Best bet for any sort of Clive memorial, is if anyone is ever in London, UK. St. Paul's, Covent Garden, is known as "The Actor's Church", One can leave a small memorial in his name. Also, Colin Clive DID NOT serve in WWI. He suffered a badly broken leg while at Stonyhurst College.. Most of his last year was spent recuperating. He did enter Sandhurst as a 15 year old Cadet, but was forced to resign soon after...due to a Cavalry accident. The leg never completely healed .
He didn't retire. He died from tuberculosis and acute alcoholism when he was only 37. He had several mental issues including his having seen and experienced too much during his service in the British army during WWI.

you wanted us to leave a comment so ill give my honest oppinion IT SUKED you used the same pic like 30 times and it was put together poorly ( HOPE YOU LEARN HOW TO MAKE A REAL VIDEO IN THE FUTURE!)
Well I'm sorry but this is simply an act of adoration for an unappreciated actor, it wasn't meant to be perfect, and if you can't get that past your egotistic, slanderous mind then just don't comment at all.
Not knocking your appreciation, the subject really deserves your best research efforts. No ego or slander on my end, I just know my Clive history and you should too if you're putting up videos and asking for comments on it.
Again, read Greg Mank's "Hollywood's Maddest Doctors". Best documented account of Clive's life thus far. By the way, his ashes were never found.
I've always had a crush on Colin Clice since I was a little girl. But I never found a thread to follow.
I now live on Paris and they never show the Frankenstein movies on the cable.
Yet Colin's image, spell-binding voice and accent flashed into my mind the other day. I still find him Charismatic, beau and sexy. Thank you for this tribute.
Cool video; it was great to see a tribute to the vastly underrated Colin Clive.
However, 300 people actually attended his funeral, and although many of them may have been there "to be seen" rather than as a legitimate mourner, there were still that many people there.
Thank you for this. I would like to see more Colin photos. I will tell you. I noticed him right away and liked his performance in Frankenstein. Also, I thought he was quite a looker. I don't understand what happened, and why he wasn't more popular. I think he would have been if he was a leading actor in the movie mainstream. I don't know why he was in so many b movies.
also.. the tomb at the end was a memorial in his birthplace, st malo. It was paid for by William Marley, so says In memory....William Marley...Colin Clive, 1900-1937
I dont know the answer to the ashes questions but theres a memorial in Transylvania and in his birthplace. Maybe classicfilmnerd will know where they are scattered, u can ask him. And as far as I know Journey's End is only available on DVD in a James Whale Collection, but hasn't been restored so is bad quality but is available on VHS.
he was so awsome and he will be missed

Mr. Clive was in almost constant pain, and I'm sure that that, and the shame he felt about failing....were responsible for his alcoholism.

Colin Clive was a great actor. Anyone that seen "Frankernstein" will attest to this.
He was unappreciated, not given credit for his talent. In a way, if he didn't hurt jis knee, we would never have seen his genius. Bernardo

I've never seen so much inaccurate info about Colin Clive via the comments here and in the video.
I love Colin Clive too, but this "tribute" is tacky and does nothing to honor the man or his legacy.
I suggest reading Greg Mank's work on Colin Clive for verifiable info.
Sorry to be negative, but Colin Clive deserves a lot better than this.

Clive must have had it all in 1931 after Frankenstein but was unhappy and drank a lot. He died too young.
Nice tribute.

Beautiful man. I wish I could find a copy of "Journey's End".
Do you know where he's buried? I'd read once that his unclaimed ashes were buried and never marked. I should like to visit him someday - so to speak.

His ashes were buried in Hyde Park London in 1939, in a jar that had kept family ashes for centuries. He rests somewhere in Hyde Park, London.
