Clark Gable: Life Story (Jerry Skinner Documentary)

[@julianmarsh1378]

After Lombard died, Gable enlisted in the air force. An officer, he went against regulations and went on bombing missions, serving as a gunner. During the war, he visited a hospital for wounded soldiers. A medical officer, a major I believe, showed him around. They came to one shot up kid and the doctor went on about how the kid only had two hours to live. When Gable objected to talk like this in front of the poor soul, the doctor reassured him the boy was too shot up with morphine to understand anything. When Gable saw a tear come down the soldier's face, Gable took the officer out to the hall, threw him up against the wall and said if he ever did anything like that again, Gable would kill him. Since reading that story, my respect for Gable knows no limits.

I don’t know if it’s just me, but I love the narrator’s voice. It’s not professional at all, but it’s so calming and soothing. And I love learning about all my favorite old movie stars. I only meant to watch a couple of these, but I’ve been watching them all day long. I can’t get enough of them. 🤔

His voice IS professional. I watched a video by a woman who was evidently reading from her notes or some pre-written biography and although her voice was not unattractive it was very jarring to listen to because she paused in all the wrong places.

[@angelbabysqueaky3985]

I love his voice and the bios that he does are great

[@thejerseyj1636]

Clark Gable will always be "The King of Hollywood". No other actor, or for that matter, no other man had his charisma, and alpha male personality. It is telling that he was referred to as "Mr. Gable" by the people that interviewed him and by his fans when they would meet him.
There will never be another like him.

[@judyduke4667]

I can't believe he received one Oscar, he really deserved to get one for gone with the wind! Nobody could have played that part like him. Great actor, handsome! It's so sad he lost his wife Carol Lombard , they were perfect together!

[@brucelee8189]

My great aunt, got her lifelong nickname from Clark Gable.
She worked as a nurse aid, at a California hospital, wearing a pink hospital uniform.
She was walking down a hall, when someone opened a door into her.
She got knocked into Clarke’s arms. He caught her and said, “Hello, are you ok pinky?”
From then on, she was always known as “Pinky”. I met her when I was about 4 years old.
I never knew her as anything other than “Aunt Pinky”, until her death, when I learned her real first name. Kathryn.

[@rockie6890]

@@alvexok5523 "The most loved"? mostly overwhelmed by their glamour. He married at least three of his wives only because they could further his carrier. This is no man, this is a user.

[@alvexok5523]

Oh I'm not saying he wasn't a user, I'm just saying how many women adored him. He was quite rugged, along with Robert Taylor. If Taylor was around today, women would not leave him alone to catch his breath, that guy was more rugged than Mel Gibson in his prime.
Alot of those 1930s stars had on screen partners who were together for at least a few different films, and made their love for each other believable enough to where it was hard to believe something was not going on between them off screen. Best examples were Gable and Jean Harlow, Taylor and Eleanor Powell, William Powell and Myrna Loy, Dick Powell and Ruby Keeler, Rooney and Judy Garland, and Janette McDonald and Nelson Eddie. The latter two really did romance off screen. The others, no one was as sure about, and Powell and Keeler most likely had nothing going on off screen since Keeler was married to Al Jolson (who was the jealous type) and Dick Powell married Joan Blondell. There's still no way to know 100℅ if they didn't privately elope a few times, even behind their spouses' backs.

Ed Miller well if you’re gonna go after or confront someone at least use the correct darn word! ‘Loose’ is as in ‘your shirt is too loose’ or ‘my horse got loose’! But if you ‘lose’ something it means it’s gone, ‘I’m gonna lose my shit bcuz people constantly misuse the words!’ Or ‘seriously lose the loose tooth already kid or I’m gonna tie a string around it and tie it to the door then slam the door and yank it outta there!’

No ur all wrong Jean Harlow had an affair with William Powell aka The Think Man and she became pregnant with his child but had to have an abortion or was forced to by the head of the Studio because Powell was married and having an affair with the 26 yr old Harlow this would have ruined his career and unfortunately after she had the abortion she developed an infection that killed her. Clark Gable knew this and that's why he was so worried about her but unfortunately couldn't save her in time

Paul Bern was gay and never hurt her

One of the best channels on UA-cam, god bless you Jerry, wish you and your family a wonderful and happy Christmas.

[@truerosie]

Thank you Jerry for these beautifully made videos of more elegant times. I particularly like the respect and kindness in your voice as you speak of these people who have entertained us for decades. So much more pleasant to listen to than the robot computer voices. Your videos are several cuts above those. You're a class act Jerry, thank you.

[@JerrySkinner1943]

I can tell, you are a class act yourself. Jerry

[@w.m.aslam-author]

Thank you for creating and sharing this wonderful piece of documentary making. I really enjoy your sentimental and thoughtful work. We can learn so much from the lives of artists such as Clark Gable, from the highs and lows of his life. My best regards.

[@myrianvalenzuela9199]

I really like Clark Gable in GONE WITH THE WIND. He has such a charming eyes. Just like Elvis Presley.

True n rather people saw it clark lost something about him when his true love passed n Elvis lost his twinkle when priscilla divorced him

Thank you, Jerry. Your gentle voice adds a lot of sympathy and understanding to these stories. I feel that you give attention to the many people who played important roles in the lives of these "stars."

[@sharonking7727]

What a fabulous, full life this memorably, gifted actor had. And all the lucky ladies who were loved by him. Thank you for the sentimental portrayal of the master of leading men..Mr. Clark Gable. Thank you so much for sharing this nicely documented & narrated pictorial history of a fine gentleman & distinguished actor❤

[@Kari.F.]

This voice and accent is absolutely perfect for the narration of golden age Hollywood movie classics and the people who played in them, and all the other celebrities of that time. Interesting, and weirdly calming at a time when there's so much angry yelling going on. Perfect! Perfect! Perfect!
I just discovered this channel. I will be binging on these videos all weekend long! ❤️

[@frequencyfluxfandango8504]

Hauntingly beautiful. You did a great job narrating all that information and it really swept me away.. . . . . .

[@alvexok5523]

Clark Gable was one of the greatest, most iconic 1930s male stars, he was amazing. The narration of this video was fabulous, he really helped everything said really tug at the heart strings.

[@moteleyes2]

I LOVE this man. He is definitely a ONE OF A KIND!! Gone With the Wind is my favorite movie...❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤

@Vickie OGLESBY Clark Gable got some black in him.

[@roymartinwallbanks898]

A very well made and informative bio-pic Mr Skinner. I had no idea Mr Gable had such a difficult life. Thanks

[@maruskawhelan417]

Yes agree

[@H.pylori]

Your videos are very well done and informative. I always thought that Gable died of lung cancer. Gable was only 59 and today would have been saved by coronary artery bypass surgery. Actors like him seemed larger than life.

[@typower9]

Didn't his second wife die from a triple heart bypass?

[@bikerbisht110]

Great story by a great storyteller who has obviously done a lot of homework .... Thanks Jerry

[@awatfordgirl]

Thank you. I truly enjoyed watching this short documentary. At first, I too, was surprised by the narrator's soft, slightly southern, voice, but the voice was so gentle, and the facts so interestingly shared, I was entranced. I highly recommend this to anyone who loved, and admired, this great actor, Clark Gable.

that documentary about Clark gable was excellent, it exposed an
incredible human life, thank you.

[@charlieangelyoutube]

@Piatequila it’s the name of the game. Both in Hollywood and film industries abroad people married and hooked up for career advancement. If you didn’t accept someone else would in your position. It was a well-known fact that you couldn’t establish yourself in film if you didn’t marry or bed someone.
