FAMOUS GRAVE TOUR - Forest Lawn Glendale #5 (Ethel Waters, Robert Taylor, etc.)

[@NocturnalBanshee]

A four-year-old girl's life cut short...my heart just aches for her. She deserved a better and way longer life.

[@dawnmorfett9718]

Thank you for visiting Natalie Cole again. Now with a beautiful marker for a beautiful and amazing woman. Miss you Natalie. Rest in peace. xxx

I’m 23 years old & im learning so much just watching theses videos. I love knowing we’re a lot of thing all started especially caption crunch it was alway one of my favorite cereals ever. I encourage a lot of people around my age to watch your videos so they can know we’re characters like Cinderella, Snow White, Mickey Mouse, tweety bird etc came from because I remember us 90s baby loving all these different characters but don’t even know were they came from & all started from

[@stardustreacts13]

R.I.P Caryll Ann Ekelund. This truly broke my heart upon seeing this. The music you used for her just made it that more heart retching.

[@donstarfinkel6456]

I'm not going to lie I thought this channel was weird at first glance, but the way you respect these people and honor their legacies is awesome brother, YOU ARE DOING A GREAT JOB

[@JillintheAir]

I totally agree! Well done!

[@veteranpatriot4474]

Mr. Dark, What I love most about your videos is it's not only the Star's that are remembered. You show us the Make up Artist, Wardrobe designer's , Directors, Set Builder's, Producers, Musical Director's and so forth. And as always you allow us not just a name and date, but some insight into the life of that person. Truly Educational, Enlightening and Inspiring. Again Thank you and as always God Bless.

[@IstandwithVPKAMALA]

Veteran Patriot yes I agree! So interesting! I’m hooked on these videos!

[@susanmiller959]

I am a huge Edith Head admirer. Her costumes were amazing!

[@MsAnimelady]

Edna Mode is my favorite Incredibles character. It was a treat to learn more about the real life fashion designer who was the inspiration for her character, and to see Ms. Head's grave marker. Thank you, Mr. Dark.

[@pam510]

R.I.P Caryll ann Ekelund 🌹🌹 that poor sweet 🍭 little girl God Bless her little soul! That's heartbreaking 💔

[@ilahildasissac1943]

I saw "The Bluebird" a few years ago. A very interesting film. I heard about the little girl's demise. I wonder if Shirley attended the funeral?

[@janineharrison5186]

As soon as I saw Edith Head's photo, I thought, she reminds me of a character I saw recently. Then you showed the character on Incredibles. How appropriate. Love how you include all the important people who were involved in making films. Bravo!

[@patriciajackson2565]

Thank you for showing Robert Taylor's marker. He's one of my favorite actors and Waterloo Bridge one of my favorite movies.

[@ladyarthuria]

Me too. He's underated actor i think, but he can compared with Clark Gable.

[@kimberlyshelton2602]

I love watching this. He does such an great job narrating each gravesite.

[@MrALLI36]

Caryll Ann Ekelund story gave me tears!

[@mikerot1968]

I always find myself thinking "I didn't know that" when I watch Hollywood Graveyard. Very cool.

[@blank_stare_productions]

I do that every time I watch these. =)

[@jamesnewman3340]

Graveyards are always peace and quiet well kept places!

[@lisachiappetti6092]

I know this is 3 years old, but I just discovered this channel like 3 days ago and I'm binging his videos lol. Anyway, peaceful and quiet, yes, absolutely. Well kept? Nope, not always. As much as you would hope that these places are well kept, the sad fact is, a lot of cemeteries, ESPECIALLY the old ones, are just not. It makes me sad, but the point is that you're half right. You should be all the way right, but unfortunately people suck sometimes, so you're not

[@Agslions]

Frank Nelson was a comic gem... a master at timing, wonderful voice and catchphrases. He was one of Jack Benny's favorites to work with.

[@luisalvarez23]

He was on Sanford an son at times also

[@csnide6702]

ee-yesss.....

Ethel Waters gave a brilliant performance in "A Member of the Wedding."

I always feel sad when the video ends. Because I don't know how long I'll have to wait for a new one! Stellar job as usual Arthur.

Rest in peace to all the stars xx

[@susangerwien1290]

Cabin in the sky is one of my favorite movies. Ethel Waters was wonderful in it. She had a lovely voice.

[@carolynbonang2254]

This was awesome. You were basically on my husband as he is 2 placques away from Blossom Rock. My entire family has worked there. Parents retired here. Beautiful place. We were all married there also. Thank you for sharing this with the world. I'm in Florida now so it was was nice to visit hubby. Thanks again.

[@edithfisher4098]

I remember watching the Academy Awards and how often Edith Head would receive an award,( s). I loved it because we shared the same first name of Edith.

[@JOYOUSONEX]

Robert Alda also starred along with his son Alan in a MASH episode.

[@NeptuneRising70]

That guy who did the "EEYESSSS?" was the best!

[@billyrodriguez1878]

I never get tired of waiting and watching your videos. If ever there be Tony for U tube, you would win , better said earn, various.

[@raymondgallardo576]

Hi again Arthur! I want to point that 19 years before The Jolson Story, William Demarest appeared with the real Al Jolson in The Jazz Singer. He shook hands with Jolson's character Jakie Rabinowitz (a.k.a. Jack Robin) before he sang Dirty Hands Dirty Face and Toot Toot Tootsie. Thanks for understanding!

[@MegaBruce57]

I really appreciate the host of Graveyard. Very professionally done with a great candor of commentary.

[@ladyayako7195]

Caryll Ann. . .Oh, my heart. One of my favorite child actresses. Blue Bird was one of my favorite movies. RIP Beautiful girl. She was definitely an upcoming huge movie star like Shirley Temple. So, so sad.

[@davidnelson5474]

I think its great how you reintroduce many of Hollywoods famous including the behind the scenes innovator's of Motion Pictures. Many who have been forgotten. I really enjoy your video commentary. Thanks. Looking forward to many more.

Carryl Ann's story is heartbreaking She could have been a rising star just like Shirley Temple RIP Sweet girl xxx

[@psychcorp4449]

On a hot day, it is so cool to watch this video. The various views starting off are greatly appreciated. The marker for Natalie Cole was well worth the wait. It is a work of art unto itself. I hope Mr. Dark realizes that his work just keeps getting better and better. Thank you for an exquisite video.

[@deborahklinlger8565]

Her marker ls beatiful 😍 as was her & her dad's music. I use to listen to her in my teens 🎉❤😊. Ty Mr. DARK.😊

[@paul8192]

I just have to say after a hard's day work, your videos with associated soundtrack are very relaxing and soothing, great job and I'm glad I found your channel.

[@Lukea472]

Thanks for visiting Joe Grant. His story for "Der Fuehrer's Face" won an Academy Award

[@paulyoung7372]

Arthur, keep bringing the memories of our favorite movie, TV and entertainers back to us. Thank you for showing the respect they well deserve.

[@Endorill]

Mr. Dark, you must be a research champion.

[@rickhuck64]

I'm hooked on these now. You have a calm clear voice and explain interesting little information/trivia about the deceased actor or performer.

[@williamwhite2113]

You put a lot of work in finding these resting places and I like that you mention stars from the silent era as well. Gone but not forgotten especially in your videos. Thanks.

[@RhettyforHistory]

That's sad on the little 4 year old girl. Wonder if that's why costumes say fire retardant? Interesting on Borden too.

[@brianleonard7120]

Yes maybe so , in those day,s product,s wasn't good too much and had no federal regulation,s, so sad indeed.

[@TheScarlett618]

The part about her being related to Lizzie Borden isn't true - as her real last name wasn't even Borden : michaelgankerich.files.wordpress.com/2011/11/olive1.png?w=788

Love how you slowed down to let us see the scenery as well. Thank you!

[@MyListen2me]

This series is amazing. I love watching these. Cemeteries really are wondrous places packed with history, art & architecture and all of it on beautiful grounds. I'm learning many things I didn't know via your tours, thanks for that.

[@scottcarroll9201]

Did you visit the niche of Bob Burns? He was a veteran of WWI and radio and film comedian of the 30s and 40s. He often played a hillbilly character and played a musical instrument of his own design he called a "bazooka." The army named its shoulder fired rocket launcher in honor of his invented instrument.

[@FreddyFazbearGamer2006]

I’m so exited when I get a notification from Hollywood Graveyard!

[@hollywoodharriet13]

I was thrilled that you included Forrest Ackerman! Really enjoying your videos.

[@83thechaz]

Forrest Ackerman loves “Forr-est Lawn”. And how appropriate this legend is buried alongside his wife Wendayne in the wall of crypts. Like he always said, “Who dares disturb the sleep of the Ackermonster.”

[@hollywoodharriet13]

@@83thechaz Forrest Ackerman opened his house to tours where a friend and I visited after seeing the Huell Howser segment on him. After to the tour we were treated to stories and were able to ask him questions and of course, take pictures and get his autograph. A gracious gentleman. So sad about his Wendayne.

[@brettshears]

5:25 has to be arguable the saddest and slightly creepy moments in any of these videos, the way the singing echoes into the distance. RIP Caryll

[@ba55bar]

have watched all of the videos on this channel. have to admit i'd never heard of a good chunk of the people that are covered but now i do and am also informed on who they were and what they accomplished. top work. look forward to more

[@larrymuniz4115]

Oh Awesome!! Forrest J. Ackerman. Thanks for finding him, I was going to request him, I met him ‘87-‘88 I was helping a friend filming his collection of some of the greatest things I have ever seen, he had a story for everything he had, I still have the VHS tape. He took us all out to lunch, and gave me and my girlfriend at the time $20 bucks, he wanted it to go a engagement ring, and it did, not long after.

[@brianleonard7120]

Thank,s for the update on the marker for Natelie Cole, My sole weep,s for her everytime I see and here, the most captivating eye,s that capture my soul so very deeply.. i JUST STILL CAN'T EXCEPT HER BEING GONE..

Billy Barty also played Gwildor in Masters of the Universe - the live action movie version of He-Man alongside Dulf Lundgren (He-Man), Frank Langella (Skeletor) and Meg Foster (Evil Lyn). Gwildor was the character who invented the Cosmic Key which enabled He-Man and Skeleton and their allies to travel to Earth. Detective Hugh Lubic was played by James Tolkan who is famous for playing Mr Strikland in the Back to the Future films.

I thought the same thing. Halloween, a day for children and fun and that happens, it's heartbreaking. Then I thought wtf...how does this happen that a little 6 year old catches fire and nobody notices in time to save her???

Yes that was tragic

Arthur, you're the BEST!!!! My FAVORITE was the 'Edith Head' STONE (Get It?)!!!! I'm glad that she's under a tree.

Sad when clips are used as tribute to stars and probably would be forgotten without programs like yours. Please know it's appreciated the work you put into these. All of these people are fascinating.

[@barbarakays3986]

Another thoroughly enjoyable video. Thank you Arthur!

[@nancybennett9265]

I don't comment on your videos as I usually watch KZbin on my television. But today I'm on the tablet. Just wanted to say I enjoy your videos. You are respectful and kind towards all these people.

You Almost Made Me Cry When You Visited That Little 4 Year Old Girl =(

[@ilahildasissac1943]

I think " The Bluebird" is one of the few films where Shirley does not play a sweet girl,but is a little bratty.

[@rebekahashe4023]

Thank you for showing the statues, artwork, etc. You mention in a lot of videos how lovely it is, and its nice that you are including it as well, as that's part of the setting. Loving the videos, good information, neat tidbits! Thanks, and please keep making more! 😊

[@BeachsideHank]

*Edith Head;* those dark work glasses she wore eventually became her trademark, but they were not sunglasses, the were specially made contrast & corrective lenses which allowed her to see beforehand in real time what her designs would look like after filming. She was so used to wearing them that she hardly ever took them off during the working day.

[@candysmith8724]

Edith Head made a huge mark on the film industry with her dress designs for the actresses. I've seen documentaries on this lady. M. Monroe loved her designs too! Interesting about Olive Borden, she looked like a beautiful woman in her day. The actress who played the grandmother in the Munsters...Wow she was a bombshell redhead when she was a young actress! The Ackland little girl...that story is horrible about the Halloween accident. I remember halloween costumes being fire resistant in the 70's, but obviously this happened way before this. RIP little angel...life was cut way too short for her.

Never stop making these videos! (Well.. If you want to. Lol)

I love that background music

[@chuxtuff]

Me too. I don't even know the name of the (very catchy) tune (that to me even sounds like old Hollywood) but I've caught myself humming a couple of them. What does that mean besides I must be getting old?? Good music is good music?? And there's good music here. I know and have seen his name (and that he's back in Europe studying) although I can't spell his name either (Music by Giuseppe Vasapolli - thanks for posting that Mr. Dark). But he's talented enough that I'm thinking we'll be seeing (I mean hearing) more of him (and maybe on the big screen?) in the future. So we'll be waiting for more great Hollywood Graveyard music too!!
