If I didn't know from this video, I would've thought Melva Cornell was a star from the 1960's or 70's based on her picture. Very contemporary & modern (& drop dead gorgeous!)
Thats one of my favorite pictures of Bessie Love wish she would have never cut her hair but at the time all the stars were doing including Mary Pickford 😊
Brilliant but also heart breaking some of those stories. Especially the last one about Alma Rubens broke me, that story is not much different than today, 33 wow so young. What a beautiful young women then to have her life cut so short at 33, this is killing me.
Dame Mae Fishman, a rising star in the silent film era, was a force to be reckoned with. Born at the turn of the 20th century, she was one of the earliest female figures to dominate the silver screen.
I love silent movies. Give me a Buster Keaton silent film or short any day! I wish more people would give them a chance. I feel people have neither the patience nor attention span for silent films these days. Oh, how much they miss! From Lon Cheney’s dramatic performances, to Keaton’s unbelievable agility and physical comedy, or Chaplin’s sincerity, to Bow’s enthusiasm, and Lloyd’s charm. Too bad for them, I guess.
I'm pushing 60, and enjoy almost everything that is old and historic, but I have to admit that I have always found silents to be a real grind to watch. I would like to see versions made removing the unending title cards and adding a narration sound track. That might - just possibly - get a few more viewers to watch today. So many today won't even watch black and white, though, so I suspect that it is a losing battle.
Silent Movie Era was a great and special art form ....and produced unforgetable artists who were totally unique.....Pickford , Chaplin , Chaney , Lloyd , Valentino , Gish , Keaton , Langdon , Fairbanks , Bow etc ,etc,etc.
Trivia note: Witzel studio in downtown LA was the place where silent star Harold Lloyd was nearly killed while posing for publicity photos. Someone handed him what he thought was a prop bomb for a posed shot, and he lit the fuse and as it burned down he lowered it from his face level when it exploded. He lost his right thumb, index finger and the palm of his right hand, facial scars and temporary blindness. He wore two prosthetic fingers inside a tight flesh colored glove for the rest of his on screen career. Specks of bomb debris were in his eye for life.
Thanks for your effort in making this video; it's great to see the animation as well as the photos. Bessie Love was a stunningly beautiful woman, gorgeous at every age.
This is astonishing work! Thank you so much for all your efforts. We aren't that far away from recreating lost films or restoring lost sequences based on the original shooting scripts. As this goes well beyond just the standard production still and title card reconstruction.
You've done it again...bringing to us women who possessed the talent of conveying their character's story line with facial features and body language, a much harder job than speaking a few words. And to bring them back to life is so beautiful, so we can see what we missed 100 years ago. Thank You, from us and them.....
Excellent. Thank you. When the next generation of Quantum AI gets their priority on restoring these films, it will seem like a miracle. The next step will seamlessly bring these beautiful silent era actresses to the modern film era. These Quantum AI Supercomputers will modernize a movie to be indistinguishable from one made last year within an hour. Scary & exciting.
Still, you gotta admit the results are emotionally stunning. Looking at the living (appearance) of their faces, I found myself feeling sad for those women with tragic ends to their careers or lives. More so than just looking at the still images. The emotional response for me was heightened by this A.I. accomplished illusion. Brava/Bravo! 👏
Although Clara Bow was classed as the sexiest it girl of thev1920 there were prittier girls .But her end in life was a sad one .Rest in Peace Clara 🙏🌹Godbless you. I hope Your at peace now and found your Happiness.Amen🙏🕊🕊🕊🕊🦋🦋🦋🦋🌹🌹🌹🌹💐💐💐💐
Please, can someone help me? I have been trying to find the name of the song which begins at 6:00 featuring Marin Sais- I've already tried in the youtube music library but I've had no luck. Asher Fulero is the artist, the "MUSIC" under "Show more" lists the album as "Aurora Currents" but I don't find this song...
As always outstanding l would have liked some colour how long before we see these Beautiful ladies do more than just smile and blink their eyes l bet you are working on that now 😊
I never heard of most of these actresses, so thank you for the photos & biographies. Nice try, but "brought to life" is an overstatement. Blinking eyes, the same facial expressions and very slight head movements give more a robotic effect than anything else. Better to see them in actual movie sequences.
All very clever ai, but for real realism the point of light reflections in the eyes must stay in the same place as the eyes move around, something for the software tech people to achieve, c;
@@barneymm2204 I hate those damned bot voices, you'd think that with the technology they have these days they could program a bot to enunciate correctly.😑
Its amazing how technology today put colour into the pictures of these girls and how their eyes move i find that a bit creepy but not freaky.The music is quiet annoying i no u can lower it down and read the script.
good idea, but some women heads when they move, not their whole hair moves or hat(Marin Sais)(as if they put their head through a hole of another head standing still)
Many others are colorizing, and that's all well and fine, but I am a lover of B&W. My father was a photographer and taught me Darkroom work. We developed and printed all of our own B&W negatives and prints. Colorizing can be great, but let's not leave the beauty and artistry of B&W to be ignored or forgotten.
Just my opinion, drop the computer tricks in the small shifts and eye-blinks, Add more bio info. These beautiful women deserve to have their lives known to today's isolated people. Their bios show us the human condition which seemingly, needs to be told to today's youths.

Bessie almost looked like a kid dressed up as an adult

Melva Cornell is absolutely gorgeous, I don’t remember ever hearing of her
I agree then loosing her husband in 41 and her son in 45 before he was seven. She was hurt deeply and dying young.
I guess when plastic surgery isn't a thing... hmmm..
Natural beauty is hard to find these days.. hmmm
Beautiful photography brought to life!

TVO used to run silents on a regular basis - good films, good times 😊
They were all beautiful, looking at the era the one standing out to me was Bessie Love. She had the look of this era!
There are several still photos of Bessie Love that have that timeless quality. Somewhat eerie.
@arise2945 yes there are one when she is in her overhauls down by the stream looks like could be from 70's hippie look 😀

Wow What a beautiful looking girl Bessie love was, those eye beautiful, rest in peace to her amen 😘💗🌹
Having the photos move are creeping me out!
Really beautiful and interesting. Thanks History Scoop 👍
Many thanks!
They’re all quite beautiful, with or without the AI. But I’d really like to see them smile.
Melva looks as if she's in the wrong century.
Witzel was great. Loved the way he caught these women. I ❤ the silents. Thought the Artist was great!
As a lover of old movies, I really enjoyed this!
Beautiful women transcend times, and their beauty will be preserved in films forever.
This is 👍,💘 Bessie most of all,Melva is lovely as well😀
Melva was gorgeous, she looked so different then the rest!!
Excellent.

Loved loved love this ❣️Thank you a bundle 😊
Beautiful!!!
Those were the day's when Hollywood was great ❤
My studio keeping silent films alive!.
This technology is absolutely amazing!!
y gosh Albert Witsel is such a great beauty....
Animation effect is partially negated by the static portions outside of the animation area.

Brava/Bravo! 👏
Such beautiful hair
EXCELLENT!
I love movies from that period.
*We brunettes rock! lol* 💫💙💫
Not many blonds
Melanie Cornell was so beautiful!
great work. Clare Bow has been on my radar for a while. All beatiful women. I will now go check out Melva Cornell simply stunning.
Wonderful human beings.
Although Clara Bow was classed as the sexiest it girl of thev1920 there were prittier girls .But her end in life was a sad one .Rest in Peace Clara 🙏🌹Godbless you. I hope Your at peace now and found your Happiness.Amen🙏🕊🕊🕊🕊🦋🦋🦋🦋🌹🌹🌹🌹💐💐💐💐
A major reason many silent stars didn't succeed in talkies was the quality [or lack thereof] of their voices.
Interesting to see these Silent Film Actress' in "real life". I was hoping to see Viola Savoy.
Please, can someone help me? I have been trying to find the name of the song which begins at 6:00 featuring Marin Sais- I've already tried in the youtube music library but I've had no luck.

Christopher Moltisanti: "He was a Silent Era Beauty, Albert Witzel?"
Why are there two 3 Photos of Bessie on the pictures showing the names of the stars on the picture covers at the chapters view all?
As always outstanding l would have liked some colour how long before we see these Beautiful ladies do more than just smile and blink their eyes l bet you are working on that now 😊
Awesome!
No Mabel Normand though? 😭
Amazing ❤❤
Bebe Daniels has a strong resemblance to Lea Thompson
Let's not forget about Dame Mae Fishman

Melva Cornell ❤
It's Clara Bow (like bow tie).
Wow so haunting and touching
0:46 It’s pronounced like “hair bow”, not like “take a bow”.
“Bow” as in “beau.”
It's a robot voice, we have to endure, progress. C;
All very clever ai, but for real realism the point of light reflections in the eyes must stay in the same place as the eyes move around, something for the software tech people to achieve, c;
Clara bow cinéma américain Hollywood star américaine Hollywood classique ❤
Pronunciation is Clara Boe not Bow as in bowing down.
Voice is a robot.

Sad for Albert to pass at a younger age. Its too bad that he didn't have an apprentice or protégé
Melva Cornell reminds me of Jennifer Aniston.
This is creepy! Let these souls rest.
Sorry, I found the coming to life effect creepy. Like re-animating the dead.

The blinking eyes wasn't necessary.
better watch them in their movies
Clara Bow? Like Now or Bow Wow? 🤦🏼
Beau. It's a robot voice.
I think this era was the last glimpse we will ever have of truly feminine women
I'd like to see them colorized.
The forced AI movement is kinda creepy
Where's the coloring??.
- pastel the old movies for a fresh & clear viewing ! -
Many others are colorizing, and that's all well and fine, but I am a lover of B&W. My father was a photographer and taught me Darkroom work. We developed and printed all of our own B&W negatives and prints. Colorizing can be great, but let's not leave the beauty and artistry of B&W to be ignored or forgotten.
next colorize and she what they would look like today
God, pronounce the stars names CORRECTLY. It is Clara BOWE not "Baugh".
All Boys
Just my opinion, drop the computer tricks in the small shifts and eye-blinks, Add more bio info. These beautiful women deserve to have their lives known to today's isolated people. Their bios show us the human condition which seemingly, needs to be told to today's youths.
With a computer terminal at your fingertips it shouldn't be too taxing to look them up. Most modern day people just don't know or care.
Rather pointless given that you can already see them moving on celluloid?
