Rest In Peace, Dorothy Malone. You Will Be Missed!!! I have seen fourteen of the thirty films listed on this page and pretty much enjoyed Miss Malone’s performances in all of those fourteen movies especially ARTISTS AND MODELS, TARNISHED ANGELS, WRITTEN ON THE WIND, and YOUNG AT HEART. Furthermore, I also enjoyed her stint as Constance on the prime time television version of PEYTON PLACE in the mid 1960s. Thanks, Bruce, for doing such a wonderful tribute to Dorothy Malone.
Hey Greg…..thanks for the nice words about our Malone tribute. A sad day indeed. Another person who worked in the Golden Era of movies is gone…so sad. I have only seen 7 of this 30 movies…and looking at the ones that did not make this page….my total will remain at 7. Of the four movies you called out… I have only seen Written on the Wind….but she was stellar in that movie…and deserved the Oscar she got. Her role in Peyton Place was called out many times in her articles yesterday and today. I have not seen a single episode of that show…I think it ran for almost 10 years….heck maybe even more. Thanks for the thoughts on Dorothy Malone…RIP.
Hello, I did not know that she died until you mentioned it. I liked her and I have seen many of her movies, She was really good in Written In The Wind. That one has shown up on TCM a few times. Didn’t she have a small role in the movie with Sharon Stone and Michael Douglas – where Sharon was a killer with an ice pick? Tarnished Angels was good too. She played a good role in The Man With A Thousand Faces with James Cagney. She played a nasty person in that role. Hey, we had a heat wave today after the second set of snow this January, 2018…….Hey, where are the videos you had on recent movie sites? Thanks for the info.
Thanks again for this movie site, well done as usual. Hey, where have the videos gone on the movies like you had recently???
Hey Bern1960….sorry to be the bearer of bad news. She was 92. She won the Oscar for Written In The Wind. Basic Instinct was very last movie. Actually it was last acting role as well….as she did not appear on screen or on television. I liked The Man With A Thousand Faces too. Yep…the temperature was up….WoC and I did some fence repair today…..parts of the fence were in pretty bad shape. The videos are still here…..when you see the movie title highlighted…..just click it and it will send you to the trailer page. 33% of Malone movies have the trailers. Thanks for the nice thoughts on Dorothy Malone.
RIP Dorothy Malone.
I recently rewatched The Last Voyage. I’ve seen 14 of her movies. My favourites were The Big Sleep, Written on the Wind and Warlock.
Hey Flora….I have seen 7 of the movies listed here. Your 14 tops Greg’s 12. I recently watched The Last Voyage…I was pleasantly surprised by that movie…..I loved the ending….as they actually sunk a real boat….and some of those scenes of the water engulfing the boat are impressive and scary. I have seen all three of your favorites….and I liked them all as well. Thanks for sharing your Dorothy Malone thoughts on this sad day. RIP Ms. Malone.
Thank you so much for your tribute to the beautiful and gorgeous Dorothy Malone, one of the very last film stars from the Golden Age of Hollywood. She was especially memorable in Battle Cry, The Big Sleep, The Tarnished Angels, and Written on the Wind. Rest in Peace!
Hey Frank…..thanks for visiting our Dorothy Malone page. I agree she was one of the last film stars from the Golden Age of Hollywood. Her co-star list is filled with legends. I can only imagine the behind the scenes stories she had on Cagney, Grant, Douglas, Sinatra, Reagan and so many others. I have not seen The Tarnished Angels…but I really like the other movies you like. Glad to read your thoughts on Ms. Malone. RIP.
R.I.P. Dorothy Malone. Sad news. If I hadn’t already done a top 30 video on her I would have had one ready on monday as a tribute.
Looking at the chart I’ve only seen 7 of her films. Favorites include Basic Instinct, Warlock, The Last Sunset and The Big Sleep.
I haven’t seen Written on the Wind or Tarnished Angels.
A nice tribute Bruce. Vote Up!
Hey Steve. Thanks for sharing your thoughts on Dorothy Malone. Sad day for film fans. I need to add your video to the page…I will do that after finishing this page. Tally count…Flora 14, Greg 12 and us tied for last with 7. I liked Basic Instinct (own it), The Big Sleep and Warlock. I have not seen The Last Sunset yet. Another Oscar winning movie that has escaped you…..one day….lol. RIP Dorothy Malone.
Your Dorothy Malone video is now part of our page. RIP
gracias mi amigo!
Here to help…..do you have any stats on how much or little traffic your videos get from UMR? I have a very hard time finding any stats on my little tiny You Tube page.
Hi Bruce, I don’t check google analytics anymore, youtube has it’s own analytics page. From what I’ve seen my videos are getting views “embedded in external websites” so that’s cool! Cheers.
And my Joan Crawford video has had 15 views from a place called “ultimatemovierankings” whatever that is. 😉
Hey Steve….thanks for some stats from the world of Top Ten Charts on You Tube….glad some views are coming from that “ultimate movie rankings” page.
