Trailrider #896 Posted May 27, 2022 Share Posted May 27, 2022 Hedy Lamarr was not only gorgeous, but a genius as well. She and a male friend came up with electronic frequency skipping that is the basis for all sorts of stuff, including jam-resistant guidance systems, secure communications, and a bunch more. She never got paid by the U.S. Government for any of it! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sedalia Dave Posted May 27, 2022 Share Posted May 27, 2022 Angela Lansbury has been captivating audiences for seven decades in roles ranging from sassy salon singer to sharp-witted sleuth. With equal ease, she’s played a princess, a pirate, a witch and a wench, and triumphed as not only a beloved movie star, but also the belle of Broadway and the queen of primetime television.

Another of the greats. My favorites of hers are "The Court Jester" as Princess Gwendolyn and as Em in "The Harvey Girls" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hardpan Curmudgeon SASS #8967 Posted May 28, 2022 Share Posted May 28, 2022 In San Francisco back in the early 70's, two of my friends and frat bros heard she was going to be performing and managed to get tickets. "Why?" I asked. "Because she's a treasure who won't be here forever!" was the reply. I so wish I'd gone with 'em. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Decent movie in my opinion, and I really like Barbara Stanwyck in comedies. But casting her as Dixie Daisy was, in my opinion, wrong. People that go to a strip joint do not want to see girls built like this. They want to see girls built like this. Talk about your "suspension of disbelief".

Alpo Posted May 28, 2022 Share Posted May 28, 2022 I like Myrna Loy before she became the sweet Nora Charles. Back when she was playing all the exotic, mostly non-white women. In THE BARBARIAN, she was half Egyptian. And then she was a Chinese girl, as Dr. Fu Manchu's daughter. In Stamboul Quest she was a German spy during World War I. You tell her anything she wanted to know, wouldn't you? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rip Snorter Posted May 28, 2022 Share Posted May 28, 2022 The other thing made obvious from some of these, were the skills of some of the studio still photographers. They took far better posed and candid PR photos than most seen today. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Alpo Posted May 28, 2022 Share Posted May 28, 2022 Back in the sixties, when she was still cute, before the plastic surgery. Betty, Betty, and Norma. How to Marry a Millionaire. This I had never considered. The girl on the right is Jodie Foster. 14. Playing the hooker in TAXI DRIVER (Iris? been a few years). The girl on the left is her big sister, who was her stand-in for the scenes that were a little bit too risque for a 14 year old to be legally doing.

I think she realized that a film once in a while was not worth as much as a long running series, with residuals for syndication. Women just don’t get as many roles as men.
