Dean Martin would dine at the restaurant that I worked at in Century City. It was Yamato's. He would be with his date. He would have two champagne cocktails, and that's all. When another person would open his tatami room door. Dean Martin would pretend to be drunk. His drinking on his show was apple juice. I've read books about him, pretending to be drunk. It was part of his act. He was a very talented actor and singer. He was always so nice, to let people disturb him on a date. When his son Dino died . It broke his heart. So R.I.P. Dean and hope that you're with Dino and the rest of your family that have died.

Contrary to what people say, Dean Martin was a teetotaler. His family confirmed that it was even rare that he would have a beer maybe once every few years. All the 'alcohol' he was ever seen with was Coca-Cola, tea, or something else innocuous. It was all for appearances since Frank Sinatra was a heavy drinker and would say he couldn't trust anyone that didn't have a drink in their hands.

It's actually 10% make it three years without a relapse.
@somexp12
@somexp12 5 ай бұрын
That percentage is definitely not accurate, and it's probably wrong in both directions. First, that 3% is probably only measuring how many of a certain number are still sober after a certain amount of time (maybe a year or two), meaning many of that 3% probably relapse later on. On the other hand, that 3% is probably only measuring the success rate of a group who quit at a specific moment in time. It doesn't account for those who later attempt to quit again. Probably half or even much more than this have success eventually, and then some of these go back, and then most of these quit again. Most people, in any event, stop eventually. Anyhow, I think we set ourselves up for a morbid evaluation by using absurd criteria. Someone quits for 5, 10, or 20 years, and establishes a family, career, and partially built nest egg. Then they get drunk, and we're all expected to declare, "ohhh, woe to them! All those years were for *nothing!"* At this point, everyone (including the drinker) starts waiting for this person to "hit bottom," which is a mythical phenomenon in which a drinker must destroy everything in life before they can then rally their resolve to rebuild everything all over again. Now, we have a self-fulfilling prophecy that demands they completely wreck everything they've acquired, judging that, without sobriety, its all valueless anyways (wth!). Everything needs to be sacrificed on the altar of "permanent sobriety." Even if they're only relapsing for a few days every few years, everything they achieve prior to "permanent sobriety" is to be regarded as fool's gold. According to this insane thinking, it would be much better for them to go all out and destroy it all with this relapse in order to produce a state of "surrender" than for them to come to their senses, mitigate the damage, and leave open *any* possibility of ever relapsing again.

A lot of partiers here but I don't think any of them quite destroyed themselves from solely alcohol as young as Gail Russell, dying just 36. A lot of them definitely seemed to have crazier lives in general while Gail was a heavy introvert (also a mostly forgotten actress TBH) so not as 'interesting' to read about, but I think she deserves the #1 spot just for dying the youngest from just this one thing.

Alcohol abuse ravages your looks too. You can look at Errol Flynn spoiled his handsome face, he died when he was 50, but looked like he was at least 20 yrs. older. Ava Gardner ruin her beauty with alcohol. What about Frances Farmer ,alcohol and too many lobotomies, ruined a great talent. Alcohol ruined many faces and great talents. It's so sad that alcohol took too many from us.

There is a story Olivia deHavilland told about Flynn. She was at a party and someone tapped her on the shoulder. When she turned around she saw this old man whom she did not recognize. Taken aback, he said, "Olivia, it's me...Errol!" She was shocked how aged and bloated he looked. Alcohol devastates the body and all the organs. No wonder these ppl died at 50...they were embalming themselves with alcohol, drugs, and nicotine while still alive. Horrible. That said, Hollywood can be a cruel and extremely competitive place and everyone pays for that in one way or another -- alcohol, drugs, smoking; being sexually or physically abused or doing the abusing. It is a high pressure business like being in a pool with piranhas, and I really would not be able to deal with all the crap that goes with just making a film. It is so much more than memorizing lines and showing up on the set to act. It's the publicity, over-attention to your appearance, weight, physical strength, travel, living accommodations, foreign film locations that may be extremely hot or cold, late nights, very early mornings, etc. Yoga, massage, rehab...just one thing after another. If you want a high risk life be an actor!!!

Despite all the comments about Dean Martin, I feel I must add one more. When I was young I lived in Bernardsville, where the TD Band was headquartered. Dean and Frank would attend card parties next door to where I lived. Some Friday night, Saturday mornings I could look out my bedroom window and see Dino carrying Frank out to the car so they could leave the party. Dean's actual drink of choice was Martinelli's sparkling cider, which I myself indulge in occasionally, and I quit drinking alcohol back in the 1980's.

I really believe Elizabeth Taylor's drinking was to numb her pain going back to her horse riding accident (at 12) while filming National Velvet. Back pain is really bad, I have it myself, and though I don't drink, I seek therapeutic coping mechanisms for it. I admire her for tackling it head on, and Betty Ford for helping pave the way with the center she started, and removing the stigma of seeking help when you need it. If nothing else good came as a result of Watergate, it was Mrs. Ford becoming the right First Lady at the right time.

Roach had a hunch about Josie as he was casting a weekly sitcom about a wealthy widower Vernon Albright played by Charlie Farrel, his on and off again girlfriend roberta Townsend played by Hillary Brooke and and his daughter Margie Albright played by gale Storm. This evening tv sitcom ran for several years in the early 1950's and after My Little Margie, Gale Storm went to O Susanah with Zazu Pitts as Nugie. Gale Storm played the part of an entertainment director and lounge singer on a cruise ship. After O Susanah Gale faded out of the spotlight and due to her alcoholism was the spokeswoman for Raleigh Hills an alcohol - drug rehab facility and finally found sobriety after many years.

The WW2 generation took the brunt of their times in the forms of Alcohol and cigarettes. It got them thru the worst of times and experiences when they were young and tormented them when they got older. The poor Russians don't even have that hope, it is killing them all while they are still young then and now . What a waste.

When showing photos of the person being talked about, use the right photos! With John Barrymore, you showed a photo of his son John Jr. with a moustache and beard also you showed Christopher Plummer at the end of the segments regarding John Barrymore!!

Poor, old Broderick Crawford. he actually lost his driver's license in the State of California due to one of those DUIs. But I take it he was loyal to people he'd known along the way to his successes. My grandmother was remarried to Ray Hunt, a property master at Columbia ranch since it's inception. She had a Christmas card Broderick had sent her one year and she kept it and put it back up on her wall each year. It was Christmas season, 1976 when she had climbed up the ladder to put said card up when she had a heart attack, collapsed from the ladder and was dead before she hit the floor. No matter, imagine what he must've meant to the family that she hung on to such card for all those years? Her husband had been forcibly retired in Dec., 1960/died in 1961. So I imagine the card had been sent a few years before that. What I do remember/and was later told, was that nearly everyone smoked and drank during the golden years of Hollywood. It wasn't a matter of condoning it; that's just what people did. And for those who had more money, I imagine further experimentation was also available. rl

That guy talked so fast I couldn't understand him even when I was a kid. He kinda reminded me of William Bendix with that same kinda down trodden persona.

And that's not John Barrymore at 33:57, that's Christopher Plummer. That picture was probably taken more than 50 years after Barrymore died.

I think Oliver Reed was the "KING" of drunks in Hollywood. And is it a surprise that he hung around with Harris, and O'Toole!

Dean Martin was not a drinker. The drink jokes were part of his on-stage schtick. He drank apple juice most of the time.

Too many of these actors are damaged before they get in front of a camera. Many have self esteem issues, which leads to other poor choices!
