Yes, Lane, that's a great line! Hollywood can be so fickle. It's a shame that some go on to great success, while others fade away much too soon. And many times it has nothing to do with talent. Mari Blanchard should have enjoyed much more success than she did. Not fair at all. By the way, a few days ago I mentioned Julie Adams in the list of heavies. Actually I only remember a couple of roles when she played someone other than the nice girl. I seem to remember her in "Mississippi Gambler" as being sort of a negative character. And also in "One Desire". It was Anne Baxter who was the more appealing character. Terrence.

I remember Mari Blanchard well. The Encore Westerns channel recently showed "Rails into Laramie", a movie she did with John Payne. The last thing I saw her in was a small part in "McClintock."

This discussion seems to have come full circle, since we were talking about Dale Robertson a while back. Mara Corday starred in a Western with Dale called "Day of Fury." It's really quite interesting. In this one, Dale plays the bad guy who tries to take over a town. He's so charming that he influences a lot of the townspeople Jack Mahoney is the good guy. Also, Ms. Corday developed quite a friendship with Clint Eastwood during their Universal days, and when he became a big star,he used her many times in small roles in his movies. Terrence.

ZaSu Pitts was in "The Thrill of It All" with James Garner, who was in "Victor/Victoria" with Julie Andrews, who was in "Torn Curtain" with Newman. Next: Celeste Holm

Well, Lane, you never stop amazing me! I didn't know that the Claire Trevor character in "Woman of the Town" was a real person. It's interesting that you said that she was a singer, because Ms. Trevor actually sings in the movie. It's a scene taking place in church, and she sings "The Holy City." It certainly sounds like she did her own singing in it. And to add to my amazement, there aren't a lot of people who remember Mara Corday. I guess the reason I remember her so well is that she appeared in a number of Westerns that I like. She even made it to starring roles, but not much happened with that. She went on to star in some sci-fi movies. But I dont think she had many regrets. After all, she ended up marrying the handsome Richard Long.

Jimmy Durante was in "Jumbo" with Martha Raye.
