Maggie Smith - Jean

[ShadowsGathered]

Bravo, bravo! Maggie Smith... a consummate actress... and The Prime of Miss Jean Brodie was one of her best!  Thank you, Rod McKuen, for this lovely ballad.

[greenfairyish]

it's so sad that music which is beautiful gets so few views, however videos with really no musical worth - bieber, black ehemm- get millions.

[fondashen]

She is amazing. Even now that she's old, she has that air about her that most 76 year olds don't have. ya know?

coach z? O_O

[TheMOOSHBABY]

ive never seen Prof. McGonagall so young LOL

[paulj0557]

The first movie I saw her in was Hot Millions. That movie was a hoot! Worth watching definitely.

MAGGIE SMITH is really a terrific actress. Her performance in THE PRIME OF MISS JEAN BRODIE,was genius! Seeing her,years later,in the "HARRY POTTER" movies,is a real treat.I just wish,she had more screen time,in the movies. ROD MCKUEN's lyrics are timeless,a true american poet!

[Icklecal47]

[4MaryAnna]

[RoseBaker4444]

Amazing!  Loved it.

My name is Jean, and this is my favorite song.

It is really great listening to it.

[Deader87]

Man, the song in this is really relaxing

[theold45s]

Sorry should have mentioned Rod didn't sing it in the movie. a singer called Oliver did

[frankd1965]

Also Johnny Mathis, Tony Bennett, Andy Williams, Ray Coniff did this song

[theold45s]

It is Rod McKeun singing, he of course wrote it too. Thanks for the posting.

So stunning. Does anyone have a clip of "Travels With My Aunt"? Maggie had a shimmering, quicksilver beauty in her youth, that impish sidelong smile. She was amazing as the half-batty Scottish teacher in "Miss Jean Brodie".She made the film even better than the book. I think the song "Jean" was written by Rod McKeun (spelling?) but not sure. A great actress. A great memory.

[maggiesmithowlpost]

@tirnanog20 A great memory??????????????? She's not even dead yet! Thank god she's not.

Who sings this song? It`s beautyful!

Maggie Smith has a very speciel face,

She is beautyful, even now that she`s old.

And she`s such a good actress.

[loveth31]

I don't know who sings this song but it's The Prime Of Miss Jean Brodie music

[richardhanna0]

@loveth31 The poet Rod Mckeun sings the song "Jean" which he wrote as the title track for "The Prime of Miss Jean Brodie".

The late Oliver recorded the song and it was one of the biggest hits in 1971. Hope this helps.

Rod McKuen

[helenajesstarzak]

Okay thank you for the ansaw.

[Sshelly34213]

@helenajesstarzak This is Rod McKuen singing Jean and there's also another version by Oliver.

[CoachZucchini]

@helenajesstarzak I believe this is being sung by Rod McEwen.

[andrewtran094094007]

@helenajesstarzak I would say the same thing and I love her voice also

[masterdan13]

@helenajesstarzak it's Rod Mckuen singing

[bkwiley]

Beautiful ballad, Maggie Smith very good actress.

[MinervasEule]

Hi again :-) - We'll never be done, won't we?

It is so funny watching Jean Brodie these days: she really moves like a 40 years younger Minerva McGonagall

[loveth31]

Yes I think too :)
