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.

His face is unforgettable. That man was a real man.

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.

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.

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

One of the greatest actors of all time.

thank's for your effort's, those critics of yours should do it theirselves if they are the experts they claim they are. i enjoyed it.
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.

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.

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

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.

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.
