When I think of how the men that Dorothy chose to love ultimately destroyed her, it makes this song so sad ;(

A sad tragedy stardom made her life. But, it is not a unique story. And the actress usually ends up paying a far higher price than the men who crave them.

If I could bring her back to life, then I sure would. I hate it when great singers like her and Florence Ballard leave US so soon. By the way, Florence Ballard is my girl also...her and Dorothy Dandridge are a tie as far as beauty in my book. R.I.P. my two ladies with magnificent voices!!!

Dorothy was great in "Carmen Jones" , but she did not do the vocals. Otto Preminger did not think she could handle the range that the operatic arias required. They were done by a young opera singer Marilyn Horne, who went on to have a long career with, I think, the Metropolitan Opera.

It was very common in those days to dub singing voices. In Westside Story Marni Nixon sang for Natalie Wood and Jimmy Bryant, sang for Richard Beymer. In South Pacific, Mitzi Gaynor and Ray Walston were the only cast members who did their own singing. Juanita Hall originated the role of Bloody Mary on Broadway and obliviously had to do her own singing. When she reprised her role in the movie, her singing was dubbed by Muriel Smith. Unlike these examples, where except for Juanita Hall, I don't think the actors sang at all, Dorothy Dandrige and Harry Belefonte could have done their own singing, but like the two movies mentioned, and a million movies not mentioned, the powers that be wanted Operatic Voices.

I have seen the entire episode, but unfortunately, it was pulled from youtube. The character she was portraying was sad and depressed. That was the whole point of the story. It was just acting. If you listen to the speech she gave in 1963 at a Freedom Rally, where she is introduced by Dr. Martin Luther King, she sounds very exhilarated She had tragedy and triumphs I think everybody's life has roses and stones. According to her manager Earl Mills, the week that she died, she had just returned from Mexico, where she'd signed a one hundred thousand dollar contract for two films. She was to open a two-week engagement at Basin Street East in New York that Friday of the same week. Of course, there were low points as well, but at the time of her death, career-wise, things couldn't have been better.

Show business is a very peaks and valleys business. Marlon Brando was at the peak of his career in the decade of the 50s and was an Oscar winner in 1955. He won the role of Vito Corleone in "The Godfather" in 1972. On the Mike Douglas show in 1975, Mike Douglas asked him what it was about the role of Corleone that interested him. He said the fact that he hadn't been able to get a job in two years. Miss Dandridge was also at her peak in the fifties, because of "Carmen Jones". "Carmen was actually her third staring role, but it's the movie that brought her to the fore. She was the First African American Actor to be Nominated for an Oscar in a Leading Actor or Actress category, To walk the red carpet and be an Oscar Presenter, the same year she was nominated, To grace the cover of Life Magazine, To appear at the Waldorf Astoria in New York, and sign a three-year contract with a major studio, 20 Century Fox in 1955. The contract was for star roles only. She was not confined to roles for African American women. Three of her films "The Decks Ran Red, Malaga, and Marco Polo [never finished because the producers ran out of money] had nothing to do with race She was the first African American actress to make such films. In "The Decks Ran Red" Stewart Whitman kisses her. She takes his gun and shoots him. Pure adventure. In 1958 that was very daring. In 1962 her career was in the valley. In 1965, the week she died, According to her manager Earl Mills,, she had just returned from Mexico, where she'd signed a one hundred thousand dollar contract for two films. She was to open a two-week engagement at Basin Street East in New York that Friday of the same week. Her career was on the upswing again. That's show business.

The three most lovelies in the forefront at that time were Acquanetta (nee Mildred Davenport, Hampton University, Hampton, Virginia. Hollywood didn't do justice by her), Dorothy Dandridge, and Lena Horne. But in her prime Ethel Waters, aka Sweet Mama Stringbean, was also lovely. This is not to overlook those women of color who weren't that prominent in the public eye, e.g,, Suzette Harbin, the beauty tempting a guy away from Marie Bryant who's trying to catch in Lena Horne's "Love," by Ralph Blane, in "Ziegfeld Follies on 1946").

She looked exactly her while in character though, she was a beautiful choice to portray Dorothy. Nobody else would've been better. And they have a lot of natural eerie similarities between one another...Halle was born in the exact same hospital Dorothy did herself in Cleveland Ohio less than a year apart of Dorothy's death, Dorothy was the first black actress to ever be nominated for an Academy Award as Best Actress & Halle was the first who actually won one back in 2002, and a really interesting thing happened regarding Halle supernaturally during the shooting for that film. While it was in production Halle had obtained a dress that had belonged to Dorothy, which she kept in her den. For protection, the dress was kept in paper and plastic. Halle Berry explains the rest: “One night I was at home with a friend drinking tea and we heard all this rustling noise. At first I thought it was just water dripping from the teapot, then I realized it was coming from the room, and the paper on the dress was rattling-all by itself! My friend and I both hauled ass out of there so fast!” “Then other strange things happened in the house while I had that dress. I’d come home and the housekeeper would say she’d heard my vanity chair moving upstairs in my bathroom. And our fridge door would fly open by itself. I’m not kidding. When the film Introducing Dorothy Dandridge was over, I desperately wanted to keep her dress, but it had to go. And then everything was fine.” SPOOKY lol, but intriguing too..

Had to search around because I recognized this performance. This is a short lived show called Cain's Hundred (starring Peter Mark Richman - he's the guy on the sofa with James Coburn). This episode is called "Blues for a Junkman" in which Dandridge plays a drug addict named Norma Sherman. The lady giving her the stink eye is Mittie Lawrence. A follow up role in the movie Marco Polo as Empress Zaire never happened because the movie wasn't completed because the producer ran out of money after bringing together a great cast and shooting some scenes, so this is Dandridge's last, complete acting role.
