Peter Ustinov was a unique treasure, I wish more of his interviews - especially full Parkinson interviews were available with the visuals as his expressions were so much part of his storytelling.
Here is a link to some of the visual representations of these interviews. They aren't complete, but at least it's something! ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-SfxxEfdmn_Y.html
Peter Ustinov god bless him was a talented genius and his impersonations of people he knew were outstanding. I could listen to him for hours and always looked forward to him appearing on talk shows especially Parky. We will never see a man with his talent again.
I like the fact that the band played the theme from Peter and the Wolf as he made his entrance. Ustinov is always fun to listen to. Thanks for posting.
Figarohey : Exactly my thought ! There may be one somewhere...🤔 Dudley was so funny doing his impressions of Opera : " Die Flabbergast " was SO good. And with Peter, here , they were both improvising in a wonderfully effective way : how many of the current " celebrities" could do the same ?🤔 Dudley's suffering was heartbreaking, especially for such a gifted musician.🎼🎹💙 🇬🇧⭐🎼🎹💙🌈🇬🇧
Peter gives SO much , in conversations. His storytelling is so entertaining😊, And yet, still can be absolutely serious about UNICEF, etc. I read his book, " Dear Me", and have just found a recording Peter reading it, on RU-vid😊📖. Recommended.👍. 🇬🇧⭐💙🦉🎼🌈🇬🇧
As a.... portly youth I saw the film ' Death on the Nile. Not only did I feel privileged to see the masterpiece on the silver screen, I had found my very first Idol. I researched everything Ustinov. I want(ed) to BE this genius when I grew (grow) up
@@lovingsongs1762 I guess if a huge organisation like U.N degenerates, there's not much one person can do, except Whistle-Blow, perhaps....🤔😢 Years ago, U.N. seemed like a " toothless old buffalo "...😢 In what ways has it declined ? 🤔 Is there corruption ? Is it in the running to be put up as " World Government"? Or would that invite Tyranny , or takeover , by a Theocracy, perhaps ? We've seen how top-heavy Bureaucracy in E.U. is counter-productive, so what chance, U.N. ?🤔😢🙄 Have they had a vote telling the warmongers in the Middle East to STOP🔥 THEIR 🔥 MADNESS🔥, for example ? Or is the Veto System delaying progress ? 🇬🇧😢🦉🔥🤔🇬🇧
Compare a raconteur like Peter Ustinov to some of the self-promoting nonentities paraded before us on today's chat shows. Will Graham Norton never run out of second rate mimes pontificating about their latest roles?
I love audio, and am an ardent admirer of Ustinov, but why do media celebrities ((incl interviewer) feel the need or compulsion to say "I mean" or "of course" at least once in every second sentence? It was disappointing to say the least that someone as eloquent as Ustinov could not resist the practice. I wonder if anyone had the fortitude to point it out to him.
in order to fit in at school, Peter picked up the English idioms probably to a fault, trying to be absolutely as English as possible ( Including those little conversational tics that you mention). He had a miserable time at school, they teased him thinking his name was German not Russian. This was just after World War One.
Great Actor! Sad that Now All the Oskar Winners ARE very LOW TALENTED and even without Education! So we can explain why for these actors is More Important HOW THEY ARE DRESSED !!! We have to change the level of appreciation.
The poster probably probably tried to add it but couldn't or copyright reasons. At least you can hear it so enjoy it and don't be moaning. You can see clips of this interview from another RU-vid upload that was part of a documentary of his interviews with Parkinson broadcast in 2005.
This was broadcast around 1977. It was most probably recorded on reel-to-reel or cassette tape. Lie back, close your eyes and visualise it for yourself. [Another Aussie in Aussie]
if ww2 had not happened we would not have lost India if we had not lost India Pakistan would never have been created. and if Pakistan had not been created this country would not be full of legal or illegal immigrants sucking the blood from this country (and p,s it has nothing to do with race its to do with why they come here)
