Thanks very much Jerry...l remember her very very well....She is a very caring beautiful lady in my book.....l also like Jason Nelson Robards Jr. to......Your friend Steve...!
Jerry, that was a lovely tribute to a beautiful fellow Mississippian. I had no idea she was from the South. Now I'm going to have to watch that Jason Robards film they made together. that you claim is your favorite! Thanks for another great docu!
Jerry , I don't know hoy you come up with all this information,, but THANK you.. Did stella's husband also work for Crown Electric ? As you know that's whete ELVIS worked. Thank you Frank from montana...... PS great video, Jerry...
Very nice documentary on a wonderful woman. I became aware of her when she co-starred in the 2 Dean Martin movies. I've been a huge fan of Dean Martin's all my life. Stella was perfect alongside of him in those movies. She's a beautiful woman and a very fine actress. I'm very sad to hear about her health situation now. My Mother passed away from Alzheimer's disease. Dementia and Alzheimer's are terrible diseases that I wish they'd find a cure for.
So sad ● for Stella ● for your mum ● & my grandparents (who *both* died from the final symptoms. I'm truly sorry about your mum.💔 So much love & stacks of hugs to you & yours :)
AN AMERICAN BEAUTY!!! I HATE SHE WAS PUT IN A NURSING HOME!!! THE MONEY MADE ON THE SALE OF HER HOME COULD HAVE BEEN USED TO TAKE CARE OF HER AT HOME; DOESN'T SHE GET ROYALTIES...??? THANK YOU JERRY!!! AS USUAL YOU DID A BEAUTIFUL JOB WITH THIS DOCUMENTARY!!! 🙇🏾♀️🙇🏾♀️🙇🏾♀️💝💝💝🕊🕊🕊
Yea, how can I forget. I was a teen watching all those movies. Thanks for the documentary. She must have loved what she did so much. She had a very good life.
Thank you for your tasteful realization of this bio of Stella. I fell in lust with Stella when I first saw her in the mid "60's Playboy pictorial, and ever since have thought her among the most attractive actress's ever. I just found out a few weeks ago that we share the same birthday. I'm so sorry to hear of her condition, of course. It's such a cruel disease.
I grew up in the 50s and 60s and love hearing about the people on my TV screen and movies. I appreciate how you are not letting them be lost to the world. Many wonderful people. Ty
Thank You sir. She was always a favorite of mine....and Cable Hogue was priceless. I know of Alzheimer's; my father had it. He had been a brilliant scientist. Watching that great mind fade away was heartbreaking. I took care of him the last 2 years of his life. A painful task but one I was honored to do.
@GREY PILGRIM, GOD BLESS YOU FOR TAKING CARE OF YOUR DAD!!! IT IS AN HONOUR TO TAKE CARE OF OUR PARENTS WHEN THEY CAN NO LONGER TAKE CARE OF THEMSELVES!!! I AM BLESSED TO DO SO!!! 🙇🏾♀️🙇🏾♀️🙇🏾♀️💝💝💝🕊🕊🕊

@@UncommonWoman1611 I was trying to convey to Mr. Skinner what I'm quite sure many in this community feel about him. Many thanks for reaching out and re-enforcing what I thought was the common denominator we all share in here...Mr. Skinner Delivers The Goods! Cheers From Ohio and Enjoy up coming Moan-Day😂
Mr Skinner, not only are you a "Professional" film maker in every sense of the word, but you give every single person you profile, the dignity and respect we all want coming into this life and leaving this life! The way you honor your fellow human beings in life and in death is greatly appreciated. God Bless You.
What a wonderful tribute to this real life Barbie Doll. She was mesmerizing in The Ballad Of Cable Hogue, one of my favorite movies, as well. Very moving video, Jerry. Thank you!
Thanks Jerry! Great piece on the most beautiful woman I ever saw. I was trilled that you finished the video with her in "The Nutty Professor". Not only was it the first movie I saw with her as the star but in it she is the most attractive. As a teenager I was captured by her beauty and even today at 76 she still brings tears to my eyes.
I wasn't born until the 70's so she was from before my time. I watched the Nutty Professor recently and was blown away by her beauty. I didn't recognize her as the gal from The Ballad of Cable Hogue that I had watched months prior.
Beautifully done Jerry. I was born in 56 and I had a crush on Stella back when I didn’t even know what a crush was. As I’d gotten older I worked out what I liked about her. She is such a natural beauty. Hollywood never tried to put their influence on her. She remained the person she was throughout her career. It is so sad that she now can’t remember her career and what she had achieved as a person.
@@ScottyColoradoKid ❤️ stella stevens in Nutty Professor unhuman pretty& ❤️ stella stevens in girl , girls , girls movies with elvis presley: looks csuper goregous : thought she was related to , connle stevens ; laugh laughb
Absolutely incredible, awesome, can’t find the words that are appropriate for this documentary. Thank you Jerry, amazing video. I always thought Jason Robards was great. I never knew that was her Son either. You are phenomenal in what you do. Please keep em coming, and thanks again. Augie and Jill Blase. Winter. springs, Florida 🤠
So beautiful. Always thought so. Hope there was no casting couch. Playboy bad enough. Hollywood corrupts. Most importantly, Alzheimers has now been recognized as Type 3 Diabetes.
It’s always a pleasant surprise when you show up with a new film star to share with us! Always educational and on classic artists!! My favorite narrations and gorgeous photos come from you Mr Jerry Skinner!! Thank you!!
I remember seeing her in "The Nutty Professor "..although I was a teenager I thought she was the most beautiful woman of all time! Lol..She was never taken seriously as an actress..she deserved better. ...She was beautiful 😍
@MICHAEL RATLIFF, I THINK IT COULD HAVE BEEN THE PLAYBOY STUFF, NO ONE IS TAKEN SERIOUS AFTER THAT!!! PROBABLY CALLED HER A DUMB BLONDE, I'M GLAD SHE FINALLY TURNED THEM DOWN!!! BUT SHE WAS SMART AND GORGEOUS!!!
Butterfly mornings... and wildflower....afternoons.. Thank you so much Jerry- The Ballad of Cable Hoage... one of my favorites too! everyone must see that movie.. Excellent job.. and the ending Jerry.. was like her.. kind..sweet and memorable.
Stella Steven's films I do remember her, she was beautiful, adorable and had such an innocence about her.. Dementia is horrible to not remember at times your own children and life.. My aunt worked at the Time Towers for over 27 years. We were supposed to go on the morning of the 911 incident for breakfast. But her knees were bothering her so we never went. Her shift started at 4pm.. Thank God.. She was angry about the 911 incident, she lost friends, colleagues and businessmen and women she met working all those years.. When she got Dementia, it affected her that her anger of the incident had disappeared, which was great and a lot calmer. But then started forgetting things and family.. She passed away two years ago.. I at least spoke to her and cleared the air about a dispute we had, when I lived with her.. Margie Ramirez.. Rest in peace. 😪
My mom worked at the Cavalier Restaurant in the Gayoso Hotel, not too far from Goldsmiths. She used to talk about Ms. Stevens coming in the restaurant some. Mom thought she was a sweet girl. My mom also grew up on Highland.
My high school friends in the 60's talked about Raquel Welch and Elke Sommer, but Stella Stevens could compete with those actresses in the looks department. She played a huge variety of roles during her career. Check out "Twirl" on you-tube from 1981, a TV movie about a cheerleading competition.
So bitter sweet. Stella Stevens was a beautiful woman with so much talent. My Daddy had Alzheimer's for over 20 years. He would remember I was the oldest of his 5 daughters and my name. I would stay in the care home with him after a surgery or when he was ill. I miss both of our parents dearly. I pray Stella's son Andrew is well. Thus far none of us have any signs of this evil disease. I love you in Christ. Hugs from northern California.
Thank you for the lovely biography of Stella. I did not know she did westerns but happy she won an award. Her son Andrew i remember in t.v. and movies. I loved her in the Poseidon adventure and what a dtamatic death. So sorry she lost her memories. Terrible diseases robbing her so much. All the best Stella from a fan! Just may watch some of her older movies.
She was a beautiful woman, no doubt about it! Yeah I liked that movie " The ballad of Cable Houge" good movie! Anyhow, great documentary Jerry, as always! Peckenpaw made a lot of great movies, woooo a 70,000 dollar bar tab, Geez!! Love you Stella 🌹
I didn’t know this about Stella Stevens. And I never knew she grew up in Memphis but mention of all the Memphis schools and churches made me pay closer attention. Thanks for all the memories from the Bluff City.
I had forgotten about her. I had no idea where she was. And I had no idea her condition. Very moving. Saddened by my discovery, but I remember all the movies she was in that I saw through. And her Playboy layout was this 14 year old's fantasy. Thanks again Jerry.
