    Thx to everyone for the support! : ) I am working hard behind the scenes searching for more vintage high quality material to post! I have recently monetized this channel with "fan funding" which will help in my efforts to add more pre-50's entertainment and content on a regular basis!

    Favorite On and off screen couple. i just love those two together. I wish Garbo would have married him they would have made a beautiful couple no matter how long it would have lasted.

    His voice was fine. Just in those days, the corny diagloge that stars were given would make even actors today flop. He was soooo handsome!

    The press was cruel. She did not give interviews so she made no comment at first, but when the press made things up, implying she was cold and cruel, she did comment. She was forced to comment on a very private matter. But the fact she did comment, shows how much he meant to her. Most of the time, she let mean remarks slide.

    It was specifically composed for this series by Carl Davis, and was used in the MGM-Thames Silents video release of Flesh and the Devil in the late 1980s. It is a gorgeous theme!

    To this day, Rudy remains as iconic as ever. No one ever will be the same.

    Special orchestral scores for films in the '20s were pretty rare. Most of the theater venues across the country usually had a piano, organ, or very small ensemble of musicians, all of varying musical ability, so a complex score would not have been widely usable. The scores were generally based on stock themes, and studios and distributors would send out cue sheets for musicians to work from.

    I don't have the name. But it was the theme song for a series on silent films called The Hollywood Series: A celebration of silent film, that was produced by Kevin Brownlow in the 1980s. Carl Davis did the music. Though this piece (which you also here reprised several times in the course of the program) sounds authentically like something from the early 1900s. Hope this helps.

    she found out he died while she was at a play. She left the play earily and avoided the press. So one reporter made up a story that she said of his death "and what is that to me." But she later said to another reporter breaking her rule of silence that she was saddened by the news about someone she cared deeply for.

    John Gilbert's daughter's biography of his life is a fantastic read. He was quite a guy. Garbo and Gilbert were true stars of cinema. I am not interested in most of today's actors and movies.

    John Gilbert was so handsome. As for Greta Garbo she's nothing special in the looks department. I thought she looked very masculine.
