Gary Cooper’s Scandalous Life 

When young, he was a beauty, those eyes !

Even when older with bags under his eyes, he was gorgeous. I loved all his movies.

He was beautiful & had a special quality.

One of Patricia Neal’s greatest regrets was aborting Cooper’s baby. He drove her to the procedure. Luckily for her she was able to later with her marriage to conceive and carry pregnancies. Not all women who had abortions at that time were later able to carry pregnancies. Marilyn Monroe and Polly Bergen for two. Polly Bergen spoke out regarding her abortion and her inability later to have children.

What a great and classy video about Gary Cooper! Thank you! He lived life fully, that is how it should be:

Apart from his constan philandering, he sounds lovely. Probably why his wife took him back and overlooked his indiscretions. Thank you for a lovely video.

One of the best cowboy actors of all time.

What a beautiful , handsome , drop dead gorgeous , gifted good man he was. Can you imagine what he would make of America today. He would be gutted. 😞

He was fine he was gorgeous ❤

He was handsome and talented but fidelity was not his strong point . We don’t have actors like that anymore. Thanks Gary for sharing your gift with us. We were blessed.

Whoever is creating these bios is doing an exceptional job. Thank you, ive enjoyed them all.

Loved him!! Fountainhead and the hanging tree are my favorite!❤❤❤

One of my very favorite actors ever!!! Ann

Do one on William Powell

I love Gary. We share the same birthday .

Gary Cooper was a very great actor, and a very very fine man, now resting in eternal peace in heaven

It would be great if the narrator could pronounce the names of the actors. Or had read and practiced the narration ahead of time.

Why are these Hollywood stars so disappointing when you find out what they are really like? Why were they always bed hopping despite being married with kids? Surely there must have been some who were loyal and faithful?

This was a wonderful story about a truly remarkable actor.I really enjoyed this.Thank you.

Wow!! Epic life and a fine ending to it.

During the 1980'sI commuted with a fellow worker for about six months. During WW II he was in special services. His job was to escort coop around as he entertained the troops with just his own personal greetings. He tokens what you saw on screen was exactly what he was in real !ife. Except that ever night he "entertained" a different nurse each and every night.

What a great guy, we'll never see his like again. The sergeant York picture left a lasting impression on me when I was growing up R.I.P.

I lost everything for him when reading about how he treated Patricia Neal. When they had an affair she was 21 - he 46 and married. When she bevame pregnant, he pressured her to get an abortion to protect his career and marriage. She had a nervous breakdown - he abandoned her. Terrible man.

I've seen all of Gary Coopers movies. I Loved them all. I believe I will see him in Heaven someday

Strange, but Carl Sandburg once called him the most beloved illiterates this country has ever known. In his autobiography, Anthony Quinn wrote about a night under the skies in Mexico in 1953 during filming of “Blowing wild”: “Lying on the ground with Gary Cooper, actress Suzan Ball ( Quinn’s love of his life) and Barbara Stanwyck. “ At one point, I looked over and noticed that Coop’s left arm appeared to be missing. It was a very strange thing. The moonlight had left him silhouetted in an unusual way, but as my eyes adjusted to the shadows, I could place his hands underneath Barbara Stanwyck’s skirt. Suzan was soundly asleep on my arm, and Barbara had her eyes closed and was feigning sleep. Coop was working his hand quite diligently between her thighs, and she moved with him. He kept up with his talking, going on and on about women, all the while diddling the famous lady who lay at his side”. Anthony Quinn also wrote that he was known to have different women for different moods. What a lucky guy!

Gary Cooper won many acting awards throughout his career he won best actor for Sergeant York in 1941 and for high noon in 1952 he also won the New York film critics award for Sergeant York in 1941 I believe he won a Golden globe award for high noon in 1952 Marilyn Monroe won a golden globe award in 1952 Cooper teams with Ingrid Bergman and two successful for whom the Bell tolls which was his highest grossing, they both starred in Saratoga trunk that was filmed in 1943 it's made almost as much money as Sergeant York had made in 1941 Saratoga truck was the 1946 , is the sixth most popular film in the year of 1946 Cooper's most popular film l For whom the Bell Tolls, Sergeant York, Saratoga trunk, these were his highest grossing movies Gary Cooper had to be taught baseball to play the role of Lou Gehrig, Cooper was a Lou Gehrig was Left hander.. 3:57

he sounds like a rich over privilaged player

Tallullah Bankhead said that the V.D. she caught from Gary Copper caused her to have a hysterectomy as a young woman.

He was a real player, I wouldn’t want him

Do a bio on Aldo Ray. He was an interesting guy.

Me truly I loved this man, seemed caring but all business

Well...there was one physical aspect of Gary Cooper that really impressed his many lady friends...I think people in this comment section know what I am referring to.

Handsome actor with his beautiful eyes

Hollywood truly acted like a bunch of dogs. I mean the filthiness was everywhere. Godless Hollywood from the beginning.

Glad he was at peace when he passed A great American

Someone must have been praying for this man.

My god...the narrator had no idea how to correctly pronounce Lupe's and Clara's name. Obvously he was reading from a script and had no knowledge of the era.

Mr. Cooper won TWO Best Actor Oscars for Sergeant York and High Noon. Please double-check your facts before uploading to RU-vid

I’ve always admired Gary Cooper as an actor & human being! I’ve seen news reels of his testimony before the HUAC HEARINGS and he denounced communism but refused to name names, saying that he didn’t run in those circles & didn’t know who did! His defense of Carl Foreman is legendary when he stood up to John Wayne on the set of “ High Noon”! Wayne wanted Foreman to be removed & Cooper said if Foreman’s name didn’t appear on the credits he would quit the movie! Foreman’s name appears in the credits & Cooper won the Oscar for his performance! John Wayne was so upset that he attacked the movie as un-American, & made “Rio Bravo” in response! At least that’s the rumor!

Loved his acting.

tony soprano loved gary cooper strong silent type tony called him

They invented the term Wooden Actor for this guy.

I liked him in Ayn Rand's _The Fountainhead._

Anthony Quinn told an eye opening story about when he made Blowing Wild with Cooper and Barbara Stanwyck. One night after filming the three of them were laying on the grass looking up at the stars. Quinn said Stanwyck suddenly started moaning and when he looked over, Cooper had his hand down her trousers!

I like these videos overall, but the narration often leaves much to be desired. The narrator needs to pronounce people’s names properly, especially super famous people like Clara Bow. It’s not pronounced “bow” as in “take a bow”, it’s pronounced “bow” as in “bow and arrow”. 🤦🏻‍♂️

He was ok.. but I think it was ridiculous how they paired him with women who could have been his granddaughters.. Grace Kelly and Audrey Hepburn..I did like The Fountainhead..

Have you done a video on Anthony Quinn that would be interesting?

What a beautiful man

A great looking guy, he had a naturalistic acting style, when other actors were still being stagy. Yes, he had the reputation of liking the ladies, he always went back to his wife.

Tambien se comentaba que tuvo una larga relacion con Tony Perkins

Just FYI...her name is pronounced Clara Bow (rhymes with toe) and she was the most famous actress during the silent movie era

un grande attore.

One of my favorite movies is "Meet John Doe" starring Cooper and Stanwyck.❤

He was very handsome and heard that he was very well endowed...A famous actress in the 40's committed suicide over him.

Shame on you Gary Cooper was a great star and made some great movies. His personal life should stay personal.

Great actor ❤

Lousy grammar and spelling on meme. GARY. Not Garry. Many poor grammar errors.

I would like to hear about Robert Redford and Paul Newman😊

Ladies were lining up to take him on because rumor has it that he’s PACKING!!

⭐️🏆⭐️

I loved all of his movies ❤

It’s pronounced ‘Gillingham’ with a cap G, not the lowercase ‘g’. Jillingham if you wish !

I see "James Dean" in the younger pictures of Gary Cooper!

Gosh, He never struck me as a "Great" actor .

He opposed the correct things in POLITICAL orientation .... not otherwise unfortunately. Just a man. Imperfect.

So good looking

So this was the strong silent type Tony was talking about?

OMG. That's real man.

People still believe there are Hollywood actors who aren’t/weren’t gay? How precious…

That is rather an ironic statement of an actor's life if I have ever heard one unless one's life's only measured in their financial accomplishments! Well I tell you what it makes Errol Flynn's love life look infinitely less debauchery in comparison.

Enjoyed his performances although they became Holier Then Thou.

Would you cover Fred Astaire, William Powell and/or Clark Gable?

There were times when he should have worn his pants backwards.

He always had a bad back from an early accident , which i read and always thought had turned 2 cancer

Rich people living rich people's lives.

I like him❤🎉

He was a great actor!

Yes exaclly

EEW. SCREWING EVERYBODY THEN GETTING DISEASES, will he spread it to upu?

Was he a great actor? ? He tried all to get ahead with men/ women. Not necessarily a good man

What was scandalous about it ?

How do You know what you are claiming in this video is true? No hate intended I just want to know how you Know it's all true.

Gary liked to play baseball! Not sure if he pitched or was a catcher 😛😛😛😛😛

Trapper and Hawkeye are trying to convince nurse to date Radar. Trapper; He's the Gary Cooperish type. Hawkeye; Well more ish than Cooper.

Great video; I thought Gary Cooper passed away in the 70' or 80's

Gillingham Kent is pronounced with a soft “G”. Like the G in Germany. 🇬🇧

Tyrone Power Please 😊

Coop His Morals And Ideas Public Principles Intriguing With Friends Will Rogers. Values Of American Life Of Spiritual Awakening.

Houghton Regis is pronounced “How-ton Regis”. 🇬🇧

I liked the documentary. The images were well chosen and I learned a few things ...but gadzooks, who authored that insufferable and robotically intoned narration?! Ugh!

Irene was married to Cedric gibbons’ brother a b movie screen writer. And Cedric was the famous mgm art director.

Hid from him not hide, when you make basic grammar mistakes in the title don't expect people to take you seriously 😢

Por favor en español

Everybody in Hollywood knew somebody that was gay, Gary Cooper was interested in women he had a friend who was gay in Hollywood John Wayne and Rock Hudson got along fine everybody in the industry if you work there you were going to run into somebody who was this idea that he had a romance with this guy is still crap and I believe a total he was a friend of Gary Cooper's forgot along what they did in their private life did not mean anything Cooper was always interested in women Lupe Velez had a big fat mouth but he was still in love with her she made stuff up because she was jealous of anybody who came near Mike get why she would start such a crappy rumor but Cooper always had most of his leading women he worked with Fay Wray in more films than any other leading Lady and there was never a romance between the two of them however they worked in five films together still believe that that that that the stuff that Lupe Velez made up about how to beat the hell out of him and shoot him loopy was not always at night Lupe Velez was not always a nice person!

i dont know which of the two I disliked most, Gary C or Randolph Scott.....there was no intellectual depth to them..

Gary Cooper garé Gary grande c’est tous détente c’était des tas sauf qu’ils avaient la décence de pas le dire parce que sinon ils auraient tourné avec les femmes c’est les femmes qu’elle allait regarder. Si elles avaient su que c’était détente ils auraient pas eu de carrière.

"Communist ideas" actually were in reality equal rights, social welfare and a democratic (small d) country. I remember the 1950s well. I remember my mother arguing about rights for people of Color with someone at a gathering. Obviously she was winning the argument because he suddenly stood up and said, "You'd better be careful, Charline, people will accuse you of having pink petticoats (being a Communist). Gary Cooper may have been a fine actor, but it's pretty obvious that being "a man's man" was code for screwing everything in sight and feeling one had the right to do pretty much as one pleased.

He was strong silent type

on va carrément, créer un jeu, c’est pas mal savoir bon qui est homo qui est pédo qui est avec les noms, même si c’est plus c’est plus tabou

I always thought he was all man then you hear this
