Film historian Robert Osborne, host of the Turner Classic Movie channel, comes by to discuss his favorite movies about the theater, as well as his choices for the most successful, and unsuccessful, stage to screen transfers in Hollywood history.
Theater Talk is a series devoted to the world of the stage. It began on New York television in 1993 and is co-hosted by Michael Riedel (Broadway columnist for the New York Post) and series producer Susan Haskins.
The program is one of the few independent productions on PBS and now airs weekly on Thirteen/WNET in New York and WGBH in Boston. Now, CUNY TV offers New York City viewers additional opportunities to catch each week's show. (Of course, Theater Talk is no stranger to CUNY TV, since the show is taped here each week before its first airing on Thirteen/WNET.)
The series is produced by Theater Talk Productions, a not-for-profit corporation and is funded by contributions from private foundations and individuals, as well as The New York State Council on the Arts.

RIP Robert--I thought he was immortal and would just go on and on. Some people just have that wonderful, gentle energy and he was one of them. LOVED his film explanations.

I sobbed when I heard Robert had passed… I learned so much from him. He introduced me to silent films too. “Encyclopedic” is a great description for him AND he was actual friends and a contemporary of almost all of the Hollywood people he speaks of. He was a true gem… I love and miss you still, Robert 💔

What a shock! I'll miss that professorial tone of voice coming from one of our foremost cinema historians. He was as much a movie star as his guests. This is a great loss to me.

@donaldmcauliffe7653 4 года назад

I met Robert one time l ask him what is his favorite movie he told many but his favorite was gone with the wind his second favorite was all about eve. I thank him for historical facts on movies he was down to earth l felt a loss when he pass away he made a difference in saving a part of our history god bless him

one of my favorite RO interviews ever. RIP

Robert Osborne is a legend, I've been watching him on TCM forever!

@jjneumeist89 13 лет назад

Correction: Wait Until Dark was released in 1967, three years after My Fair Lady was released. However, Audrey had worked for Warner Bros. prior to My Fair Lady, only once, in The Nun's Story (1959).

Robert Osborne. RIP, wonderful man.

I still remember when a person had no opportunity to see the great old films. We had 3 channels on T V and one of them was PBS. AMC was started after I graduated from college. I didn't see Citizen Kane before film class in college. TCM is such an amazing thing to me still. I am grateful to be able to see these films and learn of new ones that I love. I remember so well going to see the "extra credit" films during film class (I went to ALL of them...)and seeing "Bringing up Baby" for the first time. And the first time I saw "The Best Years of Their Lives" was on TCM as well as many other favorites of mine. These films enrich our lives.

I enjoyed everything about this interview but for Susan Haskins. Robert Osborne actually corrected nearly everything she stated. Obviously she did not do her “homework” and dig deeper into the rest of the story. Annoying I realize that’s my opinion only. Thanks letting me share my two cents.

@FanofBewitched 13 лет назад

this is so awesome! Thanks for sharing:D I love classic movies along with the theater. It would have been amazing if this would have been around when Vivien Leigh was alive. Then you could have talked to her. That would have been amazing! I'm a big fan of hers:) Thanks again for posting.

My favourite Theatre Talk thus far that doesn't feature Elaine Stritch. :) I was waiting for Streisand in Hello Dolly to be referenced.... I wasn't disappointed.

@chrisn7259 5 лет назад

It's ridiculous to include Streisand in Hello, Dolly! with Lucy in Mame. Streisand was too young, but in all other respects gave a wildly entertaining performance that has become beloved to all but tiresome Carol Channing apologists. Mame was an unmitigated disaster. Osborne, as an old friend of Lucy's, tried to make it sound like her performance choices ruined the movie...yeah, right.

@donaldmcauliffe7653 4 года назад

Robert felt a star was born 1954 was a great movie it should not been cut in pieces parts of it has been found put back together. He told me he felt that movie. Should be seen in special way

@calvinnme2 4 года назад

There was never a show on TCM called ""Robert Osborne's Great Movies" on TCM. He was either the host for a movie, or he was not.

@frederickcombs8661 5 лет назад

THE BAND WAGON is a very good theatrical movie

@DisneyAshmanDemos 12 лет назад

14:00 I personally think Audrey did a fantastic job in "Lady".

@ccaammiinniiito2 7 лет назад

(Cont'd) One more thing. Were there rumors of ill health circulating in Hollywood before this announcement? I was suspicious something was wrong by his absence on the small tube. In another unexpected departure, I remember wondering whether Larry King knew of any health issues dancing star Ann Miller might have had as he interviewed her from her home in Sedona, AZ, in discussing the death of Bob Hope.

Annie made all it's money back plus several million ....they trash it here. Ok, it was not the greatest but kids loved it. Check Wikapedia folks. Burnett and Finney were terrific!

@glennfromthebronx 5 лет назад

Well..I'd say that nearly every adult who saw ANNIE on Broadway....or even in a touring company show was disappointed by the movie. At a point, how much $$ it made shouldn't matter...I just find the movie PAINFUL to watch. (...and I like Carol Burnett, ALbert FInney, and even Tim Curry in the movie...it's just an overall "hot mess"....i.m.o.)

@meio4744 10 лет назад

They never show him on TCM in other countries. Why?

@reggaesoul16 11 лет назад

Robert Osborne is the homie.

@CosmicJesterX 9 лет назад

of the rails in full respect

@guinnberger2681 6 лет назад

Regarding the mention during the interview, of the film version of "Hello, Dolly!" ...the story I heard about the miscasting of 29-year-old Barbra Streisand as middle-aged, widowed matchmaker Dolly Levi, is that the director, Gene Kelly, perpetrated that goof. ...Among others. He was brilliant about dance, he knew what he liked, and he liked Barbra Streisand's looks and her singing ...illogical casting be damned. With the magical spell that certainly would emanate from Barbra's beautiful voice, and her charming and vivacious personality on the big screen, what could possibly go wrong? Those were far from the only errors in judgment he made with that movie, but Gene Kelly is dead now. Why belabor his failures?

@itstheburnz 5 лет назад

Don't forget Funny Girl made Babs a star a couple years earlier!! She was huge then! And it was a huge pay day too...

@glennfromthebronx 5 лет назад

...I just really wish that a filmed Carol Channing version...even just a solid copy of her "HELLO DOLLY" were available. I rspect the energy....the integrity of the movie production....but, it COULD have been so much better.

@lynnturman8157 Год назад

All that info in the description and yet you don't tell us the one thing viewers want to know the most: What year was this originally broadcast?

@danielstanwyck2812 7 лет назад

Osborne was great. Reidel should try learning a few things from him. He'd benefit, I hope. He seems a bit smug. And often more than not.

@marthacanady9441 3 года назад

Audrey was very good in My Fair Lady. She did great. Wait Until Dark came out after My Fair Lady. Actors are supposed to be able to act roles different from their real lives. Duh.
