Some stars are born great, others have greatness thrust upon them. The stories of Gloria Swanson, perhaps the most successful actress of the silent era, and Valentino, the Great Lover, the idol of millions of women in the 20's whose private life was just the opposite, possible divorce and looming bankruptcy.
Two of the great romantic legends of the silent screen are profiled. Rudolph Valentino's on-screen persona is remarkably different from his real personal life, as recounted by his brother, Albert, and Gloria Swanson recalls her meteoric rise - and fall - with remarkable candor.
Valentino...so sad...died lonely and he suffered so much in great pain as his life ebbed away...very tragic.
That is the sad and cruel side of us women, we are impossible to live without, and sadly to often impossible to live with. Rudy was walking in women, in love with few and loved only one.
She was only thinking of her own succes, Rudy was just the way to fame for her. Had he known that she never would spend one night at 'Falcon Lair' I dont think he would have wanted the place, but he was not informed because that might have ruined her plans.
At the very end he was alone, he liked Pola Negri but he did not love her, I think she might have bin a good comfort after Rudy realized that Rampova was gone for good.
He died lonely and unhappy, and I am very sure that he must have asked himself, 'what on earth did I do wrong', I did everything I could, and the summer 1922 at Fox Lair at upper NY Natasja and I had a summer full of love and passion, what did I not se?????.
What he did not se was, that he married a woman twice, who took a good use of him and left for good, if he knew what was coming, he would not have smiled at the train station after that kiss, would he???.
R.I.P. Darling Rudy....
and so gorgeous!
Ironically, the 2 superstar actors of the era both labelled "The Great Lover" Valentino & John Gilbert were both exploited by their beautiful female lovers; Natasha Rambova & Greta Garbo. Traumatic emotional dramas that arguably led to their premature deaths.
I thank Thames Television for producing this. To do this at a time when all these people were still alive is what is known as Oral History. It is just wonderful, and yes there is a new love of silent films.
I adore this !
THE VERY BEST HOLLYWOOD DOCUMENTARY SERIES EVER! James Mason is superb! Wonderful interviews of the people who made silents. Most entertaining! Thank you for posting!
I agree my favourite episode is in the beginning
The Same Here!
Loving this documentary, better than today's TV! Fab costumes gloria wore!
What a splendid program, with the great James Mason at the helm. Silent films were a true art form in themselves , simply because you had to act the dialogue. I believe these great old films will have there day again, as pure Theatre, as the CTV. and real drama makes realistic acting redundant.
This was just fabulous about Rudolf Valentino enjoyed it so much. Also was Gloria Swanson..
I love the way she deadpans the line, "They said he was a nice lion" - gives a withering sideway glance, "Two weeks later, it almost killsed someone" - dismissively, "We didn't know that then."
Carl Davis' soundtrack for this series is fantastic. No other composers write better music for silent films.
I've seen this video 5 times and I can't get enough of it.
Me too going on my third time 😊
Cut out of the tango scene in this version, but now revealed in my blog (and doing the video now and there are some pics and short on my channel up already) is a man named Frank Varanelli, sitting watching Valentino tango....related to me by marriage of my grand uncle....and he is CLEARLY visible in the scene with Alice Terry as they dance in the "tango palace." That's him peering over the left should of Valentino...stills are even better! He also was a stand in for Valentino according to the family stories.
Really love this series. Thank you!

such a star!
The timeline is off...The Eagle premiered in early Nov 1925 in NY...Rambova had gone in August and filed for divorce in Paris in Dec..after the NYC premiere he left for Paris to fulfill the residency requirements which were met by Dec. 18. By Jan 18, 1926 the final papers would be forthcoming in weeks. He had met Negri in the fall, but it was after his retiurn that they really took off...at least in Pola's eyes.
From the looks of this interview, what with headdress, gown-thing, and surrounded by glamorous detritus, Swanson had incorporated Norma Desmond into herself - except, lucky for us, without the crazy. Swanson is rational and a marvelous storyteller. As for Valentino - he has to be the first celebrity tragedy on a GLOBAL scale, no? Paved the way for all the sad cases that came after: Monroe, Elvis, so on. Valentino's popularity of the time was a testament to the sexual neuroses that existed in a repressed era. It's weird how they let him just die - that story still doesn't make sense to me.
There was no more they could do at that stage of his condition. There were no antibiotics at the time with which to treat him.
A perforated ulcer is still very serious and can still lead to death, even with the best treatment. Inevitably, the infection would have spread to his bloodstream and he would have died of sepsis, something that still kills people today even in modern, developed countries.
Nothing could. befurther from the truth. She was an upbeat person who kept busy until she died. She had a radio then TV show, she sold her own line of health food, then clothes, she was involved. in charities. She lived in New York and was always out and about.
@@steveweinstein3222 I didn't say anything bad about Swanson. In fact, I applauded her for not succumbing to the usual Hollywood self-destruction. How can you completely misunderstand what I wrote? ESL?
@@classiclife7204 "headdress gown thing." "surrounded by glamorous detritus" "Swanson had incorporated Norma Desmond into herself" - if that's not bad-mouthing her, I'd hate to see what you say when you really are bad-mouthing someone.

Thanks, I've been growing interest in Silent Movies recently thanks to my favorite show "Boardwalk Empire."
God broke the mold after he created Rudolph Valentino. Never ever will there be such a gorgeous man as he.
I never realized How seductive Valentino was. Very attractive man.
Gloria Swanson Is A GREAT Actress 👍 👌 👏 🙌 😀 😄 👍 👌 👏 🙌 😀 😄!
Gloria Shawson Is A GREAT Actress 👍 👌 👏 🙌 😀 😄 👍 👌 👏 🙌 😀 😄!
From what I've seen/read since I saw this the last time, Valentino's wife had a hand in his career descent. She was stupid. Per Wikipedia Valentino developed sepsis. It is an extremely dangerous infection. There were no real antibiotics when Valentino was stricken, and so it killed him at such a young age. Sad.
RUDY VALENTINO IS SO GORGEOUS 😍 ❤ 💙 ♥ 💖 ✨!
Fab documentary by James Mason etc, well never see the likes of this again. A lot of these stars worked damn hard to get where they were. The Male and female film was incredible, and God forbid, how on earth Gloria wasn't killed I'll never know. Risks, health and safety. The lengths some of these stars went, but that said Hollywood made or broke you. Wasn't around to say at that time!
Years ago i watched an interview (Dick Cavet?) with Gloria and Janice Joplin. Talk about an unlikely couple! There was Joplin obviously drugged in typical Drug Culture hippie form. She wasn't strung out at all, but all hippies looked like that then. There also was Gloria, with her all her glamour clothes and tight face lift. I'd never seen her before as herself, just knew she was silent era star. Well, she was wonderful. She was so at ease and friendly to poor Janice in a stupor. And she was so interesting. Don't know if I'd think the same watching it today, but I was impressed!
Pola Negri was besotted with Valentino, she claimed he wanted to propose to her with a engagement ring. She was beside herself with grief. Hollywood Babylon book suggested Valentino was bisexual, not sure if this was true, loved these pics all the same ❤❤❤
There is no evidence he was bi but plenty of evidence he was attracted to women.
15:56 if you look closely you can see Henri de la Falaise ditching out of the car to escape being buried by flowers
RUDY VALENTINO HAS A GREAT SINCE OF HUMOR TOO 🤣 😆 🙄 😄 😂 😀 🤣 😆 🙄 😄 😂!

RUDY VALENTINO IS SO MUSCULAR 🔥 👌 😍 💯 %!😳 ❤ !

Third time watching this ❤
If you just have sex appeal, Hollywood will typecast you until you can't even watch your own films anymore. But charisma, that's rare and those actors can, watch their films. Talent totally helps!! But unfort. in the business part, connections count almost as much. Sick. Make it or not or have it yur dream, its just fame and fortune in the end. 2 very shallow things I've realized that in time that will not bring you happiness. Because, besides being shallow, omg i found, thank God in time it's the darn journey that counts all along. Not the end result. Trust! Happy Trails 😊
Gloria a démarré ça carrière chez Mack Sennette elle fesait partie des belles beigneuses.
Swanson was like princess Di. Not that great to be so adored.
But when talkies came out he dump her.her no used for her.
Their Lost!
What happened to us
She had magnificent eyes.
Well sex isnt all of it ...Edward G Robinson didnt have sex appeal..or Boris Karlov, or May Robson
Gloria Swanson had great eyes, but a weak mouth.
RUDY VALENTINO HAS DREAMYBEDROOMEYES ARE SO AWESOME 👌 👏 👍 😍 💖 💪 👌 👏 👍 😍 💖 💪!
Valentino's studio were nasty and vindictive. They treated him like that because he was Italian and not Jewish!
ABSOLUTELY RIGHT ABOUT RUDY VALENTINO!
