He was 63, not 66 when he died of uremic poisoning, not lung cancer, and it was in June, not August!

Lisa Gaye had a perky southern drawl, coupled with a bubbly sense of humor. Her collaboration with the makers of Death Valley Days commenced in 1960 where she got to play a variety of characters that included three types of Indians, plus a gypsy, Spanish girls and cardsharps. Death Valley Days was an anthology series exploring themes of the American West. It's legacy as a true classic is undeniable. Interesting hosts included Stanley Andrews, Dale Robertson, Robert Taylor and Ronald Reagan. The series boasted of numerous talented guest stars, acting and landscape, but best of all were the true live narratives of people who lived there in the 1800's showcasing their adventures, successes and failures and how life was lived in Death Valley. Lisa loved doing this show despite its hardships, but everyone pulled together like a family. Most episodes were shot in Kanab, Utah and the Apache Junction, Arizona. The heat was unbearable at 126 degrees in the shade. These episodes were true-life dramas and a part of history which also made it more important. Lisa's episodes included : The Million Dollar Pants [the invention of the Levi's jeans]; General without a cause [As a brave woman soldier never giving up despite the torture she endures]; Eagle in the rocks [Bandit Murietta's lady love]; The Other White Man [with darkened skin as Healing Woman to a Red Indian tribe]; The Captain Dick Mine [a beautiful squaw who avenges her husband's killing]; Green is the color of gold [a young bride and her husband living in the wilderness in search of gold]; The Gypsy [strong role telling fortunes along with the trials and tribulations she has to ;put up with]; The Rider [a lonely widow and her son desperately need a man to help them run their farm; very touching with great performances by Jesse Pearson & Lisa ]; Lottie's Legacy [a school teacher, who runs a double life as a cardsharp]; Tracy's Triumph [a strong woman who waits for three years for her husband who was incarcerated for a crime he did not commit and how he proves his innocence in this very touching true-life drama].

The actress of stage, movies and television dabbled in painting and studied sculpting at Every Woman's Village in Van Nuys, California. Her sculptures were artistic in look and functional in design. She majored in bust-shots of Egyptian Pharoahs. Lisa also loved to write poetry and her poems were often read on TV. Besides being an expert swimmer, pianist and linguist [she spoke 5 languages] ,her hobbies included a collection of cat figurines in all shapes and sizes from around the world. These figurines were made of jade, wood and metal. She loved cats, but was allergic to the live kind as they made her sneeze. In an interview she once remarked: I think of all my cats as girls. People tell me that I have cat eyes, but I don't believe that women are as catty as men."

Dawn Wells hardly looked like a movie-star. Yes, she had youth and doors open when girls are young. As far as the talent quotient goes, I am of the opinion there was little or nothing. No i didn't see Gilligan's Island, but I got to see Dawn in two TV episodes: (1) Tales of Wells Fargo: Kelly's Clover Girls, where she runs away from a dysfunctional home to join a wagon of women that cater to men's needs in this old West tale. With gorgeous Lisa Gaye starring as Sunset, I guess Dawn was sadly sidelined. Again in Surfside Six's "Circumstantial Evidence", she hardly had two shot scenes sitting with a group at a table. The episode starred Lisa Gaye and Lee Patterson. Both were 1961 releases. In this upload, the first three screen-grabs featured Mary Ann Mobly and not Ms. Wells.

Not to nitpick, but the lead role of Julia was played by the late Diahann Carroll, another groundbreaking actress.

She just starred in a movie that was nominated for an Oscar called American Fiction. She was also in Deadpool. She's still doing all right.

I can't forget her !!

I love Leslie Uggams in everything! Roots, when she played Kizzy was phenomenal work. I also love her as Blind Al in Deadpool.

She is a good actress, yet her off screen shots show disgrace while claiming to be for equal rights. Her need is amazing grace forgiveness in His friendship. prayers for her and all to come to the truth, amen. thanks

trading places,neighbors,blues brothers,ghostbusters,great outdoors,nothing but trouble,coneheads.did he write 3 amigos? all classic treasures

PPlleeeaasseeee - get rid of the inane, irritating, and obnoxious elevator music.

Dan Akroyd is a brilliant comedic actor. Love him in SNL, Neighbors, and more. ❤

It's Tootsie, as in book, not toot.

So, was Geena Davis in "Thelma and Louise" and "A League of Their Own"?

In the late 50's and early 60's, what tipped the scales in Lisa Gaye's favor were a variety of roles that came from Warner Bros., where her versatility was put to the test. Warner Bros. needs to be thanked profusely for keeping Lisa busy with one TV role after another. Warners, during this period, was touted to be the largest studio for promoting young talent and making stars out of them, overnight. Troy Donahue, Connie Stevens, Bob Conrad and Diane McBain fit this bill of players who became overnight sensations. The landscape of cinema & television was evolving, with a significant increase in well-crafted screenplays for roles centered around women. TV serial makers were now embracing narratives that spotlighted female perspectives. TV Westerns and Detective serials seemed to rule the roost. Lisa had a very tight schedule commencing from the last quarter of 1959 with plum assignments in Bourbon St. Beat [The 10 % Blues and False Identity; 77 Sunset Strip [A bargain in tombs, Paper Chase, The Desert Spa Caper, The Lovely American ]; Hawaiian Eye: Year of grace, Manila Assignment, Talk and you're dead, The Doctor's Lady ]; Surfside Six: Circumstantial Evidence and Green-bay Riddle] plus top Westerns like Cheyenne, Wanted dead or alive, and Bronco. In all the aforementioned series, Lisa had plum parts in totally 19 episodes. The roles may have all been glamorous, but the characters were diverse and Lisa's range was not only enormous, but she was peerless with her unquestionable artistry in full evidence. In Bronco: One evening in Abilene she played the protagonist as a tortured woman whose fiance was gunned down. To avenge his death, she uses her charms to lure various men to get rid of the killer that brought her heartbreak. A femme-fatale to the hilt was essayed by her in this one-hour episode that starred Ty Hardin and Tony Young.

Mayim Bialik is a monster lol.

You might want to take out those pics of Katharine Hepburn you have mixed in there. And get some better AI.

"King Creole" is - in my humble opinion (and that of others of course🤣) - by far Elvis' best film. The cast, the photography, the music - everything fell into place. ❤

Elvis' performing the song "Trouble" stands out from when I first saw the film.

Now this was a beauty. An Amazon. Few has come close to her devastating good looks.

While her training at Universal International during the years 1953-55 offered a wealth of information in critiquing plays and movies, Lisa did get a golden opportunity to play the daughter's part in 'The Rose Tattoo', earning favourable reviews, at UI's Inside Talent Contest. Comedies on television did not offer much by way of acting, but they did provide the much-needed exposure. From 1955 onwards, television did offer many diverse parts with Lisa becoming a professional in femme-fatale parts. Since her gorgeous looks oozed sex-appeal, she was often cast in the TV-noire parts in episodes from famous TV shows. These include: State Trooper: The Widow Makers; Mike Hammer: Dead men don't dream [looks marvelous]; Walter Winchell File: Exclusive Story # 31 [gorgeous as an actress, whose husband is framed for murder]; Bourbon Street Beat: The 10 % Blues and False Identity [she never looked more beautiful]; U.S. Marshal: Backfire; The Lineup: The hot shot robbery case; Markham: The Country Mouse with Ray Milland [a fiery nightclub entertainer] and the True Crime series 'Unsolved' as a top mafia man's squeeze. In Bold Venture: Mama George's Horse's hat [aka The Black Pearl Bongo], she played a Brazilian dancer who smuggles a black pearl concealed in a camellia to a customer during her torrid dance sequence.

terribly overrated individual and actress......

"she attended Yale"..... yeah, so do the Janitors. She is long past her 'best by date' (if she ever had one) , is really nothing more than a second rate actress and talks thru her nose.

Lisa, in 1959, was so inundated with work, she began to shed weight due to exhaustion. When How to marry a millionaire folded, Westerns just fell into her lap. These included Cheyenne, Black Saddle, Bronco, Sugarfoot, Pony Express, The Californians. 1959 also marked the end of The Bob Cummings Show, but Lisa was cast in a couple of episodes before the show called it a day. Lisa was a linguist and was great with accents. She did so many French girls, she was afraid of being typed. But, she also did some Italian, German, Spaniards and even an Armenian [in Have Gun Will Travel: Helen of Abajinian]. Lisa was considered a new-generation performer, who had no great awe of the movies. "Yes, I did like to do a feature film now and then as they were good for prestige. But TV shows always offered better content and more versatility for the characters she portrayed. Television was seen by thrice the number of people who watched films. In her illustrious career, she played many parts that included: a Viceroy's daughter, a cardsharp, a nun, an actress, a TV star [The Walter Winchell File: Exclusive Story # 31], a gypsy, a ballet dancer [Passport to danger: Vienna released December 1956]. a French model [Collette DuBois in Love that Bob]; a credit-card thief [Vive La Credit Card], 4 different types of Red Indians, an Algonquin princess and on and on. The list seems interminable.

He was a lucky man he had all the beautiful women

I wonder if Bettie’s hair inspired Alex Toth to create Gravity Girl from Galaxy Trio and Tara from the Herculoids with similar hairstyles…

Give him this:He was no hypocrite.

You mentioned he had a bad temper, still not mentioned. Now bored can't be bothered to watch the rest.

I'm sorry I had a very bad day not as bad as ur narrative don't misunderstand me plz the pictures and the contradiction is awful! Like running in different directions inside a circular motion.

I didn't know they made a movie about Harlow

For years I debated with myself whether Alien or Aliens was the superior film. Then Scott went and did Prometheus. Beyond being stupid and inane in it's own right, it actually managed to subtract from the quality of Alien, by killing off so much mythology and mystery.

Carl Reiner was a wonderful comedian, a genius. I used to watch Show of Shows was hilarious. Sid Caesar, Howard Morris, and Imogene Coca did kits that I treasure. Thank You for the laughter and memories. Rest in Peace.

so they chosed beautiful people and wrote a decent compelling and realistic storytelling, plus pushed the technology of the era to limits, to make it look great even by today's standarts, because casting attractive people for a movie somehow is a bad message by today holliwood fake morals, i believe if they hired a diverse and lame and gay girl and also made her a ww1 pilot and thimothee chalament as deconstructed charles rogers, and a POC richard arlen and they would espect people would go to see it because the "modern audiences" want to see themselves in film...

WTH is it with the wobbling of the image in the video? I can't watch that! Bye!!

His work influenced me all of my life.

if you cant even be arsed to say giger's name correctly wtf would i watch this past 2 minutes, FAIL

Too many errors - again.

I don't understand why you show unrelated clips?

Legendary, yes. Forgotten, hardly. Not forgotten by anybody who has seen it.

You couldn't get the clips of the film in english?

it was such a good film. Glad you posted this. I don't think this film gets talked about enough.

Lisa Gaye mastered an eclectic collection of dance forms; she was the epitome of poise, charm, style and grace, all rolled into one. She used her dancing skills not only on stage [The Merry Wives of Windsor and Darling I'm Yours], but also in films and TV outings like David Rose & His Orchestra, Hawaiian Nights, Ain't Misbehavin, Passport to Danger [Vienna], Have gun will travel [Helen of Abajinian] and Ten thousand bedrooms. The film Rock around the clock and it's attendant media blitz shot her into the stratosphere of world cinema, anointing her as the Rock 'N Roll Queen and registering especially in England, Europe and Asia. Reviewing the film Variety remarked "The film is a strong showcasing for Lisa Gaye's beauty and talent as a dancer from which she may emerge a teenage favorite. Her terping is excellent and that figure the clothes display commands added attention. However, she didn't let the film's stupendous success go to her head and remarked "In the movie biz, where you are going to meet a lot of rejection, you have to believe in yourself fundamentally and unequivocally, to learn to navigate yourself through choppy waters. Nothing is permanent. It's all impermanence . Don't overly believe the good stuff or the bad stuff. It's all in the flow.

Has-been!

Stanwyck's role in Baby Face where she had been prostituted as a teen and then used sex to make her way to the top was practically autobiographical.

3-D prints survive, I saw it at UCLA in the early 2000's, it was great, particularly in the underwater scenes

Loved this movie. I was only 6 when it was made but I saw it many years later on TV . Suspenseful plot and wonderful story. Surprise ending. Must be seen by anyone who loves drama and suspense.😊😊😊

Oops, I never watched this TV show All I saw was Jed Clampett pretending to be Barnaby Jones at the time . my bad ..

One of all time favorites. I watched this movie once about 15 years ago with my young daughter and my nieces and nephews about 7 in all ranging in ages from 9 to 15 they all loved it. Whenever we're all together they always talk about that movie and how much fun they had watching it. A true Classic.

Having to leave Universal International literally broke her heart. The studio system of training youngsters was falling apart and many of the youngsters were retrenched. Armed with all that she learnt at the studio, Lisa was ready to challenge the world and its obstacles. The Barskin Agency took flight and handled her career with the utmost interest. They saw in her a beauty that was very young, barely 21, and ripe for top stardom. One of her very first TV assignments was as a ballet dancer [natch] in Cesar Romero's Passport to danger: VIENNA. This was followed by many parts on television that included: Jim Bowie [Trapline & Spanish Intrigue]; 3 appearances on Burns & Allen, It's a great life [The lady & the painting]; The Whirlybirds [Aerial Circus]; 3 appearances on Matinee Theatre [episode titles unknown]; Cavalcade of America, Science Fiction Theatre: Are we invaded & Gravity Zero. She was inundated with TV work in 1955 when Bob Cummings liked what he saw and offered her a recurring role on his show Love that Bob. Her first appearance on this show was as the French model, Colette DuBois in the episode "The Girl from France". Fluent in French, the role as the French model was tailor-made for Lisa. Shortly after this, movies beckoned with a starring role in the blockbuster 'Rock around the clock" playing a dancer with choreographer, Earl Barton, and the rest, as they say, is history.
