I've wondered if her religiosity was a reaction to being leered at and pawed over thanks to her, um, assets.marksparkyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06601131043640571653noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7218985326921858943.post-47731954643333713862013-10-27T20:37:38.581-04:002013-10-27T20:37:38.581-04:00Miss Russell and Mr. Mitchum strolled past me, arm...Miss Russell and Mr. Mitchum strolled past me, arm-in-arm, one enchanted evening many years ago.

I read her bio and the whole chanting in tongues thing and some other out there activities gave me pause but she and Robert Mitchum were friends for decades and heaven knows Bob was hardly one to suffer fools so I'm guessing when she relaxed and you keep away from certain topics she could be quite amusing.joel65913https://www.blogger.com/profile/14526657073681774683noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7218985326921858943.post-82046970228944345822013-10-26T11:49:18.513-04:002013-10-26T11:49:18.513-04:00Quell coinikydink!

We concluded that it was due to the fact that, while they had a total commitment to the picture at hand, they shared an underlying lack of desperate need for the whole Hollywood game. Unlike so many of their peers, they both knew that if the studio ever fired them, they'd be just fine doing something else. And it seems like that mutual "take it or leave it" attitude gave a subversive spark to their performances together.Philip Mershonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05641146738422887485noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7218985326921858943.post-22009959058758507632013-10-26T09:40:21.077-04:002013-10-26T09:40:21.077-04:00what a skull!what a skull!normadesmondhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17325110017442011627noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7218985326921858943.post-92060791759055915122013-10-26T08:26:30.776-04:002013-10-26T08:26:30.776-04:00Oh, yeah - she was loony as a tick on a lot of fro...Oh, yeah - she was loony as a tick on a lot of fronts, but I still think that if you caught her on the right night, at the right bar, you could have had a hell of a good time...Muscatohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04657061324487851341noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7218985326921858943.post-67839729132102785942013-10-26T04:28:06.012-04:002013-10-26T04:28:06.012-04:00She was gloriously entertaining, and a camp icon, ...She was gloriously entertaining, and a camp icon, and I adore her in so many of her roles. However, off-screen she was a terribly right-wing person and a god-botherer to boot, so the chat over cocktails might have been more, um, <em>lively</em> than one might expect.
