  1. Here's a song from a black and white musical from the forties:

     

    "Don't be a down-hearted fellow...

    Though your heart is breaking in two;

    Smile through all teardrops,

    Maybe someday she will listen

    And kiss you, and whisper,

    'I miss you, I need you, I do'..."

  2. That looks like Barbara Rush in "The Black Shield Of Falworth"...She was married to Jeffrey Hunter, who played Capt. Christopher Pike, not Captain Kirk, in the premiere episode of "Star Trek"..."The Cage". He also played Jesus Christ in "King of Kings", with John Wayne as a miscast Roman soldier.

  3. Thanks...

     

    In 1959, according to her autobiography, this actress was talking with Kay Kendall in London when Kay said something about seeing her doctor and thinking that "she bought the building". Months later, after the actress went back to the states, she found out that Kay had indeed bought the building...

     

    Question: Who was the actress and what does the English phrase "buying the building" mean ?
