Re: GENE TIERNEY - Beautiful.
Hi Erik,
The lady with Bruce Cabot is his wife, Fran... She was an actress too, but I can't recall her name. She later married a French diplomat in the DeGaulle government and entertained lavishly in Switzerland and Italy. She and Clare Booth Luce were noted for their 'hostessing fame' in Italy. She was a sort of "Perle Mesta of Rome" in the 60's...
I think(???) that's Ed Judson behind Rita...

You are right that is Ed Judson ... thanks for the additional comments and I will note a record of that Larry. Thanks for sharing it.Vecchiolarry wrote:Hi Erik,

Re: GENE TIERNEY - Beautiful.
Always recall the line from the MASH episode where Alan Alda, referring to Gene, says how he loved her overbite.
Ditto!
For some reason I always saw a slight resemblance between Gene and another Jean: Peters.
Just watched the tape I recorded (yes, I still use VHS for recording, dinosaur that I am) of BELLE STARR. What a terrific Western. Gene was wonderful and, of course, kudos as always to Dana and Randolph (and the always entertaining Chill Wills). A big treat for me was watching those Warner Brothers "bad guy" stalwarts Joes Sawyer and Downing playing despicable as usual.
I really hope this gets released onto DVD soon. Sentimental fool that I am that final shot of Randolph Scott peering out the window really got to me.

Re: GENE TIERNEY - Beautiful.
Here is another Gene Tierney Favorite
of Mine
I have about 30-50 images of her in my collection ... I usually get them from friends who collect her and I enjoyed getting them and at the same time I give them extras of Rita Hayworth for them to have. This is one romantic picture of her in that gorgeous nightgown that she has on.

Re: GENE TIERNEY - Beautiful.
I've always wanted to see her in Tobacco Road.

Two Photos of Gene Tierney in Leave Her to Heaven ... 1945
I do collect certain photos for my enjoyment and I have a small collection of Gene Tierney's photographs ... and I always wanted to have these two photos from her movie Leave Her to Heaven back in 1945 of where she played a wife to Cornel Wilde as Ellen Berent Harland.
Of all the women actresses ever wore nightgowns in movies ... I consider this nightgown worn by Tierney as the most romantic nightgowns around. As you all know ... Gene Tierney and Rita Hayworth were great friends and I always consider Gene one of the most glamorous brunettes in Hollywood.
Enjoy these ...

Re: GENE TIERNEY - Beautiful.
In a sloppy old bookstore here in Prospect Heights, Brooklyn, I came across and bought ( for $8.00 ) Ben Ames Williams' "Leave Her to Heaven." I'm gathering the book will go into more detail over Ellen's sick twisted mind. Can't wait.

Re: GENE TIERNEY - Beautiful.
I have the book. It is slightly different but Gene's 'Ellen' is so much more compelling to me than the girl in the book.

Re: GENE TIERNEY - Beautiful.
I hear ya Miss G. I think I'll approach the book with a blank mind ( Holy cow...that will be easy to do ) and I'll keep the movie a movie, and the book, the book. In fact, when I was watching some of "Rebecca" last night, I was actually picturing Gene Tierney as Rebecca in my mind's eye. Gene Tierney can be cruelly beautiful. ( Heck I was in such shock to find that book while I was looking for more Woolrich that I just scooped it up. ) ( How chilling was that Mrs. Danvers?!![u]MissGoddess[/u] wrote:I have the book.

Hey Wen, as soon as I finish I'll let'cha know. But it's going to take me an awful long while. You eat books in a day. Me, I just can't concentrate. I sometimes get aware that my eyes are crossing a page reading words. Yeah...silly.[u]JackFavell[/u] wrote:Wonderful, Tee! I can't wait for the details...

I like the Tumblr shot of Gene. She really is beautiful, isn't she? What a performance.
