I love her voice

I remember this on when I was a kid. I always liked Patricia Neal - she is a great lady and actress.

She was a fighter, and she lived 45 years from a stroke that could have damn well killed her only to come out strong.

@pernelldh I second that. But, as you know, TV Land has gone to seed.

Yowzers! One would never have thought the late great Ms Neal had suffered a massive stroke that almost killed her years before this was filmed. She truly was a FIGHTER...and a class act all the way! THANKS for posting this delightful "blast from the past"!!  :-)

I remember when Patricia Neal suffered that stroke, she got a severe case of aphasia. AMAZING is the word as she managed to get her voice back in shape (which can be difficult for most stroke victims) and get back to work. R.I.P. Pat.

If TV Land should air more retromercials, they should air this one.

I love it! We used to quote this commercial over and over again....BLOCKS headache pain, just stops it! Fantastic to see this again.

RIP, what an awesome voice, gives you goosebumps.

[pixuma]

RIP...

gonna miss that voice

[gatoperezoso]

i don't think anyone's saying smoking is good, just that she had a congenital defect and had a husky voice even before she started puffing...people who overreact to smokers are just as lame as the people they're criticizing, just in a different way...
