    --------Ellen 

  • Very well made slide-show. I loved it.

  • you are being a little hard on yourself-i certainly enjoyed the mini-slideshow,perhaps you could do a volume 2.... it made me remember,sadly, a book i used to have in the 70s called the image makers, and it had a lot of great pics of silent stars.if you ever come across it in a collectors/2nd hand store you should get it....

  • This is awesome! Thanks!

  • Check out my Biography of mary pickford if you want a quick overview of the ups and downs of her life and career.

  • well done, beautiful

  • very beautiful

  • I mention Gish and Pickford in The Celebrity Song.

  • Perfect :D

  • thanks so much for this , its so nice to see all the greats again

  • Beautiful!!

  • great pictures of some of the earliest movie icons!

  • Fabuloso

  • Beautiful dames eh'? I'll say! Except your final list of the gone, but not forgotten forgot Barbara Stanwyck. She dazzled the heart, and the eyes too in the late 20's and early 30's. Ladies of Leisure was her breakthrough performance. How she was portrayed in this film was very close to how she was perceived in Hollywood. Fortunately great directors realized the scope of her talent and continued to use her. I realize these efforts on youtube can be subjective to taste. Maybe this is one.

  • That was such an amazing video,Those ladies looked so amazing and elegant.Some of them I had heard of,and some of them,I actually think I had saw pictures of but were never told who they were,thank you so much for posting this!

  • What a beautiful and NATURAL ladies!

  • We never hear about these silent stars any more, and most people have never seen their work. I dont think anyone can make a video better than this one.

  • I love the first music, what is it?

  • somebody know the first music?

  • Air on a 'G' String, google it

  • Thanks for the post. It's good to put names to these faces again.

  • or Marin Marais, one of the 2, thanks again

  • Awesome video. Is that Mozart or Beethoven in the middle? And, more importantly, is that Saint-Colombe at the end? Love to know. Thanks

  • I love Louise brooks and Mary pickford.

  • yeah fo' real, I wanna know too...

  • great video! I really love the silent era. You seem to be missing someone though...look up Mabel Normand. She's done some pretty good work during those silent years too.

  • This is amazing. The picture selection, the music, the quotes! Thank you, Thank you

  • nothing in my time has come close to the beauty of those woman of screen. I wish we could have more woman like them on screens today.

    Over at the Pickford theater they play these classics for free. I love them all.

  • Thanks for posting this film, it's awesome!

  • Wow!! I absolutely love your choice of music. It was really good.

  • thanks for sharing

  • exelent work unforttunately there are not so many ladies like these now

  • Great comp and beautiful pictures!

  • thank you x

  • Unlike today's females in the films these stars were feminine not as "hard" looking nor appearing to be "worldly"...........

  • One thing they had that's lacking today: class

  • That is so true we have beautiful women in Hollywood but class is definitly missing

  • Oh man, I could die for Louise Brooks!

  • I would like to see the complete 1916 film "PURITY" starring Audrey Munsun  is it available anywhere?

  • There is a softness (but without the cheap mistiness of what was later called soft-focus) and inner glow that comes from photographs of this era that I don't think can be duplicated with today's equipment.

    I do love it.

  • What is called the first tune?

    How beautiful is someone I can say as a location?

  • I love Mary Pickford and Norma Talmadge!! I didn't care that much about Minter, as she kind of imitated Pickford.

  • Loving the music; hadn't heard it on guitar. I like it jazz-played by Jack Loussier in album "Play Bach". These women are so incredibly gorgeous!! Specialy Dolores Costello 1.09. Congrats

  • I agree, I was limited to a ten minute video and looking back on it, I would've eliminated a lot more for more personal favorites, such as Marceline Day, Camilla Horn, Dorothy Mackaill, etc. Therefore, I absolutely loath the video, it's completely amateurish and quite dull. I will delete it eventually when I find the time to create something more to my liking.

  • When ladies knew what ladies were......

  • Amazing selection of music and photographs. It really gives you a melancholic feeling

  • that beauty of these women but even more was his innate talent which they possessed

  • exactly - and they were real - no bought and paid for boobs - or surgery to re-make them

  • Merecido homenaje a todas esas hermosas y talentosas actrices.

    Muy apropiado acompañamiento musical.

  • que hermosas fotos

    gracias creador de este video x el hermoso trabajo que hiciste

  • Fascinating!

  • Very touching. A lot of work went into making thatclip. A mini masterpiece in its own right.

    Thank you for posting it Thisgunforhire

    xx

  • look at hollywood now, i cant think of one woman whose face is as striking and fiercely beautiful as these ladies.

    they just dont make em like they used to

  • ..not quite - it's because these early stars

    do not SAY ANYTHING - which guards their mystique, and makes them appear more goddess like...but true true true they're truly beautiful.

  • I find it so appalling that all these people, so fresh and lovely in these portraits, have been dead and gone for so long a time.

    Mecum omnes plangite.

  • Lovely tribute. I love all the hairdos!

  • Outstanding. Thank you for posting this video.

  • For the people who are not familiar with Dolores Costello's body of work, she was also Drew Barrymore's grandmother.

  • Fantastic-a worthy memorial, thanks so much for making and posting!

  • The Best video I have yet seen on YouTube! ThankYou.

  • She reminds me of Loretta Lynn somehow.

  • i love the silent era of films. it seems so far away yet close enough to touch. what stunningly beautiful ladies.

  • Ah, if only you were silent too.

  • really beautiful, great job...

    and, does anybody know the name of the last music?

  • I think it's a Cello suite by Bach

  • yes it is; i like that song.

    thanks bugsy90210

  • Corinne Griffith (sigh) I always knew I was born late.

  • You must have worked very har for this Post .CONGRATULATIONS Amigo Beautiful,Slides and Music.Better than Most other posts that are a detriment,and turn offs.Bless you

    Poppa Gus

  • love clothes simple beautie ,women hair ,body ,shines right on !ageless !timeless! lol

  • Did any of these stars do television interviews later in their careers? I believe Hayakawa was on Joe Franklin.

    If anyone has clips, please upload them.

    tony

  • Hmmm... Silent Ladies... wish I'd thought of that!

    :-)

  • I miss these women, and old Hollywood in general. Funny how I'm nostalgic of a time I never lived in.

  • Me too! I have so many books on this era - have to buy another bookcase!

  • I saw 4 stars and had to correct it. These beautiful women of the silent era deserve no fewer than ten stars. But since five is the highest....

    Beautiful job, thanks.

  • I like your vide clip and have rated it as awesome. Please check out mine on a set of 1920's movie star cards: Marion Davies, Fay Wray,Clara Bow, Greta Garbo,Louise Brooks and many more.

  • Wow! Who needed dialogue with faces like that? Dolores Costello in particular. Colleen Moore reminds me of Annette Benning. Thanks for posting!

  • this is so beautiful. I love the quotes. The pictures and music were awesome!!

  • Superb

  • Thank you to love all these great stars of the Silent Movies. You have much talent, one feels all your love for the cinema. We should all have in our blogs a video of these great stars. Thank you also to like Greta Garbo.
