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.

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.

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!

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 just love Jerry Skinner’s voice. His in depth knowledge is astounding because he tells the WHOLE life story of not just the wonderful actor but his parents, family, relationships and even illnesses and accidents that would be exaggerated or trivialised if you read it elsewhere. Thanks very much Mr Skinner.

Found this strictly by accident, but as a fan of the King, and a "dabbler" in theater and film , I couldn't resist seeing this. One of the best done bio's I have ever seen, starting with the soft, mellifluous, respectful, down to earth voice, and delivery of the narrator. So good I couldn't resist sharing it and commenting on it.

He died 61 years ago today. What an actor he was! He could do it all. Comedies(look at all those film in the 30s) Drama(the films of the 40s and 50s). He won 1 Oscar, but should have won 3. He should have got it for Gone With The Wind and for the Misfits, the last film he did. You were so good Mr. Gable! It is a pleasure to watch you on the screen. Thank you for all those films you left behind.

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.

Mr. Skinner, Thank you for lending us your knowledge of all the movie stars you profile. I grew up in So. Cal. in the 60's &70's and I met several movie stars in my little town of Santa Paula. Ernest Borgnine-a very nice man. James Garner. Kirk Douglas. Steve McQueen & Ali McGraw. Sylvester Stallone. Erik Estrada. Clete Roberts a highly respected news reporter from the 50's-70's. Dana Elcar-of "McGuyver" fame who was another very nice man and Bill Lucking- a major character actor. Dana and Bill actually lived in Santa Paula. As you well know, these stars are just people like the rest of us.They have the same ups and downs, pains and joys as we all do. Your efforts in presenting their life stories is appreciated. Thank you Mr. Skinner

Not all marriages are due to being passionately in love with the other person.

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.

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! ❤️

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.

I lived through Elizabeth Taylor's life with her, as she was not that much older than I. She seemed to "have it all ", Looks, stardom, a loyal following, money to " burn". and anything she wanted! She was probably the most unhappy woman in the world! She had 8 husbands, whom she obviously married without much previous thought, and dropped them the same way! On to the next. She lived many lives in her one lifetime. I don't know anyone who would change places with her for ten minutes!!! Something had to be very wrong with her mind. This was the most concise and accurate summary of her life that I have ever seen. Well done!

Gail Snyderman Newberg Hi Gail, Your post reminds me of when I saw Who's Afraid of Virginia Woolf for the first time in the 90s. I knew Liz and Richard were on again off again Hollywood royalty but that's it. I also knew a little about Virginia Woolf. Just a little. So I was curious. Was it going to be artsy or literary? heh heh... The other thing is I had just separated from my wife with a young child involved. Very turbulent time. I was gutted. So because I like nostalgia I rent this from the library with no idea. It blew me out my socks! 😲 It had the effect of a horror movie on me. Almost all of my mates seemed to have been separated from a wife or girlfriend with a young child involved around that time... So I play this for a buddy. Tough guy. Blew him out the water too. We talked about it for days. Powerful acting and stark cinematography. They put almost too much of themselves into it. lol ☺

I liked so many actor's work but I actually just adored and loved Clark Gable. He had sex appeal, was so manly and fascinating. As the years have passed, knowing what I now know, I still adore him and what an actor. Gone With The Wind was and is one of Hollywood's best productions ever and what would it be without Rhett...not much ! I miss him very much. He was the "stuff" dreams are made of ! Thank you for putting this together for our joy !
