Dorothy Malone

it struck me that after the death of Lauren Bacall, one of Humphrey Bogart's flirtations from The Big Sleep is still alive, namely Dorothy Malone. The same age as Lauren Bacall when Dorothy had a small, but memorable role in TBS where as a prim looking dark haired employee in a book shop, she let down her hair and removed her glasses causing Bogie to say Hello. Unlike the lady taxi driver in TBS, who also flirted with Bogie, Dortothy Malone slowly but surely became a well known actress, working again and this time stealing the film from Lauren Bacall in Writted On The Wind.
Dorothy made some good westerns, some early in her career, some later, like The Nevaden and Tall Man Riding, both with Randolph Scott, [iTension At Table Rock, Warlock and The Last Sunset. During those years she went from an attractive Brunetter into an even more stunningly beautiful blonde.
Other notable films is as Doris Day's sister in Young At Heart, The Tarnished Angels, The Last Voyege and playing Diane, daughter of John, Barrymore in To Much To Soon.
A little before my time, but perhaps her most famous role was that of Constance McKenzie in the tv series Peyton Place, reprising Lana Turner's film role
