Yes, I've heard of Rudolph Valentino the greatest lover of our time supposedly. I asked my son who is 26 if he'd heard of him. He had no idea. I knew he was a silent screen film lover. I only recently read that he died at 31 if I am correct. I'd assumed he was someone that people knew for many years. He's the last of the red hot lovers from what I've heard though.
I recently seen photos of him in his coffin and I don't know what people seen in him though. He's definitely gone down in history as a very famous lover, if it's true or not, I don't know. More power to him though for people to remember him all these years even though he died many years ago. You can't help but love him. Cheers to the last of the red hot lovers!!!!

My Grandmother used to tell me about Rudolph Valentino when I was a little girl. I have also seen several of his movies at different film festivals that showed classic old films. Apparently he was quite the thing in his day.

he actually inspired the term latin lover, but to some he was the pink powder puff an inference to being gay/effeminate.
