can make a minor script or line look good just by looking at it. There are so many actors today who make millions and BS all through their acting career with little dialogue and tons of action scenes. It does not make them actors.

Peter O’Toole gave many incredible performances and many pitted him against great actors for that elusive statue A Lion in Winter, Becket , My Favorite Year (tongue in cheek humor I loved), The Ruling Class (he played it straight but character and movie were gross) but one cannot deny how well he delivered the role Loved just about role he played His interviews could be serious or sad or rollicking good fun ❤❤

That O'Toole didn't win the Academy award, for Lawrance has consistently been a shock, except he was up against, the greatest American novel in modern history, " To kill a mockingbird!" Who was that actor? Yeah, he was a great actor too, but! I love that movie"the Ruling Class!" Deep sarcasm of it is unbelievable! ("Voltaire wept with laughter!" Me.)

The ending scene of THE RULING CLASS (1972) was the inspiration for the last shot we see of Wendy Torrance in the Overlook Hotel in Kubrick's THE SHiNiNG (1980), when she sees all the cobwebbed skeleton's in the hotel's darkened lobby -- an image right out of that earlier film, when Jack Gurney (played by O'Toole) is invested in the House of Lords. I saw THE SHiNiNG when it came out in theaters, but didn't see THE RULING CLASS until about a month ago, so it's been 42 years of me not knowing that Kubrick was purposely mirroring that image of the House of Lords filled with cobwebbed skeletons. O'Toole described THE RULING CLASS as a comedy with tragic relief, in another clip from his appearance on Dick Cavett's show. A hilarious-then-disturbing film.
