just saw her in The Little Girl Who Lives Down The Lane she played a short part but she was great. Such a beautiful looking woman.

[@randyacuna3248]

Alexis always had those beautiful eyes, still attractive.

[@garrettmeadows2273]

Loved Alexis Smith. Her characters were no shrinking violets. They were strong, assertive and didn't need a man--unless she wanted one--to do her bidding. Great actress and classy lady.

[@warrenhoffman2006]

She was in one of my favorite film noir movies, The Two Mrs. Carrolls.

[@Northunderland]

I know its hard to imagine it now, but she would have made a great Miss Ellie. Imagine her and Jim Davis as Mr. and Mrs. Ewing.

[@troydante]

The gorgeous Alexis Smith was married to Craig Stevens who played Peter Gunn ...

Good looking at her age.

[@felix121984]

Canadians are usually pretty good looking.

[@jameskorner6611]

She also won a Tony award(I think)

[@crmay72]

She sure did!

[@Gemini0611]

Good old days.

[@sophieahmed2431]

She was very striking and did a great job as Jessica. A pity she could not have been such a psychopath and stayed around for longer!

[@crmay72]

Yes, she was great on Dallas!
