Rudolph Valentino's Voice

- A documentary style educational video in which I try to recreate or imagine Rudolph Valentino's speaking voice using interviews with his brother Alberto and nephew Jean, and his songs as a reference point. The dialogue I have created is very short; it was both a challenging and fun project. I have also used a snippet of Kashmiri Love Song which Valentino recorded for fun.
Rudolph Valentino had beautiful eyes and when you look into his eyes they have an hypnotic effect.
This is so cool! He sounds just like I thought he would! I’m sure I would’ve fainted on sight had I ever heard his voice. 😍
Lol Me too!
I'm sure I would faint on sight if I saw you in person. You're pretty!!!
Good thing you havent heard mine then

A lot of silent movie stars lost their jobs when talkies started. Rudolph would of been an even bigger star
Rudy would have passed muster no problem
Some of the silent movie stars didn't speak English, and some spoke with very heavy accents. While others had voices that studio execs felt weren't right for films with sound. A lot of people were out of work for those very reasons. I can't imagine what that was like. That's Hollywood.
He would have been a lead in a few early "Talkies" then a supporting player due to his accent. Just like Ramon Navarro, Antonio Moreno.
Rudolph would have made a great romantic lead in the talking pictures...he had Italian blood in his veins and would have given Gable a run for his money.
Oh Yes!
Rudy's voice is so beautiful, enchanting and powerful even with the poor recording quality. Thanks for posting this. I love you Rudy Valentino!
Thank you so much for your comments! He did have such a lovely voice!
@@ourrudy3209 he's Amazing. I can't forget him. He's such a handsome, talented ,versatile and expressive actor. Plus he had a heart of gold.❤️
Me too i love him
He was very, handsome!
Hes my granpa everybody say we look the same but im plus size..
Jk hes not my grampa but i kinda look like him. Im very hendsome too and famous
He's the most beautiful man I have ever seen even though he was way before my time
That's not bad singing! Even though not trained as an opera singer, he should have made more recordings than just two songs!
And it sounds like he would have been the biggest star in the talkies. Hypnotic is the word that comes to mind.
Can't get enough of this Beautiful Man 🤩 He Was So Gorgeous 💜💙💚💛🧡❤
Me too.... I’m obsessed with this gorgeous man.
Me too.... I’m obsessed with this gorgeous man.
Anthony Dexter, who starred in the 1951 film, "Valentino", was virtually a double of the real Valentino.
Just incredible Rudolph Valentino, the little clip in the end with his voice for few seconds. I imagine him and his brother sounded familiar. Thank you for posting video
Can't get enough of Rudy..r.i.p prince of cinema..
For sure he had a VERY pleasant voice!!! He was an absolute ladies man and you can look as good as you want, if you have a voice like Mickey Mouse, then all sex appeal is immediately gone. Women do like men with deep pleasant voices...
I agree. I’ve always been curious about how we would know someone was really hot back in the days before we’d ever likely actually hear them speak. There’s a whole part of the appeal that only takes place in one’s imagination. It’s interesting to think about but I don’t think I’d crush on anyone without hearing their voice.
There is a definite physical resemblance between Valentino and his nephew. There have always been rumours that he was actually the boy's father.
A compelling case of circumstantial evidence was introduced that may well stand up in a court of law ... however, I'm sitting on the fence on this one because I can refute or challenge some of the points raised ... the Valentino family vehemently refute the claim ... I guess we'll never really know ... but there are also claims and some evidence that he did sire a son, whose mother was of mixed race. This is in the early French language biography of Valentino written by Jean DeRequeville (not sure the spelling is correct).
Valentino certainly left us many mysteries in his life that are utterly fascinating in themselves. Contradictions abound! I certainly part of the fun of being a Valentino fan.
@@ourrudy3209 Call me crazy but in my imagination that's why he had to leave Europe...maybe his family just wanted to hide the fact that a 17 year old impregnated someone. The boy was born eight months after he arrived in NY...
@@camarmena It's certainly a possibility ... I've heard even more colourful rumours than that about why Valentino left Italy .... being Jean's real father is actually less eyebrow raising than the other one's I've heard!
@@ourrudy3209 Tell us, tell us....please!!!!
@@camarmena Rumours surfaced in Italy from a very old man (though still too young to have actually known Valentino) who came from the area Rudy lived before he left Italy ... that at the age of 17 he was cuckolding a gentleman with both his wife and his daughter - having an affair with both of them - the scandal of this caused such a blackening of his name that he would never find a wife of good name in his hometown. Valentino never admitted to such an affair - however in a press interview he did admit that he had fallen in love with ladies that were the age of his own mother and it had caused her much sorrow. He also admitted that at that age he had been a lothario and would not have been able to marry a good catholic girl because of his reputation at that time. The real reason he left Italy isn't known for sure but there seems to be some truth in the rumour that his reputation played a part in his having to leave - for the sake of the good name of his family.
Wow voice is very masculine ..and stronge ..i love your voice the valentino's ..😀😀.the men more elegant and more nice.
Thank you for your encouraging comments - these comments really do inspire me to keep going and create more videos!
He would be older than my great grandfather but im still in love 😂
My great grandmother was 22 when he died. She was devastated. She said she cried till she could barely breathe. I have adored him ever since I can remember.
@@maudemathildeh335 You are not the only person I've heard, whose grandmother or great grandmother was present at his funeral, or knew about Rudy. All these lovely women shared their love for Rudy to the next generations.
He came in the wrong era love him so much despite the time is over a century yet still one of the kind
Sentire la voce di Rudy e come " averlo" vicino a noi 🔥💖
Bedroom voice, wow. I want to hear more.
in so many ways
literally-
The man had that it quality that very few had. You can try to describe it a million and one ways but when you see it it’s so simply and yet indescribable.
I guess it’s no surprise how queen mentioned Rudolph Valentino in their song good old-fashioned lover boy. I mean like they say the man could charm even back from the 20s.
And to the 20s in the next century! One really has to have something special in his/her looks to amaze people almost 100 years after his/her death!
@@katarina5233 💯💯💯🙌
I have read a couple of books about him and I think from what I have read, and watching videos , that he was modest, kind and sensitive with a great sense of humour.
Such a great sadness that he did not live to go on to his full potential. I bet he would have gone in to directing. He seemed to like being at the other side of the camera too.
Oh my gosh! His nephew that is talking about getting gifts from America from him is his doppelganger! That is what he would have looked like had he gotten old.
His nephew looks more like him than his brother!
Rumored to be his son.
@@Luvie1980 no way, really!? What's the back story?
@@Jersey.D3vil it’s been rumored that he had a child out of wedlock. And because he was Catholic and Italian this was looked down upon. So they made up the story that he was Rudolph’s nephew. Similar thing that happened to Bobby Darin.
@@Luvie1980 THAT'S ABSOLUTELY RIGHT ABOUT RUDY 🧖VALENTINO💘 AND LATER ON BOBBY DARIN!
He had a really nice, masculine voice. His nephew looked more like him than his father.
Deep, smooth and a sexy accent. I like it.
My son almost died of his bleeding ulcer twice. Ulcers are no joke! We didn’t even know he had it.
The Kashmiri Love Song was his favorite song from what I read. He actually did take a few vocal lessons....His nephew looks a lot like him! There is a part of the (Kashmiri Love Song) UPDATE...meant "EL Relicario" ... in which he stops singing and reverts to a more spoken lyric...very short bit....One can only say that he did not have a high, thin speaking voice! I believe it was Gloria Swanson who said he had a lilt to his voice, that it was "Continental' but there was no heavy Italian accent....
Ah yes ... El Relicario .... it's so tantalising ... every now and again the sound of Valentino's speaking voice just pops up showing us that just about every part of him was perfect!
yes Jean Valentino, does look like his uncle and apparently same timbre of voice, deep and baritone.
@@chrysakik I haven't learned about anything specific, but he sang some popular songs with his friends as they joked around..
@@chrysakik I seem to remember some songs mentioned but I don't have time at the moment to find the story...but will look soon.
@@secretariatgirl4249have you found out what songs 😊
Thank you, this is fabulous!!! I’ve always researched trying to find something like this! Would you ever do one for T.E. Lawrence? I’ve read pages and pages about how wonderful, low, soft, cultured and attractive his voice was...and thankfully there’re recordings of at least Arnold Lawrence and possibly Bob! Would be so cool if you did 😍😍 thanks again for posting!
Thank you so much for your comments! I am also a massive fan of T.E. Lawrence ... watch Peter O Toole play him a great deal .... have read The Seven Pillars of Wisdom. Your idea is very intriguing and would be one heck of a challenge ... I am still trying without success to create a better Valentino's voice video ... maybe one day I will be able to do both!
Oooh yes, I have confidence in your ability to do both! One day 😍 I highly recommend “T. E. Lawrence by His Friends” (edited by AW Lawrence) and “A Prince of Our Disorder” by John Mack if you haven’t read those yet about Lawrence too! Thank you again, such a wonderful video!
An icon who sadly left us way too soon. Had he lived long enough to make it to the talkies, I feel confident his career would have soared higher than what it was when he died. Plus, it seems like he could carry a tune well!
No doubt
For a recording of that era I don't think that's a bad one at all. His voice is clear. Modern recording pros can take away that surface noise, too. For somebody who wasn't training to sing in his career, I think he does great. Had he lived into the talking era and musicals, I think he would have done just fine.
That voice suits him so well ,perfect like him 😍 ❤ 💖
Rudolph Valentino’s nephew looked a lot like him so we can see how Valentino would have looked had he lived longer
There's a big chance he had a similar voice as his brother. Someone said he had a slight Italian accent, but they thought he probably could have successfully switched to talkies. It would have been so ironic his real voice might have got him tough guys roles. I don't mean that to disrespect anyone. But Rudolph Valentino was described as likeable and I was thinking how ironic if he'd had a tough guy voice that got him type cast as tough guys once talkies began. I heard he was fond of children and that he babysat the movie crew's kids on one of his films why the crew went to dinner. I heard he worked hard and wanted to be a good actor. Valentino basically seems like a good guy from what I've read. I think he would have been getting the roles actors like Robert DeNiro and Al Pacino got in the 70's and 80's. Its amazing nearly a 100 years after his death we're still talking about him. He's very fascinating
Rudolph Valentino as we all know and feel died much to young 💔 so sad. He had so much more to live for. I feel that if Rudolph would have survived he would have done so much more with his career. Eventually when talking movies came along and his being so creative as a designer and director. He had so much passion and feelings for animals such an animal lover and his love for children. I would hope he would Eventually marry again and start a family that we all know he wanted so very much. Although I did not know him personally just by watching him and some of his writings he was a very kind and loving young man his love for his family he was very family oriented it was in his blood. I am sure as so many he had his moments with women after all he was very handsome a gentleman. I really do feel that his first love was and always will be to me is Natasha. ❤️ I have not seen any bad things that were said about him. Alot of men were very jealous of his handsome looks and being so romantic with his beautiful dark skin and dark eyes. He was one of a kind and he was so very misunderstood so sad. He had a sadness about him and at the same time so much kindness to. 💕 As the saying goes "when they made Rudolph Valentino they threw away the mold" I loved the way his eyes would show so much feeling and emotion his big beautiful eyes would open so wide and squint the next moment he was born to be a star he was a legend in his own time such an icon a shining star. We all know Rudy will always be remembered and never ever forgotten. Much love hugs and prayers. ❤❤❤🙏🙏🙏🌹🌹
It’s been said he wanted to have a family
Fascinating, thanks !
iO LO AMO! AMO RODOLFO VALENTINO, VIVO O MORTO, SECOLARE, OVUNQUE.
Fascinating!
His nephew looks so much like him!!
He was so sweet he had the same kind of voice as his nephew. 💕 he was so talented he was so ahead of his time. He would have been amazing if he did not die so young. A real gentleman. He loved children and animals. God rest his sweet soul. Amen. 😍💙💙💙🙏🦶
Sweet? He was Gigolo man.
His Leading Ladies ' Swooning was due really by the
Ever Present smell of Italian Garlic
I can completely understand how he became a matinee idol. Wow
It´s Rodolfo, not Rudolph. He was Italian.
Fun Fact: The Brad Pitt of the 1920's had a wife named Natasha who was a huge spiritualist. The movie scripts he brought on set and given to the director came from his wife Natasha who would hold a seance every night calling forth help from the spirit world in her creative undertaking. Then pencil in hand she would go into a trance and begin writing. So in other words, the movies you see him in were literally handed over from the demonic realm.
Shouldn’t it be the other way around since Valentino came first
Numero 1 al mondo di bellezza e di attore
Del ayer, del recuerdo imborrable al paso del tiempo, su imagen la misma. Con el sentimiento de no poder y saberlo vivo.
Te amoooooo ❤❤❤❤
Sono sorpresa,non pensavo avesse una voce cosi forte perché mi avevano detto che era calda pastosa ma non forte. Comunque una piacevole sorpresa Meraviglioso ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
I wonder if there’s a way AI can help enhance the audio.
Era bien buenmozo este Rodolfo Valentino....se veía bien machote....
A que edad falleció ??....se casó alguna vez??..porque no se sabe mucho de él..
Tenia 31 anos de edad cuando fallecio el senior Valentino.
The singing is UNBELIEVABLY good. Who can even sing like this today?!
He must of had a wonderful speaking voice to match those looks sad for him and all of us that we never got to hear him speak on film
They' is diffinate resemblance between me & my niece....! But that doesnt make me her Mother...my sister is her Mother...we all resemble......
So true ... I look like one of my uncles .... but he certainly wasn't my father!
Valentino is my ídol, always.
Is that olive Thomas in the clip?
I was watching an interview to el Indio Fernandez and according whim he met Valentino and supposedly he was going to take him after his trip to New York but sadly he passed
I heard women around the world killed themselves over him
In Japan it was reported that two schoolgirls were so distraught that they jumped into the crater of a volcano.
@@deewesthill4705 WOW REALLY!?THEY ACTUALLY JUMPED INTO A VOLCANO 🌋 IN JAPAN 🗾!?
Who is more female fans Rajesh Khanna or Rudolph Valentino

If thats his voice, It sounds masculine and no problem for him to transition into sound movies!! Unlike his rival Ramon Novarro whose gay voice was so notoroius!!
Lmao explain "gay voice"
@@sonsapothecary2267 yeah!! Ramon Novarro from Mexico who played in Ben Hur first Holiwood version was homosexual and Its speculated or believed by some that Valentino may have been gay.
The Valentino gay false narrative has been discredited beyond doubt but people are still fooled by it and others spread it in an effort to monetise it .... for book sales etc.
@@desertfox3917 oh... so you're homophobic?
RUDY🧖 VALENTINO💘 IS A HITRASEXAL MALE 👨 AS HIMSELF WHO IS DEFINITELY WOW A REAL LADIES MAN 👨!
Valentino had a hot singing voice. ❤
Can you please explain what Rudy is doing here at @:34? Is this a play? Behind the scenes? I see he is showing his wonderful, comedic side, but not sure what these scenes are about.
