Four Remarkable Women
(CBS)
Mike Wallace interviews four remarkable women, including the 1991 session with Barbra Streisand.
Wallace then talks to Tina Turner, who pleads with him to be nice to her in a deeply personal interview from 1996. In it, Turner admits that success is longer lasting in Europe than it is in America, the homeland she left and may never return to permanently. She is retired now and still living in her French villa overlooking the Mediterranean, where the interview was taped.
Shirley MacLaine, famous believer in reincarnation, never wilts under Wallace's incredulous line of questions regarding her revelations, telling him his attitude "is unbecoming." She also says she had an affair with Charlemagne 1,200 years ago in this unforgettable interview Wallace often refers to in speeches. The interview combines sit-downs from 1984 and 2000.
In the fourth and final interview, from 1998, Candice Bergen tells Wallace about how she had to compete with the wooden dummy Charlie McCarthy for her ventriloquist father's attention. She also says it was difficult to handle her own beauty and the way others reacted to it.
