house once before i showed you a lot of the memorabilia that his mother debbie reynolds collected well they now have organized it into a museum at their home and i'm going to show it to you today days with jordan the lion it begins right now so right here we have a massive collection of some of the most famous film cameras in history some of the most famous lenses we're going to bypass all that because todd's going to do a little vlog with us about that in another video we're going to explore the museum today this last time i was here it was not put together quite like this but boy have they done a magnificent job now a little back story to this if you don't know todd and kat are related to debbie reynolds and carrie fisher todd is actually the son of debbie reynolds debbie reynolds collected the most amount of hollywood memorabilia in her life of anyone and had it together for a long time trying to put together a museum that through every possibility they tried just could not happen so they ended up auctioning quite a bit but todd is a collector himself kept a lot and we're going to show you some of the great history he has here so we can start here with a couple of carries director chairs carrie fisher princess leia there she is on set that's one of her chairs this one is i believe the chair from return of the jedi believe it says on the back of it [Applause] oh no well yeah that was that was i believe that's what it originally was it was titled that so there we go and there's amazing two paintings of carrie that's princess leia now the camera here this was the warner brothers camera and this was mitchell standard this camera filmed all of the most momentous movies that warner brothers made casablanca the maltese falcon speaking of maltese falcon debbie was gifted one of the maltese falcons from warner right here the resin obviously not the one that they chip away at at the end of the movie but that is one of the actual ones and then right here is debbie reynolds academy award unsinkable molly brown you can see the nomination back here just amazing to see someone actually receive an award she has a lifetime achievement award there's the screen actors guild life achievement award then we have um an award for tammy that is the cash box award right there and the gold record is also for her song tammy and then here we have a pair of the ruby slippers that mgm gifted to debbie isn't that amazing now moving on one of princess leia's actual star wars costumes and then if we move on over here this was originally it's very faded now but this is pink originally and that was debbie reynolds costume that she popped out of the cake and singing in the rain isn't that cool that was not actually a costume that debbie kept the owner of julian's knew that todd would want it and acquired it and made a deal with todd so todd could get it he has almost all the costumes from cnn at least the most notable ones now what i love is that todd has actually put together clips on these screens showing costumes he has he has that blue and white costume here he's got the unsinkable molly brown stuff and a tribute to carrie over on this screen but if we watch this a little bit we'll see debbie's costume in here it was really her first big break seen in the rain they a lot of people didn't want her to be cast in that part but i mean i think she was perfect and then some for awards down here an award for good morning is one of america's greatest movie songs and then singing in the rain award down here debbie and jean and then debbie's actual script that she had bound for singing in the rain isn't that incredible now look there she is in that pink dress right there that is that one [Music] and it just so happens to be next to a bell and howl camera that was a 1917 camera for sna studios in chicago that charlie chaplin once owned [Music] still works todd was showing me how it still works you can still this was an old crank camera [Applause] amazing huh what a piece of history charlie chaplin's camera and i'll explain this light in just a second but down here you can see that's the camera that the was filmed on here he is using it it was one of the very first lights they ever used to film movies there actually would have been fire todd said it was like a spark that went through there that that's how they originally you know originally they only filmed during the day because lighting and then that was the very first lighting unit and when we were over here looking at the warner brothers camera i didn't get to show you the side or anything but if you look down here it actually has one of the warner brothers boxes camera boxes so as we move along this is debbie's costume from i love melvin she played judy and there's actually a picture of her in it down here without the belt and then this was one of the very first costumes carrie ever wore [Music] when she started performing i believe todd said she was 13. and

if not the only one that's signed donald o'connor debbie and gene kelly all the stars of the the main three stars of the movie and right over here we have debbie's golf clubs and tennis rackets because her good pal lucy started getting her into forcing her to participate in sports with her todd was telling me he said lucy would just come over and get her and say we're going to do this and she was so forceful she and debbie didn't really have a choice so this is the guitar the singing nun now she actually bought this guitar herself to learn for the movie and then used in the movie and took it on tour with her so that is the real one from the movie that she would always use and then here this is great she was in a movie with joan collins it was debbie joan collins elizabeth taylor and shirley mclean called diesel broads and this was the clapstick for it right here debbie used to open for liberace they were great friends so that is one of liberace's actual candelabra awards to

thank you todd for sharing it with us all and if you think the collection's amazing already i got a few more things to show you how about perhaps some original props from cleopatra 20th century fox cleopatra starring elizabeth taylor and richard burton yes that is from the movie you can see something is missing from the hands that would have been in there and then this is just absolutely incredible because if you look right here those guard cleopatra's tomb in the movie and there they are the originals how cool is that like i would have them on each side of the entrance of the house you have to worry about the elements getting to them but wow so cool to see something that historic because that movie was a real headache for 20th century fox to time and with that my friends we're
