when rocky read his poem "these things are good, these things are a drag" I BURST into tears. And continued bursting throughout the movie. It just cut me in half. Eric Stoltz deserved an Oscar.
Love this movie! Rocky Dennis had a great sense of humor, he would go to grocery stores to scare customers and he played a joke on my Aunt, and scared her at Covina Farms grocery store in Covina CA this was in the 70's
Rocky used to push my son then three years old around the parking lot at Ralph’s in Glendora while I shopped. What a friendly young man he was. In later years my younger son spent time at Camp Bloomfield a camp for the visually impaired with Rocky. It was great to see Rocky again, he passed away soon after. We were blessed to know him.
It's wonderful that this movie was made in the raw way that it was; film can teach you so much and give you the insight into someone else's world that wouldn't be possible otherwise. Super job matching up the scenes to the locations as they are today.
Thanks for doing this! I mentioned a few months ago about Rocky Dennis in one of your video comment section. I've watched *Mask* almost once every few years. Very touching movie. Side note: Cher should have won an Oscar for her performance of Rusty.
The newer remastered version is all Bruce Springsteen.. I think the only Bob Seger song in this new version is Cat man due. I liked the Bob version better though.
My dad being from LA, was working in a LA clothing store in the late 60s while in high school when the real Rocky came in w his mother and the bikers. It’s a memory he’s never forgot.
What a great movie. Loved Cher in it she did a phenomenal job. My favorite actor Sam Elliot was at his hottest look and of course I loved him! I had forgotten Estelle Getty was in the movie. Thanks for sharing Jordan!
@@colleenhoperue5538 Well, my mom's older sister was best friend's with Rocky's aunt. Rocky and my mom spent a lot of time together, but they weren't exactly friends. More like family. My mom would get really mad at Rocky. My mom says no one ever talks about what a little sh!t he could be. Haha.
I usually never comment on these things, but I had to make an exception today! I was an avid Sonny and Cher Fan as a child growing up in the 60's and 70's and am still a tremendous Cher fan today. I have wanted to request of you to possibly do a Vlog on Places Sonny and Cher have lived or recorded throughout the 60's and then 70's but these are great location's to see also, This was Awesome to see!! Thanks Dude!
I loved this movie. Cher should’ve been atleast nominated for an Oscar!!! She’s one of my favorite. She can so do anything!!!! Rocky..rest in peace. 😢♥️
Friday evenings are usually the best day to go to Monrovia. That is when their farmer's market is. :) The real Rocky lived in Azusa and Glendora. You mentioned in a previous recent video that LA does not have much of a community feel. But the cities in this area often have closer-knit communities. In my neighborhood, we have neighborhood events to make sure that neighbors spend more time with each other. So not all of LA is like that. Wow, they have really let that cemetery decline. I wonder what is going on there?
LOVE this movie! When it came out, my brother was a co-manager in a movie theater, so I got to get in free----saw many movies back then, and since I didn't have to pay, I saw this one in the theater at least three times! Great each time. The thing about the soundtrack is that Peter Bogdanovich (spelling?) wanted Bruce Springsteen to be the main artist, and The Boss was fine with it, but for some reason the studio wasn't. So that's why you hear more Bob Seger in it. Bob is great as well and I like the tunes used by him, but I'm interested in which ones by Bruce they would've used. Love "Ripple" by The Grateful Dead, and it fits perfectly at the end. Glad you showed a real pic of Rocky Dennis and told about how his body was donated to UCLA....I never knew that! Thanks again for another stellar post! Give Jah a pet for me!
The MASK was a great movie. I watched it in the 80's as well. It's a sad story. I think many people have forgotten about this movie. Thanks Jordan for sharing the story of the movie. Great leg work finding the shots from the film. I agree, not normally a Cher fan, but she was fantastic in this movie. It has been a while since I have seen it, may have to go back and watch it again.
LOVE Cher, Sam Elliott and the "BOSS" A wonderful sad movie. It was like going back in time with this vlog. Nothing has really changed. Love that. Peace to you
Cher and Peter Bogdonovitch fought each other tooth and nail throughout the filming...she wanted to wear a wig for the role and he refused to allow her to do so, insisting that everyone would know she was wearing a wig. So she went and had her hair bleached and dyed red to satisfy his demands. Her hair was fried by this and broke off ...so she wore the wig instead and he never figured it out. He also threatened to cut her out of the film saying it was all about the boy and her part was expendable.....they have a history as he was a writer for LOOK magazine in the 1960's and interviewed Sonny and CHER at the height of their rise to fame. The studio didn't wanna pay for Bruce Springsteen's music to be in the soundtrack as he was so famous and popular at that time...instead they put a lot of Bob Seeger music in the film...the directors cut fixes that and many other things. This whole movie and CHER not even being nominated for her performance is what prompted her to wear that infamous all black outfit to present on the Oscar telecast that year...."As you can see I did receive my booklet from the academy on how to dress like a serious actress" ....and it is still printed every year in papers across the world at the time of the Oscars.
@@cherstyler I hear that..I am the same way..I read constantly and have read tons of bios and autobios and if I like a movie I reasearch all the little details and trivia and I also feel like I know all sorts of useless Info!
Cher was outstanding in her role..I cannot imagine this movie without her. I have watched mask at least once a year since I was a teenager and the scene where Rocky is dead and she realizes it makes me cry every single time..Meryl Streep is very hyped and I think she is a good acteess but Cher is just as good in my opinion. I have never watched cher in anything and fail...she hasn't been in as much movies as meryl so there is more of a marine for error for Meryl. I watched that movie Ricky and the flash the other day and I thought she was awful in it...for such an acclaimed acteess I should buy her performance in anything and she just didn't come across as believable in anyway to me as a rock star, she sang a song in iti think called cold one and it was suppose to be a cool song and I just thought it was awful...just my opinion though. Cher would have probably rocked that role and Benn believable as a washed up ex rock star who sold her family out for a chance to rock.
Excellent matchups , this was a fun trip back to the 80s, I remember my trip to the theater after reading good reviews like it was yesterday. Luv these movie vlogs
Thank you Jordan. Morning coffee and seeing Jah 😍😍😍 how great is that! I remember this movie like it was yesterday, loved it then, and yes a total tear jerker...I actually started tearing up watching this VLOG during Rocky's poem. Very sad. Brilliant work again Jordan 😎😎✨🌮🌮🌮🐒🐾🐾😎😎
Don’t forget Les Dudek ! Cher was actually dating him in real life at the time . He was a rock star in his own right , had some great stuff . Great movie , always loved it !
One of my favorite movies! Yeah, Cher but for me, 'ol Sam does it for me. Viva la Sam! When you donate your body, about a year later, your family gets your ashes back. Wonder where Rocky's ashes are now. My mom was a biker so this movie hits real close to me. She died about 12 yrs ago of ALS and donated her body.
Oh I love this movie too, Jordan! I think I’ve watched it three times throughout the years. So sad, but one you never forget. I love the way you match up real places with the movie scenes of the same. Great vlog!
Bad ass video bro I live in Arcadia right by Monrovia and I still haven’t went to see that house I grew up in the 80’s and that is one of my all time favorite movies
I remember going to the movies with my mom and my aunt to see Mask...I enjoyed that movie so much I bet I could remember the scenes verbatim. I did cry along with my mom when Rocky died. I remember my mom had a huge crush on Sam Elliott. Great vlog Jordan..
I was born in 1985 so I grew up hearing this story and watching this film! I have seen it hundreds and hundreds of times! Rocky’s story and this film are both remarkable! Thank you for paying homage to them! 🤟❤️💛💚
💋I am a Huge Cher fan!!! I can't even put into words how much I love her and what an inspo she has been to me! Great movie! Thank you Jordan this made me sooooo Happy! Blessings to U, Jah and this channel. Love and Light 💖Carli
Such an incredible movie! I remember reading once that Cher's Academy Award win for Moonstruck was actually a make-up for not even being nominated for Mask. Don't know why that story has always stuck in my brain. As always fantastic vlog!!
Thank you Jordan. That was a good movie. Cher was my idol when I was little- loved Sonny and Cher show. Now that I'm older- I'm not a big fan of her singing but she is definitely an amazing actress!!
This vlog brings back memories. I watched this movie so many times when I was younger. Now that I’m a parent I can’t bring myself to watch it. You did great Jordan.
I saw this for the first time when it was at the cinema and I also think my mum bought it on VHS cause I've seen in many times. Even though it was a sad movie, what a brilliant one it was Thanks for sharing Jordan. It was one of my favourites in the 80s and still is to this day just haven't seen it for years
I've been a sub for many years & am just now seeing this?! One of my TOP 3 movies of all time!! ❤️ Thank you for doing this for us! Hugs, from Mesa, AZ 🌵
Very cool video you done here. I love this movie. I just watched it yesterday. I have it and I watch it at least once a week. Idk why I’m so obsessed. I’ve looked up everything about Roy that’s his real name and his mother Rusty. Not a lot about them which is sad. Why I had to click on this video! Wow really cool seeing the real places and what they look like now..ty so much for this. ❤ The soundtracks was Bob Seiger .. not Bruce. Bruce was his favorite but they couldn’t afford Bruce music so they used Bob S.. That’s true the mother talks about it. She nor Rocky didn’t even know who Bob s was. She tells the story why they had to use his music..
This is at the top of the list of my favorite movies of all time! When I ask people if they saw the movie it really annoys me when they say oh the mask with Jim Carrey. 🙄 I love this movie! Cher kills it! and Sam Elliott is amazing! I know him. He shops at Gelsons where I used to work. I had the pleasure of getting a hug and a peck on the cheek from him as well as an autographed DVD of mask! I love that you did this one Jordan! You pick really interesting places to visit and I appreciate the fact that you honor real Hollywood legends!
Aztec Hotel - the architect Robert Stacy-Judd is worth a vlog. He was interested in Mayan (inc Mexico, pre-Spanish conquest of) culture and all three of his buildings in LA reflect it.
I was 14 when it came out. was fascinated with it as a young girl. Always have liked movies based on true stories. Well done! I do enjoy movie match ups!
I'll have to put this movie back on my list. It has been years since I saw it. I remember that is when I discovered Eric Stolz and loved his acting. Sure is a reminder about putting life into perspective. Although I personally don't care for Cher as a singer, I really always have appreciated her as an actress. You did an excellent job on this vlog!
I saw that movie at the old Evergreen Plaza movie theater here in Chicago my freshman year in high school i remember crying when Rocky died.Also like to add that Kelly Jo Minter(Lost Boys,Summer School and People Under Stairs fame) was also in Mask she was the girl in Rocky's room.
I thought I had heard many years ago that Laura Dern (Diana) had said that the training for and acting blind in the film really took a toll on her to the point where she felt her vision was actually different for awhile. Mask is one of the best films for taking you on a perfect emotional journey, I can't imagine anyone NOT loving this movie.
Very astounding how things and places just sit there like time never went by while we the people just come and go. Thanks for doing this! Loved Mask and Cher in it! Her acting was just so vulnerable and humane! Loved her ❤️ RIP Rocky Dennis 💐
I love that movie !! I am so glad you did this vlog . I use to think this would be cool to see in person. Well , since I can't get there...this is the next best thing . Jordan , why is the grass and trees dead in the cemetery ? Thank you so much for sharing this with us Jordan and Jau. I think this one is up there as one of my favorites. Love it !!
Ik. I watched it last night and started bawling from the point of his graduation when Dozer told him he was proud of him, the poem at the end and yes, when Rusty found him gone.
Im so glad you did this video! And with great detail. I looked for a video of these locations many times with no luck. Awesome job. Little fun fact...cher was actually married to a real biker from a well known club. (Subbed)
I absolutely love this movie. Thanks for posting this. I didn't know much about the movie nor do I know much about Rocky's life. I did learn Rusty died in a motorcycle accident a few years ago. I also learned Rocky had a brother.
Jordan, you are going to make me a couch potato! As I watch through your vlogs I see so many classics I need to rewatch and you have introduced me to so many others I haven't seen. Mask is definitely one I need to rewatch. Cher was phenomenal. This came out when I was a teenager so I don't remember many of the other actors that were in it and didn't realize Eric Stoltz played Rocky. I really like him. Thank you for making this incredible video!
I have loved this movie and yes very sad. Sam Elliot is such an amazing Actor. Cher was amazing in this. Loved the bikers interaction with Rocky. Thanks for sharing this. 💗
when rocky read his poem "these things are good, these things are a drag" I BURST into tears. And continued bursting throughout the movie. It just cut me in half. Eric Stoltz deserved an Oscar.
That was a real poem real rocky wrote in real life
Eric Stolz should have got an award for his performance!
👍👍
Why? Explain
As well as Cher
@@curtisboyce244 He did an incredible job, that is why.
What if i said “you should not be alive anymore”? Does that mean my wishes need to supersede reality? Imagine if thats how it worked.
I actually knew Rocky Dennis ,we went to the same school he was a sweetheart.
I bet he was I'm 56 I would have Loved to hang out with Rocky
That’s so cool. Was his mother like they portrayed her?
That's good to hear. Good for you😊. I bet he was an angel 😇
That’s awesome
Really? That's great. And what was he like?
one of my all time favourite movies!!
R.I.P Rocky Dennis
Love this movie! Rocky Dennis had a great sense of humor, he would go to grocery stores to scare customers and he played a joke on my Aunt, and scared her at Covina Farms grocery store in Covina CA this was in the 70's

@@cindywright4989 That is awesome! I always remember my Aunt telling me her story, and I love the movie even more bc of her experience 😃
I used to work at the California donuts in that parking lot maybe we crossed paths?
Sam Elliott is simply the coolest dude to ever walk this planet!
High def. mustache!!
And the hottest!
“The Dude abides”
He never gets ugly that's for sure!! Lol!
And the finest! 😍
It's wonderful that this movie was made in the raw way that it was; film can teach you so much and give you the insight into someone else's world that wouldn't be possible otherwise. Super job matching up the scenes to the locations as they are today.

Side note: Cher should have won an Oscar for her performance of Rusty.
Was the cemetery scene done in areal cemetery or in a park to make it appear so?
Roll Me Away by Bob Seger still makes me cry because of this film. Such a great movie
Yup
Yes, perfect song. I love Bob Seger so naturally I thought the soundtrack was great 😃
Sad thing is Rocky didn't even know Bob Segar. The music was suppose to have been Springsteen's music. But was more expensive to use.
The newer remastered version is all Bruce Springsteen.. I think the only Bob Seger song in this new version is Cat man due. I liked the Bob version better though.
Directors cut
Great Movie! I always remember the scene of Rocky explaining colors to his blind love interest played by Laura Dern.
My dad being from LA, was working in a LA clothing store in the late 60s while in high school when the real Rocky came in w his mother and the bikers.
It’s a memory he’s never forgot.
Got any Details? Thanks.
liar
That's awesome
I used to watch this movie with my mother because she loved it also. She has passed, bless her soul, but this reminds me of her. Thank you Jordan
Cher played a awesome mom in this movie.. mask is one of my favorite movies of all times...it's a sad story but true!
What a great movie. Loved Cher in it she did a phenomenal job. My favorite actor Sam Elliot was at his hottest look and of course I loved him! I had forgotten Estelle Getty was in the movie. Thanks for sharing Jordan!
Laura Dern was also in "Mask", as Diana, the blind girl Rocky falls in love with.
This is too cool!
1)My mom grew up with the real Rocky Dennis in Azusa. Their families were pretty close.
2)I live in Monrovia.
I lived there during that time too but moved farther up north like roys mother did Azusa has changed a bit but still has a community feel to it
@Bunny Bubs you probably wouldn't be either if you had to go through the things he did
I lived in azuza when i was young.and monrovia born i west covina
That's so nice.Was your mom friends with Rocky?
@@colleenhoperue5538
Well, my mom's older sister was best friend's with Rocky's aunt. Rocky and my mom spent a lot of time together, but they weren't exactly friends. More like family. My mom would get really mad at Rocky. My mom says no one ever talks about what a little sh!t he could be. Haha.

Good idea
The movie made me cry when I saw it in the theater. Cher is excellent in the movie Silkwood and many more! Thanks Jordan and have a great day!
Absolutely love this movie but it breaks my heart. Well acted. Sam Elliott was awesome.
I loved this movie. Cher should’ve been atleast nominated for an Oscar!!! She’s one of my favorite. She can so do anything!!!! Rocky..rest in peace. 😢♥️
Friday evenings are usually the best day to go to Monrovia. That is when their farmer's market is. :) The real Rocky lived in Azusa and Glendora. You mentioned in a previous recent video that LA does not have much of a community feel. But the cities in this area often have closer-knit communities. In my neighborhood, we have neighborhood events to make sure that neighbors spend more time with each other. So not all of LA is like that.

I lived in Glendora from 88-92
My grandparents lived across the street from citrus college in the 70s maybe 60s to 2000s
Eric Stoltz never seemed to get the respect he deserved although he had a reputation of pissing people off he has been in some really great movies!
He was also the original cast for Marty McFly in BTTF.
MASK was such a good movie, dang dude u always impress me! 😎
I remember this movie vividly well! I cried so much- such a sad story! Well played and good cast! Now I want to watch it!

Nicely done Jordan! Amazing how the neighborhood in Monrovia was virtually unchanged.
I'm a huge Sam Elliott fan. Loved him in Tombstone.
I found a movie he was in LIfeguard. Whoa.
he is sexy!
He was also pretty awesome in the movie Road House with Patrick Swayze (:
He's great in The Big Lebowski!
Gar would put Doc Holliday in a Full-Nelson and make him bow to his sensei.
The MASK was a great movie. I watched it in the 80's as well. It's a sad story. I think many people have forgotten about this movie. Thanks Jordan for sharing the story of the movie. Great leg work finding the shots from the film. I agree, not normally a Cher fan, but she was fantastic in this movie.

It's, just "Mask"
Mask not the mask.
This movie came out when I was five years old and thirty four years later still makes me cry.RIP Roy L.Dennis aka Rocky.
Another one of my favorite movies ever. You just keep killing it Jordan!

Excellent matchups , this was a fun trip back to the 80s, I remember my trip to the theater after reading good reviews like it was yesterday. Luv these movie vlogs
The graveyard grass was much more healthy bk in 1984.
I noticed that. Why does it look so bad now? Droughts?
Thank you Jordan. Morning coffee and seeing Jah 😍😍😍 how great is that! I remember this movie like it was yesterday, loved it then, and yes a total tear jerker...I actually started tearing up watching this VLOG during Rocky's poem. Very sad. Brilliant work again Jordan 😎😎✨🌮🌮🌮🐒🐾🐾😎😎

One of my favorite movies! Yeah, Cher but for me, 'ol Sam does it for me. Viva la Sam!
When you donate your body, about a year later, your family gets your ashes back. Wonder where Rocky's ashes are now.
My mom was a biker so this movie hits real close to me. She died about 12 yrs ago of ALS and donated her body.
Thank You Very Much for vlogging this movie, Jordan! This movie is amongst my Favorite movies of all time! 👍🙂
Great vlog. Story of Rocky is sad but his strength was so evident. Cher was wonderful in Mask. Thanks for sharing this. Belinda in NC
I love the fact that there are so many fans of this amazing movie …thank you for doing this.
I watched this movie as a kid with my mom still love it till this day
Oh I love this movie too, Jordan! I think I’ve watched it three times throughout the years. So sad, but one you never forget. I love the way you match up real places with the movie scenes of the same. Great vlog!
Bad ass video bro I live in Arcadia right by Monrovia and I still haven’t went to see that house I grew up in the 80’s and that is one of my all time favorite movies

Aztec Hotel - the architect Robert Stacy-Judd is worth a vlog. He was interested in Mayan (inc Mexico, pre-Spanish conquest of) culture and all three of his buildings in LA reflect it.
I was 14 when it came out. was fascinated with it as a young girl. Always have liked movies based on true stories. Well done! I do enjoy movie match ups!
I'll have to put this movie back on my list. It has been years since I saw it. I remember that is when I discovered Eric Stolz and loved his acting. Sure is a reminder about putting life into perspective. Although I personally don't care for Cher as a singer, I really always have appreciated her as an actress. You did an excellent job on this vlog!
Loved this movie, incredible cast.✨✨✨👍🎥
This has to be one of your best! Thank you!
I saw that movie at the old Evergreen Plaza movie theater here in Chicago my freshman year in high school i remember crying when Rocky died.Also like to add that Kelly Jo Minter(Lost Boys,Summer School and People Under Stairs fame) was also in Mask she was the girl in Rocky's room.
I Knew she looked familiar!!!!!! SS is another fave of mine
I thought I had heard many years ago that Laura Dern (Diana) had said that the training for and acting blind in the film really took a toll on her to the point where she felt her vision was actually different for awhile. Mask is one of the best films for taking you on a perfect emotional journey, I can't imagine anyone NOT loving this movie.
Very astounding how things and places just sit there like time never went by while we the people just come and go. Thanks for doing this! Loved Mask and Cher in it! Her acting was just so vulnerable and humane! Loved her ❤️ RIP Rocky Dennis 💐
Great vlog!!! Thank you so much Jordan!!
I love that movie !! I am so glad you did this vlog . I use to think this would be cool to see in person. Well , since I can't get there...this is the next best thing . Jordan , why is the grass and trees dead in the cemetery ?
Thank you so much for sharing this with us Jordan and Jau. I think this one is up there as one of my favorites. Love it !!
I always end up bawling when I watch this movie and Rusty finds out that Rocky has passed away..
Ik. I watched it last night and started bawling from the point of his graduation when Dozer told him he was proud of him, the poem at the end and yes, when Rusty found him gone.
That was a great movie! Cher, Eric Stoltz and Sam Elliott were amazing in this film! Thank you for showing us the filming locations!
Great movie and great vlog. Matched it up perfectly! Cher and Sam Elliot were my favorite actors in this movie. Makes me cry everytime I watch it.
This was so great man! You cover so many cult classics...incredible Jordan!! Loved this one!!!
I like the cartoon intro! Cool😎👍
Jah and the 50 foot Jordan!
Right on francine👍😎🌹👏
Thanks for sharing this, Jordan. One of my all-time favorite movies and great actors! Jah is so precious....Have a great day!
Im so glad you did this video! And with great detail. I looked for a video of these locations many times with no luck. Awesome job.
Little fun fact...cher was actually married to a real biker from a well known club. (Subbed)
Im glad you enjoyed it!
I absolutely love this movie. Thanks for posting this. I didn't know much about the movie nor do I know much about Rocky's life. I did learn Rusty died in a motorcycle accident a few years ago. I also learned Rocky had a brother.
Yeah, I heard she was riding a three wheeled motorcycle, and one of the wheels flew off while she was going through an intersection! Crazy
My mum introduced to me to this film at a young age. It’s amazing yet heartbreaking 😢❤
I used to ride with Rusty. She lived right next door to me in Azusa.
I lived around the corner at 339 S. Pasadena Ave across from Edgewood park. I was a kid,but I remember seeing Rocky around alot.
Never knew you did a vlog on this movie. One of my all time faves! Thanks Jordan.. 😊
A Great Movie And A Great Vlog By A Great Vlogger.. Keep Up The Good Work... I Sure Did Love This One...
Jordan, you are going to make me a couch potato! As I watch through your vlogs I see so many classics I need to rewatch and you have introduced me to so many others I haven't seen. Mask is definitely one I need to rewatch. Cher was phenomenal. This came out when I was a teenager so I don't remember many of the other actors that were in it and didn't realize Eric Stoltz played Rocky. I really like him. Thank you for making this incredible video!
I have loved this movie and yes very sad. Sam Elliot is such an amazing Actor. Cher was amazing in this. Loved the bikers interaction with Rocky. Thanks for sharing this. 💗
That movie was so good I cried at the end 😢
