Rudolph Valentino in Photoplay Magazine

If you are listening to this episode on release day, it is Sunday, August 23, 2026. That is a very special day in the annals of movie history. It was this day one hundred years ago that Rudolph Valentino entered mortality at 12:10 pm. It remains one of the saddest days and emotional events in movie history. For this episode we thought it would be really neat to “hear” from the legend himself. You know, bring him back to life for an episode on the date of his passing. It seemed only appropriate for Rudy to speak for himself on this centennial of his death.Let’s have a more hopeful experience on this sad day while others look back on the tragedy itself. We hope you enjoy the route we’ve taken with this episode and welcome you to a handful of fascinating Valentino appearances in the movie magazine, Photoplay!Instagram - goldensilentscastBluesky - @goldensilentscastTwitter/X - @goldensilents1#silentfilm #silentfilms #silentmovie #silentmovies #filmdiscussion #moviediscussion #filmhistory #classicfilm #vintage #classicfilm #filmhistory #film #valentino #pittsburgh #pittsburghpodcast #filmpodcast #roaringtwenties #rudolphvalentino #latinlover #funeral #italy #moviepodcast #italianhistory #silentfilmera #italianfilm
