I LOVE Charles Bronson! But my heart goes out to his first wife; the fact she was good enough to support Charlie during his days as a struggling actor really says a lot about her character. Women like that are rare (especially these days!)
He was in alot of tv westerns early in his career alongside jack elam , jame collbern, and clint eastwood on rawhide, he paid his dues and made it. Good for him !
Charles Bronson my hero of the screen. When i was 14yrs old Charles was becoming a real superstar establishing himself and getting better movie parts until he was the main star . I always got excited when he brought out a new film because you new what you where in for. Today iam 60yrs old . That Star quality has gone and well missed. Thank you Jerry Skinner . Love your presentation and accent.
Your storytelling is amazing. Such respect on telling the story of a life. No judgments...just facts told in such a wonderful manner. Thank you for all that you do.
One of my all time favorite actors. Death Hunt is in the top three favorites for me. A talented artist, hard worker, WW2 Vet; combat, wonderful father, husband and overall human being. He makes me strive to be a better man. Thank you for posting this.
I always appreciate Charles Bronson as a military man who got his arm shot as a tail gunner on a B-29 bomber over Guam during WW2. I know you made a lot of movies and was married to Jill Ireland.....but the fact that you served America when needed means more to me. Thanks Charlie
Hey I'm 47 too..i started to became fan of him in the early 80's(as pursued by my father) and thanks to this wonderful great video life story tribute to Bronson!
I'm also 47 & I've been a fan since I was a child. My grandfather & Bronson shared military barracks, in the U.K., back in WW2. They weren't friends, but they knew each other & would say hello. My grandpa said "Chuck was always working out/lifting weights". I grew up watching his movies (often with my grandpa) back in the 1970s-80s. In the 1990s my GF & I would rent Bronson movies (from Blockbuster) & get a pizza, once per month. I called it "Bronsonfest". I used to have nearly all of Bronson's movies on VHS, but they're gone now. (& I no longer have a VCR) I do have quite a few of his movies on my PC. (mp4, avi, etc) My favorite Bronson movies are Hard Times, Death Wish, Death Hunt, The Evil That Men Do, Chato's Land, the White Buffalo, Red Sun, The Stone Killer....and more.
One thing about Charles Bronson in an acting role, rather starring or down in the totem pole, you would always remember him. He just always stood out. The camera loved him, his attitude and a certain look he had. Loved him!
How can anyone not admire, respect or love Charles Bronson? A poor, American immigrant's child who worked hard in claustraphophic mines, then graduated and went on to fought for his country and became War Hero, then became a TV star, who then became a Movie Star! Charles Bronson, thank you Sir!!!!!
As a teenager in the 70's I waited anxiously for every movie that Bronson was in. I was never let down. He had an everyman quality that I really liked.
A great actor and an even better human being. A true rags to riches story and life he had. RIP Charles. Thank you Jerry for this amazing story of his life.
This video was so informative. The narrators voice was soothing and relaxing. I've always loved Charles Bronson. Such a kind caring and loving man. And I might add, extremely handsome. RIP
I almost wish I hadn't seen this. The end was too harsh. He was a good, caring, man. And yet he was one of the best "bad ass" actors ever known! I'm going to remember Charles Bronson with that smile of his and that twinkle in his eyes. RIP - Charles Bronson
What I remember most about Charles Bronson is you couldn't hold him hostage. He had a knack of getting out of any situation. You couldn't trap him. He was impossible to hold down. I really like this man. The movies I've seen of him were great. There's many other movies I haven't seen that I would like to see. Charles Bronson had a magnetism about him that drew you to him. I would like to see more of him.
Wow its 2018 and i am juat finding out he passed. I am 34 years old but remember watching his movies with my grandpa who didnt speak english but couldnt get enough of his action movies. Great actor
Charles Bronson was a must see actor for me when I was a young man. I saw most of his movies. The one aspect that endeared him was his earthy real background, he was a real tough guy. There were no silver spoons for him. He did it by his own two hands and wits. Also he wasn't involved in sandal, drugs, and was a very much a family man. All Respect for him!
Thank you so much for this compelling biography of Charles Bronson. He was a man that lived a "complete" life. Never saw a role he played that I didn't like. "Breakheart Pass" is my favorite but I liked them all. If anyone deserves to "Rest in Peace" it is Charles Bronson. Again, thank you.
Charles Branson was a brilliant actor who always seemed to give 110% in any roles he played. We miss him , we hope and pray that he has met up with Jill in Heaven or wherever you believe in, I hope that he has. RIP Charles Bronson.
Yes, My favorite fight movie. He was great. I dont know anybody else who could of done a better got than him. Not just the fight scenes, but his personality fit the role perfectly.
I hope to God this movie is never forgotten. It is just so good. And Bronson was in his 50s if I recall then ... looking so good back when steroids wasn't even a thing ... if they cast it now he would look like The Hulk ... and the whole thing would fall apart. That was a movie about True Grit, not about easy and obvious, heaven-sent mastery like today's movies.
Thank you for a wonderful documentary. Once upon a time in the west changed my life. I used to watch it over and over at movie theares in Paris France when I was a teenager. He will always be in my memories. And from the same movie, his quote, "you brought 2 too many". My next most favorite movie of his was "Hard times" which I still watch scenes from on RUclips.God bless.
So many of these Hollywood people now days make's me sick and throw up. All of these old timers like Charles Bronson and Jill Irland etc... will be honored and remembered. And thank you for the many years of great entertainment and rest in peace Charles Bronson and Jill.
i love it when people who have nothing,can rise to world admiration, and give all that love to so many children ,he will always be my favourite actor R.I.P CHARLES
Him and my grandpa grew up together and were best friends. Him, my grandfather, and my grandmas brother lived in an apartment together for awhile. The were all from Johnstown or southfork pa or something like that. Yeah super broke....my grandpa grew up poor too. Went to ww2, was awarded 5 bronze stars and 2 silver stars for valor. Raided Normandy...Was one of the first Americans to see the consentration camps.
When ever you don`t speak with respect about others you look into your mirror . It is not important to be best , but it is important to do your best job with heart . Otherwise you will never have success . Both are very good . Both are best in their time of life and life quality . KR
@Gerhard Shlembacher: Fully agree with you, we must often look into the mirror before starting to bludgeon others and including those who brought something to society by their work in all areas of science, art, etc ..., they contributed to make life better for humanity and we can be proud of it.
I love listening to you tell the life stories of the actors my parents grew up with. They are gone now, but I know they would love your channel as much as I do! Thank you for all you do! May God bless you and your family 🙏
Wonderful and very touchy, heartfelt documentary. Thank you so much for shedding some light on this incredible actor's life story as well as his family.
Once again, Jerry, you did another great man justice. Charlie Bronson was one of my favorite actors of all time. It did my heart good to hear what a great man he was BEHIND the camera, too. Thank you for your continuing efforts in telling these people's stories. God bless.
As a youngster in early 1970s I never wanted to miss a Charles Bronson movie even though I didn't know and was starting to learn, the English language. It was amazing! I thank you for bringing back those memories 👏
I actually "met" Charles Bronson up in Vt in the late 70s. I had no idea he lived up there. I went to open the door of a shop...but the door opened before I could grab the knob...and there was Charles Bronson looking down at me! The shocked look on my face made him smile! He was wearing a red bandana around his head, and he drove a beat up red pickup. Just a regular guy....sort of. Jill was gorgeous, and Charlie always had a gruff but handsome look, imho. RIP Charlie. You did good!
This man possessed things rarely seen nor ever Will be seen again in Hollywood: integrity, compassion and loyalty. May he be at peace with Our Creator in Heaven along with All those he Loved.
Jay Dee, some think that *that* is deliberate. [They] do not want little boys to have *real men* to look up to anymore; even from afar. Hence, why they report on the effeminization of so many males. Please study GMO.
All my life I used to love watching his movies I still love watching his movies he was a hard-knock guy with the teddy bear attitude I sometimes when playing with my friends good guy bad guy tough guy versus bad guy I always took the Charles Bronson whether he was tough guy or bad guy he was always cool guy
And besides what was the Western without Charles Bronson it was just a picture of the west then without him but with him in it it was a guaranteed true blue Western and a good one at that those steel eyes with that kind of a smile that made you wonder is he going to shoot him or is he going to help him? You never knew
miss his acting, he was a unique star. this was very well done and so respectful, as usual, nice job...love your voice, you have an old-time comforting sound.
Wow! What a fantastic and respectful documentary. Jerry you seemed to have put a lot of love and time into this. Thank-you for posting and creating such an amazing video on an even more amazing actor. He was a great man, and he is and will remain a legend in film.
Thank you for this documentary! On year ago on 15 th december, my best friend passed away. We spent times watching Charles Bronson movies. He was a respectful great person, as well as my friend. It has just made me some tears in my eyes.
Another outstanding bio on perhaps one of the most private actors of all Charles Bronson and one of my personal Hero's as a young man. Rest in peace Charles Bronson you are forever missed.
Charles Bronson was a mans man, we all knew it back then he exuded manhood!! Love the fact they took in all the kids even their departed friends child that is Love!! It was apparent they Loved each other as well!
Charles Bronson was one of my all time favourite actors. Always the quiet, inscrutable loner, he rarely seemed to say more than was needed. Looked like he'd been hewn from granite. Always loved Hard Times, but my favourite was Once Upon A Time In The West...possibly the best Western ever made. Sad end for a proud man.
He was Bad Ass Clint EastWood in Comparison But perhaps not alike But Very good But not as good as Big screen movies East A Better by far Actor Director Bronson I Miss No Replacement Great Proud Man With my Respet
Your Bios are absolute perfection ... and so much appreciated.. Your pacing and voice and delicate use of background score are all magnificent. I cannot believe I have not thought to subscribe..... it is my pleasure to do so now.
funguy4utube *☺I agree 100%. A very moving video about Charles Bronson's life. A very convincing, calm voice of the narrator with a beautiful, relaxing background music. I've learnt all about Charles in such a short time. He was a great Actor. May he and his loved one's R.I.P. From Grazia58Aus ☺🌴🐨
funguy4utube, Got me too! I was a great bio done with such professionalism and class. No added bs or exploitation of problems, just told it like it was without sensationalism. I had to subscribe so I don't lose Jerry Skinner and I want to see more! Thank you Jerry.
Thank you, Jerry Skinner . . That was very emotional, well played, and professional as well . . Thank you, for your dedication, and detailed biography. :)
“Once upon a time in the west” is, I believe, the greatest western ever made and one of the best films ever. His portrayal of “Blue Eyes” is tremendous.
*Once upon a time, Charles Bronson* Each actor has his good and bad side as any human being but what to say Charles Bronson is a very great actor. In his super big family he was also a good father and a good husband. *R.I.P dear Mister Charles Dennis Buchinsky Bronson* *you gave us a lot of happiness through your movies*
Mr. Skinner. Your dedication to document the lives of these actors as they lived has been a joy to watch. Without your commitment to research and to share these videos we would never had known the struggles and victory of their lives. I sincerely hope someday someone will present a document on your life as well. You deserve to be remembered as a friend of Hollywood's greatest actors. God bless you real good my friend.
@@terencedenman702 I enjoy the commentary but ,yes, I’ve heard several inaccuracies in them. Minor points I guess, but still. In Death Wish for example, it was his daughter’s rape and his wife’s murder that he sought to avenge.
Saw him face to face skiing in Vale, CO. in 1977, January. I had just come off the lift, stopped, turned around to see my friend fall getting off the lift. I was giggling about it to myself when I noticed a man staring at me. I knew who he was immediately. I mumbled something, embarrassed, and skied off with my friend as she went by. As you would expect, he never said a word, never smiled, just stared that Bronson stare. Although he wasn’t that tall, he was very intimidating!
Always loved his work. Bronson once said he was offered the Dirty Harry series but turned it down. He thought Clint Eastwood did a better job than he did. Im sure he would have been great.
Tears in my eyes. Great man, great life story. Rest in peace with your beloved wife. And thank you for all your amazing movies and roles.
Tastefully done. I loved watching Charles Bronson movies as a kid. I still do. Rest in peace Mr. Bronson.
I LOVE Charles Bronson! But my heart goes out to his first wife; the fact she was good enough to support Charlie during his days as a struggling actor really says a lot about her character. Women like that are rare (especially these days!)
Then he later left Harriet for Jill (though he admitted that his first marriage was in trouble at the time even before he met Jill).
Yeah, me too. Not so good of Charlie.
Ok ok
Thank you
Charles Bronson was one in a million. He is greatly missed
I idolized him and Eastwood as a kid and still today. Their look and manner fit their on-screen characters to perfection. Amazingly skilled actors.
He was in alot of tv westerns early in his career alongside jack elam , jame collbern, and clint eastwood on rawhide, he paid his dues and made it. Good for him !

Never ever again the man was a master at his craft

the kids of today need to listen to this bloke's life then thank their lucky stars they're born in more modern times ! Wonderful man.
Truly a “man’s man “. I have enjoyed all of his movies for many years and will continue to do so. Thank you for a great documentary.

Death Hunt is terrific. Based on a true story ! My great uncle was with RCMP at the time "Mad trapper of rat river" ie Albert Johnson.

I always appreciate Charles Bronson as a military man who got his arm shot as a tail gunner on a B-29 bomber over Guam during WW2.
I know you made a lot of movies and was married to Jill Ireland.....but the fact that you served America when needed means more to me.
Thanks Charlie
I think the real story was he TRAINED as a tail gunner but drove a truck
@@nobodynothing00000Then the whole point being " There's nothing Charles Bronson couldn't do or pretend to do!" After all he's an actor!
I adored Charles Bronson at first sight in the movies. Over the years, he still maintained that mysterious manliness that is so rare. 💔
Lmfao not so many can carry such a presence

Expect for the unforgivable of cheating on his wife, I agree with you.
This country is full of them...lol. Who knows if his wife F'd someone else..
don't know about the infidelity stuff, didn't keep me from enjoying his movies or also thought Jill was quite talented also, and darn hot!
and I forgive him my wife cheated on me

Hard Times. One of Bronson's greatest performances w/ Jill Ireland AND the great James Coburn. Classic.
Damn straight!
Yes, My favorite fight movie. He was great. I dont know anybody else who could of done a better got than him. Not just the fight scenes, but his personality fit the role perfectly.
I hope to God this movie is never forgotten. It is just so good. And Bronson was in his 50s if I recall then ... looking so good back when steroids wasn't even a thing ... if they cast it now he would look like The Hulk ... and the whole thing would fall apart. That was a movie about True Grit, not about easy and obvious, heaven-sent mastery like today's movies.

Charles Bronson was a mans man, we all knew it back then he exuded manhood!! Love the fact they took in all the kids even their departed friends child that is Love!! It was apparent they Loved each other as well!

Agree, but also feel bad for his first wife.
I liked Charles Bronson a lot, he was a great actor.
I like Charles Bronson he was a real actor.
Very
trangenusa yes, he was,... missing those actors
Yes..... Great actor.......
Charles Bronson was one of my all time favourite actors. Always the quiet, inscrutable loner, he rarely seemed to say more than was needed. Looked like he'd been hewn from granite. Always loved Hard Times, but my favourite was Once Upon A Time In The West...possibly the best Western ever made. Sad end for a proud man.
His role in The Magnificent Seven was very touching.
Agree with everything you said...also, and I don't know why, he wasn't good looking, but he oozed sensuality.

funguy4utube, Got me too! I was a great bio done with such professionalism and class. No added bs or exploitation of problems, just told it like it was without sensationalism. I had to subscribe so I don't lose Jerry Skinner and I want to see more! Thank you Jerry.
The narrators voice is just so relaxing. I listen to every word because of it.
Thank you for the doco. He was a man's man. A real hero.
Thank you, Jerry Skinner . . That was very emotional, well played, and professional as well . . Thank you, for your dedication, and detailed biography. :)
Thank you, sir. Most interesting. There will be no one else like him ever again.
"Once Upon A Time In The West" my all time favorite Bronson Film.
Beautiful remembering. Heartbreaking also. thank you.
This was a really nice tribute to a great man, a loving husband and wife and, more importantly a loving family.
god is most important!!!
“Once upon a time in the west” is, I believe, the greatest western ever made and one of the best films ever. His portrayal of “Blue Eyes” is tremendous.
👍👍
What an amazing human being I didn't realize how devoted he was much respect Charles !!
Awesome telling Jerry, I really appreciate your narration and work. Bronson is really a favorite of mine.
Charles had a heart of gold..Rest in Peace..
Loved Charles Bronson , he is missed.😢
And yet he betrayed the woman whose self-sacrificing support gave him his career.
*Once upon a time, Charles Bronson*
Each actor has his good and bad side as any human being but what to say Charles Bronson is a very great actor. In his super big family
he was also a good father and a good husband.
*R.I.P dear Mister Charles Dennis Buchinsky Bronson*
*you gave us a lot of happiness through your movies*
What a legend. I watched his movies from way back in the 1960's. RIP to a legendary actor
Jerry, once again you brought it home. Bronson is one of my most favorite actors of all time. Thanks for your video.
I always loved his movies, never knew anything about his live but after watching this I like him even more.
Once upon a Time in the West.....excellent movie, I'll never forget that one!
"I hope you'll come back someday."
RIP to my AFFRICAN favourite actor well inspired good actor.
We regularly watch " once upon a time" one time per year. And each time I cry, when the family is killed at the beginning of the film. 😭😭
Charles Bronson is wonderful in this great masterpiece !!
Thank you this, Charles was one of my favorites actors . Again Thank you
Mr. Skinner. Your dedication to document the lives of these actors as they lived has been a joy to watch. Without your commitment to research and to share these videos we would never had known the struggles and victory of their lives. I sincerely hope someday someone will present a document on your life as well. You deserve to be remembered as a friend of Hollywood's greatest actors. God bless you real good my friend.
@@terencedenman702 I enjoy the commentary but ,yes, I’ve heard several inaccuracies in them. Minor points I guess, but still. In Death Wish for example, it was his daughter’s rape and his wife’s murder that he sought to avenge.
I remember Charles Bronson.. he was on of my favorite Actors... I used to look up to him R.I.P he was a great guy definitely will be missed
😢😭😢😢😢😢😢👏👏
Kimberly Simmons look up death kiss your gonna be stunned

Saw him face to face skiing in Vale, CO. in 1977, January. I had just come off the lift, stopped, turned around to see my friend fall getting off the lift. I was giggling about it to myself when I noticed a man staring at me. I knew who he was immediately. I mumbled something, embarrassed, and skied off with my friend as she went by. As you would expect, he never said a word, never smiled, just stared that Bronson stare. Although he wasn’t that tall, he was very intimidating!
Cudos. A great overview of a great actor. Your rememberance of his life and career was done with love. Many thanks.
I am 61 and I say, In USA, UK,and other countries and in France, we have lost a lot of great actors!.Good documentary about Mr Bronson. Teary-eyed
Always loved his work. Bronson once said he was offered the Dirty Harry series but turned it down. He thought Clint Eastwood did a better job than he did. Im sure he would have been great.
Michael Cranstoun Bronson is Death Wish, Eastwood is Dirty Harry, period!
Dirty Harry was actually offered to Steve McQueen first.
So were First Blood AND The Bodyguard.
Rocky Elorde Now I could see McQueen instead of Costner in The Bodyguard. Would have been a better movie.
Clint is one of the best actors / directors of his generation as well . Both are incredible
Actually Dirty Harry was offered to Frank Sinatra but he hurt his hand and the role went to Eastwood.
