I hope you do more of these filming locations from silent movies: it's fascinating to watch how much has changed over time.

Ever since watching a cut of Nosferatu set to the music of Type O Negative I have also enjoyed watching other silent movies set to Type O, something about Peter's voice just makes it work.
Type O Negative with a silent movie!!? PERFECT 🤘
Oh my god the Type O Negative song with the movie shots, to die for! Isn't it amazing how metal music and old movies just sync in amazing harmony together? Makes my dark heart weep.

Just asked for more old Hollywood with type o to carry the narritive..YUUUUS!
"The Kid" is definitely one of my favorite movies 🎬. Thanks for sharing your knowledge about Southern California! Those rocks 🪨 look volcanic.
I love Daddy Longlegs, I can't believe you went and found these locations! I'm just excited someone else is out there, loving this movie! It's hilarious! The 1917-1919 period is my favorite part of her career, and Daddy Longlegs is one of the most essential of all her films. I can't believe you found those locations!!!! GREAT JOB!
Ok, Daddy Long Legs is on my "to-watch" list now, although I am not sure the accompanying music will be as good as that of this video. It is a shame that the property owner removed the historical marker. Thanks for another great video and now back to work for me.
There is something SO mysterious about the early days of that crazy invention, the motion picture camera, and through that Mystery, makes it SO beautiful... No sound, but the emotion of the story can still be deciphered through a silent moving picture (how does that happen?). Loved this Jaunt through the past with that other era starlet, Mary Pickford... Thanks, for the Mystery & Beauty, GriMMs.... :^)"""""""

Love seeing these old buildings not only still standing but still being utilized. So enjoy these filming location videos.
Written by Agnes Christine Johnston, who also wrote It Happened to Adele, The Great Adventure, The Denial, and Lucky Devils among other films throughout 1917-'48.
This movie came out the year my grandmother was born, if she were still here she would have been really amazed by this return. Thanks for this video., I appreciate old architecture and want to preserve it.
Silent films are quintessential 'Old Hollywood' love that you guys are covering them.
I love these "line up the shots" video, Mr Grimm. Be well, blessings from Chinada.
Must feel a bit surreal to stand where those actors and film makers stood all those years ago. This one is a real oldie, great work buddy 👍👊
I do this samething, I find old photos from the 1800's taken in Southern Arizona and put myself in the same spot they were taken. Sometimes there is nothing remaining of old ghost towns or forts but you can still see the landscape and mountains. I even have photos of myself standing in the exact spot of such famous people like Geronimo, Chief Cochise and Johnny Ringo. I love history ♥
The track Wolf Moon by Type O Negative, sung live by the legendary Peter Steele, that was truly awesome!!! And it went well with the footage from Daddy Long Legs too.
I agree about historical plaques, but most people probably wouldn't want to live in a former hospital. ESPECIALLY during/after COVID. And the point of owning an apartment building is to make money by filling it with Tennants..... DLL is one of my favorite trilogies and I am so excited to watch this movie. I have no problem watching silent films and Mary is the queen.
Wow this building is still standing despite many changes around it but it’s still there. Brilliant. I thought it’s gone but it’s not! Thanks very much! And thank you for showing me the same place up the mountains where daddy long legs was filmed. Brilliant again. Show us more please. I love filming locations.
I really enjoyed watching this episode, as I do all of them. I also appreciate all the work with the research, editing, filming, and time you both put into giving us great content to watch. Thank you and Keep Up the amazing videos.

cool that you're dipping into the hollywood history from the early days. In LA, pretty good place to mine such history. Mary Pickford has a small statue in Toronto, where her childhood home was, and also visited back there a few times over the years
Thank you for this!! I’m a huge silent film fan . Mary Pickford was one of the greatest actresses of all time ❤️❤️
I love silent films. I never met anyone else who enjoys them. I haven’t seen this one but will be watching it soon. And it’s so fascinating seeing the then and now of movie sets.

I loved this! It's great to see someone who appreciates silent films along with the classic Bubba-Ho-Tep. Your reverent filming of these locations really comes through. Keep them coming!
"Where you are in life" Never have I heard a more apt barometer to determine one's favorite movie" 👍
The Orphanage Building (4:20) was also used in Chaplin's movie "The kid", where woman and the baby are released.
Oooooo! Good pick! Yeah, to be honest, there’s a handful of old silent movies that haven’t been brought to life or mention. Which, sadly, not too many kids would know what a good movie is with silent movies.
My favorite “one shot” is from Malibu State Park too. It is the shot when Charlton Heston clearly sees a gorilla soldier look back towards him in the original Planet of the Apes. I may just give Daddy Long Legs a shot.
It's a ☁️ day here in Texas with just a bit of sun and your vlogs help me stay positive and make my day better
THIS EPISODE WAS EFFING OUTSTANDING!!!!!!! This is right up my alley!!! Who in their right mind would take down that plaque!?!?!? Thanks for giving me another place to visit when I get out there!!!!!!! My first visit is to the Black Dahlia site, where I believe there should be a giant boulder with a brass plaque in it, not a damn house with kids having a lemonade stand or dropping their bikes on the site of the most famous murder in American history!!!!!!!
That would be great if y'all could touch more onto the Silent history of Hollywood! I mean they built Hollywood didn't they? Lol Anyway, I Love Mary Pickford and y'all did a great job at this video!
I've been watching grimmlifecollective for several years. This is one of your best, most significant videos. Mary Pickford was a motion picture trailblazer both as an actress and a movie executive who along with D.W. Griffith, Charlie Chaplin and Douglas Fairbanks, was one of the founders of United Artists. Also, in 1916, Mary Pickford became the first actress to sign a million-dollar ($19,600,000 in 2023 US dollars) contract.
Oh goodness! This was so amazing! As far as not many would watch this old film, you're probably right. For me,, I'm WATCHIN IT!
I love silent film location videos. Great job!
Love the video. You explain things so well helping us relive the time of the original filming. Mary Pickford my favorite female silent movie actress! She had such great talent in many aspects of the silent movie business!
That is just too cool. Would love to see a video of you at the staircase where Laurel & Hardy's The Music Box was filmed. So iconic.
That cheep is a squirrel barking a warning to his pals
Bubba ho tep, is one of my favorite movies!! It's so funny, and I think it's a plausible idea regarding Elvis 😅
A great Grim adventure may not of been horror related but history trumps horror at times! Really did love this episode 😍
She truly transcends time. just the image of her. good vlog
Mary Pickford, her husband Douglas Fairbanks Sr., Charlie Chaplin and D.W. Griffith created United Artists, a distribution for independent production. I worked for the exhibition side of UA. Mary Pickford was from Canada.
Ahhh you included my all time favourite clip in your montage. Omar Sharif riding out of the desert in Lawrence of Arabia. That whole sequence is a masterpiece
I want to say thank you so much for doing these videos I really appreciate you for sharing about history and going places that I have never seen and will never be able to go to and daddy long legs was one of my grandparents favorite movies thank you . Just one of your big fans from NC saying your awesome 👍🏼😎😊
Sitting here in my Grimm life shirt and you’re playing type o negative !I love this !! I just got my official type o negative merch come in it goes perfect with this film !!
I love Mary Pickford. If it wasn’t for my grandma I would have never heard of her cause when my grandma aaa growing up in the 1920s she used to watch Pickford and Chaplin’s films
I love your videos❤️ I'm a real history buff too. I love imagining where people in the past have walked, acted or inhabited. Thank you🙏🌹 there's something about your channel which feels comfortable to me. I love it🌏🪐🍀🎉🙏🌊🦘🦋🇦🇺👣🐾🦉🏡🌹🌹🌹🌹

You do a fantastic job! I would LOVE for you to do something that no one has yet to do and that's the filming locations of the 1986 movie Crossroads.
Aww.. Wolf Moon. My favourite, thank you.
I watch Daddy Long Legs about once a month. Mary Pickford films are about the only silent pictures I can get into. So cool that you were able to track down the filming locations. Usually I like the books more than the movies, but in this case I preferred the movie far more than the book. Mary Pickford was great in this movie. Thank you for all of your hard work .
Simple fact of the matter is they just dont make movie's like they used to but one of my all time favourite would have to be "scarface" (say hello to my little friend) that line alone speaks volumes....wow!! Matching up movie scene from over a 100yrs is cool as grimms always on point best youtube channel by far!!
I wish I could hit the like button over and over again just for adding the live version of Wolf Moon by Type O Negative. I get goosebumps every time I hear Peter's voice.

Having worked in the studios back in the day in Hollywood (Columbia,Paramount)I really appreciate what you are doing and yes the plack should stay.I wasn't around during the silent days but the 1966-1979 are the years I worked there.
Cool historic video of CA , I have lived here for all my life and you are turning me on to some great places to visit. Thank you ! 🖤
Love this video. I hope you do more of these. You do a great job. You are one cool dude. I fell in love with silent movies back in the 1960s when I was a kid, and we would go to a pizza joint in Hawthorne, CA. They would show silent movies as you enjoyed your meal. My favorite one shot in this video is the sweet Chevy Nova at about 9:11. I had one in the '70s.😀
Great video I look forward to every video I love daddy long legs a great and unappreciated art silent film is awesome type o negative song huge fan of them as well R.I.P PETER STEELE
Fabulous job! 🖤 I LOVE silent movies. Get back to the basics and amazing history was made. This one actually gave me goosebumps
THIS WAS A LOT OF FUN THANKS. MY GRANDMOTHER HAD A LIFE-SIZED MARY PICKFORD STAND-UP CUTOUT MY GRANDPARENTS KEPT IN THEIR BASEMENT THAT SHE GOT FROM A MOVIE THEATER.
Simply Amazing!
Love this video I hope u do more old Hollywood is absolutely awesome to learn about. Thanks The music was badass. As for that area where the building was i bet it wasn't all that built up back then be real nice to look up more information on that building I love stuff like that if I only knew that address lol
Thank you so much for doing this! I adore silent films and old Hollywood history.
Type O! Awesome band, who I got to see twice, many many years ago.
I love how much care u take to line up the scenes and ur explanations.
Im am loving this videos knowing she was Canadian makes me a bit proud..i live in nova scotia..the music you have that plays along with the black and white is haunting and goes so well with it❤️
The Tye O Negative song fits beautifully. Thank you for another awesome video 🦇 🎥
It's amazing that this building still stands today. I love silent movies.. Another video well done. brilliant 👍
I subscribed to your channel for the great content, but first and foremost for the way you always ask permission to film. You and Jessica are always so gracious with everyone.
Hello, Grimms! I've missed you both! I recall playing with Daddy Longleg spiders as a child at my maternal grandparents' country home. Pleasant memories! 🙋🏼
That awesome you came to highland park! So many movie filmed here!!
Loved this episode! Type O was a great soundtrack choice! Very fitting!
Great job! I can't get enough of lining up shots from the past to present day.......just fascinating! Thanks again!
Appreciate you taking advantage of whatever opportunities that comes along and not being entirely focused on ‘horror’ tales. Very happy you introducing me to ‘Calamity Man’, which I have never heard before.
LOVE the old Hollywood locations!!
Using Type O was an awesome touch.....
That white ramp next to the stairs is an old wheelchair accessible ramp.
After watching this fine venture tour, I'm definitely going to watch the movie. Thank you for taking the time and doing the research to produce this story of early Hollywood film industry. I learned something new today.
Thank you !! I love when you go back in time, I love the old Hollywood and all history around it !! And thank you for a fantastic chanel💗Greetings from Sweden 💗
I love so many of these films, even just watched EE Fellowship Appendices blu-ray disc 2 again today! I love the old Hollywood and this was a great mix of memoir and melody. 🤘
that's why i always say A favorite , There are so many different genres and, millions of films how can you have just one?
Beautifully researched! Magical!
Absolutely beautiful! Something so enchantingly haunting about silent films. Great video
Great episode, I’ve always been fascinated by old silent movies and how cool to see locations from one of these films over 100 years later.
amazing!! you do such an amazing job of lining up shoots. love your videos
Only stumbled onto this channel a few months ago and I'm so glad I did. Yet another very interesting and well presented video. Never ever before seen a silent film until today as I watched daddy long legs on you tube. As for Mary pickford, so beautiful. Keep up the good work grimms.
Love it. Great video. I love watching old film locations then and now. Michael and Jessica do it so well! Further more proves once again why this is my favorite you tube. Can't go wrong with scott on tape as well
Awesome video man loves you guys!!! P.s. I love type o negative!!!
A beautiful homage, Thanks, and well done
I loved the well timed slap in wolfmoon!!
Gorgeous episode , gorgeous film, gorgeous Mary Pickford
Wow! Your research and the walk through...amazing! Thanks!
I watched the movie and loved it. Thanks for the suggestion! RIP Mary Pickford!
Thank you! I loved this video. Glad you could Re-create that movie very cool
Daddy Long Legs 1919 is definetely worth seeing, as is the Mary Pickford Catalogue. She brought a natural form of acting to films, simple human gestures an audience could relate to. In 2005 a Korean film company released a version of this story that i recommend starring Ha Ji Won. It is a beautiful little film. Enjoy.
Awesome. Mary was the first actor to sign a million dollar contract a couple years before Daddy Long Legs. When she started in 1909 really making movies, she was making 10 a day which is about 320 bucks in todays money. Love these old movie shoots and how much has changed.
That was awesome. Thank you so much for doing this.
The Type O Negative trac was a perfect mood enhancer for the video .
I really enjoyed this one. I enjoy all your videos. I grew up watching all the old black and white movies even the silent ones. I used to watch them with my mother when I was a kid. But thank you so much for the filming locations for daddy long legs. This was absolutely superb. You did an excellent job
HEY, MICHAEL AND JESSICA Well that's so Dang cool that you Could even find guest one of The filming locations to that film Being a F_ _ _en 103 Year's old I've seen a number of film's with Mary Pickford In them But not this one and I Really enjoy the old Silent films Well thank you for doing this vlog A little different from what you usually do But very enjoyable OK Take care stay safe and will see you on the next video project
Movie history, not just a particular movie, but the history of the entire industry is fascinating. This couldn't have been easy to track down these locations. Thank you for putting in the work. 😀 Have you thought about doing video's on D.W. Griffith's controversial "Birth of a Nation", or Cecil B. Demille's "Ten Commandments" (the 1923 silent)?
