"The Year of Rudolph Valentino" Trailer

Rudolph Valentino died one hundred years ago on August 23, 1926. In an effort to celebrate the life of the Italian mega star, the Golden Silent Films Podcast is dedicating its sixth season to Rudolph Valentino.

With that in mind, we are spending 2026, the centennial of Valentino’s death, paying tribute to the man, the myth and the legend. Rudolph Valentino was truly all three of those and this season on the podcast, we will take you through the fact AND the fiction. Follow his life, fromhis childhood in Italy to the dancehalls of the United States and ultimately the silver screens across the globe.

Each month, we will bring you great Valentino content, from the biographical to various movie breakdowns and so much in between. You’ll journey alongside the legendary lover from birth to death and beyond. Join us to experience the life, loves and legacy of one of the brightest stars Hollywood ever produced.

A huge "Thank you!" goes out to friend of the show Jameson Quinn for providing the voice over for this trailer. Quinn is a talented and creative actor and director and all-around great guy who set the stage for this year perfectly!
