Program number 15 of 18 programs in the series. The impact of movies on the morals of three decades. The problem of movie censorship and the techniques of outwitting the censors are discussed in thoughtful and hilarious detail. Wendy Barrie introduces Leo Rosten, Ben Hecht, Martin Quigley, Marc Connelly, Anita Loos, Albert Hackett, Nunnally Johnson, Otto Preminger, Rouben Mamoulian, Harry Brandt, Cecil B. DeMille, Albert Howson and Paul Newman. A feature presentation of the Westinghouse Broadcasting Company in Collaboration with the Oral History Research Project of Columbia University. Produced by Joan Franklin and Robert Franklin. NOTE: Robert C. Franklin (1920-1980), inspired by a 1958 newspaper story he read about Columbia University's POPULAR ARTS ORAL HISTORY PROJECT, approached Dr. Louis Starr, then director of the oral-history collection, with a proposal to interview and tape record, on to 1/4" reel to reel audio tapes, movie people as they passed through New York. The objective would be to document, through personal recollections, the era of the silent era in films, the impact of sound, the triumphs and inequities of the major studios, and life in the glittering film capital...a firsthand account revelation of how silent movies were actually made. Robert and his wife, Joan Franklin went on to record 200 reels of audio tape, recording celebrities mostly in New York City hotel rooms in 1958 and 1959. Transcripts of interviews were made available at the time to students and researchers. In 1961 excerpts/highlights from these audio tapes were edited into a 16 part radio series titled, MEMOIRS OF THE MOVIES. Myrna Loy provided a standard opening. A different celebrity host/hostess was employed to introduce each episode. All of the 90 celebrities interviewed have since passed away with the exception of Joanne Woodward. Two additional episodes were later produced, "Style of the 70's," and "Rush To Reality," both hosted by Ben Gazzara and added, subsequently, to re-issues of the series which were syndicated in the 1960's and 1970's airing in New York (WINS), Boston (WBZ), Philadelphia (KYW), Baltimore (WJZ), Fort Wayne (WOWO), Chicago (WIND), San Francisco (KPIX), and Los Angeles (KFWB). The original 200 unedited reels of 1/4" audio tape interviews recorded by Joan and Robert Franklin are no longer known to exist. However, audio cassette transfers from these original tapes were donated by Joan Franklin many decades ago to Columbia University's Oral History Research Office where they exist today. Confirmed during a 2009 phone conversation with Mary Marshal Clark, archivist at Columbia at that time, who stated that the first on file communication from Robert Franklin to Columbia University related to his proposal to do an oral history audio recorded project is dated, July 31, 1958.

October 1, 1962-May 22, 1992. Johnny Carson, host of NBC's network late-night "Tonight Show" reigned for 30 unprecedented years...five times the combined tenure of Steve Allen, and Jack Paar. Carson was impervious to competition, including efforts to dethrone him by Les Crane, Joey Bishop, Merv Griffin, Dick Cavett, Jack Paar, Pat Sajak, Joan Rivers, and Arsenio Hall. Sadly, very few complete "Tonight Show" broadcasts survive during Johnny Carson's first ten years of broadcasting. Around 1965, through the early 1970's, oldest tapes were first erased systematically by orders from myopic NBC executives, to be recycled for purposes of saving money. Ironically, in many cases, these older master tapes were too brittle, and portended probable drop-outs for re-use after being erased. Subsequently blank after being erased, these older questionable master 2" Quad tapes were either sparingly used or never used again for recording new programming and eventually were discarded. Saving thousands of dollars at the time (wiping master tapes for potential re-use) resulted in losing millions of dollars by NBC in today's marketplace, and more importantly wiping thousands of historic TONIGHT SHOW broadcasts, which contain precious personal anecdotes from political, show business, and sports icons of the past.

April 17, 1967 - December 26, 1969. THE JOEY BISHOP SHOW was one of several attempts by ABC (previously Les Crane tried and failed to attain ratings) to establish a strong late-night talk show. Bishop held the record (177) substitute hosting appearances for Johnny Carson on The Tonight Show, and had been quite successful. It was hoped Joey could lure away some of Carson's audience. Similar to Jack Paar, in 1960, Bishop surprised his audience on the night of November 26, 1969, and walked off the show while taping his opening monologue. The Joey Bishop late-night program lasted for one more month using guest hosts before it left the air. During three phone conversations I had with Bishop, in the early 2000s, he confirmed to me that almost ALL of his late-night shows had been erased by ABC. Joey Bishop hosts the 46th Annual photoplay magazine Gold Medal Awards. Joey is the recipient of this award. Dean Jones accepts for Glenn Ford. William Shatner and Leonard Nemoy accept for Gene Roddenberry, and David Janssen accepts for Paul Newman. NOTE: The 57th Annual Photoplay Awards aired 11/21/78 ~ ABC-TV was one of only two Special Photoplay Awards (this show aired as a one hour Special) produced, with this one in 1978 being the last one ever. Photoplay ceased publication in 1980, and it’s staff started a new magazine called “Us Magazine” which is still published today. Previous TV exposure for the Photoplay Award was broadcast on The Steve Allen Show in 1959, and The Merv Griffin Show in 1966 and 1967. NOTE: There a slight hum is heard occasionally as originally broadcast.

The series was syndicated by Westinghouse. Actor Paul Newman discusses his career, his diet, politics, etc. David Frost and Paul Newman view a clip from an early television boxing drama (October 18, 1955) Newman acted in as a boxer, directed by Arthur Penn, and comments on his preparation for such an early role in his career. Other clips are viewed and discussed including Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid and Newman directing his wife Joanne Woodward in the film Rachel, Rachel. Newman states that the success to his long marriage to his wife is that they have almost nothing in common. Frost asks Newman "what makes a woman attractive." Other topics discussed including Paul Newman's interest in getting involved with social and political issues and backing certain candidates, influences in life, and what he envisions for his future.
