Mon, 20 August 2007  August is the month of the year when Valentino is remembered and memorialized officially at Hollywood Forever, August 23 2007 is the 81st anniversary of Valentino's passing. This event is once a year, but it is true, Valentino is really the unforgotten star as people are drawn to his gravesite every day, not merely on August 23rd. This August and this podcast is all about the memorials to Valentino, first up, you will hear the 2002 Memorial Service as an example of what exactly happens at the event, secondly, I'm speaking with my return guest Tracy Terhune about his new book Valentino the Unforgotten and about the recent installation of a permanent display dedicated to Valentino at the Hollywood Heritage Barn. Finally, we're talking about the newly released DVD from Flicker Alley, The Valentino Collection. August of 2007 is a month that will be long remembered by Valentino fans, an embarrassment if riches, indeed. Comments[0] |
