Remembering Carole Landis today who spent more time visiting troops during World War II than any other Hollywood star. She nearly died from malaria she contracted while traveling overseas.

I never knew this, thanks, Joe for mentioning it.

I'll always remember Madeleine Sherwood as the no-nonsense mother superior in Sally Field's sitcom "The Flying Nun". She was superb as well as the completely unpleasant, ever-pregnant daughter-in-law in "Cat on a Hot Tin Roof" (1958). Such two absolutely different characters demonstrate that she was an actress of range.

Fernando, among others films I've enjoyed Miss Sherwood in were "Sweet Bird of Youth" as Miss Lucy and "Resurrection" (fine film) in which she was wonderful.

Thanks for the feedback Joe, I have seen neither of them.

I had always thought that Joan had been Dick's first wife and June Allyson his second wife.

[Rita Hayworth]

Joe ... I love that cute picture of LOUISE BROOKS here ... I dig those hairstyles back then ... it is so chic!

Fernando, Dick Powell's first wife was a woman named Maude Maund and they were married from 1925 thru 1927.

Indeed it was, Kingme.
