Jeanne Crain was a stunner....and an oddity in Hollywood - married to the same man for 58 years, till her death.

[@loissimmons6558]

It was not a happy marriage, however, from the mid-1950's on. They filed divorce suits against each other at that time. They reconciled on their 11th wedding anniversary (New Year's Eve, 1956) and the marriage produced the last three of their seven children after that. But it remained a strained marriage and they often lived at separate residences.

[@Baskerville22]

That's a long time to endure an unhappy marriage.

@@erichanson426 There have always been unhappy marriages. It's only been since people (and especially women) had a legal means of getting out of them that people have gone anus-mouthed and talked about how marriages don't last anymore. They'd rather people be forced to stay in horrible/abusive/soul-sucking marriages.

I know quite a lot of Hollywood actresses of the 1940s and 1950s. I didn't know Ms Crain though. She is a striking beauty with sparkling eyes and a very charming engaging smile. And for the first time I had the feeling that she is s. o. who could have played the part of Scarlett O'Hara. With dark hair. Stunning looking woman.

She definitely was a beautiful woman and so lucky to have met "Mr. Right" and stayed married for 58 years. That is an oddity in Hollywood.

[@accomplice55]

Sadly, it was not always a happy marriage; both claimed infidelity on the part of the other, and Jeanne accused Brinkman of abuse. :(

[@bluecamus5162]

All I know is from her Wikipedia entry, but it's obvious she and her husband were Catholic, which is probably why they never divorced. Wiki indicates she and her husband lived apart for much of that marriage, but with seven children, they couldn't have been apart TOO much. The Catholic Mr. & Mrs. Spencer Tracy remained married all of their lives too, but lived apart the last 30-some years of his life while he lived with Kate Hepburn.

[@lllowkee6533]

“The marriage was rocky. In the mid-1950s, Crain obtained an interlocutory divorce decree. Each claimed the other was unfaithful, and she claimed he was abusive. However, they reconciled on December 31, 1956.” [12]

[@ToddSF]

One musical motion picture worth noting that starred Jeanne Crain was Rodgers & Hammerstein's _State Fair_, release in 1945 in color (but in narrow screen 4:3 aspect ratio). (There was a 1962 remake in wide screen.) The film is noteworthy on multiple counts, but one of them is that _State Fair_ was Rodgers & Hammerstein's only musical that was intended to be a film -- it was never presented as a stage musical. (Similarly, they wrote their musical _Cinderella_ for presentation on television, not for the stage.) So I have to conclude that Jeanne Crain could sing, since they cast her for a lead role in a Rodgers & Hammerstein musical film -- the premiere version of that musical -- and they didn't have someone else do the singing for her. Here's a clip of Jeanne Crain's rendition of "It Might as Well Be Spring" from the 1945 film _State Fair_ -- you can hear what her singing was like as well as see what she looked like at age 20 -- possibly even 19, if they did the filming the year before the release. video.search.yahoo.com/video/play;_ylt=A2KIo9gmrA9YW2UARkT7w8QF;_ylu=X3oDMTByZjF2ZHFmBHNlYwNzcgRzbGsDdmlkBHZ0aWQDBGdwb3MDNw--?p=state+fair+jeanne+crain&vid=40d9d4c785fc299493d014db32f2db67&turl=https%3A%2F%2Ftse3.mm.bing.net%2Fth%3Fid%3DOVP.V4863886972a1d7e8fc62c94c33febf77%26pid%3D15.1%26h%3D168%26w%3D300%26c%3D7%26rs%3D1&rurl=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.youtube.com%2Fwatch%3Fv%3DTXMEVTtAZkI&tit=It+Might+As+Well+Be+Spring&c=6&h=168&w=300&l=267&sigr=11bkutf6p&sigt=10qpjueha&sigi=13299j8b4&age=1395337963&fr2=p%3As%2Cv%3Av&fr=yfp-t&tt=b

[@Bigbadwhitecracker]

Sorry to burst your bubble, but Jeanne Crain's singing in State Fair and Centennial Summer was dubbed by Louanne Hogan, who was a member of the famous big band singing group, The Pied Pipers. I know. It's like being told that Santa is your parents.

[@ToddSF]

Mic Mal -- Well, I didn't know they dubbed in Jeanne Crain's singing, but I'm hardly shocked. I've known plenty of films where that happened, such as _My Fair Lady_ where they overdubbed Audrey Hepburn with singing by Marnie Nixon (who did a lot of that for various actresses) and _The King & I_ where the same singer overdubbed Deborah Kerr. There is a clip of Audrey Hepburn singing "Wouldn't It Be Loverly" from _My Fair Lady_, and it turns out she could actually sing very nicely. The real puzzle is why they overdubbed Rita Moreno in _West Side Story_ -- Rita Moreno sang in Broadway shows and there was no excuse for that. (Of course, they overdubbed Richard Beymer and Natalie Wood, among others in that film.)

[@Bigbadwhitecracker]

Yeah, I never understood the Rita Moreno thing.

I only just ran into Goody's Headache Powder for the first time last year! (I'm 44 and prone to migraines, which is why it was surprising I hadn't before.) Though as it turns out, the Lewallen family bought the formula from the originator, and were the ones who made it famous (mostly in the south). www.northcarolinahistory.org/commentary/367/entry Also, as Mr. Richardson notes (and I didn't notice til now), there was an entirely separate Walter h. Jones (in the 50s) who became a NJ State Senator, who got into battles against garbage collection rackets. (Sayeth Wikipedia.) Which is, if nothing else, ironic. I admit to never having heard of Jeanne Crain before, and this performance has caused me to look for her stuff. Fun person.

[@saran3214]

juliansinger you have to drink a regular coke with the goody powder for it to be really effective. The caffeine helps constrict blood vessels in your head and relieves pressure. Plus the sugar in the coke washes the powder down your throat. It is a common practice here in the south and it will fix your headache. B. C. Powder will work too. Just do not inhale the powder. Inhale, slide the powder in your mouth and take several big swigs of coke. Breathe through your nose until you get the powder down. Best headache cure ever.

I've noticed that Dorothy pulled this camera hogging routine far less as the series went on. I'm up to the end of 1962 in posting the shows and it feels like it's been a long time since I've seen her do this sort of thing. But in the earlier shows it really did irritate me. JustAFocus wrote: "It's kind of irritating that Dorothy, once she knows she has the answer, hogs a ton of boring time on-camera by asking a whole lot of questions that she knows will be answered "yes" -- rather than just getting to the point. She kind of forgot that this is supposed to be entertainment."

Ryan Schroer 1 year ago She was the reason they changed the mystery guest format to one question at a time. americanmanhood 8 months ago I think that Dorothy is unjustly accused of this. I think she no more hogs the camera than any of the others, and at least she is very charming and likeable while she is on, which cannot be said for some of the others who shall remain nameless (Bennett Cerf, John Daly, Bennett Cerf, John Daly, Bennett Cerf, John Daly).

I was puzzled by the woman who made headache powders: when asked 'Is anything added to it?', she answered No. Water must be added in order to drink the headache cure. Perhaps she understood the question to mean 'Is any other chemical or remedy added to it?' and she was proud to say that her powders were pure and entirely made by herself. We'll never know because we didn't see what was in the packets she gave to John Daly and which were intended for the panel members.

That is not how you take headache powders. You pour the powder in your mouth and quickly drink it down with water being careful not to inhale until all particles are swallowed. Better to drink Coke as the suger adheres to the powder. But you do not add water to the powder, like in a glass. Thats how we do it down south.

John looks very tired here - too many mint juleps at the Kentucky Derby the day before, I'd bet!

[@lauracollins4195]

Andrew M - Mint juleps at the Kentucky Derby? Sign me up. :)

Back in those days some men would give a strong and sometimes a hurtful handshake.

70 years ago majority of men had physical jobs😊

Oh yes let me not forget my number 1 woman Arlene Francis

[@butziporsche8646]

Loved her in "Leave Her to Heaven" and "State Fair".

[@MothGirl007]

Steve Allen's hair here is wild!

[@robertholman8730]

@MotherGirl007 That was the style back then called the wave.😊

[@clearfield2009]

Arlene does not shake hands unless it's a famous guest.

[@davidarcudi230]

Awwww. No I haven't got that pleasure

Jeanne Crain has gotten a lot of guff (much of it posthumous) for playing a black woman who "passes" for white in "Pinky." Do you all think that America at mid-20th-century could have "handled" someone like Lena Horne or Dorothy Dandridge--both of whom could *really* have passed--as the central character of this movie?

prior to the radicalization of race relations in the 60s - nobody cared about "appropriated" skin color.

[@519djw6]

@@cbranalli Right you are! (This was kind of a "retrograde" question when I asked it). Things have gotten so crazy in the USA in the last year that I'm elated that I don't live there anymore.

To commenter ANTHONY you,ll notice about those ladys hairstyles by 1951 the longer fuller look of the back was now gone and the shorter but slightly curly style is on most actress,s along with the high eyebrows look.The men,s suit jackets seen 1952 tru 1956 had one of the lapels (usually the bottom one) jut out wider than the top one and by 1957 the thinner look was coming in while double breasted was completely gone by 57.1957 brought in STRIPED SHIRTS for summer wear,black slacks (like in the song of the same name) and plenty of PINK/WHITE -PINK/BLACK STRIPPED SHIRTS LONG SLEVE TO WEAR WITH LEATHER JACKETS!! Check out YOU TUBE for many of those TEENAGE HIGH SCHOOL,TEENAGE RACE CARS,TEENAGE ROCKABILLY SINGERS MOVIES and you will see a lot of those lady,s styles of dress and looks!!! These WHAT,S MY LINE programs sure show the dressing up people made of themselves when appearing as contestents and they sure looked PHYSICALLY FIT!!!!!! and what an EDUCATION the panalist were gifted with as they sure seem to know of the very many occupations of those years:1950s tru the 1960s (WHAT,S MY LINE years)

[@errol-ih4jy]

THATS ONE BEAUTIFUL WOMAN.

[@bebeveritas7306]

Why do the women, especially Aline Francis not shake hand with the normal guests but do for celebrities. Are they snobs? Although in this one they do?

[@libertyann439]

Must have been hard to read some of those signatures!

[@danielfronc4304]

liberty Ann John Daly had the names printed out on the cards he brought out to prevent just that.

So the saying " Bigger than a breadbox", was first coined by Steve Allen?

I'm still wondering what people do with headache powder. Do they put it on their faces?

[@buffbill-t2i]

She was at the roots of Goodys headache powders popular with NASCAR fans

[@dbarker7794]

Drink it down with water or some other beverage.

[@joiefulton4015]

Sells garbage? Something I would have asked as well. Steve should not feel stupid.

[@MrYfrank14]
