She died 80 years ago today, but has never never been forgotten for those who love good movies. She was so funny and so very pretty. A kind and loving lady by all accounts. She was a pleasure to watch on screen. You still are Carole Lombard! Thank you for the films you left behind.

I think a lot of what Clark Gable became is owed to Carole Lombard. He protected a lot of people on his sets such as with "Gone With the Wind" when he threatened to walk off the set when Blacks weren't treated as equals.

No, Gable was groomed and mentored by first two older wives who were both wealthy. I loved Clark too but he lived off both of them. Without their help, not sure anyone would have heard of Gable. He was well situated as to his character by time he and Carole got together. This lovely couple disagreed strongly about politics. Gable was a staunch Republican. Carole adored FDR and a staunch Democrat.

@@MTknitter22 Gable's first wife, Josephine Dillon, taught him to act for the screen. She was not wealthy, she was an acting teacher. His second wife, Rhea Langham, was very wealthy. She financed Gable's starring role on Broadway, in "Machinal," which got him noticed in Hollywood. By the time Gable and Lombard were together romantically, he had already put his stamp on the movies and been crowned King of Hollywood. None of this had anything to do with Lombard's influence. Meeting her probably was the best thing in his personal life and for a few dizzy years, they had it all.

I love this documentary. I've always known Carole because of her hijinks, her rebelliousness and her marriage with Clarke Gable. But I like this angle of Carole. The selflessness, her kindness. And they all seemed genuine, not an act like most celebrities do.

Jean Harlow and Carole Lombard were said to be the 2 most beloved female stars in Hollywood. It is said everybody [except Mayer] loved both of them...from other stars to props people. How different it would have been had she lived? Gables life would have been longer....his drinking and his health declined after he lost Lombard.Only when he finally married Kay Williams did he get back on track. It is said that his 4th wife Sylvia Ashley, redecorated Carole's all white bedroom, designed by William Haines, and Gable sat in a field and cried. It was more or less the end of the marriage. I have over 2 dozen books on Gable and Lombard and I can recommend 'Gables Women" by Jane Ellen Wayne. I reread it every year!

Carole Lombard had such an interesting past, love her profound words after her accident, "Isn't it better to have a scare on your body than on your soul. Not like today's actresses where it's all about facelifts and botox where they all look the same, with no facial expressions or individual looks. Lombards era, the actresses looked individual each very different to look at, along with their past stories. Making them so more interesting.

Funny. I am a great fan of Classic Hollywood and don't like modern day movies as much but I have to disagree with you there: today's actresses look more individual than classic hollywood stars. Nowadays, more people are abandoning the beauty standards, there's more ethnic diversity in Hollywood and all body types are tolerated, actresses are making movies wearing little to no makeup. Actresses of the classic era adhered to a strict beauty standard, wore the same makeup trends, adopted a specific regimen that often neutralized their individuality, cosmetic/aesthetic surgery was also customary and so were eating disorders and "passing" (Merle Oberon). Marlene Dietrich often whined that Carole was copying her looks, I don't think she was though I just think Marlene's look had become a beauty standard by then and many others like Anna Sten and Toby Wing could be called Dietrich wannabes. There was also the Garbo standard and later the Lamarr. Hollywood worked by templates and now women are free to look whatever they want and of course compared to the classic hollywood counterparts, they show a great lack of effort.

Generally enjoyable, but this was far more about Bahai than Lombard. And while there's wonderful coverage of how generous and thoughtful she was, her relationships get short shrift. For example, while she and Gable had tremendous fun, he cheated, and many biographers say Lombard's decision to take that fateful flight had to do with his affair.
@BahaiConcepts
@BahaiConcepts 4 жыл бұрын
Thank you so much for your comment dear Diana. The purpose of the documentary was to talk about a not so well known side of Carole Lombard. As you noted most of the other biographies focus on her relationships so I felt there was no much need to dwell on them. I tried to keep it factual: the rumors of the reasons why she decided to fly, the coin toss etc. are not confirmed by anyone close to her, so I preferred not to mention them.
@jodi2847
@jodi2847 2 жыл бұрын
Many biographers also put forth solid evidence of Carole's insecurity and paranoia that made her convinced of a so-called "affair" that may never have happened. An admitted neurotic, she became jealous of younger women, especially co-stars like 21-year-old Lana Turner. Carole was pushing 30 when she married Gable and, moreover, kept trying and failing to have his child. Turner, who owned to a lot of sordid activity in her autobiography, denied any romantic involvement with Gable. It's very en vogue to pity poor Carole and point the finger at a rumored "womanizer" like Gable, when in fact women threw themselves at him far more than vice versa. Not saying he didn't have his share of lovers, but an affair while married to Lombard? Highly debatable and categorically unconfirmed. What is confirmed beyond a doubt is that he loved her deeply and was almost destroyed by her death.

This was a beautiful and well researched program about Carole Lombard. It was very admirable that she cared so much about others and learned the joy of serving others. God created us with an innate thirst to fulfill our spiritual nature, to find joy in serving others and in being a "joyful giver", so it is no surprise that Carole found this role so satisfying and such a source of fulfillment in her life. It truly is by God's perfect design! She certainly excelled at it more than most! There are many spiritual paths that embody such altruistic principals and motivate people to lead better lives. Unfortunately, this does not mean that they are a valid path to heaven. The Bible tells us that "Jesus saith unto him, I am the way, the truth, and the life: no man cometh unto the Father, but by me." This is the fundamental problem with many alternative faiths - rather than there being many paths to God, there is actually only one - by accepting Jesus Christ as your Savior. Jesus was tortured and died a horrific death on the cross to pay the sin debt for every person in the world. All we have to do is accept this most monumental free gift! Why is this necessary? Because every single person on earth is a sinner. We have all told a lie, we have all taken something (no matter how small) that didn't belong to us, we have all lusted after another in our hearts or even acted on it. Just compare yourself to the ten commandments and you can see for yourself. That's the problem because God is perfect and holy and CANNOT be in the presence of ANY sin! But because He loves us so incredibly much, He sent Jesus to earth as a man to redeem all men (and women). Jesus lived a completely sinless life (something we are not capable of doing) and died on the cross for me and you because the price of sin is death. Once we accept Him and what He did for us, we are saved and sealed with the Holy Spirit and WILL go to heaven when we die or in the rapture, whichever occurs first! It's not about what we DO in this world, it's ALL about whether we BELIEVE in Jesus Christ and what He did for US because He did it ALL on the cross! Jesus was asked, "...what shall we do, that we might work the works of God? Jesus answered and said unto them, This is the work of God, that ye believe on him whom he hath sent." John 6:28-29 There are many religious texts that say beautiful things and can strike a chord in our hearts, but did you know that the Bible is the only book in existence that is about 1/3 prophecy and of those prophecies that have been fulfilled, they have ALL been fulfilled to the letter! The odds of this are so astronomical to be statistically impossible by chance! There is one very good reason for this - the Bible is the truth! It was written by men who were inspired by the Holy Spirit which came from God Himself and God is completely omniscient! So please don't be deceived and don't wait a moment longer to accept Jesus as your Savior! He is not just one of many "prophets" or religious figures. He is God and He gave His very life for you, died, was buried, and rose again from the dead on the third day proving that He was successful in paying the sin debt for the entire world. In fact, His final words on the cross were "It is finished", which in the original language are legal terms that mean THE DEBT IS PAID IN FULL! The rapture is going to take believers out of this world at ANY moment and you don’t want to miss it! (See 1 Thessalonians 4:16-18.)

Good story. I did want to add that the driver of the car involved in the accident was not stopped at and hit by another car but rather lost control of the car and caused the accident. Carole sued the driver for $35,000 for her injuries but was awarded $3,000.00. Another item was that the very wonderful Carole used quite salty language in and around the studios and most of those that worked with her would say that “salty” was an understatement to say the least.

I fell in love with Carol in the movie, "To Be, Or Not To Be." She was so naturally funny!!! Taking on the gestapo stationed in Warsaw, Poland, and balancing a marriage and career with a very jealous stage husband, (played by comedian Jack Benny), and her affair and flirtation with a young lieutenant, (played by Robert Stack). She was a Hollywood queen at the height of WW2 and the movie industry. She had glamor, comedic timing, small town girl charm, and that all American girl next door war bond drive patriotic spirit. She grew up in a marvelous time in the 20's when movies were still in their infancy, but quickly evolving into talkies. She was blessed with a kind, loving, mother, who supported her daughter's acting career, not for the income or fame it could bring into the family, but how it made her daughter happy. She was one of those few starlets you felt you could meet at a diner in a department store and have coffee with, and she would be satisfied to visit with you. She was a Queen and married to the King, Clark Gable. She even sacrificed her career go on war bond drives. The day she was killed she raised 2 million dollars in a single afternoon selling war bonds in Indianapolis, Indiana. Her and Clark loved the outdoors. They hunted together, camped out under the stars, and raised a barnyard full of animals on their small Hollywood estate ranch. They truly loved life, and were grateful for everything God gave them. Whether it was a coin toss, or Carole just wanted to get back home early to Clark after her war bond drive, it doesn't matter, as we know she lost her life in a plane crash. Tragically immortalized as a young starlet forever in our hearts. We love you Carole!

A very interesting look at her background. She was a lovely and talented performer; the kindness and loyalty she displayed seems at a bit at odds with her coarse language and open affairs (most notably with the still-married Gable) but--it’s what’s in the heart that ultimately counts most.

A generally well-done biopic on Lombard, but also a not-so-subtle commercial for the Baha’i faith. All three people responsible for this video are members of the faith and, as such, have an innate bias in the telling of this story. This affiliation should have been noted for viewers.

Thank you dear Rich for your comment. I have kept the story factual, all the research is based on sources from published articles and books. The documentary focuses on a side of Carol life, her belief system, that is little explored in other biography and I have added a very brief info on what is her belief system as the Bahá’í Faith is not well know to some sections of the public. Of course I was interested to this side of her life because I am Bahá’í and I was interested in how she got to know about this Faith, how did it influence her, etc.

At around 6:30 there is an early picture of the LA and or California Baha'is and I think that's Thornton Chase on the far right behind the woman. He was a talk man, mustached, balding. More about him at en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thornton_Chase I'm not very familar with the area Baha'is but I know a couple names - Coopers? the Bosches? are they in the picture? Who else?

And as the saying goes, good people die young. Carole died at 33 on a plane crash which she was not suppose to board. She had so much more to give to all those who loved and adored her, but in the end God loved her more and she is now with the angels in heaven.😇

I shared this on Facebook *for the very true defining of what I know to be the "Actions that speak louder than words" and that being the "true definition of a Democrat" in all senses.* I find the works described here by Carole Lombard, as those which define a true Democrat today. In every sense her actions represent my definition and feelings of Democrat. No one can argue "how I feel nor what I define in my spirit, nor of it's modern and historic label". Ignore the spin, embrace the reality, and hold Thought as the very fact of what we experience in our individual and collective Human Reality. Choose "Thoughts" Wisely, they become that which You will experience. - Quantum Physics
