I have to admit - you had me running scared for a moment, Anon, but no - while there is a resemblance - this is definitely Maria. I believe it's from her 1949 opus Siren of Atlantis.

Many low tuimes in my life have been cheered up by remembering The Dance of the Cobra. And Jon Hall, sans shirt.

Silly me. On first glance I thought it was Mr. Berle, in drag, with particularly good lighting.
ReplyDeleteI think this picture is of Ann Baxter in The Ten Commandments and not Maria Montez.
