A fine video on one of the greatest vaudeville and silent film stars. Hadn't realized that she remained very popular to the end of her life in the early 30s.

Bless Marie for aiding black travellers, who could not stay at white premises where they worked or performed - even had to know safe spots to bunk down. This 🇨🇦 Canadian is proud of her.

This Doc mentions that Marie Dressler helped a young Mack Sennett but fails to mention she told Senette to talk to her lawyer up in Boston about introducing him to some producers. the lawyer's name was Calvin Coolidge.

Marie also served Marilyn Monroe as a strong example. MM, asked how she saw her later career (tragicay lost to us), talked of becoming a character actress "like Marie Dressler."

Why is there no organization of any of the photos in any of your videos? Do you just throw them up when you find them%?

Funny that the 1st four Best Actress Oscar winners were Canadian. Gaynor, Pickford, Dressler and Shearer.

That is not Marie Dressler with an Oscar! That is Norma Shearer with her Oscar for Best Actress winner for The Divorcee!!

Great actress, however first of all, so called "Marie Dressler" wasn't her real name. There was nothing wrong with his actual birth name, Leila Marie Koerber. Most likely the change was made as the result of a greedy Studio or Business Manager, with perceived notions of greater recognition accompanied with monetary gains? In reality, it's also shows blatant disrespect for one's parents & their family heritage, just to possibly obtain (not earn) a greater buck?! The ONLY reason a name change should be done, is for a woman when she gets married. If a woman gets married and DOESN'T change her name, then she doesn't accept the sanctity of marriage or respect for her husband.
