Yes to everybody, it is Charlotte Henry in Alice in Wonderland, and no, I was not teaching a class today. I am still on a one-year sabbatical and am milking it for all it's worth.

The two women made a movie together (The Grissom Gang) after the divorces from Stacy.

Yes, before Kim Darby.

OMG .. I saw True Grit at Radio City as well .. was that you behind me cracking your gum?

Yes, if you look closely, you can even see a few cigarette butts on the floor.

You are ever so close. Actually, it's Joan Crawford, being punished by her evil mother.

The child of professional dancers, Kim Darby began her career studying dance with her father as well as Nico Charisse. At fourteen, she was granted special admission to Tony Barr's acting workshop at Desilu Studios on the Paramount Pictures lot. He wrote later that it was her remarkable openness, honesty, emotional readiness and focus that convinced him to bring her into his adult class. These traits have become the signature of her work in a career that has now spanned a period of more than forty years.
As a teenager, she earned her first acting roles in episodes of television shows including Mr. Novak, Dr. Kildare, The Eleventh Hour, Star Trek, and The Fugitive. Her reputation continued to grow with more work in film and television.
She was twenty-one when producer Hal Wallis saw her in an episode of Run For Your Life and decided to offer her the coveted role of Mattie Ross, opposite John Wayne's Rooster Cogburn, in True Grit. The classic western earned Wayne his only Oscar and made Kim Darby a film star.
Ms. Darby went on to star in a variety of productions, receiving a Golden Globe nomination for her work in Generation, and an Emmy Nomination for her role in the Rich Man Poor Man. Her feature films include The Strawberry Statement, The Grissom Gang, Better Off Dead, and Mockingbird Don't Sing; television movies include The Story of Pretty Boy Floyd, Don't Be Afraid of the Dark, and Enola Gay.
Still acting, since 1990 she has also been teaching her craft and is asked to give seminars at universities and film schools throughout the country. Her own training and lifelong experience over the last four decades has provided her with a rich perspective as well as a diverse collection of skills which she enjoys sharing with enthusiastic students.

And here's how she looks now ... simply great!!!

I think Lee was the best Dracula of all. He exuded evil and sex appeal at the same time.
-
I think Kim Darby should be star of the month!!!!!!
Here she is with some unknown actor:

Montana Belle

and Rosie O'Donnell will play the Sydney Greenstreet role ...
-
Actress and film (if you know it immediately, hold off and give some others a chance):

Ah yes, Invasion USA ... what a bomb. At least Ms. Castle looked good in it, and the title is the answer to the trivia question "In what film did both women who played Lois Lane in the Superman TV series appear?"
-
This question has already been answered in the *Information Please* forum.
-
Wow, there's the photo, obviously cropped in my book. Nice job, Fred.
-
Yes, I did read that about Dracula.
-
Those youtube clips go up to part 9, but there must be more.
Odd that the photo with Lorre and Albers includes Veidt, since he was not in the German version (which is odd in itself). I guess he was around the set.
-
Nicely done.
-
*F.P.1 - looks like the German version.*
Correct! How did you manage that?
