- The Untold Truth Of American Actor Lee Marvin
If you want to talk about prominent “tough guys” in Hollywood, then the American film and TV actor Lee Marvin has a special spot in that category. But there’s so much more about this actor than meets the eye; you’d be surprised to know he did this when he won an Oscar!

I waited on him at a dinner house, in my early 20's. He ordered 5deep fried oysters, double Shtolishnaya Vodka, no ice. I loooooved his voice, and he had nice manners
A co-worker was stationed at the Niki Base above Malibu in the late sixties He and some of his fellow servicemen discovered a bar where Lee Marvin warmed a stool. He claimed that they never had to buy their own drinks when Marvin was there.
I was blessed to have a great man who had a lower level of education. He served in both the 2nd World War and the Korean Conflict. He came home to find out that he had been listed as KIA, but he was very much alive. He came to Quebec Canada 🍁 but he had a mission to get to the other side of Canada 🍁. He didn't make it there. Dad met Mom and a family came along with his own love of movies that he passed along to me. I noticed that he was a image of John Wayne who had a voice of Lee Marvin. Both stars movies being favorites of Dad's and mine ❤
Gentlemen , as well as gentle ladies I might add , have it in them to be respectful of others , whoever they may be .
Either of high social status , or alternatively , a fellow traveller along lifes long pathway .
We're all of the same species , and therefore deserve to be treated as such .

Considering that he was a multimillionaire, he could easily afford to buy the drinks for everyone. There was no greatness in that.

So, you meet someone for the first time, briefly, and now you think you know all about them! Anyone can put on an act to deceive their simple worshippers like you for a short time. After all, he is an actor by profession.
Good job of resurrecting this guys story. Since I'm 104 years old, I can relate to this.
Wow 104 👍
Geez, 104 Congratulations Sir, 🙏🏼👍🏼
Nicely played, Jeff.
Keep it up.
I always loved Lee Marvin. I really loved Cat Ballou because he was so great in it. I didn't realize he was such a hero.
I can think of LIVING Hollywood actress who are also heroes would be Bob newhart. Mel Brooks Clint Eastwood Gene Hackman lone Wolf McQuade. ---- damn it. I can't think of any kids who are veterans!
One of my favorites was "Paint Your Wagon" with Clint Eastwood. It was a musical, and really funny. Hard to imagine those two singing, but they pulled it off well.
My favorite scene is when Marvin is drunk on his horse and they're both leaning against a building wall. The funniest part was his horse had it's legs crossed!😂
@@brianwells4507 They are getting in trouble by the kid's parents for letting him drink and smoke cigars and the kid says, "Shoot, a good cigar and a shot of whiskey are the second and third best things in life!" Still cracks me up!
Not long before his death, my wife and i were at a beach in Ventura Ca. An older couple came and sat about 15 feet from us. Yup, it was him! Wearing a marine corp ball cap and Aviator shades. Didnt get my attention until i heard him speak. I did not gush all over him, just said hi. He took off his shades so he could wink at my wife
WHAT AN AWESOME NEARLY UNIMAGINABLE COINCIDENCE!
I AM THE CONCOCTIONATOR! AND I CSN CONCOCT OR CONCOCTIONATENEARLY TO VIRTUALLY CONCOCT, CONCOCTIONATEOR INVENT NEARLY NY NUMBER OF THINGS INTO A NEW SINGLE THING BY CONCOCTInnnNG THEM!
@jerrybrown7669 maybe you should concoct a dictionary. Were you the Governor of California? He was an asshole too.
I imagine the Japanese sniper had intended a head shot , but when Lee suddenly stood up now you know how got shot near the butt area.
@ericporter1255.
After he winked at your wife, did he walk off with her and leave you alone on the beach with his wife?
@@redblade8160 lol. Nope. She stuck with me.
From one veteran to another, R.I.P Great man ❤
What a great man he was, what a brilliant personality actor, I was a high school guy and was skipping the days to see him in the movies in the cinema theatre during the class hours. I was born in communist Poland and was raised in there. He's a part of my life, same like Charles Bronson and other American beloved artists. RIP Lee Marvin my hero actor ...
Once a marine always a marine semper fi Marvin.
Probably because the years are so impressionable. I know in basic training that I had in a different branch of military they really like to call you a lot of names to degrade you believe you are as a person. Typically you have to scratch your way back to life doing every slight thing that is expected/ordered of you from then on. Who doesn't have any problem in their teens developing a balanced ego...?
@@ToddSloanIAAN
In the navy, did they make you paint the hull of the ship while it was still in the water?
SEMPER FI ! OOHRAH !
Semper Fi
OOHRAH !
Lee Marvin was a truly credible badass & he always played roles that suited him well!!! What do you expect,he was a Marine!!!
No wonder the dirty dozen was so damn good. They're all freaking vets!!!
SEMPER FI go's out to Lee Marvin. Rest In Peace Marine. May God bless his family. Ooorah !!!!
The man participated in over 20 combat island landings. I miss his acting. With Respect, Rest in Peace.
Long before Lee Marvin's history came out. I knew he was a Marine.
Jeez, I always thought that Jack Palance, & Charles Bronson were genuine, real life, tough guys, & good actors, but Lee Marvin was THE REAL tough guy,& he was a great actor, as for Bronson threatening him, he would have taken Bronson apart with half trying.
I’m not sure about Lee taking Bronson out. At that time in their lives, Marvin was an aging drunk and Bronson was still at his physical peak, with the physique of a body builder. Heave you seen Bronson’s arms and shoulders in some of those publicity photos? He had some guns.
Lee Marvin and other heroes deserve a human narrators, not AI. I kept going after his being awarded the "purple medal heart" but dropped out at his earning a dollar 7 for his acting. I'm sure tjere's better places to learn about Marvin's life.
Fuck AI ( i think it stands for anti everything especially life
Lee Marvin performing “Wondring Star” on the Ed Sullivan Show!
Yes, I like that movie, "Paint your Wagon". And who else was in that movie and sang in it? The whole thing was humorous as only those two could make it. And the fight scenes and the prat falls.
LEE WAS AN OFFICER AND A GENTELMEN AN A GREAT, GREAT, GREAT MAN. I.HOPE HES HOME IN HEAVEN WITH JESUS. HE JESUS CHILD REST WELL MY GREAT FRIEND.
Loved him in Paint Your Wagon.
Absolutely!
CERTAINLY 3:22 AMONG HIS GRETEST ROLLS@
3:22 ❤
allow me to edit please!😢🎉
?OOPS! EYE should have typed REELS☆☆☆☆☆
In ‘Cat Ballou’
That scenewith LM riding his horse drunk filmed from ‘the back of the horses head’ view was so funny!
You forgot to mention that Lee Marvin also starred in the mid 1980s Chuck Norris action film, The Delta Force.
To him his finest role was the one he played in the biggest show in human history,..WW2
I loved him in paint your wagon 😍
I met him in the navy when he appeared on the USS Grasp ARS24 when he was starring in the movie “Hell In The Pacific” that was produced in the Mariana Islands . He entertained us by showing us the directors cut of the film.
My favorite movie and actor I saw this movie at theater in LA in 1965 . In 1970 I was in the hospital ceaders of Lebanon I was 10 my dad met and talked with him In the hospital lobby. I would have liked to met him.
Those guys all great tough guys but I loved Jane for her looks she always unbelievable in beauty but her politics lousy - those guys gave their lives and body parts
Great actor
YOU FORGOT ABOUT LIBERTY VALANCE .
Donovan's Reef!
Lee Marvin was a truly great actor. He played tough guys very effectively.
He was just a great man once a marine always a marine 🇺🇲💯👍
It wasn't hard to like the man as an actor and a man's man, I always respected him for being so candid. and honest about his career and life. RIP LEE. ECF
It's not "Purple Medal Heart" there AI bot, it's just "Purple Heart".
Yeah,RUclips allows so many A.I. channels now.
@@HaveCheetahWillView Thus why I don't join channels with AI narrators and owners who don't participate in the Comments.
sloppy editing and narration
Once a Marine, always a Marine.
He's buried at Arlington National Cemetery, section 7A.
You are correct and I visited him last summer and we shared a bottle together. Semper fidelis Lee
I knew his older brother Bob very well. He was a professor of English at Columbia which is what their parents wanted for him. He was a painter of railroad cars. I cleaned their mothers house on Whitenburg rd. Bob called me "the girl who only wants to be entertained " and I called him "the better brother "
Got to call him a cab on an early Friday evening at the Maverick in Tucson. He and a couple of buddies had stopped in for beers after playing tennis. I teased the club manager about letting him in the club wearing shorts. He looked great, very tall and solid with a full beard just as white as his hair.
Lee Marvin’s greatest film for me was “Who Shot Liberty Valence.”
Great video/document/info about a hero, and one of my favorite actors, especially in The Dirty Dozen. BTW, there was a mention of "Purple Medal Heart" (at 2:50), which he received. It is the "Purple Heart" medal. Thank you for the info about Lee Marvin.
It’s AI , what do you expect. My question regarding AI is , what the hell were they thinking , or were they too stoned out of their gourd to think ????
People aren’t going to like it when the terminator shows up and starts terminating
Always wondered why he wasn't in on the The Magnificent Seven
I used to be friends with Lee in Cairn's Q AU. He kept a marlin fishing boat there, i was skippering a trawler there. We met in the Barbary Coast a fisherman's pub. He was just one of the boys, no "i am a star" with lee.
"The Big Red One" probably wasn't much of stretch for him to "act" in. If it wasn't a cakewalk for him, he made you think it was!
Please hire a human narrator.
AI bots are annoying! Can't pronounce names, places..correctly!
"The Big Heat" is pronounced here as "The Big Heart "
And that’s just the tip of the AI iceberg
AI will ice us all
I heard Lee was the first choice to play the skipper in Jaws, but he thought the movie about a killer shark was corney and wouldn't be successful. So the producers went with 2nd choice Robert Shaw.
I knew a guy who knew Lee said that when he would get drunk and shoot at rats at night on the beech, the cops would just seal off the area and leave him be! That's probably NEVER happened for anyone else.
The AI voice made no mention of Paint Your Wagon which was one of his most successful movies.
Never saw a sight that didn't look better looking back (or something like that).
Why miss out PAINT YOUR WAGON ???
Lee Marvin was also a direct descendant of Robert E. LEE ❤
NO SURPRISE THERE ! LCPL James Matarazzo ! Third Marines 1969 VIETNAM.
According to wokes, this would be nothing to brag about. Woke is just another word for stupid.
@@davelubin3682 YOU got that RIGHT !
@@davelubin3682 YASSUH BOSS ! YOU GOT THAT RIGHT !
* Lee Marvin was one of my patients at the hospital where he died. I was working the day he died, I still remember the Code Blue to his room and knew that he was dying.

"Duck you sucker" loved it as a child. They changed the name of the movie 😂😂😂😂😂😊
"You're on guard duty, Maggott!"
You forgot when he fought a android boxer in the Twilight zone.
Love Lee Marvin!
It reaches in when a combat vet does so well. Combat usually means booze or drugs later. Marvin handled his PTSD as well as he could given the circumstances in those years when not many understood what war does to one's soul. A good man who made it as best he could. Audie Murphy was another. The book, NO NAME ON THE BULLET is a worthy read.
When they were filming the dirty dozen, Charles Bronson (another combat veteran) had go Marvin out of a bar to finish shooting a scene. Some thought it was his best work.
Wheb I was 8 yrs old my parents took me to see The Man Who Shot Liberty Valance.I fell madly in love with Liberty,played by Lee Marvin. I know,Liberty is areally bad guy,but,He stayed with me all these years. In my heart,..still is. lol
I'm sure he acted in Harry in your pocket about pick pockets who travel the world.
@@eugenevoltaire8681 Ok....
ENOUGH OF THE GODDAMNED COMPUTER GENERATED VOICES!!
Not many Marines were awarded the Purple Metal Heart, and Mr. Marvin only displayed it when wearing his full metal jacket!
Thanks for that tongue in cheek laugh.
God bless our vets.
I watched what were probably reruns in the 60s, I remember seeing Cat Belou at a drive in theatre in the Catskill Mountains when I was a little kid.
Great actor. Also seemed like a nice guy.
Don't forget Pete Kelly's Blues with Jack Webb. Oh, and Ship of Fools.
He was an American Hero...
I wouldn't say his career started to wane after, "Big Red One", but rather it was simply impossible to top such a perfect movie.
"He earned dollar 7". Translated: $7. AI voice-over needs an upgrade.
It's AI narration
Larger than life. I loved him on What's My Line?
I Heard He's Related to Civil War General Robert E. Lee. May He R.I.P.
IT'S NOT PICKET MONEY ; IT WAS POCKET MONEY ! G
et it right or get another job !
Myself and my mother were extras in the film Prime Cut filmed in Calgary Alberta Canada. Like is said in this RUclips he didn’t spend time with other actors he spent time with the crew and actually street people in Calgary who also liked booze. He said he was no better than them so that was how he thought of himself. I personally like that and didn’t put himself on a pedestal.
Uhh you didn't mention Paint Your Wagon with Clint Eastwood a musical western he sung in
& it got to number 1 in the hit parade, i remember it as a kid, Marvin had the deepest voice ever ! !
ditto! ... great movie.
"The Glory Blade"? "Dollar 7/week"? Dyslexic Ai. That's all we need.
@2:12 Tinian - Didn't the Marine Corps call Tinian the 'perfect campaign'?
Good info on Marvin, although the pictures and videos often don't relate to the audio. It would have been nice to have a human tell me he won the Purple Medal Heart, and earned dollar seven weekly in his first acting gig. Oh, and no mention of Paint Your Wagon?
You forgot the Twilight Zone. As a robot Boxer.
Purple Hearts are not a Valor reward.
Great actor❤️RIP🌹
Another AI narration
I wish you would use real people not computers
Actually i don't know if Lee Marvin married or not im sure he didn't or may be i wouldn't besure but ine thing i know he was a return veteran the marines and was very highly train marine its wonder the dirty dozens was a top film because they all were returned veterans absolutely top picture Lee him self was tops in all films he actored 👍
Good video, but I do have some minor criticism. First, no mention of one of his best performances, with John Wayne in The Man Who Shot Liberty Vallance. Second, two of the movies he appeared in were misnamed. He was in a movie called The Big Heat, but the video says it was The Big Heart. The other movie was called The Hot Picket in the video, but in reality it is called The Hot Pocket. And what is a Purple Medal Heart? Get a real person to give the narration, not AI!
'Love lee marvin,but "cat ballou" isnt even in top 200 wrsterns of all time,never mind 10th,whoever stated it was 10th best western ever knows nowt about western film!!
What's a purple medal heart?
When a man / woman is wounded in battle he will receive The Purple Heart - it is a medal that deserves respect.
You forgot to mention his films with John Wayne. True classics
RIP🇺🇸
What about paint your wagonthat was a very funny film.
Met him renting videos at Blockbuster on Grant Rd in Tucson. He was outside leaning on his classic and limited production Chrysler 300.
Excuse me. I need a tissue.
Me too. I miss that man.
"Gorky Park", and "Shout at the Devil" brilliant film's.
Dollar seven weekly...hilarious!
Sadly like many of these videos it was an AI voice.
L EE a true professional
That movie Picket Money. As in pocket fences?
"The Big Heart"? Good video. Shame about iffy AI narration.
I was named after him when my mum met him .
Why does this sound like a robot is reading this? Purple Medal Heart? Dollar 7 a week?
Why no mention of his novel role with Clint Eastwood in 1969's Paint Your Wagin which was comical, sensitive at times, and he even sang
Cat Ballou is one of my fave films. So damn funny, in the olde days way.
He's a bad ass
The Purple Medal Heart... Yeah, ya gotta luv AI
Named my son Lee after Marvin and Bruce 😂
my favorite aactor ben rumson
I liked him anyway.
Why do you Photoshop all the pictures to make them look considerably older than they really looked at the time they died?
Really why would they do this
Hell in the Pacific!
yeah je
Well -- the title is wrong. If this is supposed to be the 'truth' -- then do not say the 'last school Lee was kicked out of was St. Leo College'. St. Leo College did not even EXIST until 1963! He was asked to leave ST. LEO COLLEGE PREPARATORY SCHOOL --- not the college -- and that was YEARS B/4 the college existed. If this easily checked fact is wrong --- what are we to believe about the rest of this presentation? :-0(
"Purple Medal Heart?"
He didn’t say dog “manure“ I can bet you that much.
