Mary Castle

She was envisioned my Henry Cohn - Columbia Studio Boss as a replacement for Rita Hayworth. Mr. Cohn was against the idea because she looks very similar to Miss Hayworth. Here is my only picture that I have of her.

I provided wiki link ... for your reading pleasure.

Rita Hayworth in the mid 50's

Both her and Mary Castle looks some similarities - but not by a lot ... but some people do see it.

Apparently she did not replace Miss Hayworth ... that honor went to Kim Novak who co-starred with her in Pal Joey along with Frank Sinatra.

Rita Hayworth in 1953

These photographs were taken the time when she did SALOME back in 1953. These two are Kingme's personal favorites ...

Hi Erik,

Actually, Rita and Mary Castle became very good friends and fooled poor old Harry. He wanted a feud but the girls didn't play it that way...

Short Affair in Trinidad Special - Part 1 of 6
Kingme's Semimential Favorites

These three photographs were taken before Affair in Trinidad got started and many of her friends wanted to have a welcome home party after spending a miserable marriage to Prince Aly Khan. She tried her best to put her past three years behind her and she most of the past three years getting full custody of Princess Yasmin her daughter from him; 2-3 legal battles from her divorce, and getting back to full swing of things in America.

I consider the years 1949 to time that she started production work in Affair in Trinidad one of her most toughest that she had to overcome and so forth.

Top Photo wih Glenn Ford ... and this gown in my opinion is my 2nd favorite gown that she wore in her Hollywood Career. I just love the beauty of this unique gown that Jean Louis designed for her to wear in this movie.

So Elegant and very stylish indeed.

I'm a big fan of these type of photos ... Joe (MongoII) sometimes (most of the time) post those too and I marvel at them too ... and one of my goals is to try to get more of these in the future.
