It still boils my blood seeing how Judy Garland was treated, how I felt was like John Wick getting angry when a bunch of thugs broke into his house to steal his car and kill his puppy.

Hitchcock was a genius, but it's a shame that he had no qualms about traumatising his actors for the sake of a scene.

It’s really tragic that women were forced to have abortion because of the company or contracts

[ElizabethMcCormick-sn]

Carrie Fisher was right about the similarities between the scandal involving her parents and Elizabeth Taylor and the Brangelina scandal!

[Avatar]

Two words: Natalie Wood! Her death is still unexplained.

[karynbricks]

I think you should add Frances Farmer to your list... what was done to her was so awful ... and no one talks about it.

Loretta Young didn’t have an affair. She was assaulted.

[carlylemon]

idk if it’s technically old hollywood but i’m constantly surprised that people don’t talk about what happened with Kirk Douglas and teenage Natalie Wood…keeps me up at night

[kleine.]

2:22 to 2:25 that didn't help Macaulay Culkin or a few other of the young actors that I can't think of at the moment

By the way North By Northwest is one of his best films.

[DreamBelief]

A major problem today is that laws around child labour, the Jackie coogan law etc don't apply to kids appearing in videos on YouTube etc. They have no protections

[samuelcollantes]

Happy thursday afternoon, Phoebe, take care and God bless you. Greetings from Colombia to you as well

[Tayyyyyyo]

Marilyn’s flame did not burn out. It was smothered far before it’s time.

4:46 This looks like a job for detective Monk

[douglasmijangos]

So great to see Biograhics on here 😂 I love his channel ❤

[daltonodom]

This is the type of tv show that I need! An HBO or Paramount show on early Hollywood!

[kershabeaver]

Hollywood and the music industry have been shady decades

[slep_healing]

Ingrid Bergman’s unnecessary criticism of her affair is a lesson that the media never learned as that has happened to people once again like Britney Spears. REALLY! No one is learning enough of lessons from human history.

the way Judy garland was treated makes me so angry and sad, i watched wizard of oz, and i thought she looked great,
