Fixed a couple errors and re-uploaded. Thanks to all you wonderful and observant viewers for keeping me honest! I kept all your lovely comments from the earlier version in my heart.
Hollywood Graveyard You make the best video's I really enjoy them.
You have such a pleasing voice I could listen to you all day
Hollywood Graveyard 😢😢😢
james l brooks also was the man behing classic shows as the mary tyler moore show and rhoda and taxi
Thank you, we do hope to make it to Ferncliff someday.
I noticed on Karl Malden’s stone that it looked like there was a space for his wife, so I thought either: 1) he married someone MUCH younger than he, or, 2) she is VERY old.
So, I looked it up and Karl’s wife, Mona, just recently died on July 13, 2019 at the age of 102!!! Wow! I hope they’re reunited and resting peacefully.
Your shows are interesting and well produced. Thanks and keep up the good work.
@@karenbottom2364 you are right
Greetings from the Netherlands
Thank you. I wondered too.
I am so fascinated with show, I can't get enough
Yeah I’m here every day
I absolutely LOVE how you speak of the deceased. You show a lot of respect, and you do your homework. I would love to see videos on cemeteries outside of Hollywood. There's many celebrities and dignitaries interred in other areas. I enjoy spending time in these places as a connection to the past. I think it would be a wonderful project.
Right
Greetings from Holland
He did a series of videos in the New York area

YES. Same !!!
I love how Irwin Winkler already has his grave set up. “ Honey Im going out to visit my grave and lay flowers. I’ll be back later” 😀😀😀
I love Westwood. So many stones feature funny phrases that always send me laughing. Ex: "There Goes The Neighborhood" or " I'm a Writer, But Then, Nobody's Perfect" and my favorite, " I Will NOT Be Right Back After This Message." I love em.
When I watched the segment on Farrah Fawcett's final resting place, it brought back a fond memory. My ex was a fan of Farrah's (he had a hugh crush on her), so for Christmas I bought him the now-iconic red swimming suit poster of Farrah. When he opened it, his eyes lit up. It was one of the best (and most appreciated) gifts I ever got for him. Thanks Graveyard Tour guys for bringing back such a great memory!
I really want to visit this cemetery. Just about every single iconic actor from the 70's and 80's is buried here. It's still hard to believe that some of these actors like Peter Peter Falk, Jack Klugman, and George C Scott are gone now. It's almost like they live with us forever through their work.
RIP Doris Roberts.... I was fortunate enough to have met her when she was still alive. I was working at Austin Airport at the time and she was flying out. Everybody Loves Raymond was one of my all time favorite TV shows, due to her. Her death really saddened me.
I feel like I am a morbid person for liking these videos.
BorikenW it's human curiosity I think. I like them too. And death is part of life. It comes to us all. I have also watched post mortem videos. People dead in their caskets etc. Now those videos are creepy. If you can handle them you should check them out. There's a few on YT.
I embrace my morbidity haha
But I see this video series more as a memorial to the famous departed than anything macabre.
I personally like to look at 'em as the Cliff's Notes of pop culture history. 😀
I find them history interesting it's not morbid it's knowing about the old star of yester year it's very cool
I like the biographical aspect plus it's interesting to see the simple graves many of them have.
Jack Lemmon and Walter Matthau are buried here.They have been and remain my soul actors!Thenks!
Walter Matthau, 1974 film The Taking Of Pelham one two three! I had the privilege of witnessing this awesome movie at the theater. RIP
I always learn things from these videos and find them very interesting. It is said that 'no-one is truly dead as long as there is somebody alive to remember them'. We remember them :)
I really think this is the best cemetery In LA, just for its size and ease in finding graves. I loved it . We visited in 2012 and can't wit to go back. Great job on this edition !!
So heartbreaking to see the grave of Sage Stallone. My heart aches for his parents, Sylvester and Sasha. There is no greater heartbreak than for a parent to bury a child. RIP Sage Stallone, you were so, so young.
Another nice video. I was at Westwood back in '95 specifically to visit Marilyn. I remember WW being difficult to find as I kept driving past that narrow rode that leads to it its entrance. So many great buried here. If I were rich & famous, I'd choose this location, too. Thanks again Arrhur. Never stop. 👏👏👏👏
Rodney Dangerfield said “I had a dog named Egypt, i named him Egypt because he left pyramids in the backyard “ 😂
This graveyard is rich with Hollywood history. Thanks for the tour. Well done-upbeat and yet moving. 💐
I'm addicted to this series more or less shedding light on some actors and entertainers from yesteryear that alot of us never heard of. Also the ones we do know and the summarization of their careers, i find very interesting
Rodney Dangerfield - There goes the neighborhood. ....best epitaph ever
What is that mean?
JohnnySwayzeShow he had a joke about it. “I get no respect at all. I bought a burial plot. The guy said there goes the neighborhood.” Awesome that they put it on his headstone.
@@De44leted55 means the neighborhood is going to shit...
I really do miss Rodney. The jokes just rolled out of him like a machine. There will never be anyone like him again.
I love Rodney.
lemmon and mathau ... great actors . great friends ... hell theres no one like them these days
Never will be again.
Sethasss :It would've been funny if they were buried next to each other.
Best actors ever! God bless their soul. Rest in peace!
What a team. They were awesome together. 2 of the best and funniest
Walter Matthau also played neighbor George Wilson in one of my favorite childhood movies Dennis The Menace 😊 Thank you Arthur for your hard work and the great memories you bring 😊
You do a great job! You must spent countless hours researching. You're one cool guy!
"Hey Mr. Wilson!" Dennis the Menace 😢
The apartment is one of the greatest films of all time. Jack Lemmon and Shirley MacLaine’s vulnerability just touches your heart.
First let me say that these tours you have created are absolute masterpieces! They are done with taste and knowledge. As a funeral director, I am fascinated by theses cemeteries and those that are resting there. I have a few questions. The first one being were there any cemeteries that gave you a hard time filming there and second, which one would you like to be buried in?
Funnily enough Peggy Lee did a remake of Fanny Brice's song My Man on one of her albums. I always thought that was Peggy's song but this video has told me otherwise! Love that I learn new things with this channel. I love it!
Janet Leigh worked with both Tony Curtis and Kirk Douglas in 1958 in a fantastic movie called,"The Vikings".
Released two years before Psycho.
And seven years before that in 1953,her and Tony Curtis starred in "Houdini"
Another wonderful film.
Her daughter, Jamie Lee Curtis, stared in the Halloween franchise. She would be so proud.
I was at this cemetery today. Your videos helped me find so many more people I would of skipped over. Thank you author
You don't realize how truly tiny this cemetery is until you're actually there. But SO much to see. I need to go back because I missed so many of these graves.
Binge-watching Hollywood Graveyard while everyone is out stockpiling toilet paper. 🙌
I love the research you do on the actors.
peter falk he's the best detective ever.
Oh there’s just one other thing........... priceless
Me thinks Detective Jim Rockford has something to say about that
I really do think these video's deserve some kind of award! Very well done and so interesting!
It's amazing to look at the headstones of the various people! Some go full out while others have a simplistic beauty!
I especially enjoyed Walter M. in “Dennis the Menace” as Mr. Wilson. Hilarious !
I will visit this beautiful place when I will go to Los Angeles.Thanks for presenting this quiet place full of memories!
My ex and I enjoy Columbo and now I sit alone and watch every episode. RIP Peter Fall.
I always wondered where the phrase “I’m ready for my closeup, Mr. DeMille” came from..... no idea it was from a movie about that director!!!! Learn something new every day
Everybody needs to see "Sunset Boulevard" (1950). Everyone.
Yes!! Sunset boulevard is a classic... Gloria swanson
Great actors and all the graves took me back in time. Thank very much!
The most interesting class I took in college was "Death & Dying," a Sociology class. While Death has been around since the beginning of life, dying is a relatively new phenomenon. The class did address the fact that funerals and cemeteries are for the living, not the dead. And yes the question was asked on the first day of class: "have your ever had a student die while attending your class?" Answer? "Not in class, bit yes, during the semester. I did, as I will you give an A posthumously if you die sometime e during this semester.
A class like that does make one think. What to do with my corpse? Nothing is permanent. My science Professor spoke of how in billions of years the Sun will expand and envelope Mercury and burn the Earth to a crispy critter and nothing will remain. In Egypt, the socked away all the I important people in the Valley of the Kings. Hoping mankind would leave them alone for eternity. What happened? Some yardbird stumbles upon the opening of grave sites and start digging up Pharoahs and put them "ON TOUR!!!!" The very last thing the folks in Egypt thousands of years ago wanted.
Which made me start thinking. What is going to happen to all these graves featured in Hollywood Graveyard? No, not in our lifetime. But say 10, 20, 30 generations from 2020? As sick as the world is today, who knows what they will come up with? But since we know what all these entertainers look and sounded like with pictures, records, and video, I can see a new genre category of entertainment for future fans.
Some of your already see where I'm going. They were entertainers, their families long gone (like the Egyptians) to protest, dig em up!!! Take them out of the Mausoleum and open em up to see how time has treated these people? Not just stars, but regular folks too. As long as we have pictures and a back story to tell of who they were when they were here.
Oh I know some of you will be appalled at the mere suggestion, but who knows what the social morals of this place will be in a couple a 300 to 900 years? If we haven't had some major catastrophe that wiped everything out and or all these cemeteries and Mausoleums torn down (because the land was too valuable and needed because of population growth) or bodies used as a fuel supply? George Carlin asked "why are we saving up all the dead bodies just for one spot in town? Let's start digging these people up!!! Recycling these people! Talk about Urban Renewal!!!!!"
I guess my real question is: WHAT REALLY WILL BE THE INEVITABLE FATE OF ALL THE HUGE CEMETERIES AND THEIR BEAUTIFUL MAUSOLEUMS SCATTERED ACROSS OUR COUNTRY?
Love your videos! I learn a lot about past famous people that I wouldn't know otherwise!
From this video tour, my favorites are Jack Lemmon, Walter Matthau, Peter Falk & Jack Klugman.
It's amazing to me how so many are connected. I learned of those that I didnt know have passed and learned of parents of those today. Hollywood is one big circle.
Didn't know about Doris Roberts death. She sure was a very unique actress to say the least. And needless to say Farrah Fawcett is sadly missed every day.
So many great memories from so many of these stars. Loved all in the family! Loved Farrah Fawcett in the burning bed and small sacrifices she was a great actress! And Rodney don’t even get me started! Huge fan of him! Loved him in Easy Money! When I first saw it I cried laughing so hard! So many greats! I wish we could go back in time and have them all back again! They will be forever missed but never forgotten! True legends! Thank you for visiting and remembering all these stars that brought us so much joy!
I didn't know Carol Brady had passed...or Doris Roberts!!
We lost a LOT of greats in 2016. 😔
Joyce pj2457 Guevara yup
Yes we did! I also lost my father in 2016. Its been 4yrs 2month now and seems like it was just the other day. We spent alot of money on his grave and had the black granite headstone sent to Georgia to have stenciling done by an artist who worked for Disney. We also purchased him a black granite bench that sits at foot of his grave. He has best looking grave in the cemetery he is at . Something I'm so proud of my mother for doing. We aren't wealthy by no means so it was really special for her to do that
I didn't know Irwin Winkler was alive! :O
"I'm a writer, but then nobody's perfect!" 👌👌🤣
I came here for 7:12
RIP one of the nicest and kindhearted actresses of all time. Hope she can take a warm shower now.
We went to this cemetery in 2016 with the Dearly Departed Tours that Scott Michaels offers. Best tour ever! I have lots of pictures of me and my husband standing beside our favourite celebrities. We hope to go back there again in a couple of years. Great video! Best wishes from Niagara Falls Canada.
Carrol O'Connor was my boss for four years. He was a good man. He did a lot for my career.
Just wanted to add here how much I am enjoying your Famous Grave Tours. Very well taped, the narratives are very interesting and informative, and the video clips that are provided for most of the deceased are very clever and help to keep things a little more on the lighter side. Maybe sometime, you could include Billie Holliday and Karen Carpenter for a future Grave Tour? Keep up the good work - it's a lot of ground to cover and you do an awesome job!
This one had so many of the actors I hold dearly while I've watched television and film over my 59 years. Thank you.
I saw the first part earlier today, and this cemetery is filled with some of the greatest and most influential people that have ever lived. Farrah Fawcett played herself in one of my favorite shows, "Johnny Bravo". Also, I learned that she passed away the same day as Michael Jackson, but her death was overlooked, as the world was focused on his death. All of these people were so amazing. I know they're entertaining Heaven now.
A note on the George C Scott segment. The scene you showed of Scott (Paton) addressing his men in front of the giant flag, was the first scene in the movie. Actually it was the very last scene filmed.
Scott was a great actor. We'll probably never see the likes of him again.
Patton and Scrooge are my favorites
I just watched biography on Farrah Fawcett, she's sooo beautiful inside & out... 4ever in my heart ❤ ♥ 💓 💖 💙... ty 4 sharing❤❤❤🙏🙏🙏✝️✝️✝️😔💔
I didn't know Florence Henderson had passed away. I always enjoyed her role on the Brady Bunch. Now she is with her close friend Ann B David that played Alice on the Brady Bunch.
I always loved Rodney Dangerfield performances.
Favorite memory? Anything with Jack & Walter.
This video has the most celebrities that I know
Jack Klugman was brilliant on the OC, he certainly deserved a scene clip here. As did Doris Roberts, she was hilarious on ELR. And boy am I big fan of “O’Conner”, one of the best (if not thee best) versatile television actors ever .......
love your videos..as a big columbo fan is was lovely to see the resting place of peter falk. also to see where jack lemmon is buried was nice
So many wonderful stars gone!
Thank you for taking the time to edit this maaaarvelous post. I love the snip its of the actors/actresses movies or shows and the information you attach. I really love the presentation, your voice and your time. Peace on Earth and Love.
Your videos make me want to do something similar in my neck of the woods- Philadelphia. But, not necessarily for the famous. More for those who have done amazing things, and enriched others- so they may not be forgotten.
Have you even seen the man that cleans the grave stones of military veterans for free? Amazing. CBS Sunday Morning covered him.
Well .. 4 years later
Did you get your project off the ground yet ?
I watch your videos on my Firestick so I rarely comment. Your videos are amazing. I love that you dig deep into Hollywood (and beyond). Movies aren't made JUST by actors! Keep them coming! I am going to see if I can discover some famous people resting in peace here in Florida.
Your tours are fascinating! I don't feel morbid seeing these final resting places of beloved actors and actresses because it's done so respectfully. Lots of interesting info too.
this is the best iv seen done of famous graves .thanks
I passed by Brian Keith on Yorkville Ave. in Toronto a couple of years before he died. I was going to say hi but he seemed to want to be alone. I didn't want to bother him.
papermason Sad to think that his daughter committed suicide before he did. Must have pushed him over the edge
What I most remember about George C. Scott in Patton - from what I've heard, he did that Monologue - in 1 take!
BRAVO.
Arthur Dark, you're just so awesome!! Thankyou for these top quality, highly respectable and very interesting videos!!! ;)
Thank you Britt!
Es un recorrido muy bien ejecutado. Amenizado con mini reproducciones en cada tumba del personaje. Muy bien hecho.
Still can't believe Farrah Fawcett is gone and in that graveyard.Miss her and i cried when i heard she passed away.There'll be no more another Farrah Fawcett.
I love your videos ..so many people I didn't know passed
Walter Matthau will always also have a nice place in my heart for playing Lt. Garber in The Taking Of Pelham One Two Three (1974 version)
I once saw an interview with Janet Leigh and she said she was never able to take a shower after filming that scene.
She must have stunk to high heaven.
The Busterdog she could just have a bath 🤷🏽♀️
The Busterdog. I dunno why but this reply made me lmao when I saw it.
It was because of that twisted sob Hitchcock didn't alarm her and her reactions were partly genuine. She was initially aware that her character was gonna be murdered and it was supposed to happen in bed after the shower. But we all know how the "Notorious" master of thriller and suspense rolls.
jack lemmon will always have a special place in my heart
You should do an updated tour of Westwood! Kirk Douglass finally passed away at 103 in Feb 2020. It would be great to see an update
This far the best famous graveyard .you do amazing work.iI really like your voice on how you explain the people .it's in details
I really enjoy your channel. Thanks for not making it sad but upbeat! Looking forward to seeing more.
I really love these graveyard tours
I'm surprised Peggy Lee's epitaph wasn't, "is that all there is?" That was the title of one if her top hits. Listen to the song, you'll get the connection. '-)
"if that's all there is my friend, then let's keep dancing."
Westwood village is a fascinating little place; I've been there many times. If you go for a visit then best bring a map of the cemetery. There are many online which can be used to pinpoint certain graves.
I loved Doris Roberts in Grandma's Boy that was made by Adam Sandler. She played that role really well though it was a bad movie, its one of them its so bad, its good movies. Walter Matthau I really loved too. I loved Grumpy and Grumpier Old Men along with Jack Lemmon and Burgess Meredith. I especially loved Rodney Dangerfield and Carrol O Connor. May they all Rest in Peace.
I wouldn't call Grandma's Boy a bad movie. It's considered a cult classic now. It was one of those movies that was critically panned when it was released but now is a legend in it's own right. In a sea of stoner movies, it stands out for being well-cast and absolutely hysterical. Doris, Shirley Knight, and Shirley Jones steal the show though. ;)
My wife told me to take out the trash, I told her you cooked it you take it out. Fav of Rodney's thanks AD.
I loved George C Scott in " TAPS " it was a small role. But he played brilliantly.
I loved him in Firestarter. Maybe an over-the-top role but he played it brilliantly
Karl Malden, was so great as the Pastor in “Pollyanna”
For years , I was in ❤ with Jack Klugman , I thought he was everything 😊
I look forward to your videos! Amazing!
Nothing says that the famous and rich are touchable, human & just like us then death itself. 😢😭
May they all be at peace now & may they always live as legends in our hearts, memories & within each new year.
Forever may they never be forgotten & may their struggles & lessons always be taught to help & guide the rising stars.
George C Scott was a great actor. Does anyone remember him in a TV series called "East Side West Side" ?? He played a social worker, I believe. The series played during the late 50's early 60's as best I can remember.
I love this cemetery. Just a note that Alexander Courage, before television, was one of the main orchestrators/arrangers at MGM during their great musicals period.
Thank you for such a wonderful tribute to all these fine artists.
James Coburn such a great actor in "flicks" loke "Cross of Iron," "The Great Escape," (which his character was one of the lucky ones to get away, and in "Payback" thanks for finding & showing his final reating place
IM JUST CURIOUS TO KNOW IF YOU REALLY READ ALL THESE COMMENTS. IM 81 SO HEARING YOU SPEAK ABOUT THESE FAMIUS LEGENDS BRINGS BACK MEMORIES OF SUCH GREAT ACTORS ANND ACTRESSES. THANK YOU.
I love this :) how you tell their history and stuff
RIP to everyone in this video and Sage Moonblood Stallone (May 5, 1976 - July 13, 2012)(aged 36)
George C. Scott will always be my Paton, Ebenezer, and Beast.
I'm a fan of the Muppets and you just taught me something I didn't know about Ms. Piggy at 5:02 thanks! :D Now I have something I can share with my mom since she loves Frank Oz's characters lol xD
I like the swedish chef. And animal.
Alright, alright, alright! First time I have commented after watching many of your tours…this by far is my favorite!! Almost every person you mentioned is a favorite actor of mine from my childhood…the 1970’s, or they are my age…omg! Jack Clugman, Caroll O’Conner…just all of them! TY!
I have loved watching these clips of Hollywood Graveyard, this had to be best, just loaded with Hollywood finest
