Maureen O'Hara is a 100% gorgeous woman...!!! I love her in "Mircale of 34th Street" (1947), the forever Christmas classic with a young Natalie Wood, and "McLintock!" (1963), the comedy/western with the legendary John Wayne...!!! She's the "all woman": meaning she can act and she has the lady-like gorgeous looks...!!!
Not too many woman can look as good as Maureen O'Hara at age 39. Check out the trailer for the technicolor film, The Spanish Main-1945-when she seduces Paul Henreid. She had to be the most beautiful woman in the world at that time. Only Virginia Mayo could hold a candle too her.
M;O;Hara arguably the most beautiful Natural Red-head that ever lived... pretty close who was more beautiful O'Hara or Rhonda Fleming , as John Wayne would say "so close i'd hate to have to live on the difference". Oh and let us not forget Ann-Margret who is right there with them. OMG now i'm thinking Arlene Dahl, Rita Hayworth, Jeanne Crain, Susan Hayward, Jill St John, Nicole Kidman . Yikes i better stop lol.
@Sportymike She made her living and gained her fame by staring in American movies and she lived in the U.S. Lots of immigrants called themselves "American" and rightly so. They owed their fame and fortune to America and Americans. What is sad about that?
does anyone know martin gables was the fantastic voice of the NFL (national football league) documentaries & filmed commentaries during the end of his life.
i'll never forget his voice describing vince lombardi & the green bay packers! and, believe it or not, when i was a kid, the ny giants (y.a. tittle & frank gifford et al) were our team cause it was before the AFL came into existence!
hey and i'm from new england, a fan of the pats and gay!!! stick that in your pipe and smoke it!
Maureen is a beautiful woman. She was always gorgeous, but I think she got even prettier towards middle age. Right here in this video from 1959 at age 39, and then in The Parent Trap a couple of years later, in which she stole the movie with her beauty and wit. She is an awesome lady.
I personally love how the blonde, bespectacled man seemed to suss out that she was a ginger before any of the others. Watch his leading questions.. When you look in the mirror, are you blonde? Can I take for granted that you are a brunette, then? ;)
@tomitstube No they were best friends and Even though I don't think Maureen was really into Politics I think her views line with Republican maybe not as devoted (I don't no if that makes sense) but I'm a democrat and i didn't think wayne politics were despicable
@tomitstube Why don't you, first, explain John Wayne's politics? That's sort of how things work. You explain why something is wrong, explore alternatives and create a better idea. I'd bet that you don't know jack or shit about John Wayne's political views, but you will certainly go to Wikipedia and point out how I'm really wrong.
@volumeguy ~ john wayne's legend and icon are myth. his bravery and patriotism is propaganda. after using deferments to say out of ww2, (he made millions while his competition was gone), he went on a 40 year crusade of turning in fellow actors as communists and calling vietnam war protesters "traitors and cowards".
he was an admitted racist and homophobe who championed "christian values" while being married three times, a chronic adulterer, an alcoholic, a drug addict, and a wife abuser.
@tomitstube - Homophobe? The word didn't even exist at the time. When John Wayne made The Quiet Man, homosexuality was considered a mental illness in most psychiatric circles. It wasn't until the APA was taken over by a few "gay" administrators, that the lie that homosexuality was normal, began to be taught.
@Dajuro ~ yes "homophobe", he made remarks to that effect. john wayne was a hypocrite and bigot in every sense. besides, there's a healthy christian conservative majority today that's homophobic. which wayne would no doubt be a part of, he'd be on the side of idiots like john mccain and other high ranking mliltary ignorantly saying homosexuals aren't capable of serving. even tho they always have. it isn't a matter of the era, it's a matter of ignorance and bigotry.
@lizzyvance ~ it started with a question about her relationship with john wayne. i was curious about her politics and if she found wayne's pathetic behavior objectionable or agreed with it.
Oh okay. If I came off as annoyed it’s because this happens on her other videos it gets little annoying when people argue about John Wayne on her videos. I go there to discuss her if you know what I’m saying. I have no idea about that stuff. I just like her as actress.
@lizzyvance ~ i hear you, it got a little out of hand. you know how it does. i knew john wayne was turning in actors and condemning them for their political affiliations during the mcarthy witch-hunts, there was great division in hollywood during the 50's. i'm curious about those types of things and where people stood. i used to like irene dunne until i found out she was another one of the rats.
@tomitstube Yeah, because those people that John Wayne "supposedly" turned in were so innocent? They weren't and I don't feel sorry for any of them. They were still able to live a pretty darn good life while defending commies, while gulags were being filled up with people who had no freedom and were being tortured and starved to death. You want to call them witch hunts? Do you think it is any different today for conservative actors who can't get work b'cuz of the lefties who run Hollywood? Nope.
@SoCalGal52 ~2) and these fake patriots you defend even called president eisenhower a "commie", and said the government was 50% "commie". they were tools for a defense industry that sold taxpayers weapons of mass destruction for the cold war, eisenhower even warned us of this military complex and said the "red scare" was overblown.
none of these people supported stalin or gulags, not a single shred of evidence supports this.
it was a political witch hunt that ruined many good americans.
@tomitstube Bogart and a bunch of Hollywood liberals went to D.C. to defend their writer friends by stating they weren't commies, but when he got there, he became infuriated when he found out he had been duped and lied too by the likes of Dalton Trumbo and others when he found out they were commies. Bogie screamed and said "You lied to me, you used me. I am no damn Communist.!" Libs like you will never get it. I'm glad there were patriots in Hollywood who stood up, unlike 2day. God Bless Them.
@SoCalGal52 ~ 1) you have no idea what you're talking about. most of these people were only mildly associated with the communist party, many were made guilty by association, and those who had been communist or socialist, had done so in the distant past, they were americans foremost, and to be accused of being unamerican was complete nonsense. it was a witch hunt by corporate fascists, the john birch society and the like, complete loons. these people were ruined for simply supporting labor.
@spc6767 ~ you're are confusing a secret counter intelligence program with the huac. also, venona is widely disputed in it's effectiveness and results, and it had nothing to do with the vilifying of people being hauled before congress. huac and mccarthyism, and the anti-communist hysteria surrounding it, was a witch hunt that did not produce a single act of espionage. hollywood was always an enemy of right wing morality nuts in this country. huac was a political witch hunt.
Maureen O'Hara inexplicably and shamefully was never even nominated for an Oscar! She is now over 90 years old (but still vibrant and healthy) and one of the last remaining talents of the Silver Screen era. I think we all need write to the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences (oscars.org) and demand that they recognize her with an honorary Oscar this coming year...
@stickstr8up - or at least a 'lifetime acheivement' award. My goodness, people everwhere still seek her films out to watch - she's so beautiful and such a great actress that she's interesting to watch. Her films with John Wayne are classics. Love "The Quiet Man."
The audience laughs at 3:37 because Maureen can't figure out whether she is American and the audience takes it for granted that she is (she was born in Ireland).
Talented and beautiful as she is, Maureen O'Hara has never even been nominated for an Oscar! The Academy really should give her an honorary award because she is a true screen legend. Somebody should start a facebook movement to give her an Oscar before she dies.
Actually, the name of the movie that Lucille Ball and Maureen O'Hara fight in is dance girl dance from 1940. I left out the girl from the earlier post I made.
The more I watch these "special guest" eps, I believe they were set ups. I know there were not many redhead's in Hollywood, at the time. It seems (to me) to be nothing more than promotion. Anything wrong with that? Nope. I still enjoy them. I do prefer the regular part of the show, which I totally believe to have been on the level.
@kyokogodai Promotion to what? Maureen was a big actress so her name would be enough for promotion not her red hair, unless you mean she on it bc promoting her being the Perry como show which is true but most actors went on that show for that reason
@MaureenOHaraFan Love Maureen O'Hara. My comment about "redhead's" was in reference to one of the questions from the panel. And, i did comment that there was nothing wrong with the promotion.
she was inducted into the Western Performers Hall of Fame at the National Cowboy & Western Heritage Museum in Oklahoma City, Oklahoma. She was also awarded the Golden Boot Award.
Like a good wine, she is better with age. Beautiful woman.
