SO, if you only made the one mistake about Willaim Powell, you did a GREAT job! Maybe because the info you got in your research messed up. I believe that Powell was retired for many years from the industry, and most confuse that with being dead! As if an actor/actress has a right to a retirement! The music was perfect! Thank you for putting this together for us all!
I'm not sayingthey are not beautiful but Rita Hayworth is very very very gorgeous and I just saw her today in this video. So many actors and actresses gone too soon
Good video. I did not see any mention of Tyrone Power (1915 - 1958). He died tragically in Madrid of a massive heart attack at age 44. He collapsed while filming a dueling scene for Solomon and Sheba and was dead before reaching a hospital. Sad that so many of these great stars died at an early age.
Just one correction...(Rita Hayworth) no one dies directly from Alzheimers. Alzheimers causes brain deterioration such that one cannot look after oneself or tell others that they are feeling unwell.So more than likely the cause of her death is something else.
This is absolutely great and only makes me wish that we were all immortal - then your video happily wouldn't be needed! But, we are all mortal so your video is a great tribute.
Thank you SO MUCH for this tribute! You really did a fantastic job, and yet, made me aware of MY mortality by seeing that Douglas Fairbanks Sr died at the age ai am NOW!! Yipes! I better take better care of myself!
@jstagnitto In cardiac arrest, the heart actually stops pumping blood around the body. A heart attack is, I think, only a certain part of the heart at a time. Anyone can feel free to correct, I'm not a doctor.
nice video, several inaccuracies in the ages at death though, eg the last one Humphrey Bogart was 57, not 58. This could have been 50 times as long if everyone was included.
this is one of best video i'v ever seen in my life and hope that they did'n pass in vein and hope that we could all be in heven one day with our love one's but for now keep liveing and fighting the good fight my friend's til we meet in heven with them all peace love and happyness your's truly al
Thank-you so much for this. I am especially thankful for you to add Lon Chaney Sr. and Harold Lloyd, two very overlooked actors who deserve praise. However, I'm not trying to be inconsiderate, you did forget to add Donald O'Connor.
READ HOLLYWOOD BABYLON...1&2..BY KENNETH ANGER`S GOOD BOOK ABOUT THE GOLDEN AGE OF HOLLYWOOD.....IM A MOVIE BUFF LOVE OLD B&W CLASSIC FILM ALWAYS WATCH TCM..TO SEE THE OLD B&W FILM JAMES CAGNEY MY FAV ACTOR..BIG FAN.
About Dietrich, it was more a suicide since she could not accept to leave her appartment and go in a nursing home. Her daughter Maria later confirmed it though few mentions it.
@tousamis Yeh I jabe read her daughter Maria's biography... fascinating read. Thanks for watching. I wouldn't call it suicide though, I'd say she just waited to die naturally, some people prefer that to medical care.
In fact, Maria didn't say it was a suicide in her book, she said it later. Marlene was not able to take care of herself anymore and she was penniless and had to leave her appartment in Paris to go to a nursing home but she had always say that she would not go since she felt safe at home. She died on her couch that day and friends later said it was a suicide though they were reluctant to say it. I know it's not somehting well known because it was said many years later.
@tousamis Yeh okay fair enough, I'm not disputing it, they were there. But I suicide is taking your life, not letting yourself die, I'd say there was a difference. In my opinion anyway. Thank you for watching.
well, her nurse and secretary Norma Bosquet said Marlene did suicide, her friends didn't just watch her die on her couch. She was helped to commit suicide. It's not an easy thing to confess I guess and her friends did not want to spoil her legend. In fact Marlene asked for sleeping pills and took them all during the afternoon and slowly felt into a coma then death. Marlene's grandson Peter confirmed it too.
Do not trush youtube amateur videos. One video say that a actor or actress died of something, and other video says another thing abouyt the same person. In other video they said Judy Garland died at 42 years old and that Steve Mcqueen died of another thing.
@jerryaltman the info was off IMDB, a trusted internet source. Howevr there is usually controversy surrounding deaths anyway, if someone had cancer, people say they died of that, even if it was the heart attack that eventually killed them. I was 16 when I made this, when I was just startin out. If u want to know actual accurate facts, youtube is the wrong place to go anyway. This was mainly a tribute to the stars that have died. Im hoping to remake it, with just the years of their death and name
Its scary how many died of cancer and phuemonia, really puts things into perspective. I love old hollywood, and we really have thse people to thank for some of the amazing cinema we have today.
Magnificent, very poignant and touching. The only suggestion I can offer is that you include more silent screen actors in your next video. Many silent movie personalities died young and under interesting circumstances, which makes it all the more tragic and Hollywood. People such as John Gilbert, Renee Adore, Ramon Navarro, John Barrymore, James Murray, Barbara LaMarr, Wallace Reid, etc. Nevertheless, bravo and keep up the amazing work
TYhe only ones you forgot that can think of are Leslie Howard and Robert Taylor, but your video was otherwise incredible and I think you for including all my favorites! R.IP. Vivien Leigh, Bette Davis, Joan Crawford, Katharine Hepburn, Hedy Lamarr, Clark Gable, Laurence Olivier, Marlon Brando, Spencer Tracy, and Cary Grant.
A Reflection of Life and Death.............."though nothing can bring the splendor in the grass or the glory of the flower.............we shall grieve not.....but rather.........find strength........in what remains behind............(Wordsworth)".
First of all, a great video, VERY well done. But in fairness to the late Steve McQueen , he did NOT die from lung cancer despite being a smoker. It was caused from asbestos exposure.
thank you so very much for the post. i have many of these stars on V.C.R. like over 200 i think.i love old movies. i love all the old timers. i was just a kid when my mom and dad would take me and the other 3 to the movies and we saw these grate stars. you did a grate job doing this video. thank you once again.
So besides the ones that died of overdoses the others died because thats life. They got natural symtoms that cause people to die. The others killed themselves for some stupid reason instead of letting life take it's course.
do you realise that MOST (or almost all) of these actors died at a ripe old age..late 70s,80s and even 90s. Its amazing. They grew old gracefully and only a handful died young from overdose,which in present days would be the main reason they died. The others who died young were due to illnesses or accidents. How times have changed. These are the people/actors you can find inspiration from! These are the people 50 years on,and we still watch their movies,emulate their characters. RIP.
@inihsrahd i noticed that same thing , about most of them dying at a fairly ripe old age . it makes me feel awesome about the life span of my generation and how it will even grow older .
You also forgot Gloria Swanson. Swanson was the picture of a true star, She was also the highest paid actress of the 1920's and then immortalized the forgotten star "Norma desmonde" in Sunset Blvd.
The first pioneers of celluloid acting. They set high standards because there was no TV. They had the one chance to catch your attention. They also made B@C movies too. I thank them all from my childhood when I watched them all. Toujours Pret (always forward)
Beautiful tribute. Edward G Robinson was, I believe, 79 and not 69. I wish Irene Dunne would have been included, she was 91. I realize it's difficult to decide who is regarded as legendary and who is not, so no fault or unkind words meant to you. Beautiful and sad and nostalgic. Thank you.
uremic poisoning and kidney failure go hand in hand. (source Wikipedia) In kidney failure, urea and other waste products, which are normally excreted into the urine, are retained in the blood. Early symptoms include anorexia and lethargy, and late symptoms can include decreased mental acuity and coma. It is usually diagnosed in kidney dialysis patients when the glomerular filtration rate, a measure of kidney function, is below 50% of normal.
very nice tribute to those who are gone, there not many people left from that era anymore beside Joan Fortaine, Olivia De Havilland, Shirley Temple, Laureen Bacall, and Maureen O'Hara and Maureen is turning 89 monday!
Nice job on the vid !. It's amazing that many of the old timers lived as long as they did considering many drank and smoked their brains out in those days.
God, James Cagney was a great guy! I wish I could have met him, it's really sad when you hear about such great actors deaths. But hey, I guess he was lucky that he died in his later years.
I read that Errol Flynn's last words, as he lay dying and looking up at his 16 year old girlfriend were " My friends said you would kill me"..... he was one of a kind ...great tribute to those legends that have left us ..Thank you!
Very well done..interesting to see the difference in the death ages..Marilyn, James Dean and Judy dying so young..Then theres's Lillian Gish, Dietrich, Colbert and Ginger Rogers living into their 90's..
Marilyn Monroe - 36, James Dean - 24, the most of them died so early;-(But for that, they Entertaining and inspiring us in the history, the present and will do this in the future for the next generations too, simple for all Times;-)Much of them Inspiring a lot of Actors from today, so was Charlie Chaplin the role model for Jackie Chan, because he was the first Actor for him, which made all his dangerous stunts himself, equally Chan do this!!Did you know that??
Thanks for the info Gipsy.I'm anytime impressed when I hear, which paragons the Stars from today have in the history;-)I think Legends, which have made it in Hollywood are become immortal on this way :)
That's mostly because the studios knew how to pick out awesome stage names for them! ;) Marilyn's real name was Norma Jean Mortenson, Clark Gable's was William Gable . . . Humphrey Bogart WAS Bogie's real name, though! ;) Kinda wish there was still a studio system so, someone could tell me what my movie star name should be! Haha! :D
Great Star,s but still very much human, from illness to other enimies of health they were taken from us. What a peaceful yet all to real confrimation that life is short.
Wonderful video, I love this era of film actors, & not as keen on my on era, except for Meryl Streep can't think of many that are of this quality. Interesting how life ends for all, & this is a snapshot of life. Interesting to see cancer is the leading cause of this group, & that is holding true for boomers. Really overdoses were low, when everyone sees stars as having this problem. They in the end are just like the rest of us, living and dying and doing the best they can.
Thank you, thank you. They will always be remembered.

uremic poisoning and kidney failure go hand in hand. (source Wikipedia) In kidney failure, urea and other waste products, which are normally excreted into the urine, are retained in the blood. Early symptoms include anorexia and lethargy, and late symptoms can include decreased mental acuity and coma. It is usually diagnosed in kidney dialysis patients when the glomerular filtration rate, a measure of kidney function, is below 50% of normal.

For me the most tragic cases were Valentino, James Dean and Jean Harlow.
Also, what i wouldn't give for Vivien Leigh to have been alive in my lifetime.
Beautiful job xoxclaudia101xox;)

Nice job on the vid !. It's amazing that many of the old timers lived as long as they did considering many drank and smoked their brains out in those days.
DET832 2 years ago
thank you!! Yeah i know what you mean, i mean Marlene Dietrich smoked heavily all her life and lived to be 91/92.
I guess it shows how it affects everyone differently. Thankyou for watching!

God, James Cagney was a great guy! I wish I could have met him, it's really sad when you hear about such great actors deaths. But hey, I guess he was lucky that he died in his later years.

I read that Errol Flynn's last words, as he lay dying and looking up at his 16 year old girlfriend were " My friends said you would kill me"..... he was one of a kind ...great tribute to those legends that have left us ..Thank you!

Marilyn Monroe - 36, James Dean - 24, the most of them died so early;-(But for that, they Entertaining and inspiring us in the history, the present and will do this in the future for the next generations too, simple for all Times;-)Much of them Inspiring a lot of Actors from today, so was Charlie Chaplin the role model for Jackie Chan, because he was the first Actor for him, which made all his dangerous stunts himself, equally Chan do this!!Did you know that??

no I never knew that- but what an interesting fact. Thankyou for sharing!

Hello Tribute,
Jackie Chan is huge fan of Buster Keaton.
Chaplin was brilliant but did not utilize stunt work in his films like Keaton or Harold Lloyd.

Thanks for the info Gipsy.I'm anytime impressed when I hear, which paragons the Stars from today have in the history;-)I think Legends, which have made it in Hollywood are become immortal on this way :)

Heart failure at 99 for Lillian Gish? What then, do you refer to "natural Causes"?
Wished you could have added Yvonne De Carlo, too.Great tribute, though.

great video
biden1 2 years ago
That's mostly because the studios knew how to pick out awesome stage names for them! ;) Marilyn's real name was Norma Jean Mortenson, Clark Gable's was William Gable . . . Humphrey Bogart WAS Bogie's real name, though! ;) Kinda wish there was still a studio system so, someone could tell me what my movie star name should be! Haha! :D

Great Star,s but still very much human, from illness to other enimies of health they were taken from us. What a peaceful yet all to real confrimation that life is short.

Wonderful video, I love this era of film actors, & not as keen on my on era, except for Meryl Streep can't think of many that are of this quality. Interesting how life ends for all, & this is a snapshot of life. Interesting to see cancer is the leading cause of this group, & that is holding true for boomers. Really overdoses were low, when everyone sees stars as having this problem. They in the end are just like the rest of us, living and dying and doing the best they can.
