@franklindavid You are correct and he acknowledged that the last time they appeared in public together, presenting at the oscars. Miss Stanwyck was visibly moved by his testimonial to her support of him. I love them both! John Garfield (who I also love) had played the lead in Golden Boy on Broadway but Stanwyck used her clout to get Holden cast in the film version.
How true. A tumble that cost him his life, poor fellow. It's a shame he wasn't able to overcome his addiction to alcohol and due to his being by then such a loner & recluse, his body wasnt' found for many days! Very sad. A fine actor who did a lot for wildlife conservation over in Africa.
@JubalCalif I saw an interview by a friend of his. He said that everyone assumed Holden was too drunk or too proud to call 911, but his opinion was that Holden was just too ashamed to call for help. Yes, he did wonderful work in Africa.
One of my very favourite actors. He was a Republican, but what the hell, nobody is perfect. The movie world could do with people like like him. Vale Bill.
@Apollogranforte I agree, the movie world could do with people like Mr. Holden. Funny that the leading men of old Hollywood were all Republicans -- or Conservatives..John Wayne, Robert Taylor, Robert Montgomery, Gary Cooper, et al. Now all the popular Hollywood stars are Democrats and liberals.
@tallpaul521 Your politics are a little off and such a generalization as always is inaccurate.. Like our country, Hollywood leading men were Republicans and Democrats. Humphrey Bogart, James Cagney, Spencer Tracy, Henry Fonda, were all Democrats.
@bman560 I was commenting on Hollywood leading men who made their political stances known. With the exception of Bogart, none of the leading men you listed made their political affiliations known. You have no evidence public or private that Cagney, Tracy and Fonda were Democrats.
I absolutely love William Holden! Beautiful, talented, classy, unique (did I mention beautiful?) ..what a smile. They surely don't make them that wonderful any more! In fact, back then, this world (in my opinion) was blessed with the classiest and most unique actors and actresses we will ever see...a time that is now long gone. THANK GOD for film...so that they will forever be immortalized and forever a part of our lives!
Love Bill Holden. He was a wonderful actor and it didn't hurt that he was so handsome. He was the first actor to be paid one million dollars for a film and he was worth every penny. However, I admire him the most for his work in wildlife conservation. He saw what was happening to the wildlife population, decades before it was noticed by most people. Thankfully,Stefanie Powers continued his work, by founding the William Holden Wildlife Foundation. WHWF is a fitting tribute to a remarkable man.
My favourite films under Holden: "The Wild Bunch," "Network," and "Sunset Boulevard." I thought he was also very good "Stalag 17" (Oscar winning role) and "The Country Girl."
I liked some of Holden's films.He was a major player in Hollywood.Humphrey Bogart loathed him,and being a massive Bogart fan rather clouds my view on Holden.Good looking guy,though,and great voice.
@MOGGS1942 Holden had no love for Bogart, either, and SABRINA wasn't their first film together. Since I'm a massive fan of both, I suppose I'll just leave it to history and too many cocktails.
At one point while filming with Audrey Hepburn, (I was reading a book about her & this was in the book, I cannnot remember the name of right now), she and he were beginning to think of becoming further involved. He was married, but he was smitten with her & wanted to marry her. In the end, they did not continue the affair etc., due to the fact that Audrey Hepburn wanted kids, & he had had a vasectomy, & could not have kids, so she broke off their budding friendship. What was she thinking?? Gosh!
A great actor and person who had a few too many Scocth's one night, took a tumble, hit his head, and was too proud and ashamed too call for an ambulance. Sad.
@amirtoma well, he actually did kill another person in an auto accident he had because he was drunk. he was guilt ridden about it and his drinking really picked up after that
Robert Taylor was Mr. Reagan's best friend. Reagan delivered Taylor's eulogy.
Holden was a great guy and a great actor.
After too many drinks in his apartment, he stumbled and hit his head on the corner of his night stand..he tried to staunch the blood flow with kleenex, but died from loss of blood. His friends have said he could of saved his life, but he was too "embarresed" to call for an ambulance.
A movie star of the highest order. From his very first film! And he starred in some of the greatest films ever made. Picnic. Stalig 17. Network. Bridge On The River Kwai. We're beholden to Holden. Salinger liked him, too. For a first name he gave Caufield Bill's last name.
did you know that he was really attracted to audrey hepburn when they were doing Paris, When It Sizzles. But audrey didnt like him much because of his addiction to alcohol. But i think they both were somehow quite ''involved'' while doing Sabrina, don't they? Anyway, i love both them so very much.
I think there is some sort of preserve in his name. He was involved "with" Stephanie someone...she played the wife of Robert Wagner in a tv show - show name and her last name escape me at the moment.
Bill was searching for something in his life and had the opportunity to work in a movie filmed in the jungle of Africa that made him to come back again as a tourist on three different occasions where he stayed and lived in the jungle for three or six consecutive months, once he said to the press 'I found the jungle a beautiful and fascinating place to be, I like to come here because I want to stay away from the jungle as much as I can'
A great actor whose "demons" unfortunately arrived at a very young age. Alcoholism is frightening and to be able to see what it did to such a handsome man as Holden is quite a message.
His acting skills, however, never left him--and isn't "Network" perhaps his greatest role?
Watch at the very very end of the video after the hand shakes, how the male panelists go about their business and the females can not help themselves but to watch the handsome Holden walk out!! LOL!!! Who can blame them? - I know I would too!
Is he gorgeous! First broadcast live in September 1956, this episode appeared on GSN on 2 October 2008. What a show. The June Taylor Dancers looking luscious. A Suez Canal pilot to report on the crisis. William Holden as mystery guest. John Daly did fascinating interviews with both the pilot and Holden. WML rocks!
This legend (ie. Holden)is simply IRRESISTIBLE. I love him! What a man, what a gentleman! A handsome, sexy, unique Artist. And what a voice (and by the way, what a great signature!)
I totally agree,I think he is such a natural at acting people don't realize the kind of talent it takes be that natural onscreen.Bill Holden is my all time favorite old movie actor.He is just so darn delightful to watch!
Terrific actor. I don't think any actor starred in more good films in the 1950s than William Holden, and it's fun to see him as himself from that era. Thanks for posting.
unfortunately because of his vices- smoking and drinking- he became a rather unattractive older man
