Truman Capote's Swans | The Most Glamorous Socialites Of The 20th Century

Can you do a deep dive on Zelda Fitzgerald?

Thanks for making part two. The title of part two should be the same as part one and you ad part two to the end of the title. That's how you do it.

Que bella Gloria Guinness, paisana 🇲🇽

Interesting the German nobles felt that way about Gloria, when even Rainier III of Monaco had a Mexican grandmother! (Not to mention Empress Eugénie of France had an imperial Aztec ancestor). And now even the head of the House of Saxony is a Mexican businessman 😂 🇲🇽 Not to mention the Prince Von Hohenlohe represented Mexico in the Winter Olympics for years!

Thank you, the program was so well presented and you have a lovely soft voice, its very relaxing.

Really enjoyable and informative ,appreciate and admire your in-depth research ,great work ,I certainly intend to watch any further documentaries you intend to make .

WOW. BRILLIANT IDEA, WONDERFUL, EDUCATIONAL CHANNEL!!

Homes...please explore! And gardens.

These people that the narrator showers the terms of “upper echelons” on were no more than degenerates with passports & money to be nothing more than gigolos & prostitution.

Marellas husband bought halstons home on 63rd st NYC where Tom Ford lives now

I have a feeling he wanted to be them....

Beautiful overview, thank you SO much

Very informative and interesting. Great pace with presentation of the swans and their lives. Well rounded and interesting

Love, Love, Love your ideas on delving deeper into the lives of these women, especially their homes and gardens. love your channel. Just found it today. 🎉

Anything about Marella. Her style.gardens, homes.

Thank you. Very nice 😀

The sad thing about Capote's life was that he needed his mother to love him and hated the fact that all she wanted was to be a socialite but never was.

capote was a backstabbing weseal

Ms India, good Evening! Thank you for Part Two… Andy Warhol or O’Keefe… or the Architecht who did great Modern Sky Scrapers, solving the HAVAC issues…just suggestions. Re: In Cold Blood… that is the book my Mother, everlasting be her memory, the book she told me about and I read it too. Never the same after reading it!

Carol was a scary, white-faced freak who committed suicide after Walter died because she knew how instantly irrelevant she had become. Rather a waste of a person. What was Walter thinking?!

I am surprised how these rich men did bot care how many times these women were married. Like sloppy seconds and then some sad.

There ist something that I realliy appreciate, even it's just a detail: you really try to have foreign names pronounced correctly. I like that really much, because in this way, I have the feeling you are taking it serious. Thank you.

This is wonderful, thank you!

It does not matter how "beautiful" or rich these people are, they really give me the ick . They live in a weird world of indulgence, ego and self importance. Staying thin, looking beautiful and sleeping with powerful people is all they care about.

Women of their age. Born rich or poor, they relied on their husbands. And did what they could. Truman Capote told their story, revealed their secrets. He wished he was like them, but he wasn’t.

Geez - abstract noun is REFINEMENT. ‘Refinery’ is a processing plant for oil, sugar, flour, alcohol...etc.

These ladies lived incredibly fascinating lives!

Uff, i'll never again...😮
Bunch of insane subhuman character's

great video and very well researched!

Thank you. x

Few of these women are particularly attractive. They're just thin, well-coiffed and well-draped.

It is so interesting. Watching the series, “Feud,” I realized that there was no character on it that I liked particularly or would want to know. Their lives all seemed so unhappy, and nobody exhibited any signs of real authenticity or integrity. Yet, I was riveted to the story, perhaps because I connected with the characters through their humanity. We have all had times in our lives when we realized that we were not living in any genuine way. In these times, it is easy for a person to change their lifestyle and pursue one that is more authentic, but in those days, that was a lot more difficult.

I eventually realized that these women were presented as having the luckiest, most fulfilled lives of any people in the world — the kind of woman that every young woman should aspire to become. Young women growing up were taught that they were somehow “less than” if they did not live up to those standards. We were so fortunate to have other role models as we grew up.

Eleanor Roosevelt’s mother probably came from this same model of how a woman should be. She was immensely successful socially in her day, and she seems to have pitied little Eleanor for not living up to the mark. How fortunate Eleanor was to have educational opportunities that showed her other options. And how fortunate we were to have a role model like Eleanor.

“Eat the Rich”

Thank you for posting your video❤
as far as I am concerned , Freeman Capote was very much cuckoo.
Very much, top of the line cuckoo .
I feel sorry for him, for his life, and for the lives of all his “swans”.
Brilliance and Idiocracy usually walk hand-in-hand .
Freeman Capote is a brilliant example of that complete “ idiotic brilliance”
So many lives destroyed , unnecessarily…………,

These people didn’t pay enough taxes.

Born into status and power plays tricks on the mind.

I wish Truman, with his magnificent talent, had spent more time writing and less time kissing up to these vapid, self absorbed society broads.

The last swan is my favorite I believe. Rhe Gloria Vanderbilt ❤

Omg my brain is exploding

Suzy Parker!!!!!!!!

A bunch of rich loose women. Dreadful people. 👎🏽

Fabulous 💕

Loving your channel ❤❤❤

What an interesting escapade into a time gone by.

Oh for a photograph of Gloria wearing those necklaces that weighed so much they put her in bed for 2 days. Sigh
