Valentino Funeral Not Public
Rudolph Valentino left little money at death despite vast earnings, as friend Joseph M. Schenck explains. Valentino spent freely on cars, homes, paintings, tapestries, and other luxuries while carrying only modest insurance. His estate largely rests on profits from The Son of the Sheik and The Eagle and his United Artists salary, with no real estate holdings beyond his Hollywood home. His heirs likely include Alberto Guglielmi's children.
