Really, this whole concept has been a no-brainer from start to finish, loads of fun, but lots of work! It should be interesting to see how far it goes!
Welcome to another Saturday night in The Dungeon!

These 25 actresses make it a cool 100, so if you figure they have an average of 30 movie and TV appearances each (and I think that's an estimate on the low side), you only need to watch about 3000 TV shows and movies to catch up! Better get crackin'!

Stefanie Powers was cute as a bug, but the spy-fi fad was reaching its saturation point in 1966, and The Girl From U.N.C.L.E. may have just gotten lost in the crowd.
ReplyDeleteGail Russell was married to Guy Madison ("Wild Bill Hickok," "The Beast of Hollow Mountain"), and she co-starred with John Wayne in a couple of movies. There were rumors that she and Wayne had a fling, which is about as close as the Duke ever got to a sex scandal.
Janice Rule was sexy, although I think she aimed at being more of a serious actress than a babe. She seemed out of place in a Matt Helm movie. I usually liked her even when she played unsympathetic characters, although, in The Ambushers, I liked Senta Berger better. But then, with the Helm movies, I always liked the villainesses better than the heroines, anyway.
Ursula Andress has the distinction of being in the first James Bond movie (Dr. No), a Bond spoof (the 1967 Casino Royale), and she was mentioned by name in Ian Fleming's novel On Her Majesty's Secret Service.
There was a 1989 biopic starring Charles Dance as Ian Fleming. Near the end, a middle-aged couple walk out of a theater after having seen "Dr. No." The wife says that the movie was not as good as the book. The husband says, "I rather liked it, actually." The wife snorts, "You liked that girl on the beach!"
As much as I'd like to throw out more info, I just don't have the time! Good Stuff TC! Thanx!
ReplyDeleteEven though I'm sure the movie gets a bad rap, I've always like Janice Rule in THE SUBTERRANEANS. Her character is maybe the closest thing to a completely stereotyped beatnik in the story (she even does a spontaneous interpretive dance at one point).
ReplyDeleteAnd of course I've always liked Quinn O'Hara as the nearsighted femme fatale (!) in GHOST IN THE INVISIBLE BIKINI.
Quelle belle galerie crounchy !
ReplyDeleteMerci Claude! Also, thanx for the "She Trinity" link, I had never heard them before. Great track!
