    Hey Jordan, I'm a disabled veteran. Always wanted to be on your Patreon but I'm barely able to pay my bills or I would. You, by far are my favorite RUclips! I was wondering if you could do a segment on the band Badfinger? Their story is so tragic...their music is so hauntingly mesmerizing. You are the only one who would do it justice. You're the Best, Speedy

    It's actually Fairchild, WI where Carole was born. I have a connection to Carole Landis, in that I live in her grandparent's house. I met a guy that used to live in my house and he actually knew the grandmother when he was young. I had never heard of Landis till I moved from Fresno, CA to Fairchild, WI 20 yrs. ago So imagine my shock when I heard I lived in the grandparent's home. Their house burned down in the town Fairchild and the mom & her kids moved in w/her parents, so Carole lived here before the mom moved to CA. It seems strange that we moved here from CA. and that Carole moved from here to CA. Our library has a section devoted to Carole & her career.

      @@johnkurkowski2799 Yes, a big difference, our town is less that 500 people and we are proud of Landis. Hard to believe she lived here and made it to the Silver Screen of Hollywood. The president of Landis's Fan Club came to my house after she visited the library, they donated tons of stuff to the section we have to honor Landis.

    Oops, I forgot to add that Carole lived in our house ( her grandparents house) which was on a farm on 40 acres, we have since added 40 more acres. There was a fire in the house in Fairchild, and her brother was killed. So sad, then the father left the family. A rough childhood for Carole.

    She killed herself. she was in love with Rex Harrison I mean really in love with him… And he was in different… I’ve seen the pictures and they also put the pictures in the movie “Hollywood land“… I guess people may say that her body was in an odd position, she was bent over in her bathroom and her arms were at her sides like she was trying to pick herself up. And because of that people think someone else was involved but they weren’t… Carol was a romantic and emotional. she was an undiagnosed bipolar as well….

  • @cynthiamurphy3669

    Sorry, but Carole's sad tale reminds me of Marilyn Monroe but a bit more dramatic and out there. Sounds like she always had plenty of chances for a "normal" home life with an average guy, a marriage with kids, but truly not wanting "normal," rough childhood, unstable family situation, abused when young, needing stability but never quite happy when she got some of the right kind of attention. I sure wouldn't blame the men so much, either. It could well be she actually liked all the attention, whether it was bad or good. For her family to blame the men she got HERSELF involved with is funny; was the family hoping to cash in some way from Harrison??

  • @IndianOutlaw1870
    @IndianOutlaw1870 3 месяца назад

    She was married five times and wasn't even thirty years old. She lived far beyond her means and was in financial trouble because of it. Oh, and she was dating a married man and somehow thought it would end well. She killed herself. Rex was shady, but he wasn't a killer. He had no motive to kill anyone. Everybody in town knew they were having an affair.
