Hi Karine thanks for yet another iconic video. Please be a darling and cover Kola Boof some time. I would love to know the inside details of what I think is a very fascinating character. Her writing for Days of our lives, being a concubine to a dictator, fued with Kimora etc. I’ll be so excited and grateful if you’d do that. Thanks my love and keep doing what you do.

Yeah it’s why most people live such a life. As much as we like to defend it as someone just living their life to the fullest and being carefree and exploring their sexuality it usually stems from a dark place of loneliness and needing to fill a void. I wish we wouldn’t overly glorify this because usually it is only hurting the person more as they can’t refuse the attention but it also kills them inside. Not to mention that she carelessly transmitted deseases to people which is so terrible.

Had nothing to do with the quality of cameras and whatnot. People were indeed more attractive in the past. Why? Non processed wholesome food with zero chemicals, produce was more mineral rich being grown in clean soil, clean water, clean air, using holistic medicine and not drugs with terrible side effects, significantly less stressful lifestyle, and not being over taxed by social media and bombarded by yet another tragedy in news just to name a few. Our world is now so toxic that it is destroying our health and aging us faster.
She was clearly a psychiatrist’s nightmare. But I think she was looking for love any way she could find it. When you have a giant hole in your heart, in your life(her mom passing, etc), you tend to find anything to fill that giant need. She was more than likely severely depressed and possibly had BPD.

I was a fan of Tallulah, she was a very authentic and talented actress and had such a cool glam vibe about her. Didn’t know about her personal life until this video. Makes you wonder if there was sexual abuse of some kind because just attention-seeking from an absentee parent doesn’t usually lead to that level of promiscuity. Although some women, who greatly fear abandonment, become the aggressor so they can be in control and be the one who doesn’t form attachment bonds and does the dumping. Also some people are born a bit hollow, they don’t evidence any real passion or love for anyone, not even for themselves. And so they drive themselves rough, always seeking pleasure, pain, shock, or whatever can make them feel something, anything, some twinge of actually being alive, because of the inner deadness that plagues them. It could be a part of the brain that had damage from birth, or a gene. No one knows. But there should be more studies. Thank you for the sensitive and intelligent recounting of her life.

I have been an artist my whole life and used to be very wild too but evolved and changed b/c I could see I was on the road to death. Now I am more alive and younger as an older person than I was when I was younger which was when I was a super cynic. You can turn things around - but only IF YOU WANT TO and most ppl don't want to b/c most hate change. I love change - thank God - which is also the sign of a true artist. A real artist wants to grow and change but art that is controlled by Hollywood is the kiss of death to the spirit of art - hence why most celebs like this vid examines - are not in touch w/ real change or real art, or actual reality and why they fall victim to addictions and vice: H-wood brainwashes you b/c it is a culty town & its lifestyles it promotes and PRESSURES you to partake in - are narcissistic and narrow-minded, which is the ultimate killer of all growth. I'd love to see a video series of non-famous artists who do really evolve and PROGRESS as they live in indie environments on their own terms and conditions where they are not conditionED. H-wood loves to use that word 'progression' - but they don't know the meaning of such a word. It escapes them and this is why they chase it so hard. The irony of always wanting what you can't have or what is hard to capture. But you can only capture what you deserve and really need when you're willing to change weak things about yourself. And that is how you ironically change the world. This is why Hollywood is dying right now w/ its multiple strikes, terrible movies and Oscars w/ its ratings getting lower & lower.
Her eyes are so sad and soulful. I'm sure at some point in her young life someone blamed her for her mother's death. There were and always will be gossip mags but there were lines they didn't cross. In this day and age very few care about "leaking" another's pains more so they live for it. She didn't apologize or blame anyone for her choices it seems. She said it and did it her way. I love your mini bio's on stars they may have been forgotten or unknown to younger generations

She was a beautiful woman with many complicated issues. They know much more today than they did then.
My one criticism for this is that you didnt bring up her philanthropy. She was a life-long liberal even though she came from a racist south and also recognized and helped her Black relatives. Good vid, as it gave a brief overview, but a lot was missing.

She also loved animals, and had both cats and dogs in her home. She even had a lion which she eventually had to give up to the zoo. She also wrote novels, and she painted. Additionally, she highlighted the importance of blood donation, although she was anaemic and was nor allowed to donate herself. Watch the Tallulah Bankhead interview by Edward R. Murrow in the 1953 edition of "Person to Person" to learn more about her.

Hi Karine, I normally don’t watch Hollywood sites, scandal or otherwise, but I absolutely love classic film and the players of that time. The Archive has lots of old movies, commercial free, and I’ve found my favorite actors’ films there. I had only seen a much older Tallulah on a “I Love Lucy” episode, (entire series is on Archive), so I had to watch your video. She was truly a beauty, looking much like Carole Lombard, (whom I adore), in some of the pics. Totally enjoyed watching this and will definitely look for her films on the Archive. Thanks much for awakening me to the young Tallulah. Blessings.
🤎 Bankhead is legend. She also used her position as the daughter of the House Speaker to save a lot of people from the Holocaust. She's probably more like Madonna or Lady Gaga if you're looking for a modern-day parallel.
I haven't even watched this yet, but I'm so excited to see Tallulah! She was a wild woman and I love it. Can't wait to watch!

150 cigarettes is like 7.5 packs a freaking day. I don’t know how she managed to do much of anything else but smoke! I mean she could certainly have sex while she was smoking, but I would imagine that her lovers probably ended up with some burn marks in some really unpleasant places. And I suspect the reason she was malnourished wasn’t just the blow, but rather that she refused to put down her cigarette long enough to chew & swallow her food.

Her affairs and drugs point, to me, to trauma, hiding from trauma. I was hoping we might find out her shoe size, I say this because her fame was immense in the 30s and 40, and the Warner Brothers cartoons played in movie theaters at the time often characatured her with huge feet, when that cartoon showed up she was always tripping on her feef, which were depicted in the cartoon as huge. (With Gable it was a wrinkled forehead, etc). Large feet were considered a serious liability at the time, something to he embarrassed about...
She was no more than a predator.

We were all born and raised in downtown L.A.! So it is possible to come from a big city or anywhere l think and not do things that are unhealthy! It is a state of mind.....

Thanks for Sharing! I never knew much about her but the Hollywood lifestyle isn’t all that it seems, I once heard a saying that women give s*x to get love, while men give love to get s*x , don’t know if this was the case with her but she was obviously seeking something that she never found, may she rest in peace.
All of the classic symptoms of depression!
Billie Holiday or even Lenny Kravitz would be an amazing video to do. Thank you Karine for these videos ❤️🤎
Her wild life, like many other pre-code and roaring twenties days actors, was fine with movie fans, until a little later. If we look at actors like Clara Bow and her younger days, we can easily understand their carefree existence and actions. Gable used rich older women to get his start and slept with every costar. Fans were okay with this behavior, then they weren’t. Mysterious deaths weren’t uncommon, like that of Thelma Todd. Wild life, lots of cash and a new, exciting industry of movies and magazines was the entertainment of the day.
I live in Washington state now but grew up in Decatur, Alabama, which is a county away from Huntsville is located. I could be in Huntsville in 20 minutes. When I was growing up, everyone still talked about the Bankhead family fortune and the rebellious Tallulah. To my knowledge, even into the late 1990s when I was a teen, the Bankheads were prominent in the Huntsville area.

In the first half of the 20th century, Hollywood had a really bad reputation among the majority of Americans, due to the reputed promiscuity, drug use and life style among Hollywood types. That kind of behavior definitely did not happen among the great majority of people.
Hattie McDaniel? I don’t know about that! Billie Holliday I knew about, because Tallulah had bailed her out of jail! But when she was no longer infatuated with Billie Holliday she dropped her! Billie Holliday wrote her a letter and read that ass! The letter is floating around on the internet! Billie was no joke 😉
I read and heard alot about Tallulah over the years. Did I hear you right, Tallulah was on the cover of Ebony magazine?
She does not need to be dragged for filth but prayed for lying down with hundreds of men, women, boys, her father, all the men her sister married clearly disfunctional all the abortions and stds, didn't cherish her temple, the drinking and smoking this is very sad this certainty doesn't need to be praised in any shape way form or fashion. This lifestyle was not normal it is not normal. Past, present, or future. Anyone that laid with her was broken and abused as well and in need of the same prayer and deliverance.😢

Sadly she seemed to be afflicted with addictions such as chemical addictions. He more than likely stemmed from past childhood traumas as well as poor self-image and self-esteem issues.
This is the definition of Histrionic Personality Disorder.
People who give themselves over to darkness never end well, unless of course they have a change of their stone heart.
Why does she look like the love child of Greta Gabor and Marlene Dietrich? She was like Mercedes de Acosta of the acting world in those days. 👌🏽👌🏽👌🏽👌🏽She lived on her own terms ❤. (And we could attribute her behaviour to her childhood. We could say it was a cry for help. Goes on to show we shouldn't judge people, as we don't know what they've through.)

Sounds as if she suffered from profound depression. Drinking and drugging. Jailbait-26!? She was nasty. Boys. She was reckless and selfish. She needed medical care. 500 people, not good. She was not loved, nor did she love anyone. So, lonely! Did she even have a dog? Nope. Pathetic life. Sorry for her. Poor little rich girl. Reminds me of the poem about Richard Corey.

Love your videos. It would be great if you could mention how much money is worth today when talking about how much stars were paid or paid for something. For example, the $75 prize money in 1917 was worth nearly $1800 today. It's not a lot of money to travel to New York and appear in a film, but it's still a lot of money for a 15 year old to do something exciting and potentially start her career. Of course I knew that $75 dollars would be worth a lot more today, but I didn't expect it to be worth 24x more today.
💝She was just more honest I think. And I say what you said all the time; nothing's really changed💦; they just hid it from the 'moral majority".
