I only know of her from Halle Berry who played her in a film. What happened to her daughter was so similar to Gabor's. She had hers put in a nursing home.
no one under 30 would remember or know of her. my grandfather passed 2 years ago aged 91.... Dorothy was one of his favorites 💯 he even had her on a LP I used to listen to in the 80s as a child ... 💯🤗❤️ awesome 😎👍 thanks 😊
This is not 100% true. Due to evolving technology, more young people are learning and know who she is. While more older people know of her, not everyone was aware of her or her contributions hence why she was referred to as being a “forgotten” figure in the 1980s, before a biopic was done on her. It is nice that platforms like TH-cam can contribute to more people learning about Dorothy and how she contributed to paving the way for Black women in Hollywood.
Dorothy was a great beauty, great talent. With lovely High features. She had a very sad Life. Would of like to see the mistery movie She was in. Everybody looked so beautiful and well dressed in those days. Love from Italy. She could of been in a lot lovely movies, Epic movies, Bible movies. She had It all. Sad that Hollywood was so backwoods.
to sing.... ,but forbidden to use bathroom ,pool ...not human ,terrible.terrible ..... she was so pretty,talented....legend.better than more than half hollywood stars .
During the decade of the 1950s, there was no nudity in films. Had that been the case, she wouldn't have accepted the role in the first place. The movie was about a slave rebellion led by Tamango. There was no place in the storyline for her character to swim at all, much less swim nude.

I wonder whatever happened to her daughter. That's very sad and the reason being is because she owed back taxes and had to sell her home. The swimming pool incident disgusts me.
I watched a film based on this way back in 2003 & even saw the part about the draining of the swimming pool,,,now, I thought the swimming pool was drained because she had dipped her foot in it,thus 'contaminating' it. Was that not so?
The swimming pool incident, which was in the movie. is just a story, like so many stories that keeps being repeated. In 1972 on the Dick Cavett show Billy Eckstine claimed it was Hazel Scott who had the pool incident. He didn't mention Doroty Dandridge. According to Dorothy Dandridge. After the Miami incident and the Cleveland incident, she would not accept. A singing engagement in a hotel unless she had 1st class accommodations, and the audience was Intergrated.
Nowadays people have to die before they’re called legends. They could be great people, whether they be actors or singers or even doctors to the mechanics to make sure your car is working so you can get to the hospital and eat women to help other people all have to get to the jobs on time. We don’t even really respect everybody we should be? If you have a saw the breakfast club there is a good scene in the nerdy kid was talking about how he longs one project and the high school years how we Mela lamp with a elephant shaped and when you pull the orders are supposed to turn on but it didn’t do it until he brought a Lamp he made but it didn’t work and he was upset. Most of us would love to has strait As but got an f for one class? He was telling them about this and the bad, ot very smart. But when the nerd kid said without Quantum physics of us though and he was bragging about his grades and classes the outcast can look into something that really can we go to him he just said without lamps, we would have no light! Makes you think we all have given the world something to this world.
@@FactsVerse I d k? Maybe something about Italy or actors who perform Italian Characters? Or something to do with Italy maybe engine room I think you’ve done stories on famous gangsters? I mean you Italian gangster. Maybe something to do with ancient Rome or people who made their mark in America and the Godfather of the movie but they did they’re acting incredibly well. . Or how about something about the name and the family but they were traveling west to California to the farm and also I think gold they may have turned to cannibalism because it was a really long trip and I didn’t plan very well I got the name of that famous Family lives in Monument California certain part of it for the family I keep forgetting the name now but they say they had been trying to cannibalism because I didn’t have enough room for everyone
Typical isn't it...COMPLAINING that she got GIGS due to her beauty??? All actresses during this era in Hollyrude got their gigs because they were BEAUTIFUL. What was the TRUTH about her "brain damaged" daughter?? Always a chip on the shoulder, instead of understanding and appreciating her LUCK!!!

Under 30 or not, film buffs would know who she was.
I learned about her when Halle Berry portrayed her
I’m under 30 and I know who she is, still it’s definitely a shame that she is not pushed and publicized like her white counterparts.

I’m proud you are teaching us about the Trail Blazers that came before us.
I'm 77 and I had never heard of her. She was a beautiful lady, so sad she was taken adventage of by
people that was supposed to be looking after her.

Marilyn Monroe copied her
Stephanie Langston. She did not copied her. God shut your damn mouth up

She was the first person to have these role. If you look at Hallie Berry. Remarkably the same. She really a beautiful woman.

The tragedy of darth Dorothy
The film has yet to be released? That's odd.
I watched a film based on this way back in 2003 & even saw the part about the draining of the swimming pool,,,now, I thought the swimming pool was drained because she had dipped her foot in it,thus 'contaminating' it. Was that not so?

Rest in peace
Dorothy is missed. Which of her roles appealed to you the most?
Is there a reason why you didn't mentioned Dorothy Dandridge's affair with renowned director Otto Preminger?
Dorothy Dandridge was also married to Otto Preminger the director. (Love is blind.)🤔
Why wasn't that included???
They had an AFFAIR not married Dorothy wanted to marry him but he did'nt want to leave his wife
He also sabotaged her career with horrible advice on which roles to accept. Wonder if it was on purpose? 🤔😔
She also got PREGNANT by him and was force to have an ABORTION 😞

I don't know about others, but I do know who she is.
I'm 72, maybe that's why I remember her.
I know she had to hide her friend ship with marylin Monroe
