A most beautiful couple indeed. I love Carol Lombard in that movie with Fredric March. I can't remember the name of it at the moment. That movie is a riot. Eugene Palett is in it too. She pretends she's sick, so everyone in the city feel sorry for her. She even gets a key to the city. Anyways, it's definitely a great one. And then Clark Gable in Night Nurse. He's such a bad guy in that one. Another one of my favorites.
The way they looked at each other made my heart skip a beat. So much love between them. It’s beautiful to see but sad at the same time. Carole Lombard was the love of Gable’s life and he was never the same after she died.
@@ericstenzel6835 Did you ever read the book Fireball by Robert Matzen? If not, I highly recommend it. The book is about the plane crash and it’s aftermath.
She died 80 years ago today, but has never been forgotten. She was so pretty and so very funny. You don't see funny ladies like her anymore. She was a pleasure to watch on screen. She still is. she and Clark were such a handsome pair. God Bless Them Both.
That would take quite a lady. Years ago I read a biography on Clark Gable. I don't remember who wrote it unfortunately. In it the author said eventually Kay, agreed to talk to him. She loved him very much. But she told the author she " couldn't compete with Carole's ghost". The marriage lasted until his passing. Very special what she did.
Her love was unforgettable ❤️ to him he held on to the chance of her surviving sobbed when bad news came he was trying to get to her rough terrian they recommended to wait at Pioneer Saloon,Goodsprings Memorial inside to both of them heartbreaking story.
Clark Gable "The King" of Hollywood! They just don't have the actors/actresses like they used to back in the "good old days!" Loved Clark Gable especially in "Gone With The Wind!" What a man.....tall, dark, & handsome!!!!
It's so sad that they only had such a short time together. They were so lovely as a couple and looked so good together. They say when she died he was so devastated. They were soulmates.
I wish we could have seen them nearing the close of their lives sitting in the rockers on their front porch! That immense love and devotion would have aged like fine wine! 🌸🌸🌸
Press reports state he was not on the mountain. Even though he was famous, he certainly was not trained/qualified to be on a recovery/rescue crew. But he was waiting at the bottom of the mountain to escort her body home. The hike itself is arduous, long, and to say a rough hike is an understatement. With all the press around at that time and adding the treacherousness of the climb, Gable would have been ill-advised to make that journey. And he didn’t want the recovery of his wife’s body to be a circus. So reports of him being on the mountain are false. That is fact.
@@JustMe-dd8lj Thank you for playing the theme from "Fried Green Tomatoes" with your video. It has the right sad, nostalgic tone. However, this lovely tribute has several inaccuracies. Lombard was tiny, about 5'1". Big personality, small woman. Clark Gable died in November, 1960, not 1961. Eddie Mannix made the climb up Mt. Potosi to identify Carole's body. Lombard loved cafe society and parties. Gable was the one who didn't. In his films after her death, we never again see that famous Gable Tomcat Grin or a twinkle in his eye.
A BROKEN MAN IN A SPLIT SECOND, THE TWINKLING OF AN EYE HER SPIRIT SLAMMED INTO THAT WALL OF GRANITE AND WITH HER HE TOO DIED THEY LIVED AMONG THE STARS DANCED TO THE MUSIC OF THE AGES DENYING THE FRAILTY OF HUMAN FLESH UNTIL THAT DARK NEVADA NIGHT SHE WAS TAKEN FOREVER LEAVING BEHIND A BROKEN MAN HIS HEART NEVER WISHED TO DECEIVE HER NEVER WISHED TO BRING A TEAR TO HER EYE YET HE STRAYED ONCE TO OFTEN FORCING HER TO BOARD HER FATE BOUND FOR AN ETERNAL DESERT SKY AND IN THE END HE WAS LEFT WITH THE MEMORY OF A LOVE SO TRUE CAUGHT FOREVER ONLY ON THE SILVER SCREEN AS HE TOO WAS TRAPPED IN FOREVER, A BROKEN MAN A KING LOST WITHOUT HIS QUEEN HE WANDERS NOW, ONLY IN THE WASTELAND OF MEMORY FOR CAROLE AND CLARK
Carole Lombard was my cousin. I am very proud of her and she died serving our country trying to help preserve our freedom. Though I never met or knew her, she was part of the "Greatest Generation"
Very nice lady. Seemed to be so happy together maybe the gods were jealous. I prefer not to believe the rumour that she was rushing back because she heard some actress was hitting on clark.
Thank you indeed! Exquisitely moving to those of us equally blessed to have loved and lost our soul mate...C. S. Lewis, and many others... Was the grief worth the memories? It is to me❤
Wow what a stunning couple they were! How sad it ended so soon for both of them. They say better to have loved and lost ,than never to have loved at all! I say you can’t miss something you never had!
Rosalind Russell s husband was buried next to her even though he married again after her death. Why not, might as well be next to someone you cared aboit.
Back then the studio's had teachers who taught the future actors and actresses to talk, sing dance and act. They don't have the control the studio's had back then. These days actresses don't even know to cover their underwear. Let alone act, dance or anything else.
Impact with mountain top and pilot error was unfortunately all to common an occurrence. Many types of air craft still mark the sites of tragedies past. Mute reminders to never take flying for granted. Carole's DC 3 lies on a mountaintop near Los Vegas Nevada. I have flown on DC 3 and it was a beautiful air transport.
Brandon Burrell LOL.... thank you for answering my question. Came to the comments to find out what that blurb about the bodies was about. Found your comment easily!!
Some unknown person watches this and compares this to his own relationship with his own womam in the past when they were in love and says to himself, "My relationship with my woman was great too".... indeed it was. Life is just a moment, a personal moment.
This lovely tribute video might easily have been ruined by the wrong choice of music, but you made the perfect choice here. Thank you for uploading. :)
He had a daughter with Loretta Young, Judy Lewis. Judy never even knew he was her dad till she was a teen.. And saw him once, then he disappeared from her life forever.. His love for Carole was more real than most people ever see in a lifetime. I just wish he would have given some of that love to his daughter.
Of course he did , he loved her and when some you love passes out of your life you cry ! Maybe some don’t at the time but you can bet they do when they are alone !
The music was perfect. Thank you! I wondered if anyone else identified it from the FGT soundtrack. Most of the time, I cannot stand the music people put with their videos, but this is perfect. One caveat: Lombard was about 5'1" tall. She was tiny. I grew up in the San Fernando Valley and my early childhood was spent at the tail end of the horse ranching, rural era, just before the freeways and tract housing. My friend Lindsay lived one block from the Gable ranch on Petit Street. For more on Gable and Lombard's life in the Valley, read Victoria Wilson's biography of Barbara Stanwyck, "Steel True." Stanwyck built a house on Devonshire Blvd. about 6 miles from the Gable ranch in Encino. Stanwyck's house still stands, almost just as she built it.
Yes @K. Alice Pritchett, very well done too. I also thought Legrand’s musical score for the movie Gable and Lombard was hauntingly beautiful and fitting for the couple. 💕💕
As you assert, Jessica, this was a rarity in the early Hollywood era; the sadness lies in the epithet, 'No good thing lasts forever...' & that is the cruel irony that beset this enigmatic, young couple...as a movie buff, I'm a huge fan of their film work. There aren't many actor couples that go the distance, but Spencer Tracy & Katherine Hepburn (whilst not married) remained extant for over twenty-five years, & notwithstanding Paul Newman & Joanne Woodward; clearly, they had the 'magic' formula.... beautifully presented - thank you !
One of the greatest and most tragic love story. They adored each other. Those close to Clark say he was ne never quite the same after he lost Carole. He continued to live his life, serve his country, and married 2 more times. Luella Parsons said there was a forever private shrine in his heart that belonged to Carole. So sad he didn't live long enough to experience the birth of his son, with 5th wife Kay Spreckles Gable. He was all man, and a gentleman. There will never be another.
She was such a woman of grace she looks so happy with Clark I thank god they had there time together. Before she die Clark look so much in 💘 with her bless her soul
@Dr. killpatient Your comment, about Carole Lombard, was disrespectful, and rude. Do you like bashing people who have died tragically? That was a rhetorical question. * They're = They are
No one is EVER prepared for their loved one to die, even if they are sick, and/or old. Your comment is insensitive, and rude. If, and when you lose a loved one, maybe you will understand, unless, you simply have no empathy. . .
Well sixish years of that kind of love connection , that can of love dream, is a special gift. Wonderful to have, once in a lifetime, forever in. A heart
Most people don't know the reason Carole rushed back home was because Gable was making a movie with a new upcoming actress and was well known for his infidelity. This is why he felt so much remorse for her death! Her brothers never forgave him for the event that killed both their Mother and Sister. Gable also reaped a great deal of money from her death and was well known for being cheap! When his English wife after Carol moved in and started to redecorate the home he was said to be mad that she was spending too much of HIS money!
Susan Pearce, spot on,l don't know why she married gable may be she thought she could tame him,if carol had got back to the film set, she would have gone for turner .
And he raped Loretta Young. That's how he got the daughter he ignored. Finally came out after Judy Lewis(the daughter) died. Her mother didn't want her to know it was a rape
Evidently the real story of their marriage isn't quite so rosy, but the true one is even more tragic - especially for him. As much as Gable loved Carole - and he did - Clark, like a lot of good-looking men who see themselves as God's gift to women, never saw the need to be faithful. His latest romp was with his leading lady Lana Turner. Carole was off on a war bond-raising drive and begged him to stop and think about their marriage. When he refused, she got on a plane with her mother to fly home and save her marriage. But the plane crashed, killing everybody on board. Clark then evidently realized what he'd done, and what he'd lost. He blamed himself, as he should have, and spent the rest of his life having to live with it. That's a hell of a lesson for a pretty boy, but he grew up in a hurry. Carole's family also blamed him, since they knew the story, and never spoke to Gable again.
@@sharonmullins1957 My thoughts exactly. I don't believe in Deathless Romantic Love, especially in Hollywood, a breeding ground for narcissists. I can't say I would have kicked his ass out, were it me, because I wouldn't have married the SOB to begin with. But Carole should have. She was a fabulous woman, way ahead of her time, and deserved a grown-up husband who loved her enough to keep it in his pants. Look what it took for him to wake up.
For anyone interested. I've been reading about this from various sources for years, but this is a good one. nypost.com/2014/01/19/why-did-carole-lombard-die/
@Patricia Walton Homewrecking is never excusable. And any guy who cheats on his wife, especially a wife like Carole, isn't worth the trouble, no matter how charming or good looking he is. If he cheats WITH you, he'll one day cheat ON you. And the sooner we all start holding guys like Clark - and women like Lana - accountable and stop glamorizing who they are and what they do as Inevitable and Irresistible and romantic, the better off everyone will be. Don't excuse either one of them. Clark paid a huge price, and in later years, so did Lana. She ended up regretting her choices, and became a serious and devout Catholic.
Divine simply , thanks for telling the truth about gable, carol Lombard Mother also died in the plane crash, carol Lombard was to come back by train great gal with a terrific personality, but gable was always a womenizer.
Carol Lombard was gorgeous , but she was smart . Her death was quite a shock to everyone. And it was shrouded in mystery about what caused the airplane accident . They would let anyone go near it.
My goodness they were beautiful together .The new Hollywood can't hold a candle to the stars of yesterday.
A most beautiful couple indeed.
I love Carol Lombard in that movie with Fredric March. I can't remember the name of it at the moment. That movie is a riot. Eugene Palett is in it too. She pretends she's sick, so everyone in the city feel sorry for her. She even gets a key to the city. Anyways, it's definitely a great one.
And then Clark Gable in Night Nurse. He's such a bad guy in that one. Another one of my favorites.
Agree

No, he never recovered. Fell into a downward spiral of drinking.
@@ericstenzel6835 Did you ever read the book Fireball by Robert Matzen? If not, I highly recommend it. The book is about the plane crash and it’s aftermath.
Carole Lombard is someone I would love to have known. She was funny, irreverent and a truly loyal friend to those around her.
She died 80 years ago today, but has never been forgotten. She was so pretty and so very funny. You don't see funny ladies like her anymore. She was a pleasure to watch on screen. She still is. she and Clark were such a handsome pair. God Bless Them Both.
What's amazing about this is that they never loved each other for their beauty. They loved each other for who they were.
Amen
They were pretty special, and he seemed to age faster after she died. His last wife will always have my respect for burying him with her. What a lady!
That would take quite a lady. Years ago I read a biography on Clark Gable. I don't remember who wrote it unfortunately. In it the author said eventually Kay, agreed to talk to him.

for his last wife to bury him next to his first wife is amazing. She really loved him to do that. Wow!
Zerima Zerimar , love is sacrifice and consideration for the other person. It's being selfless, its patient and kind, at least it should be.
@@virginagobetz4756 no, his 3rd
@@lisag18 My mistake you're so right!
@Dr. killpatient Again my mistake I'm sorry.
She was buried by her late fiancé. So they are all together. She told a reporter that her fiancé that was killed was the love of her life.
Such beautiful love. Rare in this dark world. Rest in peace to them both.
I agree
After the plane crash, Gable went to get Carole’s body on the mountain. He was devastated by her loss.
Press reports state he was not on the mountain. Even though he was famous, he certainly was not trained/qualified to be on a recovery/rescue crew. But he was waiting at the bottom of the mountain to escort her body home. The hike itself is arduous, long, and to say a rough hike is an understatement.

A BROKEN MAN
IN A SPLIT SECOND, THE TWINKLING OF AN EYE
HER SPIRIT SLAMMED INTO THAT WALL OF GRANITE
AND WITH HER HE TOO DIED
THEY LIVED AMONG THE STARS
DANCED TO THE MUSIC OF THE AGES
DENYING THE FRAILTY OF HUMAN FLESH
UNTIL THAT DARK NEVADA NIGHT SHE WAS TAKEN FOREVER
LEAVING BEHIND A BROKEN MAN
HIS HEART NEVER WISHED TO DECEIVE HER
NEVER WISHED TO BRING A TEAR TO HER EYE
YET HE STRAYED ONCE TO OFTEN FORCING HER TO BOARD HER FATE
BOUND FOR AN ETERNAL DESERT SKY
AND IN THE END HE WAS LEFT WITH THE MEMORY OF A LOVE SO TRUE
CAUGHT FOREVER ONLY ON THE SILVER SCREEN
AS HE TOO WAS TRAPPED IN FOREVER, A BROKEN MAN
A KING LOST WITHOUT HIS QUEEN
HE WANDERS NOW, ONLY IN THE WASTELAND OF MEMORY
FOR CAROLE AND CLARK

You really did a beautiful job with this tribute. Thank you for posting.

Thank you indeed! Exquisitely moving to those of us equally blessed to have loved and lost our soul mate...C. S. Lewis, and many others...
Was the grief worth the memories? It is to me❤
Thats true love...but it can break a man if the his love dies in such a tragic way. Gable was never quite the same after...never quite the same 😔

Wow what a stunning couple they were! How sad it ended so soon for both of them. They say better to have loved and lost ,than never to have loved at all! I say you can’t miss something you never had!
It really takes a nobel women to let a husbond be buried next to a former wife, that's is also love, I think Carole was the love of his life.......
Rosalind Russell s husband was buried next to her even though he married again after her death. Why not, might as well be next to someone you cared aboit.
But, he cheated on her with Lana Turner & others.
@nadyarossi5102 and he raped Loretta young and gave her daughter he ignored. The rape came out after the daughter died a few years ago😢
This is the best tribute to Clark and Carole I have ever seen the truly did love each other
Beautiful! Simply beautiful! Godspeed to you all. Carole, Clark, Kay, & Russ
No words, just...beautiful.
The yellow text is too hard to read plus goes by too fast
Gypsy Treasures pause it then read it ...
You can pause it or slow down the video.
Very irritating.
Back then the studio's had teachers who taught the future actors and actresses to talk, sing dance and act. They don't have the control the studio's had back then. These days actresses don't even know to cover their underwear. Let alone act, dance or anything else.
I. Agree
I really enjoyed watching this, the music is wonderful! Great, great tribute! Thank you for posting!
Such a beautiful couple. They really were made for each other. I hope they are together again to continue their love
Don’t even like to think about this; Joan Crawford said he never recovered; “he never came back to us”.
I understand his feelings , my son passed in 98 , I have never been the same and never will , I still can't feel my heart beat. 🇺🇸✌️
😪
I worked on his former home in Gable Estates. It still felt like it was in a remote area until you looked out the front door.
Thank you for posting such a wonderful remembrance 💕
Also loved the music! That's from the soundtrack to "Fried Green Tomatoes". It's beautiful and very sad music. Guess I need to watch the movie again.
I never did.

🍃😇 RlP Clark & Carol two of the back in the day lcon actors 💫
Great work. What a warm, wonderful tribute , to an enduring love.
No mention of the plane crash, just the aftermath. A little confusing, If a person doesn't know the history. Sweet video still.

One caveat: Lombard was about 5'1" tall. She was tiny.

Yes @K. Alice Pritchett, very well done too. I also thought Legrand’s musical score for the movie Gable and Lombard was hauntingly beautiful and fitting for the couple. 💕💕
"Gable hated the hollywood partying that went with fame"?? Untrue. His wife hated his partying ways and made them move to a farm.
Could hardly read this ! Wrong color on the printed words!
Both beautiful and heart breaking.

He was never the same after she died. Part of him died with her.
Beautiful tribute. Loved the music.
After Lonbard's death, Joan Crawford stated that 'Clark never came back to us'. WOW 😢
Thank you....Well done...
That kind of love brings out the best in people
Gable died in 1960 (not 1961 as stated in this clip.)
The yellow font made this extremely hard to read
Wonderful thank you
so touching this video was...i had tears in my eyes
Why r women just so naturally they beautiful in the 20/30s
There was just as much artifice in Hollywood glamour then as now - bleached hair, foundation mascara, clever lighting etc.
No stress no junk food

Carol Lombard was one of the few actresses who did not sleep around, pity womannizer gable did not do the same,he had to have all his leading ladies .
I really like this.
I enjoyed this. Than you. I will visit the Pioneer Saloon one day.
when you die young it's how awful; when you die old it's about time...
No one is EVER prepared for their loved one to die, even if they are sick, and/or old.
Your comment is insensitive, and rude.
If, and when you lose a loved one, maybe you will understand,
unless, you simply have no empathy. . .

Well sixish years of that kind of love connection , that can of love dream, is a special gift. Wonderful to have, once in a lifetime, forever in. A heart
If Gable was the King, then Lombard was the Queen. Sad they reigned only six years. Peace to them both.
What a shame that she was taken so soon. They looked very good together and I feel a genuine love when looking at they’re pictures together.
Most people don't know the reason Carole rushed back home was because Gable was making a movie with a new upcoming actress and was well known for his infidelity. This is why he felt so much remorse for her death! Her brothers never forgave him for the event that killed both their Mother and Sister. Gable also reaped a great deal of money from her death and was well known for being cheap! When his English wife after Carol moved in and started to redecorate the home he was said to be mad that she was spending too much of HIS money!
Agreed
Very. True
Susan Pearce, spot on,l don't know why she married gable may be she thought she could tame him,if carol had got back to the film set, she would have gone for turner .
Loved them both. Ying and Yang
Cynthia Gonzales Yin and Yang. But yes, they were.

What a handsome couple 👍
Really struggle to read over the pics.
What a beautiful love story!! Clark Gable was my first Hollywood crush!!
Cable was a see you next Tuesday. User of his first wife. Left her for another, after she fixed his teeth.
And he raped Loretta Young. That's how he got the daughter he ignored. Finally came out after Judy Lewis(the daughter) died. Her mother didn't want her to know it was a rape
I didn't know that GABLE & LOMBARD were a "POWER COUPLE" AWES😇ME !!!

@Patricia Walton Homewrecking is never excusable. And any guy who cheats on his wife, especially a wife like Carole, isn't worth the trouble, no matter how charming or good looking he is. If he cheats WITH you, he'll one day cheat ON you. And the sooner we all start holding guys like Clark - and women like Lana - accountable and stop glamorizing who they are and what they do as Inevitable and Irresistible and romantic, the better off everyone will be. Don't excuse either one of them. Clark paid a huge price, and in later years, so did Lana. She ended up regretting her choices, and became a serious and devout Catholic.
Divine simply , thanks for telling the truth about gable, carol Lombard
Mother also died in the plane crash, carol Lombard was to come back by train great gal with a terrific personality, but gable was always a womenizer.
Carol Lombard was gorgeous , but she was smart . Her death was quite a shock to everyone. And it was shrouded in mystery about what caused the airplane accident . They would let anyone go near it.
