WHAT GOES AROUND, COMES AROUNDJill St. John, one of the most disliked actresses to work with the starlets due to her selfish and obnoxious behavior, broke her hip recently in a ski mishap in Aspen. Poor baby. St. John treated her Diamonds Are Forever co-star, Fantasy Femme Lana Wood, shabbily during the making of the […]

It’s been awhile since my last blog due to the fact that I had to submit the index to my publisher for Hollywood Surf and Beach Movies: The First Wave, 1959-1969. Let me tell you there is nothing more boring and mindless than composing an index. Ugh! Took a peak at Marquise’s Corner (see link […]

Though she received “Top-of-the-Show” billing Francine had not much to do other than to look glamorous and coo as the amorous sexually satisfied wife of an old geezer on Viagra. The show’s running joke was that York’s moaning and screaming […]
