this movie did not bring luck to the actors. Natalie wood died in a drowning accident...James Dean in car accident....and Sal Mineo...killed in an alley
I hope anyone reading this knows who Herve Attia is. Just search his name on CZcams. Your mind will be blown!! In a good way!
I agree!,…….. he’s amazing@ his Craft!👀😎👏👍✌️🇨🇦
😭😭
I loved James Dean. I saw his movie Rebel Without Cause when I saw it on TV quite a few years ago. He was a good actor and very handsome in a sexy rugged way.
Natalie was murdered also
In Rebel Without A Cause, Sal Mineo, James Dean, and Natalie Wood did a scene involving a drained swimming pool in a Mansion that was soon to be demolished. This was the mansion used in the film Sunset Boulevard, and the pool was used for the floating body of William Holden shot by Norma Desmond. Plato, Mineo's character was tragically shot by the police. Mineo, Dean and Wood all died tragic deaths
Wow, I never heard that about the pool. Weird that they all died different ways too.
Wow - how cool! Sunset Boulevard is one of my favorite movies. 🙂
i never knew that thank you
Thank you Wikipedia
So much history in LA. It's like you can't even turn a corner without saying such and such happened here. Great video, Michael! Happy Halloween! 💀🖤🎃
And probably around 90% of it has been destroyed to put up McMansions.
@@chrisharris7931 Sadly true.
@@bobroma I still enjoy seeing where things like The Brown Derby, The Garden of Allah, Pickfair, etc used to be. But it's hard to believe how much history has been bulldozed in that city.
@@chrisharris7931 New York City has done the same. Which really sucks. But it seems like LA does it twice as fast. "The hell with history if I can make fifty cents."
True I’ve lived here my whole life and so has my dad, and I once told him this story I saw Tim heidecker tell about when he got stabbed (in LA) by his neighbors son on drugs who normally was a nice guy. Then my dad told me a story about a similar thing happening to him where his roommates girlfriends brother or something like that was chasing him with a kitchen knife and chased him out the window onto a little balcony thing and somehow him and the other people there managed to stop him and get the knife. But it’s insane how you can practically throw a rock in LA and hit somehow who either has or knows somebody who has a story like this. Not even to mention the ones who don’t have a story because they die like the people here haha
The three of them died from that film as well as Natalie wood in a boating accident . people think the film is cursed.Personally just think hollywood was a dangerous place for actors and still is.
agreed..
Thank you, thank you. I can’t say it enough. I was so affected by his death and to have my favorite CZcams channel cover Sal with such compassion made my day, year, lifetime. Again thank you
Arlene, you sound a lot like me! Best wishes to you and
Doug!!
Literally my favorite theme song/imagery of any CZcams channel, ever.
Me too! Love it 😊
It's creepy that the door Sal Mineo used has a spider web looking emblem on it & James Dead died driving the 550 Spyder. I wonder if Natalie Wood had any spider type theme to her death? They all had an untimely, tragic & early death.
Another common denominator which unites them? Marlon Brando slept with all three. LOL
@@wendellbatts2477 👄
Sad! So much tragedy!💔
Some kind of occult synchronicity at work.
@@wendellbatts2477 Holy shit looked it up. Pretty awesome of Brando to be open about his bi-sexuality back then but it said he told everyone about that in the 70s. Which big celeb movie star is bisexual that you know of and is alive today?
Appreciate you both covering his tragic saga. Rest peacefully, Sal. 🕊️🙏❤️
Thank you for your videos. They're so well produced and respectful in their tone. Someone should do a video on Christa Helm, who was stabbed to death one year to the day after Sal Mineo and less than 5 miles away.
Grimmlife if I was living in LA, I would be going to exactly the same places... keep it up from the UK!
The gun in the movie belonged to "Plato's parents, not "Jim."
Plato is shown taking it from the drawer in his mother's room.
No, he found a child support check, un-cashed for almost $700.00 for his care I think, (which was a lot of money back then. Like $7,000 today I can believe), from the drawer. That is a segment of the movie I don't understand as he crumbled it up and threw it on the floor. He then found his mothers gun under the pillows and sheets of the bed he was sitting on. I just bought the Blu-Ray. $27.00 Wheew. Maybe that $70.00 check is worth more than American Nostalgia today?
I love your history videos. Keep these people alive with your videos, Michael. I was born in 1956 so it was shortly after my birth that these things happened. I love the history of these people's lives and death. You really do them justice with these videos. I think they woul be proud of your videos of their lives and deaths.
I live in Lafayette Indiana not to far from where James Dean grew up I have been to his grave .
Now I want to watch Rebel again. Such a great film. RIP to Sal, Natalie and James.
rest in peace, Sal. i hope you, Natalie and James are having a good time wherever you are.
James Dean was one of my dad's favorite actors and Rebel Without A Cause was one of his favorite movies. Sad that all three lead actors were dead within thirty years of its release. I often forget, having grown up near Los Angeles, that this place is a tourist Mecca. I could see how two huge movie fans would be beside themselves finding movie locations, just within blocks of their new home. Enjoy tracking down those historical and movie locations here in Southern California.
RIP
Sal Mineo
(1939-1976)
I'm a former Yinzer, too. I remember the Buhl. We used to go there for Laseriums. I'll never forget the Led Zeppelin one. When they played "Ramble On", they would swirl leaves all around on the dome!
Once a yinzer, always a yinzer. That's the burgh mantra.
Yinzer, born and raised. My adult life was all Los Angeles u til a few years ago.
Loved those Laser Light shows they used to do at our Planetarium. Pink Floyd was the big one. Btw, Seth Meyers dad is from Pittsburgh. He loved having guests on who are from there or went to Carnagie Mellon. They always do the accent.
I didn't even know who Sal Mineo was until years ago when Lt Kinderman from The Exorcist compares him to Father Karras. BTW they say during the knife fight scene in Rebel Without a Cause the actors wore bulletproof vests under their clothes as they used real switchblades for the scene to keep it authentic . Thanks again Grimmlife! : )
Yes, I have seen a photo of James Dean having his shirt put on over the protective vest before they shot the scene.
Did I ever tell you you look just like Sal Mineo
wonder where those switchblades are today?
@@joejones9520 There was one sold at Heritage Auctions Sept.29/2015 claiming to have been Deans from the film. Probably cost a mint, but must admit it'd be a cool conversation piece! ; )
@@caveman3021 Oh man, wish I had it! Thanks for info.
Thank you so much for this.. Exactly, 'curse'.. Most strange, Natalie Wood, James Dean & Sal Mineo all died tragic deaths..
I just find it sad that a lot of those Hollywood babylon celebrity deaths go unsolved.
It seems there are various ways for someone to hide in that complex. The garages are open & the alley to get to the apartments are not secured. At night it may be riskier to enter ones home
Sad sad story. He changes his life around from his childhood, to become a Hollywood actor, then gets street mugged-dies from a knife to the heart.
Earlier this year I stumbled on some home movies taken at Roddy McDowells Malibu Beach house. Sal looks great & Natalie too. Other cool guy there, Paul Newman!
Liking your videos..I'm from the UK so it all seems a different world from over here..I like the fact that you enjoy making these videos as much as we like watching them..great job..I'll keep watching! Btw the whole Sal Mineo murder allways leaves me cold
Thank you for creating this video, Sal was such an amazing talent and individual who was taken from us far too soon. I feel like he hasn't gotten the recognition he deserves. I actually visited his murder site a few years back. The same day I visited where Black Dahlia was found, and the Wonderland murder house. Needless to say I didn't get much sleep that night.
Loved movie history all my life, learned a bit more about this talented Actor, plus very respectfully done. Cheers from Brisbane Australia xx
Hi I'm Lisa from New Zealand. My brother and I were talking about this video, and he pointed out to me that we are both positive that the Observatory that u visited was also in the Queen of the Damned where Lestat took Jesse, and he almost dropped her.
Always wondered who was the lucky person that found the tire iron that James Dean threw!!!!
Can I make a request of a possible future video? I’d love to hear you all talk about Ms. Monroe and she her house where she died and all the speculation? I’d love that! Love y’all’s channel!!
Belle, Michael has made a fabulous video of exactly where Marilyn lived. He’s done great work on Marilyn.
@@pippadot679 can you attach a link please? I’d love to see it. I haven’t made it through all of the videos. I know I saw one that was about the preparation of her body before burial and I have seen their video at her grave as well.
I'm having such a great time watching your channel! I love that someone else is interested in the same things I am. You and Jessica are a great couple!
Thank you for paying tribute to Sal He is my Grandmother's Cousin 😊❤
I checked out this same site about 20 years ago, it hasn't changed at all, even since 1976. What a sad and horrific thing to happen to anybody. This was heartbreaking to Sal Mineo's family and friends. And for what? For some idiot's selfish act. It's a reminder to all of us to be careful and be aware of our surroundings. 😢
I'm a long time fan of this channel, I really enjoy videos like this where you visit celebrity death locations. Do more like this please.
Great channel.. greetings from Detroit
Your content is top notch !! I enjoy just about everything you put out. Thanks for what you do and the time you take to be very informative.
You are a great story teller. I've visited his grave in Valhala NY at Gates of Heaven Cemetery .
Great Channel!! Greetings from Italy bro!
Iove this Channel and your Awesome Vibe.Thanks for sharing
great video mate :) hope you guys are keeping well (Y)
That bust of James Dean with no eyes reminds me of a modified version of Micheal Myers’ mask or one of the masks on Motley Crue’s - Theatre Of Pain album cover.
Just started following you a few weeks ago - love the content and the background, research you both put into all your work! In this video I was also excited to hear you are a native Pittsburgher - I am as well, still live there with my family and remember Buhl Planetarium...only a select few of us were lucky enough to experience that place before its unfortunate demolition. Would have been great to still have it around today for future generations. Thanks again for what you do and looking forward to all the future videos! Cheers mate - M
Thank you for doing this video. Your research is top notch. Such a sad way for Sal Mineo to die. Loved him in Rebel Without A Cause. So much is linked to the movie. Spiderweb pattern on the door, James Dean's car, among other things. Again, thank you for doing this video. Love your work.
The custom car guy who did the Bat Mobile & Munster mobiles bought Dean's wreck. It disappeared somewhere in the US while in transit. He died & the family is closing the business.
A great video, very interesting, thanks for uploading.
Something hit that garage pretty hard 😬wonder if his spirit roam’s around in that area 💀
Duder as a mad horror fan your channel needs more subs brother appreciate your work its unreal much respect
Thanks very much for this history...it fills in a lot of detail.
Outstanding post again!!!!
Thank you very much for all your wónderful work👍👍👍
Thank you very much for showing all of the locations. Im a fan of late Sal Mineo, so sad he was being stabbed. RIP Sal.
Great Channel!! Great Content!!
I am forever fascinated by Hollywood and all the goings on and dark history throughout. I love how thorough you are and how passionate you are about bringing these stories to us correctly. I think they closed down, but there was a Dearly Departed Tour in LA that I went on twice , because it was so fascinating and I think that would've been right up your alley!
Thank for keeping all "this" alive
Great video, love it when you visit crime scenes and do now and then comparisons.
Great video! And so informative. My daughter lives in LA and I’m visiting soon. Can’t wait to see some of the sights you’ve brought to our attention. Love your content.
James dean festival is this weekend in Fairmount Indiana... You guys should come out! Grave, house he grew up in, and tons of memorabilia from his time in Hollywood
Awesome video. My wife and I have been to James dean's grave and hometown. They have that bust of him there also. Thats my favorite movie of his. Safe travels And God bless you both.
Grimmes Death location and stories are the best Vidz!
Hey man, your videos kept me interested in your channel when I was sick a month and a half ago. Did a binge and I'm always waiting for your new videos. Good job dude!
thanks for sharing, RIP Sal.
My favorite place in all of LA, first went there in High school specifically because of Rebel. I'm surprised how not crowded it is in the video!
Thanks to covid. They used to have a music/laser show in the 90’s there called Laserium.
Great Content On The Tragic Set Of Circumstances Surrounding Sal Mineo Death.. Tragically It Seems He Was In The Wrong At The Wrong Time....R.I.E.P 🙏🏻
Hello from Brasil. Thanks for amazing vídeos.
Had too come back to this segment video...great video
Such a sad ending to a great actor & man. Sal was a terrific actor taken away from us way too soon . A tragic story, but also a facinatting video. Nice job. RIP Sal. Gone But Not Forgotten
Hey you guys have to come to Massachusetts and check out the filming locations of the new AHS!!! Great work as always 💀🎃👻
That would be cool! They could do the Lady of the Dunes story maybe hit up Salem too! 👻🎃
You do amazing work.
I'm really loving this channel
Sal was really talented.
He's buried in Gate of Heaven cemetery Valhalla NY. A lot of my extended family is buried up there. Beautiful grounds 🙏🏻
Love this! My father loved this actor!! Thank you!
Your videos are Awesome my man watch every chance I get
Another awesome episode. You guys are awesome. Thank you for the awesome content.
One of my favorite young actor since child hood....its so deep and intense his sad tragic ending. Watching Movies he was in brought me back to search again his final moments.
Great vid Michael really enjoyed watching this. Such a sad story but very interesting. 👍🏻
Never been this early, great video as always my friend
Since they didn't rob him it probably had more to do with him being gay at a time when hate crimes were still prevalent.
I love vintage crime scene location. Great video man
I grew up in East Los Angeles in a neighborhood called City Terrace . My house sat on a hill facing north and I can see both the Hollywood sign and the Griffith Park Observatory in the distance to the north west on non smoggy days. I Like your video's. I Like LA history. Sal Mineo is one of my favorite actors, It sad how he died. May he rest in Peace.
This was really awesome I had no idea this happened Michael, thank you for a great piece of education in Hollywood history always love your content man great stuff. Happy Halloween!🎃
Love the Grimm Life Collective videos... Often wonder if the people that live in these places now realize what happened right there in their car port and driveway? Anyone else ever think of that?
Michael, what's up man. I love this. I feel the same way about movie locations. I just recently saw this movie for the first time too. Great history.
I was just up by there last Friday. I had no idea I was so close to it.
Great video. Look forward to seeing James Dean video and locations what a great actor he was and his cursed car he died in some very strange story's and videos I've seen
The Lil' Bastard went missing after being bought by a friend of his. Any of the parts taken from the wreck caused trouble
Great video
Thank you again Michael! So interesting but very sad😢🌹
Thank you for another great video. Keep doing what you do .
really enjoy your perspective and style on these videos you produce...keep up the great work...have you done or have I missed a tour of the Vertigo locations?
Well done!
I love your vids , sometimes it creeps me the hell out .. overall its entertaining !
Love your videos and I’ve been watching since y’all were in Savannah, Georgia. Queen of the Damned has a part that was filmed at The Griffin Observatory also.
In Rebel Without A Cause, his character dies at the Griffith Observatory just a few meters away from the spot where the Terminator arrived in 1984...
Bill Paxton was one of the hoods. He died suddenly & way too young. 🙏🏻
Another good one
Great video although at the car park you should probably have blurred out those peoples car plates
It's so sad/macabre that the three main characters in the film Rebel Without a Cause all suffered such tragic and untimely deaths. Thank you for all your great video's 💖
Awesome T-shirt Michael Happy Halloween 🎃🎃🎃
La has so much history it's a shame he died so young
One of my favorite Sal Mineo movies was Exodus
I liked he & Dean in GIANT
Love your videos bro. Keep it up 👍💀
We recently went on our own Grimm adventure and went by the James Dean crash site.
I saw a ghost show that took a psychic out there. Spooky 👻
Thank you so much for this, very sad🙏🙏.🌹RIP Sal🌹
Awesome video! Rebel Without a Cause is one of my favorite movies!
Great video love you guys
With the moral wound Sal Mineo received; it is not unusual for a victim to spend time walking for a minute or so. I suspect he was bleeding in internally with massive blood loss. Like cutting the gas line on your car. John Lennon died the same way; you just profusely bleed out and in a few minutes, you loose consciousness and die.
I was going to suggest that if you ever do a James Dean video, perhaps you can make a trip out of it and go to the James Dean Festival that has been held for over forty years now.
Wow really
