She was on tv and in demand when that psycho €unt murdered her. He has since had an easy life, working as a chef in a top restaurant. Beyond infuriating.
He sounds very much like his father. His dad was a great writer. I’ve read most of his novels, many about rich people who get away with murder. He wrote a thinly veiled book about the Martha Moxley murder, and about the Kennedy relation that murdered her. His Vanity Fair articles were fantastic. I read them all. He was sitting in almost the front row of the OJ trial and the camera caught his shocked expression. His jaw literally hit the ground. I’d love to read this book.
Agreed. It is eerie to a degree, hearing his dad's voice come out of his mouth, seeing the dark-rimmed glasses and the shape of his face. I wish him continued success.
@Shazzadut1, I hope you did get to read this! As a longtime fan of the family, I recall reading Dominick Dunne’s very first article, in my bachelorette apartment, asking myself, “Who IS this guy?!?”
Erik and Lyle Menendez series really somehow brought a light to their family's story in some way from Dominick's involvement in the Menendez case to how Dominique was killed.
I was a Private Duty Nurse to Griffin Dunnes mother, Ellen Dunne, (Lenny) at her sprawling home in Nogales, AZ. She was a sweet but very sophisticated lady even with MS that kept her bedbound. I met Griffin, his then wife Carey Lowel, Dominique & Alex Dunne. I would go to their home from mine in Tucson, AZ. & spend the week with staff relief on weekends. What happened to Dominique at the hands of John Patrick Maura was brutal & that trial was HORRIFIC. That murderous slob actually called Ellen twice that I remember to terrorize her! Last I knew he was a chef at Smith Ranch Homes in CA. His hands that choked her to death now feed people!!! It gags me to consider that!!!!
oh my god he did that to her poor Momma the nerve of that Psychopath and the judge that let his defense team put that young girl on trial for her own death as if she provoked him its ok though he can change his name all he wants he can run but he can never hide from God his day will come
I love Griffin Dunne! He was great in the 80's film "Who's That Girl" (w/ Madonna). I absolutely adored his Father, Dominicke Dunne. As well as being a crime reporter he was also a fantastic fiction novelist (I have several of his books) & had his own TV series "Power, Privilege & Justice". I can't wait to get Griffins' book about his sister. Dominique had the potential to become a great actress.
People commenting how bad of an interviewer Kelly is for not asking questions, I disagree she’s letting Griffin tell his story. Too many interviewers butt in when there guest are trying to talk & it ruins the interview !
I'm very impressed by her- so often these talk show hosts dominate the conversation and make it about them- this Kelly woman is the epitome of what I host SHOULD be.
@@marynobles4363 The mad thing about After Hours is that Scorsese only did it because the funding for Last Temptation Of Christ was withdrawn at the last minute round about 1983-1984. He got offered After Hours while he tried to raise the money again for Last Temptation which he eventually did at the end of the decade. Totally agree with the comment on Last Hours. The date from hell on the night from the same place.
@@paulmoneill Thanks, that’s really interesting. Yea, poor guy was minding his own business, having a quiet evening reading, and seemed to drop into an alternate universe. 🎃
@@marynobles4363 I wish Marty would do another out and out comedy but his future slate seems to be more drama oriented with apparently another Jesus movie in there just to keep up with Mel Gibson who's doing a sequel to The Passion called The Resurrection (Whoops. Spoiler.) Him and Leo have talked about a Teddy Roosevelt biopic at some point so maybe that'll get both of them their second oscars.
I’m halfway through the book and it is riveting. Haven’t gotten to Dominique’s tragic death yet (rest her soul), but wow, what an amazing childhood! I only wish he had included pictures. I’m an huge Joan Didion fan, so I love how often he mentions her, and his adoration for her. Overall, it’s a very good book.
Griffin played someone who lost a sibling on "This Is Us", which made me wonder how much of himself did he inject into the character of Nicky (who also battled addiction)?
But that was sadly her only claim to fame as her career was just really beginning to take off. She had range and would've been a really successful actress before her life was tragically cut short.
@@variousJnames She was great in her other roles too, and that was just the beginning! Did you know that Steven Spielberg had her in mind for then future projects and that she was in the same acting class as George Clooney and was the first person in their group to get a movie role?! Besides, she was also the nicest person and an absolute angel who saved many lives, rescued and took care of countless stray animals! You would’ve just LOVED to be around her.
American Werewolf in London is one of my all time favorites. I just watched Poltergeist a couple of nights ago. I’ve not seen it in years. Still great.
Yeah. I read all about Dominique. She was only 22 when she died, her whole life and career ahead of her…..and her costar, Heather O’Rourke, would die just 6 years later, from a bowel complication. Such a sad sad story. RIP to them both.
Griffin Dunne will live forever - in England - in After Hours 🕑 and that damned horrific werewolf movie. I fucking love Griffin Dunne 🌕 Griffin's acting is fucking beautiful. A truly beautiful and magical actor ♥
Great book- I highly recommend it. I absolutely loved his dad💕 Reading about his family in the book reminded me of my own, though we never experienced as horrific trauma as they, laughing through tragedy and grief.
Fantastic book. Currently listening to it just on a whim because I was boreed at work and music wasn't doing it for me, and it's absolutely worth a read/listen whether you know or care about the Dunne family. It is entertaining, funny, sad, hits all the notes. 100% recommend.
It's worth it just for the Carrie Fisher stories and sections (Griffin's good friend and roommate when she booked Star Wars) so if that doesn't get some of you, nothing will.
He comes from a very affluent family, well connected with famous writers, politicians and wealth. Hes a such a great speaker, just like his father was.
Yeah, and then her dad absolutely ruined the career of the judge that allowed the injustice. He went from a high up judge to a column writer for a small newspaper company.
You should see the jail sentences murderers get in Australia. It's obscene. I always say there needs to be one or two zeros on the end of whatever the sentence is.
I went to the Oscars in 1996 when Whoopi Goldberg hosted. I was working at the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences where I parked cars. They let me go to the Academy Awards. I took my sister. During the show, I went downstairs at the Dorothy Chandler Pavilion to the bar and restrooms. Hanging out down there was Tom Cruise with Nicole Kidman, Quentin Tarantino talking with Tim Roth, Jeff Goldblum (who ironically was my acting teacher at Playhouse West) and Griffin Dunne. After talking with Jeff, I went up and spent 5 minutes talking with Griffin, who was standing alone. I told him how I loved AFTER HOURS and we had a good time conversing. A really great guy. I told him i was an actor and that hopefully we would work together some day. He answered that it was such a small town that it was bound to happen. Fast forward to 2024. We haven't worked together yet. What i do have is a wonderful memory of having the opportunity to talk with him a bit and realize he's as wonderful in person as I had hoped. I'll have to get his book. The audiobook from Audible as well because Griffin actually reads the book himself. I know that'll be awesome and emotional.
@@curinbenbow7944she’s kind of overwhelmed with him there. I’m a lot older than she is and I’d probably feel the same ways OTOH I don’t star in a talk show.
Such a tragedy. Dominque Dunne was only 22 years old. And the POS who killed her was only convicted of manslaughter and served only 3.5 years in prison.
@@shannonmoynihan8957 It’s in Griffen Dunne’s book. They ended up with a horribly unfair judge and a slimeball defense attorney. They essentially blamed the victim for her own death.
Dominique was making a name for herself when her life was taken. Dominique Dunn, her father, chronicled the trial in Vaniry Fair. It was a big deal back then. I'm glad Griffen is keeping the story alive.
My mother lost her own sister a year before griffin. She was shot by her police officer boyfriend and he got nothing , letting him go free! Hedidnt go to jail!🤬
I knew the father‘s been gone for quite some time. But, I legitimately clicked because I thought Dominick Dunne was doing this interview! Great interview very interesting!
How in the world did Dominique's murderer get only 3 1/2 years? Did he claim insanity? What a travesty of justice. That poor young girl having her life stolen from her. Horrible.
He has an ICONIC family. Dad was an AMAZING TV executive and crime writer. His aunt is legendary writer Joan Didion. They were all best friends with the Hollywood elite. And his sister died notoriously. Want to buy the book!!!
You can tell he struggles to talk about her after 40 years, I feel the same I lost my sister as well, losing a siblings isn't easy especially that manner
Griffin Dunne was fabulous. Kelly Clarkson did not read his book. She missed a huge opportunity. What's worse is - I doubt she thinks she missed anything.
I remember when his sister was murdered. Years later I remember his father's TV show and I never put it together that Dominque was their family until just now. Wow.
Good. Just because the family was laughing at lunch doesn’t mean they didn’t care about Dominique or didn’t grieve. I think most families who lose a loved one go through that laughing/crying phase, especially when the family comes together. I know I did when my mother died. My sister and I laughed and cried as we recalled funny family times and stories. And at her wake we did the same with her friends, old neighbours, and extended family.
I Loved his Dad' on TV.Im old enough to remember his sister on Dallas as one of Lucy Ewing's friend!!!❤I only know him from Whose thats Girl w Madonna!!!
I knew of both of them (Dominique and Griffin) but never made the connection they were siblings 😮 And their dad too Dang I feel foolish for not knowing they were related.
Clarkson is a terrible interviewer and yet has her own talk show? She missed so many opportunities to have an interesting dialogue with this wonderful man and all she could say was , “yeah”. I really recommend, ‘Dominick Dunne’s, Power, Privilege and Justice’ tv show and books. The Dunne family have such charisma and talent. It was such a tragedy to loose Dominique Dunne at such a young age. She did an episode of ‘Hill street Blues’ where you can see bruises on her neck and face. That’s not make up, they are real bruises that her boyfriend gave her a few days before taping the episode. It’s true when they say, it’s the most dangerous time for a victim, is when they are leaving their abuser.
This man is saying all of these fascinating things and the only word this talk show host can muster is "Yeah." Clarkson.. Hudson both terrible terrible interviewers.
Would you rather she interrupt the incredible storytelling. Which she is already always criticised for. It is clear she is showing she’s listening and her interest in the story and letting him promote his book. Which is the entire purpose of the interview
@@justinm.1 I've watched lots and lots of clips. I've been watching the show since it began. I like Kelly. She's an incredible singer. I could listen to her all day. She's been given a gift. But she's a terrible interviewer. The format of the show is a "talk" show. Her follow up to most guests "I love that."
@@Mmm-km8yv No, of course I don't want her to interrupt. Don't be silly. But if her job title is 'talk show host' I do want her to be able to hold an intelligent and interesting conversation. I do want her to be able to ask curious follow up questions and engage the guest.. enrich the conversation. She's not capable.
It wasn't just a tragic death she was brutally murdered and the stupid judge and jury let him get by with either involuntary or voluntary manslaughter I don't remember which he was sentenced to 4 years he served 2 he strangled this girl with his bare hands and served 2 freaking years in prison got released and got a Job as head chef at a popular Restaurant he had a history of abuse one of his ex's testified he almost killed her but the judge later told the jury to disregard it he not onlt strangled her to the point her eyes were bulging out he carried her by the throat to the neighbors yard the attacked happened on Halloween Eve of 1982 she was on life support till sometime in early September. Her family was outraged but they were not gonna just sit and take his release laying down they made signs that said the hands that prepared your meals tonight strangled our daughter sister friend whatever she meant to that person and they protested outside the Resturant till he was fired because the place was losing business well he moved to a different part of California and now goes by John Maura but God knows who you are and he knows what you did John Thomas Sweeney !!!!!
His lawyers turned it around on the victim and basically put her on trial said she led him on lead him to believe they could still get back together that was BS everyone who know both him and her knew he was abusive to her horribly abusive and when she finally left and he realized this time he couldn't cry and get her to pity him and come back he was enraged and killed her
I was wrong that guy is right I had the wrong guy this guy is in that movie who’s that girl with Madonna and a couple others but he wasn’t an exorcist either one he was right that was I can’t member his name Jackie Gleeson’s daughters husband forget his name now yeah I’m 100% wrong
Did kind of look like him that’s why I was confused. It kind of does look like him, but he’s dead. I think the guy who who was an exorcist I mean he’s gone he’s I think he died a while ago.
Griffin Dunne mentioned his Father covered among other high-profile cases, the Menendez Brothers' Murders and that members of the Dunne clan advocate for victims(rights)... would they be 'advocating' in this particular instance for Jose and Kitty Menendez shot to death by their son's Lyle and Erik or would they see the brothers as the victims lashing out in a form of self-defense after years of allegedly suffering abuse at the hands of their father aided by their mother's complicit silence? We're admonished to not _'blame the victim'_ , right? Wouldn't it be wonderful if life was always so simple ?
His sister, Dominique Dunne, played the oldest daughter in the movie Poltergeist. It’s horrible how her future was taken from her; rest her soul.
No shyt Sherlock
@@CaramelPiece2023 BAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA
What's even worse is the killer only got 3 fucking years.

I noticed how much he sounds like his father right away. I really didn’t notice it in This is Us.
Agreed. It is eerie to a degree, hearing his dad's voice come out of his mouth, seeing the dark-rimmed glasses and the shape of his face. I wish him continued success.

Dominique was very unique, i remember her in alot of tv shows and movies growing up.
Dominique wasn’t in a lot of tv shows and movies. She didn’t get the chance.
I think I'm gonna be the only person in this comment section who remembers Griffin Dunne as Madonna's love interest in "Who's That Girl".
You're not!... He was cute in Who's That Girl
Yes!!!! I totally forgot about that!
I remember
Nope I remember 😅
He was great as was his sister Dominique as an actress. His Father a great writer and a classy Mom too. Wish they still had his sister there.
Griffin also directed one of my favorite Halloween/witch movies...PRACTICAL MAGIC. I had the pleasure of meeting him last year and he was awesome.
I thought that was him when I saw his name as director in the opening credits.
Apparently they're about to make a sequel with Nicole and Sandra in the same roles.

He sounds exactly like his Dad.
Dominic Dunn was an amazing man!!
This man is saying all of these fascinating things and the only word this talk show host can muster is "Yeah." Clarkson.. Hudson both terrible terrible interviewers.
Would you rather she interrupt the incredible storytelling. Which she is already always criticised for. It is clear she is showing she’s listening and her interest in the story and letting him promote his book. Which is the entire purpose of the interview
You're welcome to watch other clips of Kelly talking more if you can't understand the fact that she's giving her full attention to the tragic story. 🙃
Sometimes it's best to just listen......
@@justinm.1 I've watched lots and lots of clips. I've been watching the show since it began. I like Kelly. She's an incredible singer. I could listen to her all day. She's been given a gift. But she's a terrible interviewer. The format of the show is a "talk" show. Her follow up to most guests "I love that."
@@Mmm-km8yv No, of course I don't want her to interrupt. Don't be silly. But if her job title is 'talk show host' I do want her to be able to hold an intelligent and interesting conversation. I do want her to be able to ask curious follow up questions and engage the guest.. enrich the conversation. She's not capable.
Gosh, he's really morphed into his father.
It wasn't just a tragic death she was brutally murdered and the stupid judge and jury let him get by with either involuntary or voluntary manslaughter I don't remember which he was sentenced to 4 years he served 2 he strangled this girl with his bare hands and served 2 freaking years in prison got released and got a Job as head chef at a popular Restaurant he had a history of abuse one of his ex's testified he almost killed her but the judge later told the jury to disregard it he not onlt strangled her to the point her eyes were bulging out he carried her by the throat to the neighbors yard the attacked happened on Halloween Eve of 1982 she was on life support till sometime in early September. Her family was outraged but they were not gonna just sit and take his release laying down they made signs that said the hands that prepared your meals tonight strangled our daughter sister friend whatever she meant to that person and they protested outside the Resturant till he was fired because the place was losing business well he moved to a different part of California and now goes by John Maura but God knows who you are and he knows what you did John Thomas Sweeney !!!!!
His lawyers turned it around on the victim and basically put her on trial said she led him on lead him to believe they could still get back together that was BS everyone who know both him and her knew he was abusive to her horribly abusive and when she finally left and he realized this time he couldn't cry and get her to pity him and come back he was enraged and killed her
Who's That Girl!
He looks just like his dad.
He was so amazing in exorcist 1 and 3
That wasn't him.
@@Buckaroo_Baldwin you’re right actually you’re right I had the wrong guy. It was the dude who was married to Jackie Gleason’s daughter you’re right.
I was wrong that guy is right I had the wrong guy this guy is in that movie who’s that girl with Madonna and a couple others but he wasn’t an exorcist either one he was right that was I can’t member his name Jackie Gleeson’s daughters husband forget his name now yeah I’m 100% wrong
Did kind of look like him that’s why I was confused. It kind of does look like him, but he’s dead. I think the guy who who was an exorcist I mean he’s gone he’s I think he died a while ago.
oh slayyyy
Griffin Dunne mentioned his Father covered among other high-profile cases, the Menendez Brothers' Murders and that members of the Dunne clan advocate for victims(rights)... would they be 'advocating' in this particular instance for Jose and Kitty Menendez shot to death by their son's Lyle and Erik or would they see the brothers as the victims lashing out in a form of self-defense after years of allegedly suffering abuse at the hands of their father aided by their mother's complicit silence? We're admonished to not _'blame the victim'_ , right? Wouldn't it be wonderful if life was always so simple ?
He plays a great spree killer on Law & Order Criminal Intent. Watch it
He looks just like his father.
