Love it.

'Nuts! Son of a BITCH!' ~ 0:49 ~ Carole Lombard.

Oh God! I LOVE HER!!

[macsnafu]

It's interesting to see Carole go out of character when she messes up her lines.

[NatureFillsMe]

Carole Lombard is one of the persons I'd like to meet. I don't really know why, but she just looks like a smile-creater person. And I mean in and out of the set. Isn't it a shame that she died so young.?

[jg0582]

I love you Carole Lombard !

[EweTooub]

Godfrey.



[HollyGoLightly1978]

OMG THIS IS AMAZING. I love you, Carole Lombard <3

[fangbanger31]

Carole Lombard was so fantastic. God bless her and her swearing. Everyone take a shot for The Profane Angel, bitches!

[diablogirl59]

Thank you for posting this! My Man Godfrey is one of my favorite movies--I love William Powell! Wonder why they didn't add this to the Criterion DVD?? It would have been wonderful plus!!

[artiefun]

She was a great lady. God Love Her.

[amylh322]

Looks like my thumbs-down made this un-commentable on (Or however that sentence should go!)

To the person who talked about "old nasty humans"- i bet you don't like it when sinners come to church. Funny, the "worst" people were the ones Jesus hung out with. GIve me a ragamuffiny human any day over a "pristine" statue! :) You be sure to never read any books about these stars, your head will surely explode! ;0)

[amylh322]

Hopefully someone has already seen and commented on this, but it's cracking me up that on a blooper reel, someone spelled the name of the film incorrectly ;-)

[auroratita]

wow, where did u get this? i didn't think they safe the bloopers from back then :)

[IngridBergmanRocked]

LOL! Love this...thank you:D

[AmericanSoapBox]

I didn't know they used such foul words that long ago. Geeez!

And yes! Even to this day MANY celebrities sleep their way to the top. It's a fact! Trust me. I could name dozens of modern day ones but I won't out of privacy issues.

[amylh322]

@AmericanSoapBox - I hope you are being ironic.

No, you say you know fanous people - you just want attention. Don't give this person any more, folks!

[sky0725]

it's funny to hear them curse especially since you certainly didn't hear that kind of language in films in the 30s. 

[amylh322]

@sky0725 - Lombard grew up with brothers and was known to "curse like a sailor" :) I think Gable both liked it and wished she wouldn't ;-) CL didn't take any crap (or get on anyone's couch) from anyone in Hollywood and she blazed a lot of trails that people don't know about. She was quite a dame.

[FungusMossGnosis]

Nuts!, some Christ Jesus Goddamned Shit didn't have a sense of humor I guess.Still, 63/out of 64 ain't bad.

Yes, Lorraine needs to definitely avoid bloopers of these "regular old, nasty human beings".... Christ Nuts!

[watchwinder]

MJSweetChildofGod I thank you for your earnest reply, and for clarifying that not all starlets slept their way to the top. Ginger Rogers was, however, married 5 times, which doesn't give you much of a footing to suggest she is somehow more morally refined--if we are using Christian-supported morality, which frowns quite heavily on divorce. Yet you cite her lifestyle as admirable. So what makes you any more or less morally correct than someone who applauds swearing? Seems mighty backwards to me.

[MJSweetChildofGod]

AND to finish this up~Ginger Rogers stuck to her morals & values, never swore, drank and only smoked bc she had to for certain film roles. And all the while she was IMMENSELY popular with the staff, grips and all the "background" people AND never slept with any producers, who DID try to come on to her in her early Astoria New York film work. So, swearing is NOT the way to earn TRUE,long lasting respect from others.

[hjb103055]

@MJSweetChildofGod From the beginning of theater actors and actresses slept with the person who had the power to make them stars. It's called the casting couch. I don't mean ALL of them, but, many of them.

[amylh322]

@hjb103055 - why do people need to bring up negative things when we're trying to enjoy a bit of a film that is safe for all ages? Must people always argue and be pot-stirrers on every single video on YT?!

[hjb103055]

@amylh322 You're right. I'm sorry.

[watchwinder]

MJSweetChildofGod I'm afraid you've taken the story out of historical context. In her day, starlets had to sleep their way to the top (hence the term Casting Couch) & were treated like passive call-girls by the boy's club of Hollywood producers/directors. In our era her behavior may not call for respect, but in her time it was one of the few ways women could try to take a truly backwards world and straighten it out a little.

[MJSweetChildofGod]

@watchwinder I am fully aware of all that~yet it wasnt "all actresses" that needed to sleep their way to the top~I've ready many of their autobiographies and both men & women have said that wasnt always the norm. But I was specifically adressing some comments below~which stated that teens/youth of today can only "relate"/respect to people of the past~by seeing vulgar behavior that mirrors their own~which is ludicrous to me!

[MJSweetChildofGod]

@watchwinder AND to finish this up~Ginger Rogers stuck to her morals & values, never swore, drank and only smoked bc she had to for certain film roles. And all the while she was IMMENSELY popular with the staff, grips and all the "background" people AND never slept with any producers, who DID try to come on to her in her early Astoria New York film work. So, swearing is NOT the way to earn TRUE,long lasting respect from others.

[Bambislaught3r]

@MJSweetChildofGod Christ, you're an uptight person. I found it refreshing to see that these "perfect" stars of the past were just like the rest of us.

[MJSweetChildofGod]

@Bambislaught3r You dont even know what the heck we were discussing, and obviously dont understand my posts. So just stay out of it and watch the clip.

[Bambislaught3r]

@MJSweetChildofGod I was referring to this, 'swearing is NOT the way to earn TRUE,long lasting respect from others.' I find this uptight. Clearly I can see and understand what you were discussing as I am obviously able to read. You should try relaxing, it's fun.

[dogbert3002]

@Bambislaught3r yeah man just stay out of their conversation its a youtube comment page not a public conversation! haha i guess should have stayed out of it even more since i'm responding almost a year after

[dogbert3002]

@MJSweetChildofGod if swearing, drinking, and smoking are how you define your "morals and values," then I think the least of your worries are going to be swearing, drinking, and smoking...

[dogbert3002]

@watchwinder for what its worth, and not to say you suggested this, but lombard got the role in my man godfrey because of powell's insistence that it was the only way he would do the film. also, i don't think lombard's language has to do with her fighting against male oppression, but rather with her just being a strong individual who acted as she wanted

[MJSweetChildofGod]

CUSSING GARNERS RESPECT??? What is this backwards world??? I just adore William Powell~i dont need to "relate" to them thru cussing to respect them~it's who they are as people that makes me like them. Btw Carole is NOT someone I like..

[GeorgiaRain27]

Gosh, I love Carole Lombard! She's the only person I know of who can say "shit" and make it sound classy.

[superflyenglishvegan]

... and the irony is that these characters real lives are just as interesting and raw as any character from present day television.

[superflyenglishvegan]

I think alot more kids of today would be interested in these films if they knew older generations of the past werent the unrelatable, finger shaking stereotypes older films make them out to be. I wish kids today could learn more about integrity as demonstrated by Powell's character Godfrey, but the censoring of things that naturally occur in human nature just makes it too alien for most youth to tolerate, so they flip the channel to something like "the Jersey Shore".

[superflyenglishvegan]

This is so great! It shows how human they are. It makes a lot of sense too, because you can't just get to the present day manner of speech without coming from somewhere. Obvioulsy they did it for the censors. I think life conditions were harder during these times, so they wanted to at least try to keep the cinema clean. And then when times got better and more and more people moved to the suburbs, a need for reality must have emerged out of suburban boredom and the censors must have dropped.

[xX08beepers80Xx]

Hahahaha!! I love it!! She was called the "Profane Angel" because of her use of 'colorful' language. lol. Thanks so much for sharing this!

[lorrainewands]

kind of disconcerting to hear all that filth coming out of their mouths. somehow you have this pristine view of them, but then you fkind out they were regular old, nasty human beings. i think i'll stick with the movie and avoid bloopers from now on.

[watchwinder]

I don't think human beings are nasty. We have flaws, we swear, we make mistakes. We also have the power to move emotions, inspire and bring great joy. The beauty of a blooper reel like this is the revelation that great performers are able to do all these things, when given the proper material. You do yourself a disservice by scoping your view to merely the sanitized, rather than embracing the wonder of the whole.

[GarboGalore]

@watchwinder I completely agree! Besides, the so called "pristine view" of the actors and the time in which they lived was completely manufactured by the studios' Production Code. I think it's wonderful to find out they were just regular 'swearing' human beings

[eepghd]

@watchwinder wow. you talk really good. colour me impressed. and i concur.

[tcrownprince]

hahahahahahahahahahaha hahahahahahahahahahaha

hahahahahahahahahahaha

This IS AWESOME =) =D

[Coupal1]

Fabulous reel! Insight into their characters.

[mygreatlovenova]

I love this movie!!! Thanks for sharing..

[mariola2755]

wow it's lovely

[oywidapoodles]

holyjesuschrist LOL

[sandydennisfan]

Thank you for uploading this!

[goldenageflapper]

HaHaHa! You gotta love Carole and her colorful vocabulary. Carole is my favorite actress of all time and I love that I can credit her for influencing my potty mouth. ;)

[26mae1987]

lmao omgoodness carole i read had a potty mouth but its so funny to see this thanks for posting x

[vmurali]

I read your comments guys. But i dont find any cuss words at all..other than some "goddamnit" and "jesus christs". Are they cuss words?

Compared to what we have been hearing these times, they dont compare at all/

[harlow7]

She clearly says "I don't like that shit" at 23 seconds

[arnyjk]

Considering that you're not allowed to say "Goddamnit" on TV these days, yes.

[IHeartVegie]

omg haha!!

Carole had a pottey mouth!

wow i didnt know they had those cuss words back then!!

ty so much for posting this!

Carole is so funny=)

[lordalessan]

During that time, actresses were put down by sexists directors, so Carole asked her brothers to teach her every single cuss word they knew and she used them on her directors, whose respect and friendship she later won.

[IHeartVegie]

oh thanks for the info=)

she sure told them!

[amylh322]

@lordalessan - Actually she learned those words growing up with her brothers, but other than that, i agree wholeheartedly. I don't know of many stars who were as well-liked and respected as Lombard. She was a gem.

[ILoveCaroleLombard]

my birthday is in four days, but I got the ultimate gift in advance by seeing this clip. It's made my day to actually SEE this side of Carole. THANK YOU FOR POSTING THIS!!!!!

[freedom646aolcom]

Truly AMAZING! Better than that TV Bloopers Show!

[two46pm]

How wonderful it is to see this. I love this.

[kmilacl101]

OMG! it was true that she had the mouth of a sailor, i think i know love her more! IDOL!!!

you've made my day with this

[saraismyname]

Haha I was just gonna say that, she really had didn't she ;D

[bluedahlia409]

wow! You get so used to hearing mum from these b&w stars, you forget they knew how to swear! how did you find these bloopers?!

[NoirFemme]

LOL I know! It's awesome, particularly Carole and Bill!

[classicfilmgirl]

Priceless, thanks so much, this is a gem

[irish89055]

great stuff esp compared to the many fake outtakes today.. Carole was really amazin..

[Joemantler]

What a shocker hearing the actors and actresses of the day swear like that. Very funny reel! Thanks for posting!

Wish modern movies could leave more swearing ont eh gag reels.

[skot66]

That is mellow for Carole

[Joemantler]

That's what I've heard. I wonder if I can find some more video of her.

[renamouskouri]

amaaaaaazinnnggggg

[MrBoshenstein]

Shocked the "Wolves" of Hollywood when she lived up her name as well!

[jennifer1003]

That's our Profane Angel! She said "shit" & swore like crazy! I love her!

[Kubrick86Warhol]

OMG Carole Lombard said SHIT! hahah she fucking rocks!!!!!!

[RubyTuesday717]

Carole Lombard truly was the best comedienne who ever graced films. Her presence was already incredibly down-to-earth, but these outtakes nonetheless make her appear even more human. And we finally get to hear her swear!

[meladorimagpie]

YES!

[Mernerwastaken]

THANKS for uploading this! Carole Lombard is the funniest person whoeverlived

[crayzigurl]

You're a tease, only a minute long. But it was worth it.

[watchwinder]

Sure thing! It's short but awful sweet.

[Rita15keke]

woah I love you! Thanks so much for posting this! =D!
