Years ago I worked for a window covering company and Mrs. Penn lived in Malibu this was the same house that Sean and Christopher grew up in. She had us come up to measure her windows for specialty blinds. she was very friendly she told us how Sean would come down the stairs and practice his Spicoloie ( spelling) sorry,… bit when he was auditioning for that Fast Times at Ridgemont High. she was very kind. A very nice lady

That’s a cool Story!!!! Was she a movie agent? I think she was or at least an actress? I remember hearing Sean say that he never wanted to be type cast as Spicolli… he worked damn hard to break that cycle. He’s one of the best!!! So was Chris. Very cool you were at their child home!

1998, me and two Dutch friends were in a pub in Santa Monica- in walks Chris Penn as friendly as sunshine. So humble and unassuming. God Bless Chris.

My brother died at the age of 32 on 11th of January 2006. Sean and I mourned our brothers almost at the same time. A year for me to erase and forget ( 2006 )

Chris died on my birthday. How can I forget! So sad. Great actor and guy. Scott, the whole front of that building is 104. Chris bought it for just over $450,000 in 1997, which is chump change by todays prices. It took the Penn family almost exactly 6 months to sell his place in 2006. It sold for $1, 585,000. Thanks for all the interesting and informative videos. Tommy from Burbank, Ca.

How can the whole front of the building be 104? There's 4 floors so it would be 204, 304 404, Stop making shit up!

I was in Santa Monica from England UK and I had a good drunk chat with Chris Penn very close to his death. I was sad to hear he died. The barman asked me if I knew who I was talking too most of the night and I didn’t at first but I was a best of the best movie fan and started to recognise him later in the night. A great memory I will always have and time to share. The bar was called Yankee Doodles if I remember correctly, lots of pool tables and I watched Mike Tyson’s last fight in there. I bet that bar isn’t there anymore. RIP He was a very friendly person and it was great chat. I miss Santa Monica

I was out walking with a friend years ago past this building, who went to highschool with Sean and Christopher and used to hang out with Chris, he pointed out Chris's condo and said the family still owned it at that time. This was a couple of years after his death. It's the north side front unit on the 1st floor.

Thank you, Scott. Beautiful tribute to Chris Penn. I remember reading that he would go over to the Fairmont Miramar next door to have a few beers and then walk home. I purchased a condo in the hi-rise in background in 2007 that I now rent out, so missed seeing him but remember the photo of Martin Sheen and Chris's mother in the alleyway. How heartbreaking! Almost like Chris Farley, going over and beyond on food, alcohol and drugs. They did it their way. After watching your video, it's interesting that William Holden was found in his high rise apt, just down the street on Ocean Ave., liquored up, passed out and found dead days later. On a lighter note, Stan Laurel lived just a few doors in between the two buildings back in the 60's when they were apts and what is now Oceana Hotel. Dick Van Dyke would go and visit him there, periodically. I was blessed to have Valerie Harper (Rhoda) and her husband rent my condo prior to her passing away. It was definitely a gift from my mom in the heavens, knowing how much I loved The Mary Tyler Moore Show. A new HBO documentary will be out this year about MTM. Appreciate all you do to make these videos so heartfelt about our favorite entertainers.

After a 35+ years of using pretty much everything from weed, lsd, crack but my drug of choice was Oxy! Got off oxy using methadone and was abusing that to! I was shooting close to 200 milligram a day for over 9 years! Lost everything during this time of my life. Looking back it's the time wasted is what I struggle with.

His Father was a Prolific TV director. He directed episodes of many famous shows from the 60'S until his death in 93

Wow...I can't believe he's been dead that long and he was only 40 years old. He was a really underappreciated actor.

Chris was Great in so many Movies. His Roles in Reservoir Dogs, At Close Range, True Romance & The Funeral were among my favorites, not just favorites that he was in but Favorite Movies period.

Ever feel like you're the very last one to know that someone died I'm in complete and utter shock I did not know Chris Penn Passed Away.. I've been a fan of him and Sean I was first introduced to Sean Penn from the movie Colors the Dennis Hopper directed movie

Scott, hope you can get to Graceland in the future to show us the gravesite of Lisa Marie alongside her other family members-what a tragedy for her to pass on at such a young age

To have it all and end up with nothing at all is just too sad. It seems to happen over and over again. Not just to Hollwood folks but plain Janes and Johns too. He had so much still to offer here but now his offerings are to a higher power. May his soul rest in peace now and forever.

He was such a good actor so talented. Gone to soon. I loved watching him. May he R.I.P. you're the first person that I've seen do a tribute to him. You always do an amazing job you're always so respectful.

Very sad. I vaguely remember this 😢. I used to live in Santa Monica, but I think I had moved already in 2004 back to Culver City. I've been to many funerals at Holy Cross cemetery, a lot of family members there, including my grandparents. It's always very peaceful when I go there. Another nice video Scott 👍 RIP Chris Penn.

Thank you Scott! You always do such beautiful tributes and give us info that we would not know if it weren’t for you. I loved him in Footloose, just watched it again the other day. I had no idea Chris had died, and I don’t remember knowing that he was Sean’s brother when I first watched the movie. RIP Chris.

The funeral is a great movie with Chris the end is very emotional, wow great actor

Thank you for this story Scott. We really enjoyed this video. Chris Penn was an absolutely wonderful gifted actor. May his soul rest in Christ.

I didn't know he passed away either! I had not seen him in a while. And now that I think about him I wondered what happened to him. Now I know. He was really great no matter what part he played. A funny man, a bad guy, a big part, a small part, it didn't matter. What a shock. How did we miss this big news? Really sad as you mentioned. It sounded like he was a walking pharmacy which obviously was not good. He was married at the time of his death, but it sounded like he was living alone according to the conditions of his residence, which sounded deplorable. Plus, his mother was called by his neighbors and house keeper, not his wife. Perhaps he and his wife were having issues or she was away on work. I think she's an actress. Margot Hemmingway died in an apartment in Santa Monica too. Probably not far from Chris Penn's place. I think she committed suicide. Her apartment looked like the white building next door. Santa Monica, such a beautiful place, but such a sad place.

Chris Penn always struck me as being such a cool guy. It’s very sad he passed away at such a young age and how much he suffered from his addictions. The cemetery where he and his father are buried is massive and so beautiful. Your shot at 12:41 of the tree with the sunset behind it is stunning. I think it’s so thoughtful how you always brush away any debris from the graves you visit, as well as place a rock on each headstone to honor the deceased.

It’s funny I watched the dude for years, and I had no idea he was Sean Penn’s brother. Then I went back to them in the 80’s and they looked so much alike before he ballooned up. It was no surprise then. He was great in Corky Romano with Chris kattan lol.

Thanks so much for the recognition of Chris Penn. Proving to all of us that a big bear of a man can still take part in movies. Chris was a tremendous actor, especially in 80s staples you mentioned such as At Close Range, Footloose, the WILD LIFE (amazing), and MADE IN USA (check those two out for anyone that hasn't seen em). Can't believe he was only 40 years old. Wish he could have used something healthier than substances toward the end, as it's clear he had a support system just from the attendees of his funeral. May he have found and be resting in peace. 🙏🌌🌫️

I remember hearing of his passing, but can't believe it was back in 2006. Even though his brother Sean was more well know, Chris had a presence on screen that made him memorable. He had many personal struggles, but hope he has found peace. Appreciate seeing his resting place. It always surprises me when celebrities have such simple graves. Wish his grave look like someone was visiting it more regularly. Just seeing the ants crawling over his gravestone was just sad.

I had forgotten all about it until it came on my KZread Home for Madonnas “Live to Tell” one of the best songs she ever sang IMO. Chris Penn’s line, “Dad!?” In “At Close Range” is now burned in my memory. So freakin sad!!! He’s gone but never forgotten. RIP 💝

I remember his death because it was only 1 ½ weeks before my own father died. He really did look like Sean in his youth, almost his twin, it sucks that his weight basically led to his early death. At least it wasn't as tragic as Chris Farley. --- Great Work Scott.
