Christopher Plummer in "Inside Daisy Clover" (Part III of 4)



Video Title : Christopher Plummer in "Inside Daisy Clover" (Part III of 4)
Description : This is a selection of the scenes performed by Christopher Plummer in the film "Inside Daisy Clover" (U.S.A., 1965, directed by Robert Mulligan). Set in the Thirties, the film is about the turning of a poor and wild 15-year-old girl, Daisy Clover (played by Natalie Wood), into a Hollywood star by an unscrupulous producer. In this film Christopher Plummer plays one of his villain roles, that of Hollywood producer Raymond Swan. In Part III: In the first scene Swan threatens Lewis Wade (Robert Redford), the young actor of Swan Studios with whom Daisy is in love, to have him arrested for his recent night out with Daisy. So Wade makes his marriage proposal to Daisy, and in the second scene the marriage is going to be celebrated. (What happens between the two scenes showed) Daisy and Wade go on their honeymoon, but one morning Daisy wakes up alone in a motel: Wade has abandoned her. Then Daisy goes back to Swan's house. There she undergoes a scene of jealousy from Swan's wife, Melora, who proves to be in love with Wade, and who reveals Wade's homosexuality to Daisy. The second scene of this Part III takes place the morning after Daisy's return. Daisy has spent the night in a chair by the swimming pool, and it is there that Swan finds her, still asleep. Swan seems to have spent a bad night, too, and, in front of asleep Daisy, he performs a SOLILOQUY (NOT TO BE MISSED!!!) where he has his only moment of sincere tenderness in the whole film. The soliloquy ends with the famous KISS between Christopher Plummer and Natalie Wood. P.S. "Inside Daisy Clover" is at least the third of Chris's films I know in which Chris plays a man who is discarded by a woman in favour of another one: 1) here both Daisy and Melora seem to like Robert Redford better than Chris; 2) in "Stage Struck" Susan Strasberg likes Henry Fonda better than Chris; 3) in "Hanover Street" Lesley-Anne Down likes Harrison Ford better than Chris. Each time I am absolutely amazed and think: BUT HOW UNLIKELY DOES THIS STORY SOUND???

I saw this movie on video in the early 1990's and must have gone back over this kiss scene a million times, even pausing in parts. I'm surprised the video tape didn't break.

How old was Natalie Wood when she made this? -Lily

The film was released in 1965. In 1964 she was 26 and he was 34.

IMPORTANT! A group of Christopher Plummer's fans are sending a PETITION to the ACADEMY OF MOTION PICTURES, ARTS AND SCIENCES for him to finally be honoured with a LIFETIME ACHIEVEMENT ACADEMY AWARD. It's high time he is honoured, as he has never won an Oscar. Please SIGN the petition on the website "iPetitions" (click "sign petition" and then search for his name).
