The day after Jeremy's death, the English newspaper The Guardian published an obituary calling him the Prince of All Holmes.
Other actors play Sherlock Holmes, Jeremy Brett was Sherlock Holmes.
The materials used in the video and publicly available of the Internet.
Exastly 28 years ago, on September 12, 1995, Jeremy Brett passed away on Tuesday morning. The usual, warm September day began...But this day, our dear, beloved Jeremy was no longer there...It was Tuesday, just like today. There are wounds that never heal. Sometimes you don't feel pain right away. For a while you live by inertia - it seems to you that nothing has changed. And all that happened was just a dream, a flying dream. Now you wake up, and everything will be as before . But time passes, and the lingering nightmare continues, and one day you finally, with all you heart with all your mind, with all your being, realize the reality of losd. You understand that you will never, never again see his charming smile, hear his beautiful voice, see his new roles, his new amazing interviews....He is no more. From this thought you will want to beat you fists against the walls, you will want to run wherever your eyes look - but you know: it is impossible to escape from this, nothing can save you from this pain. And now have to live with this pain in my heart ❤for many years. In my heart, in my life, Mr.Jeremy you will forever remain alive. Thank you for your miracle tribute. Whenever I look at JB, I feel like I only knew him for the indomitable energy, passion, kindness and joy that comes from his face and loving smile. Jeremy Brett is alive because we love you, Jeremy. He had an amazing aura of life that shone like the sun, and like the sun, it is eternal. It's hard to find fans like that that will make you immortal long after you're gone❤❤❤
Thank you,for the beautiful video, and your heartfelt words.
I randomly found this quote by my beloved Saint-Exupéry
"On a day of burial there is no perspective - for space itself is annihilated. Your dead friend is still a fragmentary being. The day you bury him is a day of chores and crowds, of hands false or true to be shaken, of the immediate cares of mourning. The dead friend will not really die until tomorrow, when silence is round you again. Then he will show himself complete, as he was - to tear himself away, as he was, from the substantial you. Only then will you cry."
The source isn't indicated but I guess he wrote it in a series of article for the newspaper "L'Intransigeant", after his friend and colleague pioneer aviator Jean Mermoz and his crew disappeared in 1936 en route to Brazil.
@@charlottevairet3453 Thank you very much for the guote! I so appreciate that you found this particular quote by Antoine de Saint-Exupery for me. He could describe exactly those mournful feelings that you experience after the funeral of a loved one, a friend. Throughout my life I have lost all my close people. And the endless loneliness, the inner cold that I experisnced after their funeral cannot be expressed in words. It's like a sudden bitter frost in the middle of May. It's like being alone on a desert island. It was as if the sunlight suddenly went out and darkness fell. " I think that all my life I have been on the border between two worlds: the world in which we live on earth, and the one to which we go when our earthly stay comes to an end. In fact, this is what really helped me. Knowing this for us is something greater than life, and death makes us realize that everything is possible". - Jeremy Brett. Our dear Jeremy sincerely believed in the immortality of the human soul. I also sincerely believe that with the death of a person only the earthly path ends. Another world awaits ahead, where "everythings is possible..."
@JoanJeremy95 Where did you find this phenomenal quote by Jeremy : " I think that all my life I have been on the border between two worlds : the world in which we live on earth, and the one to which we go when our earthly stay comes to an end. In fact, this is what really helped me. Knowing this for us is something greater than life, and death makes us realize that everything is possible" ???
When did he say that ?
I'm hugely interested and very intrigued by this because it evokes to me things I read in two paper articles I once feil upon.
In one of them he referred to the rheumatic fever which obliged him to lay and maintained him between life and death for months.
If I remember well, he explained what effect it had, at 16, on the way he saw life after that, and how it changed his relationships to others.
Maybe, it's the reason why our friend Anne and others, can see melancholy in his eyes on many of his photographs...
In the other article, still if my memory doesn't betray me, it was about his breakdown and his sense of being out of trouble after having been treated.
There, he said that having undergone this, he had the feeling of being able to understand people better because he had acquired an hability to see through them...
On one hand, I think I understand both his statements ; on the other hand, I wonder to what extent it his artist personality* that leads him to tell this things in that way...
But it also shows how rich it* was, and how curious of others and open-minded Jeremy was.
Anyway, I can't help thinking that the serious illness during his teens and, before that, the isolation he ± endured as a child because of his speech impediment, may have left
long lasting, hidden traces and maybe a kind of imperceivable fragility in his psyche.
I'm not a "psy", but I still think that this health problems may be causes to take into account for his breakdown, his premature widowerhood being, in comparison, the most violent and easy to spot struke that led to his mental collapse.
Nothing is clear and simple in a human life ...
@@charlottevairet3453 Thank you very much for your detailed answer. I'll try to explain a little about my attitude towards Jeremy. Perhaps at the very beginning when I learned about Jeremy Brett, I idealized him as very unusual person. But later, when I found many memories of him on the Internet from his friends, colleagues, and interviews with Jeremy himself, I became imbued with immense respect and compassion for him. I'm not trying idealize Jeremy because he was a famous and handsome actor. Even if he were an ordinary person, I would continue to feel spiritual attachment to him. I have had an ongoing, tender affection for Jeremy for many years. In my letters I tried to explain to you my compassion for Jeremy. He suffered a lot of grief and suffering in his life. He suffered many attacks of his mental illness. Bipolar disorder is a brutal mental illness. To face this disease, you need to have a lot of courage and perseverance. Based on my experience, I know what a person can feel during treatment. What kind of internall hell, what kind of tears do you have to go through in order to feel that the disease is going away for a while? Jeremy didn't discourage himself with questions like, "Why am I so unlucky? What did I do to deseve this?" All these questions, if you understand reality and fully accept it in your heart, are irrelevant and insoluble. These are all just questions to which no one knows the answer. The situation you find yourself in is just one of the cases that can happen in life. This disease is to blame for changes in a person's character and behavior. A person who has endured such suffering always becomes an Angel for me after his death. My mother, who died of cancer, and my 4-year-old daugter, who died due to SMA, also always remain my Angels for me. I called Jeremy the Prince not only because he was a handsome man, on stage he played Prince Hamlet, Macbeth, he played aristocrats, he really was the Prince of all Holmeses. Please excuse the long explanation. I tried to explain why I have a heartfelt affection for Jeremy.My small videos about Jeremy are all I can do for his memory. There are people who didn't know anything about Jeremy Brett before. But after watching some of my videos about him, they became interested in his work. For me, their feedback is an invaluable reward.
Jeremy Brett really was a very handsome Talented Actor. Loved his enigmatic Sherlock Holmes...❤ sadly missed ........
He was devilishly handsome & his voice to match his looks is incomparable.
I love him, how beautiful he is.
Such a amazing,breathtaking person! He had so much tallent,he was such an expressive actor, he got into the skin of the character he was playing. This world will never have a better Sherlock Holmes. Rest in peace,dear Jeremy..❤❤❤
This video takes my breathe away, he was soooo glorious and beautiful. Thank you for such a lovely, perfect and absolutely wonderful video!! This man hade a huge impact on the world and he will never be forgotten, I am a fan since the 80s.when me and my mom watched everyone of them. And I will always be a fan thank you for keeping him in our memories and some of these photos I've never seen, so I am very happy for these videos!! Take care and many blessings my friend!!❤😊
❤❤❤
It's been said that you can tell your age by who is "your" Dr Who. I think a broader brush is: Who is your Holmes? They come along less frequently. Jeremy Brett is my Holmes and always will be. I never tire of his performance in the role.
Agreed Well said from across the Other side of the pond.Fell in love with Him for His acting at 13 years old in Masterpiece Theater First Production loved Jeremy Brett still do.His Holmes is the best Ever.
Oh, magnificent actor!!! RIP
Thank you for this. There were several pictures that I have never seen before. This is a treasure!
He was only 61 when he passed away! That is not old in today's era. There are rare men who are truly beautiful, like Tyrone Powers for example, and Jeremy Brett is in this category. I loved Brett as Maxim de Winter in Rebecca and as Sherlock Holmes in the series. He was a true talent.
Merci !
Спасибо !
🌹
Heaven is beautiful, he's resting there❤️🌹😇💖♥️
Thank you for this memorial. I love Jeremy Brett forever!❤❤❤😊
Mary Elizabeth Frye
Do not stand at my grave and weep;
I am not there. I do not sleep.
I am a thousand winds that blow.
I am the diamond glints on snow.
I am the sunlight on ripened grain.
I am the gentle autumn rain.
When you awaken in the morning's hush
I am the swift uplifting rush
Of quiet birds in circled flight.
I am the soft stars that shine at night.
Do not stand at my grave and cry;
I am not there. I did not die.
He is an under rated star & he is so good in all genre of performances. I would like to see him in more roles than he had done. He was good as a villain or a romantic lead. He can sing & dance beautifully. There is really none like him. Thank God for the recordings of only some of his performances. He was devilishly handsome with a great voice to match his looks, he has style, class, elegance & most of all a kind heart. 🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼
Thank you. For me he is the greatest English Actor. Thank you, wisest man, Mr.Holmes. I thank you for everything, sir. I didn't believe in another world before. But for me now he's like an Angel. The most beautiful of men with a truly captivating voice and perfect diction. This man was a true gentleman, one to literally die for. Especially those eyes, they are absolutely mesmerizing, a reflection of his heart, he was such a unique person, the one and only Sherlock Holmes. I tried to hold back my tears while working on this video. The only consolation for all of us is that Jeremy no longer experiences the pain and suffering that he went through in his life.
Thank you for this amazing tribute.
Cara Lady ksenia, non conoscevo Jeremy Brett come attore perché non ho mai seguito la sua carriera, lo sto conoscendo attraverso te e sono commossa per il video che hai montato per ricordarlo. In questo video si nota la grande sensibilità nel mostrare le immagini di questa persona che tu certamente conoscevi e che forse amavi. La musica che accompagna il video è struggente come il ricordo di chi non c'è più. Sono rimasta molto colpita da questo e volevo dirtelo. Ciao Lady ksenia, brava!
Thank you very much for your feedback. I was touched by your sincerity when I read it. I didn't know Jeremy Brett when he was alive. No matter how much time passes after his death, I will never forget him. He was an incredibly talented actor. He had a gentle, generous soul. He was a strong and obliging person. He continued to star in Sherlock Holmes while overcoming his progressive illness. It was hard for me to make this video; tears blurred eyes. This music is beautiful, it touches the most cherished corners of the human soul. I consider myself a happy person. Thanks to these videos, many people can learn about Jeremy Brett and become interested in his personality. Now the main thing for me is.
@@charlottevairet3453 You're right. I also don't like using English to communicate with people from other countries. English is convenient for an electronic translator. Now on any website can use a built-in translator into almost any language in the world.
Cara Lucia.
Se può leggermi, per favore, rispondami : non riesco a contattarla direttamente nel modo normale. Ora ho qualcosa per lei.
Grazie !
What a wonderful and moving tribute.
I watch your vid again and again : as a young girl, when I discovered a concerto by Mozart whose work I loved anyway, even if it was Mozart, I needed a little time to be able to appreciate it fully...
The glistening orbs of light shine upon the paths he walked upon. How sacred and meditative these walks are for us to experience. Janie Unknown Writer
I shall forever recall 'Campus Maximus' - Jeremy Brett.
We all 'Forgetta him'. He is pouting in wherever he ended up.
He was on an episode of The Love Boat. Yuo, no kidding🌹🙏
Miss you RIP 🙏
My heart felt tributes to him and let his immediate family members be stronger to face up the life as it goes, unpredictable but only to have faith, sincerity that one can do, believing in God, and the way of Life, set out for every individual, group, to have good times on planet earth.
You wrote about this very well. I tried to learn a lot from Jeremy. His difficult fate taught me to endure the blows of fate, fight illness, and believe in the highest destiny of person. Thank you for your words.
@@JoanJeremy95You are welcome, its my pleasure, sharing my point of view and experiences
أنه افضل ممثل لعب دور شورلوك هولمز كنت اتابع المسلسل الوحيد بكل حلقاته كامله كان يعرض في تلفزيون العراق عام ١٩٨٧ فل يرقد في سلام هذا الفنان الرائع الذي لن يتكرر مره ثانيه 😢😢😢
Thank you for your comment. I was pleased to read it. His Sherlock Holmes is remembered and loved all over the world. I love watching the Sherlock Holmes series with Jeremy Brett often. For me and many thousands of people, he remains the only Mr. Holmes.
🖤🙏🥀
Il più grande Sherlock holmes
I'm very impressed by the picture at 10:08 : I would like to take him on my knee (he : 1m85 ; I :1m40 😆).
To say a word ? To keep silent ? How to know that ...
There are others photographs showing a Jeremy not in a geat shape.
But here ! He's clean shaven, wears a nice shirt and yet ...
Lassitude ? Impossibility to link with the other ? Sense of giving up ?
His expression is fathomless.
What to say ? What to do, even if it has been too late for long ?
I just can't describe the way this pic affects me 😢 !
This is a pretty rare photo of Jeremy. I surprised by Jeremy's appearance in this photo. It's hard to express in words the emotions I feel when looking at some of Jeremy 's photos. In this photo, Jeremy's gaze is otherworldly, as if his thoughts were not on earth, but there, beyond the line of eternal peace... It was as if he was experiencing immense fatigue, defenselessness at that moment. These are just my feelings. Maybe it was for the better that at that time there were no smartphone or digital cameras...
