Not only was he the king of cool, his acting was at another level, he was a stunt man, a race car driver, a lover of life, a style icon - those crystal blue eyes were as intense as he was. A true legend. Great tribute.
I remember that I was about 10 yrs old, at a motocross race in Madera CA, and Steve was there with his wife , and after the race, everyone else was around his truck, and I knew he was Steve McQueen. He came right up to me and gave me his autograph. He did the same thing for everyone, he was such I nice man. And he's always been my favorite.
I was an acquaintance of Steve. My father owned a gas station in Santa Paula, Ca and Steve lived on the other side of town and frequently hung out there with his friend Von Dutch who was a minor celebrity in classic car circles. Little known fact about Steve was he gave BIG $$$ to charities for disadvantaged youth. People have written books about Steve mentioning his generosity, but I can tell you he gave away far more money than those books say. Steve was by nature a very quite person so he gets no credit for being as generous as he was so I'm here telling you he was. 👍
@@joinjen3854Steve had a very unhappy childhood. He spent a lot of time at Boys Town in Chino, Ca which is basicly a reform school for juvenile delinquents. I'm sure this is why he donated more than just $$$ to such causes. 🙂
@M.C. Smith Yes, but what ever you "heard" about how much he gave remember in reality he gave a lot more. At one time I believe he was the highest paid actor in Hollywood so he had the $$$ to give, but he was so quite about it very few people know. It wasn't like now where celebrities publicists stage photo op's of them handing a check to a starving paraplegic orphan, and then the celeb gets into their BMW and drives home to they're mansion to rest because it's been such an exhausting day.
So glad to see people still remember the king of cool! I still miss him so much. I remember how kind my mother was when she told me he died… I was just a goofy teen. He’s the only person I ever idolized and adored…
@@cbrvo8440 Well, he was a cis-genedered member of the patriarchy. Full of toxic testosterone and vital male potential. That used to be a good thing, but no more.
Great movies! Bullitt, The Sand Pebbles, Papillon, The Great Escape, but as a kid growing up, I always enjoyed the TV series he starred in, Wanted: Dead or Alive!
The one I like the most is from Magnificent Seven: He and Chris have gone up to see the Old Man and talk him into coming into town. "Their conversation would bore me to death!" states the Old Man. "They are farmers, here; they talk about fertilizer and women. I have never been interested in fertilizer, and as to women? I lost interest when I was 85." The camera cuts to McQueen, who's character is Alway interested in women, and this odd expression crosses his face. I can see his thoughts: "lost interest? Is THAT what I get to look forward to??" It's a masterpiece of subtle, non-verbal acting.
@@joinjen3854 That’s interesting, cause I saw a video a couple years ago where they showed that he did 95%or more of the motorcycle parts including being the Germans on motorcycles chasing him!!! Maybe for the scene where he was jumping the fences, but I believe he did most of not all the motorcycle parts!!!
@@AzzKicker-bz1cb yes, Steve did play at least some of the Germans. I worked in Hollywood and they fabricate many back stories! I have no doubt Steve had the skill to do every stunt but insurance would not allow Steve to do that one of him getting tangled in the wires.
@@billknox4121 First DVD I ever bought for my first player, a *long* time ago. I still have it in the bookcase behind me. "Two feature length documentaries", including "Steve McQueen: The Essence of Cool". And other Special Features
Steve McQueen passed away 43 years ago today. He was only 50 and if not for his rapidly deteriorating health at the time, would've made many more great films into the 1980's and possibly 90's. RIP Steve McQueen
His best film was probably The Getaway. He once said Faye Dunaway was the best actress he ever worked with. His best performance was probably The Sand Pebbles.
I liked Quentin Tarantino tipped his cap to McQueen by having Leonardo DiCaprio do a screen test for The Great Escape. Sorry Leonardo. You're a good actor,but nobody can be McQueen.
thought it might include a Bullitt scene, but indeed, my all time favorite movie WAS The Great Escape. Probably watched it near a dozen times.. over the decades since
I am so thankful Steve received Christ as his Saviour due to the testimony of a Christian pilot who flew him to Mexico for cancer treatments. Loved him as an actor, look forward to meet him in Heaven as a fellow sinner, saved by GRACE
How sad you are that you need to hijack dead people behind their backs for your own agenda - no different to the modern CG adverts that put dead stars into their commercial.
The king of cool. Merveilleux acteur tant regretté. N'oublions pas toute sa filmographie à faire rêver. Des yeux inoubliables. Un acteur irremplaçable. ❤❤❤😢😢
I heard a story about that lunatic Keith Moon. Apparently he lived next door to Steve McQueen in LA and kept driving a motorcycle through Steve's garden fence.
@@paintegrity. Absolutely his best performance.I was at sea and met an old AB,I asked him what was the best time,best job he`d ever had and he told me `The China station between the wars,what he described sounded just like the film on board.
Steve McQueen first and foremost an irreplaceable movie star he was the king of cool and a great actor a quiet guy he also made good pictures and he is probably thought about now long after his passing certain actors leave a mark and a lasting impression steve McQueen was one of these types RiP steve McQueen you were great besides cool ❤😂🎉😅😊.
It just occurred to me that the two greatest vehicle chases in cinema history belong to McQueen. The motorcycle chase in The Great Escape and the Mustang/Challenger chase in Bullitt. The latter has been omitted from this video for some reason.
I remember watching Bullitt in a movie theater when it came out. We got there early but, because McQueen was so popular it was already half full, so we found seating in the middle of the theater. I recall during the chase noticing that as the Mustang hit the stair-step like cross streets everyone moved up and down in their seats. Watching the screen it felt like you were actually in the car.
The charger R/T had more H/P but Steve was the better driver . Still may be the best car chase scene ever and the original bullitt Mustang sold for close to 3.5 million recently. The other stunt Mustang was scraped after the movie was completed and 2 were used as well as the Chargers
In the Great Escape, Steve McQueen posed as German on motorcycle chasing McQueen. The final jump over the fence wasn't Steve McQueen. It was his stunt man which earned the Great Escape an Oscar for film editing.
Love Steve and miss him. Met him on the set of the getaway in el paso at the oasis drive in in ne el paso. On a lighter note ,here is a drinking game. Watch a McQueen movie, and every time he makes a kissy face, take a drink. 😂
@@maureencora1 He did that movie when James Garner was doing Gran Prix which he wanted to do. He didn't talk to Garner for over a year he was so mad he wasn't chosen for the part.
thank you Rob, I too on occasion have meet celebrities and they are some of the nicest, not full of self, boasting and such. Did political jaunts with some back in California for McGovern, took a beating 49 states for Nixon to 1 for Mcgovern and thats the way it was.. like watergate didn't matter then. for sure but i was young and full of myself and being in the draft, didn't minced words back then, found that sometimes need to find it again.
I always thought that one of Steve McQueen's best movies was "THE SAND PEBBLES". RATHER THAN HALF OF YOUR VIDEO BEING THE THOMAS CROWN AFFAIR, A CLIP OR 2 FROM SAND PEBBLES WOULD HAVE BEEN NICE.
I bought the box set off Amazon....Bullet being the coolest one...Hunter is another he was in, bounty hunter based on real person. ...as well as Getaway...all awesome
I still love this guy. The Sand Pebbles is my favorite McQueen film or sometimes Bullitt is. Still love The Great Escape, but never much of a fan of The Magnificent Seven.
Paul Newman, McQueen and Brando were the most True Blue Bisexuals you'd ever meet. Jimmy Dean was into pain. When they did an autopsy on him after his accident, they discovered cigarette burns all over his body.
"Took me a long time to learn my elbow from a hot rock. Right now I belong back in that border town, sleepin' on cotton sheets. Think I'll ride back to that village."
@@paragkirloskar633 My pleasure Bro. I really miss that era of movies. I guess that I'm showing my age but I still believe that it was a great era of movies. There really weren't much special effects at all. They were just simple quality movies.
After the motorcycle jump, my friends and I made ramps in the Bronx to jump our bicycles. One older friend took off from up the block on a 10 speed Schwinn. Hit the ramp, went as high as the top of a coal truck and his front tire came off while up in the air. And I love telling kids who the toy, Lightening McQueen, is named after.
He had terminal cancer and when he went to have tumors taken out, he died of a heart attack. Yeah, the cancer was killing him, but it was the heart attack that did him in.
MYTH: Steve ride that motorcycle during the jump scene in The Great Escape. FACT: It was the same stuntman that drove the car dangerously in Bullit. When Steve is driving, the rear view mirror is on his face. When the stuntman is driving, the mirror is angled off the driver's face. THE KING OF COOL! ❤️
Steve McQueen was many things to many people but what he would want to be remembered as, first and foremost is that he was a child of GOD! Steve died a born again CHRISTIAN, and Sammy Mason was one of his best friends, and he led Steve to JESUS! This gives me so much joy, l want to BURST inside! Steve found that everything in life fell short of his expectations. As he pointed out what king Solomon said ''Vanity, vanity, all is vanity''. l am SO thankful that Steve is in the arms of his SAVIOR! Hallelujah, and MERRY CHRISTMAS to everyone! :D

Forget Brando, Nicholson, Olivier. The Greatest Actor Ever was Yul Brynner.
Steve McQueen...one of THOSE actors we'll never forget.
Even though I am not American, I LOVE America, and I feel that the America Steve McQueen represented is rapidly disappearing. I hope I am wrong.
McQueen was an absolute legend. He didn't need to talk... just his look was enough! 😅😁👍
The Lord knows what he did that's good enough
Amen!
I miss him.

That look! I get the feeling he wasn’t acting. Ready to kick some A at the drop of a hat.
Seriously.
Steve McQueen. How can you not love an eternal iconoclast like that?
Fantastic movie icon he brought the screen alive , he sadly passed before his time who knows what films he would have gone on to make
My two favorite Steve McQueen movies: Papillon and The Great Escape. IMO one of the greatest action stars ever.
Entertainment at it's best, thank you Steve.
Great movies! Bullitt, The Sand Pebbles, Papillon, The Great Escape, but as a kid growing up, I always enjoyed the TV series he starred in, Wanted: Dead or Alive!
I loved a little gem of his a Romantic comedy with Natalie Wood called LOVE WITH THE PROPER STRANGER.

Thomas Crown Affair................with Faye Dunaway.........brilliant...
Love that first clip. One of my favorite Steve McQueen clips. What a smart A$$. Thanks for posting
Great job. I really loved The Great Escape and The zThomas Crown Affair and The Magnificent Seven.
My favorite scene with Steve McQueen is definitely the motorcycle chase from "THE GREAT ESCAPE"!
Much of that was his stunt double, Bud Ekins, because the studio would not allow him to get tangled in the wire.
Gotta say Bullitt was my favorite

As a man of a certain age I was raised on Steve McQueen and Sir Thomas Sean Connery
That was a time, wasn't it?..There were heros..
1930 They Both Were Born That Year with Robert Wagner, Rod Taylor, Clint Eastwood, My Uncle O'.
His best film was probably The Getaway. He once said Faye Dunaway was the best actress he ever worked with. His best performance was probably The Sand Pebbles.
Received an Oscar nomination for Best Actor for his performance as Jake Holman in The Sand Pebbles.
Papillon was his best movie and performance.
I'm 57 and growing up Steve was my first screen idol and still is..
King of Cool
Papillon!! Outstanding actor 👌❤, how do I look?...and !? Nevada Smith!!!
A fabulous actor: "Wanted Dead or Alive" to "The Hunter"
Hope to discorve his first movies soon on blu-ray éditions for France
I'm 68 years old. For me and a lot of others of my generation Steve was The Man.
The best actor that ever lived?? nope...just one of the coolest dudes to grace the silver screen.
I liked Quentin Tarantino tipped his cap to McQueen by having Leonardo DiCaprio do a screen test for The Great Escape. Sorry Leonardo. You're a good actor,but nobody can be McQueen.

I remember a western movie "Nevada Smith", I was 14 I think when I saw it. He died when he was only 50 of pleural mesothelioma.
Nevada Smith is great. The scenes of his fight with Martin Landau are awesome. McQueen jumping around on a fence!!! Amazing!
He had terminal cancer and when he went to have tumors taken out, he died of a heart attack. Yeah, the cancer was killing him, but it was the heart attack that did him in.
A true "Best of Steve McQueen" compilation would include footage of him being a raging alcoholic, beating his pregnant wife, and cheating on her.
He was a good actor....and a very mean and angry man.

Super mais malheureusement trop court pour Steve McQueen
In The Great Escape, Steve did all his own stunts on that motorcycle. Guy was definitely a man's-man.
The fence jump was done by his buddy, and stunt double, Bud Ekins
Bullitt, the quintessential Steve McQueen movie.
POW camp, no first line MG 's used to guard, old obsolete models mainly, even captured enemy, Mg-42 etc needed more at the front
No way to tell, but it could have been an MG34. Very similar to the newer MG42.
I like most of his movies but
" Bullitt " is and always will be my favorite
