PaleyAfterDark: An Evening with Christopher Plummer presented by Citi

PaleyAfterDark presented by Citi (2012). At PaleyAfterDark NY on May 29, 2012, following comments from host Rebecca Paller (associate curator, The Paley Center for Media) and guest Alec Baldwin, acclaimed actor Christopher Plummer reflects on his career with moderator David Edelstein (film critic, New York magazine and NPR). Topics include: the "awful" experience of viewing footage of himself as a young, inexperienced actor; he and his fellow stage actors' "terribly snobbish" attitude about television versus theater; his view of live television as a frightening "series of Dunkirks"; his sense of his own youthful arrogance and difficulty as a co-star; memories of working alongside Julie Harris, "the last first lady of American theater"; the fun of taking on fewer romantic leading roles and more character-actor roles after age forty; his famous dislike for his 1965 musical hit "The Sound of Music," despite his affection for co-star Julie Andrews; his forty-two year marriage to Elaine Taylor and her role in helping him curb his wild lifestyle; and his favorite role as Hamlet in "Hamlet at Elsinore" (1964).
