    I think I can only remember seeing her in one movie. All About Eve. She wasn't really in movies I favored as a kid.

    Right now The Catered Affair (1956) is playing on Turner Classics, with Ernest Borgnine and Debbie Reynolds. Reminded me of this thread.

    I saw the movie years ago. Critics' reviews were not good, but I liked it. It was different.

    I had the honor to be told -countless times- I look like Bette Davis.
    I remembering being about 25 y/o when entering a coffee shop in Buenos Aires and the owner saying "Oh, God, the Argentinian Bette Davis."
