And what a biography. Talk about a lot of sex. And I wasn't there (wait, that's college, too).

41. No problemo. Got her bio. Clara Bow. Woof.
What a beauty, and a strange life. Her bio is haunting. Check it on Amazon or something. Look at that picture. Hell, look at all of these. Glad I started the thread. Just beauty, and an antidote to The Beast we have to deal with here at DU, at least just a little.

46. Theda Bara, The Vamp.
Never got it, though. I guess it helps to have lived through WWI. For those times, her sexuality was overcharged. Today, it's just kinda silly.

79. True. Considering the Arbuckle DVDs that are coming out, I guess
it's lucky that he's even there.

Though I know the guy who runs the Silent Ladies and Gents site is a big Arbuckle fan. I discovered Roscoe though Buster, which would probably please him no end, considering what a good friend he was to Roscoe.

68. Ahhh...Gene...
Laura is one of all my all-time favorite movies. She's absolutely stunning and charming in that film.

Daryl Zanuck once said that she was unquestionably the most most beautiful woman he'd ever seen. High praise, indeed!

Also, she had a fling with JFK back in the day, well before he was president.
