99 years ago today, on August 23, 1926 (July 16, 1926 in the lunar calendar), Hollywood movie star Rudolf Valentino passed away. Valentino passed away Thousands of women sat by the radio, crying bitterly over Valentino's death. The actor is only 31 years old. Over the past five years, his performances in the films "Blood and Sand","The Young King Raye" and "Cobra" have excited them. Aggravating illnesses such as a perforated appendix and gastric ulcer forced him to be admitted to a Manhattan hospital, where he left a few sad last words in slurred French and Italian. A whole generation of women lamented this, and countless hysteria scenes occurred at the funeral, destroying the solemn atmosphere that should have been. Women commemorated him in different ways: Paula Negri ordered 4000 roses to put on his coffin, and another fan shot himself and died. Valentino admirers lined up in New York to pay their last respects to their idol, Valentino's last film,"The Chief's Son."
