You were kucky...

Yes indeed ! I am surprised that Clifton Webb, Monty Clift & Charles Laughton were not included in this tribute. Perhaps they ran out of time....

Apparently he was too

Sal Mineo

Until his automobile accident.

@Joe Home He was no Rondo Hatton in the looks dept, but I must admit he indeed was one handsome chap !! Did you know he had agreed to portray Joe Gillis in the 1949 classic "Sunset Blvd" (the studio - Paramount - had him under contract) but he backed out at the last minute, giving Bill Holden was one his most iconic roles !

American Dreamer Still is ,great/ good performances are eternal ...

It was rumored when he was stabbed to death in a Hollywood alley back in the early 1970's, that his "lifestyle" had something to do with it. Sad, because he was one of the finest young actors of the 1960's.

@@birdsfan57 I didn't hear that one. Don Johnson was just starting out in Hollywood and was in a play with Sal Mineo I read.

Just 2 days ago I watched on Amazon prime: Krakatoa: East of Java, Sal Mineo was so cute in that film! Also featured is Maximilian Schell! Talk about a handsome male! I had a crush on Maximilian Schell even as a teenager! What a man!

Diane Sal was a hugely charismatic actor& genuinely talented ,He certainly deserves to be walking amongst us and acting / directing / producing....

I argee with you xxx

Your cat soooo cutie

My mum would have known the actors

Back then the quality of the person is what counted. Not the "I'm gay and you have to like me - in your face" as they do today.

@Redx Are you gay?

Ironside Gay 😳

I thought the same thing. Also Raymond Burr....

He was also in that great movie with the Rat Pack, Oceans 11. Must have been difficult for gay actors in Hollywood’s Golden Age, but probably no secret at all to industry colleagues. I didn't know Hollywood had so many.

Geoff Rae Me either. How about Cary Grant and there’s a ‘ few ‘ more!

@@Melinda8162 And Cary Grant was married 5 times. In those years behind the glitz and the glamour of the film industry a lot of stars - men & women - due to social pressures and for the sake of their careers, they had to keep their sexual identities a secret.

That's a pretty good way of looking at it but we all know how people really are, they'll make excuses to overlook things like this when it involves their own race and they may like the individual as well, on the other hand, crucify another person for the same act basically out of hate for that race overall and lie and say they're all that way, , their approval or disapproval doesn't come from truth or wanting right or judging fairly but rather from their hate and racism and that's just the truth that I've noticed about how many people operate.

Santino Williams .........huh?

Their orientation was a separate matter.

Absolutely, They were still human beings.

@milster ......what?

I for one don't believe that Cesar was gay. He cared for all of his family members via his Hollywood career, and no one ever came forward to claim the crown of his male lover.

And Tyrone Power's intimate.

😅😂yea looks like most men are or were gay 😂😂

He’s also the only one I didn’t know....however a couple I never heard of.

RancherBabe he played The “original” Joker on the Batman tv series when I was a kid.

He was Jose Marti's grandson

@Anna Maria...I loved to see him dance, the equal of Fred Astaire, for sure. I didn't get my secret wish to see him in a paso doble with Lena Horne, both beautiful human beings.

From what I read he was actually quite open about it. I think at some point he accepted he was never going to be 'the leading man', and figured as a character actor it wouldn't affect his career so much, and people would just hire him anyway, and he was somewhere between less than 'discreet' and comfortably relaxed about it. He was also fairly rampant IIRC.

Eugenio Mingione it will never be left alone if you believe in Jesus He died so we might be forgiven of our sins if we only believe and ask for forgiveness. HE IS Real.

@@PB-ho6dm We do not need to ask Jesus for forgiveness for being born gay. Jesus could have been born gay if Heavenly Father saw fit. (Frankly, we do not know if that might have been true.) I only know that after an 18 year marriage and four children, I came to the reality that I was born gay and could not wish it away no matter how hard I prayed!

@@PB-ho6dm Those of us that belong to Jesus( sheep) arose with him, when he arose from the dead. Jesus, called our name, all the way up through history( including those all the way back through history, from Adam and Eves time) and until the last person on earth) "the works were done before the the foundation of the world". "The Lord knows those that are his". God knew/knows that in 1942, a little girl was going to be born; and that her name would be called, Frances ( me) so named from her mothers womb. God bless you.It is Jesus, that ALLOWED us to hear his voice.

@777davey 1. Sin is in the eye of the beholder. God is our Father and His eyes are eyes of love. He creates each of us for His purpose. The whole concept of sin is a ridiculous simplification of life and a relic of the Middle Ages where God was a God of fear and not a God of love. 2. Life is about love, not sin! 3. God loves us with the love of a Father who loves His children and understands the difficulties we have in living out our destinies. 4. Eternal damnation is a creation of narrow-minded people who wouldn't know the parameters of love and don't recognize the way love works in all of our lives. There was no gayness in my past family and why I was born gay is in the hands of God, not in the narrow-minded hands of people like you who see everything through eyes of judgement. God is not a judge. He is the Creator God and love creates. Love does not punish. Our society does not accept gay people because of people like you whose head is buried in the sands of the Middle Ages.

@777davey I don't know what Bible you are using, but the Bible most people read does not dwell on sin, does not dwell on Hell, but gives a message of hope and salvation to all, not just to the sinless. God sees us as His children and would any Father act toward their children like you picture God acting: a dispassionate judge, a heartless parent? No! God is not a divider. He is a uniter. When you focus on sin, you are dividing people and reinforcing your false sense of holiness! How do you know that "I stubbornly refuse to clean up my sin"? I live a sinless life and refuse to let people like you do what ignorant and short-sighted people do: act like they are God and have the power to judge everyone without knowing the circumstances and the facts. Just because I admit to being gay does not mean I am automatically living in sin. I was born gay and wouldn't have been born this way unless God wanted it so. Get over it! Your Middle Ages conception of life is due for an update! By the way, this is my last reply! I pray for you!

Joan Crawford was the first to commission him to decorate her home. With that he was off and running. Joan knew talent (whatever the type) when she saw it.

Of course Mayer DID eventually give up his wife ... she went on to become a very successful Broadway producer. He went on to philandering and being deposed in the early 50's.

Bullshit on Dean. Being a casting couch victim or bisexual doesn't mean gay. No one thinks Sir Lawrence's marriages were just arranged affairs or didn't involve genuine feelings. But some gee-ah-zays have to project, project, project.

Agreed!

I heard that many years ago about Raymond Burr. He was a very good actor! 💜☮️

Rock Hudson's maid stated that Rock Hudson like Blonds! His last boyfriend was a blond! I have a gay female cousin they used to frequent a West Hollywood gay nightclub and she told me that she used to see Rock Hudson there! By the way Rock and Gomer never married. That was BS!

The only negative is that the mini-series was false! It came from someone's imagination.

@@diane4537 Not only weren't they ever married, but they avoided being in the same place because of the rumors. Funny they didn't mention the gay actresses too.

@@markcadieux3445 Hi Mark! My bother in law used to work with Hal Smith the actor that played the drunk on the Andy Griffin show. My brother in law said that Hal Smith would insist Gomer and Rock were married! Yes I heard that they would try to never be seen together! Kathrine Hepburn was gay. The Hepburn/ Spencer Tracy romance was pure hog-wash invented by the studio to throw off fans about Hepburn. Spencer Tracy was also bisexual. Scotty Bower the pimp wrote that Hepburn would have Scotty find her girls for her pleasure. It's in his book.

Yet every one of these wonderful people's true souls shone through. Talent is all that matters.

That's true.

---The biggest success of postmodern feminism has been the virtual eradication of masculinity. In leftist circles, even the very words men and man have been for all intents and purposes banned, to be replaced by that trivializing gender-free term "GUYS"

@@photo161 one hundred percent agree

Maybe while the cameras were rolling. I heard that once the cameras were off Perry Mason actor Raymond Burr would instantly go into full blown gay mode. Hitting on extras and crew.

Are you an actor!

Just getting started

I'm one of them, and I'm not flamboyant. I spend a lot of time at home watching videos of gay actors of yestertear.

The new, thoroughly researched biography of Cary Grant by Scott Eyman debunks the never-proven rumors about Scott and Grant.

There is no evidence that they were lovers , it is unverified gossip.

Just because 2 people of the same sex share a home doesn't make them gay!

But their private life is what makes them who they are. If they happen to be beautiful as well why not compliment them. 🙂

Well it's interesting everyone needs an identity in this stupid society now so stupid society now so you can't just be an American you have to be gay is the American you have to be gay or trans or black or Hispanic or when is actor Hispanic or whatever not just American and that's what divided again and that's what divides this country

@@zouzoupelle I don't care about "who they are." I don't want to hear it. Just act and if I want to see them in a movie I'll pay for it and then go home after and forget about them.

@@treywest268 Victor was amazing.

He truly was! Even on his recurring role on the TV show "Taxi" as Jim Ignatowski's father he was great! It is funny because Victor Charles was only within a few years of an age difference from Christopher Lloyd. The saddest episode was when the character Jim's father died. It is well worth looking for. I believe that is how the handled the death of Victor Charles too. He is buried I the same columbarium as his Mom. His grave is unmarked. Hollywood Graveyard has covered it in one of their videos. They have a lovely spot overlooking a pond at the cemetery.

I've said the same thing from a male standpoint about some of Hollywood's Lesbian Actors!😉

Darn! You shouldn't have rejected all those hetero Hollywood celebrities who wanted to date you.

Rock Hudson was actually bi-sexual and had many female lovers over the years and even fathered at least 2 children possibly three from different mothers. Check out the latest detailed and investigated biography on Rock by Mark Griffin 2018, "All That Heaven Allows". Its brilliant and shows the difficulties of his life from his father's abandonment, his step-fathers physical abuse and the tragedy of the closet by blackmailers who wanted to expose him, including his ex-wife Phyllis Gates.

@@truthjustice5446 His ex-wife did no such thing and the rest of your garbage is just rumors---stop with the lies, you have no proof.

paul newman??? you dont know what you are talking about

Marlon and Wally Cox, Marlon and French actor, Christian Marquand…Brando’s oldest son was named after Marquand, and there might have been a thing with Farley Granger. Brando, himself, admitted that he’d had relationships with other men.

@@teresalinton5898 “He (Paul Newman) had passionate affairs with James Dean, Tony Perkins and Sal Mineo. He also had an affair with the former child star Brandon de Wilde that lasted three years. And he had an intermittent affair with actor John Derek throughout the Sixties (spanning Derek’s marriages to Ursula Andress and Linda Evans). But the most shocking passage in the book concerns Newman’s tortured relationship with his son by his first marriage, Scott, who was in awe of his father but also resented his cursory involvement in his life. Scott, too, was bisexual but he was also drug-addled. When Sal Mineo was finally rejected as a lover by Newman in the late Sixties, he rang him up to say that he was in bed with Scott. Scott eventually died of a drugs overdose in 1978 and Porter chooses to end his book with the moment when Newman contemplated suicide by drowning not long after his son’s death. Some Newman fans will find this book hard to stomach in places, since their hero emerges from it as a more insecure, driven and flawed individual than they perhaps imagined. But at least we now know that he was a lot more interesting than the goody two-shoes image he cultivated. By Darwin Porter”
