Rudolph Valentino was a bright star during the silent era and he’s still popular today. Every year since his passing in 1926 at the age of 31 he is remembered with a memorial service at Hollywood Forever. Timeless Hollywood is hosting a Valentino Blogathon in honor of this truly memorable star. Please grab a banner and help spread the word!
When: Sunday, March 15, 2015
To sign up pick a Valentino film or topic to write about and leave me a comment or email me (grabowski@opulent-designs.com). Be sure to include your Name and Blog URL.
Some ideas: Films, his poetry book Daydreams, Falcon Lair, his untimely death and the chaos that followed, the annual Valentino Memorial Service, your Valentino collection.
Due to a short body of work I will allow up to three duplicate posts.

I would like to do a post on the popularity of Rudolph Valentino in Australia. I don’t think it’s something that’s been covered before, but he was HUGE.
