    It seems to me because her career peak was from the 1940s & to early 1950s, too many people either have forgotten or do not know of her exquisite beauty. (Thanks for the reminder and quality video, Claudia.) Gene Tierney definitely deserves an equal place on the "Mount Rushmore" of Hollywood beauties.

    This was so beautiful. I loved that you used part of the score from "Laura"- the music in this video already reminded me of Gene Tierney's beauty which made this video even more powerful. Your editing was absolutely sensational and I loved your scene choices- you definitely included all of her most beautiful moments. I also loved how you changed the tone of the video with the change in the music at 2:57. So good! Your work never ceases to impress me :)

    Muchas actrices tienen rasgos bonitos, ojos bonitos, nariz bonita....pero Gene Tierney , tenía en su rostro una estructura ósea muy hermosa....perfecta.
    Y ese estado melancólico que tenía la hacía como más humilde que otras...y entonces creo yo que pasaba más inadvertida que otras.

    I have her autobio which I'm going to read.
    Frank Sinatra said that one of the classiest things he’d ever seen in his life was Gene Tierney walking into a Broadway theater one night wearing a white mink jacket. :)

Sinatra was among all the stars on the night, Gene is shown, on the Fox Movietone News of the night making her entrance on the DVD's special features I have of the movie Darryl Zanuck pulled out all the stops for the Premier on this one it is a very good movie.

    Gene Tierney was one of the most beautiful women on the silver screen. Her sculptured cheek bones and beautiful expressive eyes was too much more me to handle lol. She was also a great actress who is a bit underrated. Mostly known for her beauty. Leave Her To Heaven, Laura, and Dragonwyck are my favorites.

    Thank you for an enchanting, poetic tribute! For me, I think Gene is most beautiful in Shanghai, Sunrise and Tobacco. But in every film, in every scene, and every second, Gene is classy elegance. It's impossible to go wrong with her images. Timeless beauty. Sometimes just freezing a moment in time lasts for eternity. I love the entrance at 0:40, her head turning in the images after and music pacing the images 0:04-1:37. The music from her legendary role fits her like the shimmering gown in the final scene in Shanghai. Then fade to black and back again at 2:59 with Gene emerging from darkness and the slowed down Laura scene. Of course, her original bad girl from Heaven (a fallen angel?!) at 3:58 with the shades intently staring and plotting, jealousy becomes her muse. Laura must be eternally grateful, smiling from above, Claudia!

    Her beauty and poise, truly underrated, her talent as an actress evident in every role she played. A true American icon deserving of the highest acclaim yet few acknowledged her for the brilliant mega star she was and the genius of her work. A truly beautiful tribute with the iconic theme of Laura melting us with every scene. Her mesmerizing stare was present in every one of her performances and one could feel the pain behind those wistful eyes and glances that emulated from the tragedy of her personal life. Thank you for this tribute and thank you Gene Tierney for the great contributions to American cinema and American culture.

  • @544cachito
    @544cachito Před 9 lety +3

    Her beauty was so powerful that unfortunately it simply overshadowed every other dimensions of her personality. The parts this actress played seemed to over accentuate something that didnt need to be, which was her beauty. Saddly, too much beauty tends to fade everything out about a person,which is why i think gene tierney was overlooked. Marilyn monroe had a combination of traits both physical and psychological that are quiet rare which is she remains until today an icon.

      I imagine Vivien Leigh...whom her lover and soon to be husband, the great Sir Larry Olivier, wanted her as the second Mrs. de Winter but when you watch their screen test, it's clear she still hadn't dropped Scarlett from the year before and was definitely more domineering like Rebecca...like Scarlett would be but super evil. So Olivier resented and hated Fontaine which Hitch encouraged to further alienate her which helped her performance of an insecure, mousy, naive, unsophisticated young woman.

    Interesting thought, a movie of Genes life it would have everything, and in the right hands it could make a good movie. Kennedy, Hughes, Prince Ali Khan, Hollywood and all it's failings and intrigues. Tragedy, Meteoric rise to Stardom and a Fall into that abyss of despair and pain bordering on Suicide, and like the mythical Phoenix to rise above it all find love again....Kate Winslet would be my choice to play Gene how about your choice for Gene.
